- Опубліковано 17 тра 2024
- Dr Cywes shares his approach to the OPTIMAL CARNIVORE EATING PLANBASED ON YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL NOT AN ALGORITHM. Carnivore is unfortunately populated by too much evangelism and algorithm-based eating that plugs everyone into the identical program and SHAMES YOU FOR NOT CONFORMING. Dr Cywes separates myth from fact in this video. EVERY SENTENCE HAS A PEARL. THIS IS OUR PROGRAM AND HOW WE APPROACH METABOLIC HEALTH. NOT JUST WHAT YOU EAT, BUT CHANGING THE RELATIONSHIP AND YOUR BEHAVIOR PATTERNS. Please leave comments.

I’ve lost 500 lbs following a carnivore lifestyle (yes, not a typo). I failed many diets and lap band surgery. My life was consumed by food. Carnivore has given me the “off switch” that I never had before. At 52 years I feel and look better than I did in my 20s. My doctor is amazed and happy with my transformation. People tell me it’s extreme and restrictive, 800 lbs is restrictive. I am finally free of the food addiction I had and living my best life, all thanks to the carnivore lifestyle.
Congratulations, that's phenomenal!
God Bless you and your hard work!
The biggest loser has nothing on you. My God.
So true how carnivore diet gives an off switch❤
That's awesome. I don't know you, but I am very proud of you and your accomplishment.
I had a heart attack 6 years ago and followed the AHA dietary advice and lost a few pounds. My cardiologist wanted me to lose more weight and suggested that I could cut back on my carb intake which sent me down the Keto path and hooked me up with the low carb community. I slowly slipped into the carnivore community and have never felt better. My cardiologist knows about my diet and can only say that it seems to be working. I could care less about blood work, as long as I feel great I'm good and all blood values are based on a metabolically sick population. I' never going back to the SAD way of eating.
Wonderful that your cardiologist had enough sense to suggest low carb to you. 👍
We have to realize too that those blood values like A1C, cholesterol, etc. were set by pharmaceutical companies.
Thats my opinion on bloodwork too, why would we want our numbers within the same range of the sickly population?
What is SAD?
@@bryananderson3772 SAD = Standard American Diet which follows the food pyramid/my plate guide. Both of those are really a plant based diet.
I ask the butcher at my supermarket for beef fat trimmings and cook them up to add to meals. Air fried trimmings are a crispy treat!
I call it carnivore candy....
I would only do that with grass fed beef/fat...
When the cows have a grain diet and are pumped full of shots, all that crap goes into the fat. The meat is still fine, but if you eat a lot of fat it's then worth getting a higher quality cow.
It is so good!! Its like deep fried butter. Yum...
NZ beef and butter are all grass fed
"Don't you take my coffee away from me" spoken like a true health care worker 🤣
Don't take my tea away from me - as a true Brit.
I have been carnivore now for about 9 months . Great success down over 100lb and off most meds . I am thriving , I got all my information from UA-cam. I would like to say this is the best video I have seen by far . Thank you ❤
Not just as a fellow physician and surgeon, but as someone who is into bodybuilding and fitness, you are one of the smartest people I’ve ever come across in my entire life! Thank you for your knowledge, opinions, and everything else you’ve shared. I truly have learned a lot from you.
Same here. Cywes openly shared he was morbidly obese and didn’t know how to get healthy though he unknowingly for years gave his patients near deadly advise. I love how his now carnivore era advise has come from trial and error and not from all his degrees on the wall.
The fact that you can say that you disagree with someone and at the same time say they are incredibly brilliant, says a lot about u as a person and as a investigator. Lots of respect for you, sir!
Thanks once again for an excellent video!! My father in law passed away in his sleep at 87. He wasn’t born in a hospital and never went for any operations. He refused to go to drs or use medicine. He wasn’t carnivore but he ate real food and water (and he loved his sweets). Healthy and fit until his last breath. The health care system is failing us.
by design
Yep, keeping slim and moving and eating healthy for the most part does a lot of good. My great grandma still drives and cooks and lives alone at 92, and gramps at 74 still does physical labour with greater vigor than many unhealthy 25 year olds these days.
But not failing big pharma
Agreed. It's not health care. It's symptom management.
I’m 68 and not a complete carnivore yet. However I grew up drinking whole milk which now I use when I can’t go back to sleep and I love liverwurst. I live in Italy and found a group in sudtirol that makes it and I am so happy that I found it. I think we have to find our own path to healing. Whatever works for us works. It may not work for someone else but no can say that you have to do this or that. My gosh, we have been bombarded by the standard American diet for years. Look at what has happened!
I’m traveling to Italy for 10 days and want to try and stay carnivore. I’ve heard the meat is lean in Italy. Is real butter available at restaurants? What carnivore friendly items are available at most restaurants?
I’ll be in Rome, Amalfi & Florence. I don’t love seafood:(
@@lindseytaylor9758 Hello. Yes the meat in Italy is pretty lean. However you can get ribs (costine) and long cooked meats like osso buco that are fattier. There are restaurants that offer different grilled meats. Yes you can get real butter either salted or unsalted.I don’t go out too much and I usually get some sort of seafood. Talk with your waiter about what is available and ask if it can be cooked in butter instead of oil. If they cook in oil you can ask about them using olive oil instead of other kinds of oil.if you like salami and/or cheese there is nothing better than Italian. It really depends on what type of carnivore foods you eat. Good luck and have fun. 👍🏻

Yes! There are some things we grew up with that make daily living miserable without. Finding a way to include them, maybe at a small amt. I have gone from 4+ coffees a day to 1 and I'm ok with that. I add butter or Wagyu beef tallow to leaner cuts of meat.
Love your reply, but especially your last two sentences! So true!
Dr Rob, I'm from Durban SA. Thankfully your podcasts are soooooooo full of hints, tips and detailed scientific knowledge. I'm 75 and carnivore for 4 weeks now. You are my daily motivation yo keep me on track. Feelings massively better now. Keep up the wonderful motivation. Luv it.BAIE DANKIE hoor.❤
Thank you, Brother! Truth received. Into my 3rd month. Best days of my life. Body, mind, and soul. 56 young, male. I am learning more about the way I choose to eat.

Go blue if you do
@@robertcywes2966 Thank you! Go Blue! 💪✌️
Thank you so much for this video! I am one month carnivore and my biggest confusion has been more or less protein. I have a much better understanding now and feel more confident that I can adjust for my body.
Wonderful to hear that we can be carnivore and from time to time eat vegetables and still benefit 🫶🙏👍🥩🧈🥓🍳
I get specific cravings. They’re usually for onions and bell peppers or only cantaloupe.
My government "weed and gambling, fine... raw milk go to jail!" tells me a lot about their priorities. Thought they represent me?
They certainly don't.
Nothing wrong with Weed, gambling or raw milk 💪
@@copieXD Smoking it isn't healthy. Edibles are a better choice.
Gambling addiction can cause major financial problems.
We don't need milk as adults especially from non humans.
@@EngineersQuest that seems like a problem with the individual and not the substance/activity, dairy on the carnivor diet is very effective if you're trying to gain weight, so does have it's uses.
@@copieXD The first two I agree with. Some people are fine with moderation. Dairy? Humans don't need it after infancy. We only needed human breast milk until we could get the nutrients from solid foods.
I have been only doing carnivore for 6 weeks but am more aware of my body now.. It tells me I need fat at times other times that I need protein. I now know listening to you that when my body tells me I need fat it is because I have had to much protein. Thanks for this video. Annamieke from NZ
It will become even more intuitive the longer you do it.....i have days where i forget to eat, and it doesn't bother me...more than 2 years eating this way now
Keep going!!
Great video tackling the question of ‘how much to eat’ and the ratio of fat to protein. I have NEVER known how much of each to eat, but over the carnivore years I have come to eat twice a day until I am really full and don’t fancy any more of the same ( beef, eggs, fish and belly pork). I do not need to lose weight. I am 63 and post menopausal. Sometimes my brain wants to eat more, but I get full up too quickly😢. The fat seems to be very satisfying.
Yes I'm similar- 70 and not overweight no meds etc but I have never been able to eat big meals and feel full easily. Most of my life I've eaten one main meal a day plus a snack- never 3 meals like friends.
Trying to navigate this carnivore diet despite numerous videos. Dr Cywes has retained helped clarify some stuff for me
A really sensible talk. I dislike some of the obsessive stuff out there. I have autoimmune issues and heading towards carnivore. So far I find fasting up to 5pm has been hugely helpful in terms of gut issues. Lamb seems to be the best for me (trust me to have expensive taste!) Weirdly chicken causes huge issue. I like beef, but lamb makes me feel better.
Thanks for explaining.
I got mutton from a local farmer. Huge beasts, was £180 per ewe including harvest and butchering and delivered chilled ready for freezing. She was worried in case it was "too fatty"! Fat is my friend I said. I also got all the bones, fat and trimmings from the butcher and made lamb broth, rendered fat, etc. I know it is difficult for people without the contacts in the countryside, but with persistence it can be done.
Funny the specific things that we start to like or dislike. For example, I have no desire for pork at all anymore. Strange…
I live on a dairy farm in NorCal & have access to raw dairy, including keifer & yogurt. Yum. My butcher makes warrior burgers for me. That's ground beef w heart, liver, kidney mixed in. Yum 😋
Envious
For those who can afford it, Force of Nature sells ground meats with organ meat included. They call it their Ancestral Blends. While some of their meats are available in a local store here in Milwaukee, I usually buy online because more variety is available there.
@@robertcywes2966 👍
yes! very! lol@@robertcywes2966
You are the first person I have found that does carnivore because you enjoy this way of eating the most. Me too! I don't have an alterier motive other than that, and I believe I can be the healthiest me this way. Thank you for all the info!
Excellent video. I only found you a couple of days ago. Love your no BS delivery. Thanks for all the info.
Your tip on using A1C to check on how much protein to eat is very helpful indeed. Thank you !
What was his tip?
@@deborahmiller1925 I believe it was A1C above 5.2 and triglycerides above 75 . too much protein will convert to sugar and bump out numbers up.
You got me going on to Carnovor way and its wonderful, you are one of my Hero's 👏💪🥰
Really enjoying your videos.
It’s hard to get grass raised, real beef and dairy where the animals aren’t forced to be inoculated. And to get grass pastures that haven’t been weed controlled by herbicides unfortunately.
And the powers that be are allowing and encouraging destruction of perfect grazing lands by buying them up and placing housing or solar “farm” on them. The destruction of perfect lands for growing wonderful food production is happening now at a insane rate. Regards from Oz.
Dam this was solid, especially the part on protein. It's actually quite amazing how fast you get signals from the stomach when you have had enough food . Dr.Cywes is right, its almost always less than we think we need.
Appreciating this channel for some time, Dr Cywes. Loved today's protein advice.
Thanks Rob. Well put.
Thank you! Judy is great!
I keep my coffee and pepper too!! I was wondering about pork???? Belly pork to be precise... I really enjoy it - ok to have every now and again? No medical health issues - Carnivore lifestyle by choice.
Thanks as always for such an informative straight to the point chat!
Enjoy ur pork! Lions love warhogs😊
Belly is excellent for the amount of fat it provides.
Humans aren't lions.@@robertcywes2966
Eat for what works for you. I can eat huge amounts of beef and lamb fat but pork fat makes me feel sick. Pork belly with crispy crackling is a favourite, but I have to cut off much of the fat, yet with beef and lamb I eat EXTRA fat!!!
@@sportysbusiness There are PLENTY of things we CAN do. It doesn't mean we're supposed to.
Great video Dr Cywes, you have taken a load off my shoulders. Currently eating carnivore I am going to adapt my journey to be more like yours.
Excellent! Thank you.
Thank you for all the really good points of clarification. Very helpful! I truly think blood work is important to look at when having health issues and will save time and money getting on the right track in the long run. Thanks so much Dr Cywes!
Superb wee video thanks. Subscribed.
Been on Carny 1 month and still in disbelief at the improvements I’ve had.
The stop eating when your body says so is so true and hard to overcome after a lifetime eating “amounts”.
Twice Ive had the runs from eating too much fat in a meal and both times I felt I’d had enough way before the plate was finished but made myself eat it as I thought I’d not eaten enough based on the amount of food on the plate.
Dankie vir jou potgooi. Hier in Suid Afrika is ek gelukkig omdat het die kans het om wild te jag in die Ooslike Provinsie, en hulle wei op die gras velde van ons land, geen dip middels of medisyne nie.
Hoe maak ek kontak met jou. Soek ook van daai vleis😊
Ai man! Wild vleis bly my guns telling. En kaapse kreef en galjoen...droom ek weer
Soek na lowfeld soulfood vir die beste biltong en droe wors
@@robertcywes2966 Ek is nou al lankal lus vir lekker biltong, maar die plekke waar ek kom is die biltong te droog. Ek gaan bietjie jou raad volg en hulle opsoek. Dankie Dr vir die video.
Nope, hulle is in Amerika en ek is in Suid-Afrika 😂😂😂
I'm so glad I found this video. Thank you so much. Excellent information! I appreciate you.
Awesome video Doc…. Thank you very much for the knowledge you impart. I do like and share and donate when I can. Blessings🙏🏽💪🏽
Great info. Thank you Dr Cymes.
I love your passion...and info.
I love your voice of reason in this space.
Thank you.
Thank you for clearing up the part about dairy. We have raw milk everyday as we have a milk cow and it was the one thing I went back and forth on whether or not to give up. I watched my son, after beating cancer at 1 year old, when we put him on raw dairy just explode in his growth. So I never doubted the benefits of it, just wasn't for sure how to go about it on a carnivore diet. Thanks again for a great video with lots of great information!
Thanks for giving religious objectors an out; your words are kind, and I learned a lot. 🙂
My fat/protein ratio used to be skewed more toward protein, and i wasn't sustaining that very well. I was low in energy and craving carbs. Now, i am eating higher fat - about 70/30 ratio and doing great so far - energy is up, less hungry, and no carb cravings 😌
Precious content. Thanks a lot! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Dr. Cywes for sharing this important video. I just bough Judy’s new book and will be delivered tomorrow ❤
Excellent stuff, Doc!!
This is a cracking view for long term carnivore benefits, thank you.
Dr Cywes thanks so juch for clearing my confusion- new to carnivore. I am eating too much protein not enough fat- your emphasus on this point of carnivore is a lightbulb moment. Thank you. Also been stressing over my love of cheese and milk- now I can relax. Love your no BS approach. Im 70 not overweight no medications or illness ( except in remission for lymphona 3 yrs) just wanting to avoid all the problems I see in my other friends ,same age and older. Thanks again
Love the how the way you describe what are carnivore is ..👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Size òf portions so important. Thank you for bringing this up.
As a Lactation Consultant I love your explanation of breast milk and breastfeeding. Great touch on feeding breast milk in a bottle. So many women pump and feed now.
I think this is my new favorite doctor.
I have a feeling I’m eating too much protein…Looking forward to my follow up appt. with Dr. C next week to discuss my labs. Very thankful I have you in my corner!!!
Have you ever listened to Professor/scientist Benjamin Bikman on the amount of protein a human should consume Particularly in older adults?
@@Crimepaysaskapolitician which video is that?
@johnrecker in most of professor Bikman's videos he speaks on the importance of protein consumption for adults. But he also speaks extensively on Insulin and blood glucose. These things he's devoted twenty years of his life studying. The amount of protein can be quantified.
@johnrecker Also Dr Paul Mason speaks on the importance of protein. Both men are brilliant.
I believe Prof. Bikman is speaking at Dave Feldmans Citizen science foundation fundraiser in a couple weeks in Vegas. I look forward to his presentation.
I'm now well informed and immensely satisfied thank you
Awesome video with a lot of clarification. Thank you.
You make a lot of sense, Doc. I've shared this video with my students. I shall give it a very favourable review. Cheers!
Excellent. Glad it resonates
What a great, informative video. Thank you!
So many things put right and the weight loss is a bonus 💖
Bravo!!!
Enjoy your podcast 😅thanks
Brilliant
man ive been carnivore for a little over a year and can say ive never been tempted at all - just people that are paying attention to their old way of eating are affected with temptation - not once and will remain carnivore for the rest of my life💪💪💪👍✌🖖
Thanks for another great video with some awesome content. What is the best way to up-regulate the lactase enzyme for those who have trouble consuming dairy?
Start slowly
Thank you Dr. Cywes. I was wondering why my B.S. was still elevated when I didn't eat carbs. ❤
I love your scientific explanation for what you expound! The carnivore diet is what saved my life!
Thank You for injecting sanity into the Carnivore lifestyle discussion. As a four year follower of this approach, I am frankly disgusted with the constant and crazy strict rules and zero defects approach of the UA-cam carnivore influencers especially around the protein craziness.
Carnivore evangelism is nearly S bad as veganism😊
Thanks for sharing your personal carnivore info! I've been doing more strict carnivore for this last year which included increasing protein. Just had bloodwork done, and my BUN went up to 26. I'll try lowering my protein and upping my fat to get it back down to normal range. It's fascinating to learn the ins and outs of bloodwork. I also have osteoporosis though it's been stable for the last 2 years since I started keto then carnivore as well as doing weight training. Both my primary care and the endocrinologist I just saw are pushing Fosamax or Reclast. I have been resisting which is frustrating for me and for them, lol.
One thing you could do is start resistance training with weights. It would be beneficial for your osteo and your protein requirements would go up so much you may not need to tweak your macro nutrients anymore. Just some food for thought.
@turbobros_online1561 I appreciate your suggestions. I take a combo cardio/weight training class 3x per week, plus Pilates. And I walk 3-5 times per week. I eat around 120 grams of protein, which is lower than what I hear recommended, 1 gram per ideal body weight. So, I guess my body can't process that much. I'm 66, so maybe my age has something to do with it.
@@csstudio3648The 1g/lb is overly simplistic. Science has found that for most people, 1.2g/kg is sufficient and for high level up to 1.6g/kg. Ultra marathon runners might need up to 2.2g/kg to build muscle due to an obscene quantity of muscle breakdown that needs to be repaired before building any more. Muscles are built by tension sensors and not muscle tearing as once thought, and muscle damage competes for protein for building.
@@csstudio3648 Just an idle thought on my part but could it be that you're low in stomach acid? That's quite common as people age. You can simply supplement stomach acid (and bile salts for fat absorption, if need be), if you feel they're necessary.
Thank you, I'll be calling you from Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you so much for this balanced non non-legalistic on Carnivore. The craziness of some people can turn you off because it makes you give up. I like this balanced approach.
Yes, truly. This was refreshing. I am just considering myself 95% meat based. I am still having my berries, peppers, asparagus, greek yogurt. And some days I have no veg or fruit. I cant do the cult style diet lol
Love this video! I'm currently on carnivore for SIBO and bladder issues. At some point I hope to reintroduce veg but, as of now, I feel amazing and the extra lbs shed has been a nice bonus!
Great video yet again
I always appreciate your reasonable, scientific approach. My experience with Judy has not been that - she deletes comments that question her science and is disingenuous. I'll keep listening to Dr Cywes to get reasonable, scientific information when he tells you when he has an opinion.
And I learn from the comments!!! Like all of us...we are students
The reason that eggs are a common allergy is because they are used as a base in most vaccines.
very very interesting, so a person whos jammed up to their eyeballs with vaccines would have problems with eggs whereas someone who has taken very little if any throughout life should have no issues.
Interesting. Though, many people these days have more allergies in general. Studies have shown in animals that higher caloric intake than necessary will make more inflammation and so cause inflammatory responses to foods we eat. Interestingly, we can actually overcome allergies by micro doses of the proteins and by improving the dietary situation. The most common one is a small intake of raw honey causing pollen allergies to subside. It's even been done with fatal peanut allergies to full cure, in some cases.
Thank you. Refreshing video. I dont feel well when my protein intake is high, definitely feel better with more fat. I have Hashimotos and I have heard several times that you should cut dairy if you have Hashimotos, is this true? I cut the gluten a month ago and my allergies have stopped. I love cheddar cheese, greek yogurt and heavy cream. Do I really need to cut these out? I seem to be ok when I eat dairy. I have been eating butter too.
Feedlot beef, non-free range chicken, pork raised indoors, all are deficient in potassium and magnesium. I had never had high blood pressure, genetic probably, but under 110/65 at age 78. I was overweight from the lock downs so started a keto diet. I cannot afford pastured meat and spa raised chicken, etc., although I do try to get cage free or even pastured organic chicken now. Also looking to a bit more sea food. But my blood pressure went through the roof, I had a "small" non-disabling stroke, and while in the hospital they gave me a potassium horse pill and my blood pressure had come down 40 points in about 4 hours! So I use a "light salt" that contains potassium now. I also supplement magnesium, and take a vitamin and mineral supplement--probably expensive pee, but just in case. Cattle are now raised from weaning in a feedlot in some cases these days, and if you ever watch a video of cows gobbling their feed on a feedlot you will understand that they are malnourished, which is where all that white fat comes from, e.g., mostly empty calories but cheap. Rethinking my eating right now after some bad consequences of having "done the right thing."
Can’t see how or why a ketogenic way of eating would cause sky high blood pressure and stroke
@@Susie462The animal are fed a potassium deficient diet. You eat the animals. You end up potassium deficient. Ditto magnesium. The fault is not the meat centered diet, it is the modern cheap way of feeding beef. I can pay $10 a pound for hamburger and get pasture raised and finished beef. Or I can go to the supermarket and pay a lot less. Given my financial position, I go to the supermarket and pay a lot less. Beef, chicken, poultry are all the same--potassium and magnesium deficient, regardless of what they were back 50 years ago. My point is if you go ketogenic you have to supplement unless you buy the pastured meat. Or eat wild caught seafood, etc. Or eat game meat. If you look at the nutrition you will see that current levels of measured vitamins and minerals in your veggies are ALL less than 40% of the 1942 figures which you will likely see on the packaging since the FDA still apparently uses the ancient numbers and you can just use those or go to the expense of measuring them yourself The tomatoes you raise in your garden are probably nutritionally supeerior to the tomatoes in any store. The deficiencies in potassium beyond a certain point cause high blood pressure. Deficient magnesium also causes problems. The potassium in your cells is very hard and expensive to measure and is an invasive procedure--cutting flesh out, etc.The potassium in your blood is only a fration of the potassium you need, and sodium is the other way around .
@@geezerdude4873dr berg had endless videos on potassium
He might be good for you to check out too
@@geezerdude4873 You are not the first person that I heard having heart problems from a lack of potassium on a low carb / keto / carnivore diet. It's definitely something to keep an eye on. Quite a scary experience I imagine... Equally, people who jump into high fat low carb diets after years of eating high carb rubbish foods also don't realise they may find their gallbladders start spitting out stones that were in there for decades, and they promptly end up in emergency with a gallstone attack. There are definitely some precautions to take when trying to eat this way. Provided you prepare, there seems to be many benefits. Just watch out if you are doing the diet and want to binge again on carbs for a night out. You can also hurt yourself that way by shocking your system when your pancreas has been asleep. Can also have a serious consequence! Maybe more so though for those who do extended fasts and haven't planned how to safely refeed themselves.
Almost every single carnivore channel I have watched supports & advocates daily trace mineral supplements called electrolytes. Electrolytes are potassium, magnesium & sodium! I guess u didn't realize carnivore/keto requires daily electrolytes which is basically supplement of potassium & magnesium. Alternatively, Dr C uses liberal amounts of sea salt, which also provides the necessary trace minerals (potassium & magnesium)
Very very good info! Thank you so much. I’ve recently been healing from diverticulitis and went strict dairy free carnivore in liquid form. No pain now and kicked my body into ketosis losing 15 lbs in 10 days. I’ve been carnivore for 3 1/2 years but strayed to many times around the holiday which probably contributed to the diverticulitis along with age. Thanks again and I will be sharing this video 😊
Loving your discussions.Regards JHB-SA.

I learned that I really had to stop plant foods because I developed so many allergies when I developed a latex allergy from professional exposure. 30 to 50% of people with a latex allergy develop multi food allergies specifically to plants. They develop allergies to multiple plant-based foods. Made me so sick! So glad to be strict carnivore. Okay I admit I still have coffee. Going to get off it. I know that I will feel better without it. It doesn't mean I'm not addicted to it though. Carnivore for the win! 🥩
Hi! I highly recommend you watch Dr Berry’s video where he interviews the Iodine expert, Dr Briwnstein.
You’d be surprised to learn the amount of iodine that his research shows/proves is needed to prevent glandular cancers (such as breast, prostate, thyroid, lymph, etc) is far more than the US standard recommendation.
The video is on Dr Ken Berry’s channel and took place only a few days ago.
I hope this helps you!😊
Thanks for the heads up! Will watch that today. I need to reorder my iodine. I do believe it's a worthy supplement
Thank you. Once again excellent info.. thank you. Now, to throw my Ca tabs in the rubbish bin. !
Listening from Lincolnton NC!!
My in-laws live there! We're in Lexington NC. Howdy, neighbor!

HELLO!!!!
Nice. Thanks
Glad I came across your channel today. I have been Carnivore 3 mths lost 20 lbs need to lose 35 more. I started to decrease my inflam frm moon pie face hashi. Able to get off BP med recently. I am interested in the labs to help guide me. I do see PCP every 6 months and labs are done but they didn't do A1C just fasting glucose
Shd get A1c
Omg you are amazing Doc...i wish i found this when my kids were young. Ive got covid atm and not fussed on eating but im used to that as i fast anyway. So not hungry at all. I just wish my immine system was strong enough to fight off the infection.
This was an excellent presentation. I've been saying for years don't avoid the fat, but have been told I'm nuts. I mean everybody knows fat is bad right? The way you explained it was
priceless. I wonder what you think of Ozempic or Metformin even when your not diabetic.
Ozempic video coming up
So glad I found this channel a year ago ,and very proud that you are now my Doctor.
😊
You are very fortunate.
Thanks Doc. Great video.
Thanks for not being evangelical about it. All my measures are fine so I mostly eat meat and 2 veg with a fish or meat salad (avocado and a few leaves) at lunch. I eat nuts daily and drink coffee.
Life is made more joyful with food and I’m not going to deny myself something delicious every now and then. I make bread from scratch with no additives and have 4 slices over the weekend. I’ll have a cheesecake maybe once a month or a chocolate bar and have 2 pieces of dark chocolate every night. No alcohol and I exercise 5 times a week.
I’m happy with that and none of the above is going to knock years off my life. We all die and in the meantime I want to live a little.
Great video-thank you so much! What fish oil supplement do you recommend? 🙏😊🙏
I am in a space, with the carnivore diet, where im drinking coffee when i want to(less and less desirable for me), And i will allow myself to eat whatever i want every 2 months for 1 meal....that 1 "meal" always reminds me why im on a carnivore diet....i can stop at that 1 meal ...even though i know i will feel "hunger pains" for the next week ... eventually i will not indulge in that 1 meal "cheat" at all...i listen to and feel my body....and carnivore is the way to healing and overall best health, for me🙏🏼
Would love to see a conversation with Dr Gabrielle Lyon on the topic of protein.
Gabby works out like a fiend I am not her she benefits from the amount of protein sheets but that does not apply to people like me we have to individualize how much protein we eat based on our needs her needs are her needs my needs and my needs it doesn't work for everybody Gabby is a wonderful human being I know her well from the hard to kill sometimes in Omaha Nebraska
@@robertcywes2966something is a tad askew here. I highly doubt the real Robert Cywes would respond from a different UA-cam account that only has 35 subscribers. It’s probably safe to also say he is more literate than this response would suggest. The message is appreciated though and a valid point. But I think we should allow the Doc to speak for himself.
Think she just did a video last week with Ken Berry
@@anybodyoutthere3208 solid. Thanks. May check it out. I’ve seen several of her discussions on the subject. I think it would be interesting to see a discussion/debate between her and someone opposed to higher protein. Wishful thinking though.
Ironic that directly after ranting about supplements, your ad for ketone supplements appears.
Yeah, if you are on a meat-only diet, I don't see why you would ever need to take 'ketone supplements' 😀
You're right, but give the man a break, if you could earn something extra (next to nothing) with it, you'll do it yourself. Just ignore it.
@@euhdink4501 Ok, I will give him a break 😀
@@euhdink4501 have you a reading comprehension issue? I wasn’t criticizing; I was sharing my chuckle at the irony of the timing between the ad and the content.
I trust him. I used the ketone supplement and had very impressive results.
I agree with all this. I am very much in favor of the carnivore/keto diet I have been on since September 2023. However, after 1 year of treatment with Trulicity in 2022, my stomach-brain signals are damaged, therefore, dietary fat, such as e.g. butter, doesn't easily make me full. I could eat a whole 200 g package (this is how we get it in Poland) and not feel stuffed.:( I need to control it consciously and not with my hormones:( I hope, with time and the carnivore eating, this will change, and I will restore my correct feeling of satiety.
Thank you for this. I have been struggling since switching from keto to carny. I can't stay in keto to save my life. 80/20 f/p I was wondering if it was type of protein. It turns out I experimented and 90 grams of eggs/bacon I stayed in keto. I am going to try pork belly tonight and eggs and do 120grams protein. I have a feeling it is beef kicking me out. I will know tonight. Very curious. I have to admit stevia may be a killer too. I am currently stevia free. This N=1 thing is crazy interesting.
Hi Dr Robert, fully agree with everything you say however I am allergic to eggs so what would you recommend instead? Thank you.
Thank you for being one of the very few low-carb people to acknowledge that even in the absence of carbs, glucose will be raised by overconsumption of protein. This is why I don't trust people like Dr Barry, he absolutely denies it. I listened to that chump for over a year and my glucose levels went up to Type 2 levels consistently both measured by A1C and blood glucose testing strips for which I tested religiously. Unfortunately I have to keep my protein around 90 to 120 grams a day or it will go up to T2 levels. Even if I spread it out over the day, it doesn't matter. All other markers are solid; it's just the glucose that goes up.
If anyone says eat until you are comfortably stuffed, don't listen; not everyone has those satiety signals. I have been doing this for a year and a half, and if I ate until I was comfortably stuffed, I would be a Type 2 diabetic even as a strict Carnivore, yes, it is possible and happens to a lot more people than you realize.
Same!
There's no way , I can eat food until I'll stuffed . I don't feel good if I ate a lot of food.
It can take awhile to get properly fat adapted, some people never get there and give up. Not saying you can eat more protein but if you are satisfied, the chances are you are eating enough. I never eat until I am stuffed, comfortably or not. I eat twice a day with maybe one healthy snack in early evening but I am never really hungry, at least until breakfast time. I am well fat adapted after 4 years mostly on Keto. I can eat some healthy carbs and stay on the edge of keto. Usually with a medium sized steak I will cut it in half and eat over two days. I find I can only eat so much steak at one sitting.
The only time my glucose goes up is when I eat to much lean protein. Fatty meat keeps glucose low.
@@stepheneverhardt4731 I eat at a minimum of 70% but mostly 75% to 85% calories from fat just to make sure I get enough food in otherwise I am probably undereating. It's not the fat content, or leaness of the meat, it is the amount of protein, it is simply just protein for me.
I do butter, yoghurt, coffee, pepper and mustard, some powders aswell (maca and pine pollen)
Dr. CyWes, women have a tough time getting enough protein. But, yes, of course getting enough fat is important, too. My life was mostly vegetarian. So I still struggle getting enough meat protein. 1/2# of Ground Chuck a day seemed outlandish. And, no, I was not hungry. I had to work to up my fat, too. Luckily my body is learning to tolerate more. (I’m 74 yo, was 140# overweight before Keto, which helped me lose 70#. Now Carnivore, which is making many of my health issues better.)
Thank you for yet another outstanding video. I don't like vegetables, never did; so a Carnivore lifestyle was easy to adopt. My problem, I LOVE sourdough bread, angel hair pasta, graham crackers, blueberries and watermelon. So, I'm kinda screwed as those things are really bad for people. I intend to eat some blueberries when it's the right season, but other things don't jazz me enough to break my carnivore lifestyle with. My 3rd of 3 videos on my YT channel deals with much of the reason WHY our medical system is the way it is, so I don't want THEM sticking so much as a toe into my medical world, except for a yearly blood panel to check my success story in following the advice of my fav Carnivore docs. I'm 5'4" and in 3 months went to a couple pounds under my high school weight, some 50 yrs ago. (120, down to 99) I'm wondering if I'm one of those very thin people that should have something, but I don't like the good carbs. I think I'm just going to try and eat more fat and occasionally have blueberries. I'm not carb or alcohol addicted. I was a light weight drinker and have a full-length mirror and am vain enough to be able to stop eating bad things. Oy!
I love sourdough too! I’m hoping I can reintroduce it sometime in the future when I’ve healed my gut(autoimmune) from decades of SAD eating.
@lindseytaylor9758 I think you have sophisticated taste buds and I'd like to compliment them on their good taste in bread. I know...... it's a grain and a carb... so I'm hesitant, but.... I'll try it and see.
Most things I have tried in this latter stage of being pure don't make me feel good. Bummer. Crossing my fingers on some truly well-made sourdough. 😳
If you like sourdough, just have some every now and then (if you can control yourself and not eat the whole loaf 😂) I'm sure there are plenty of carnivores out there with secret stashes of their favourite carb foods that they let themselves taste just to remind themselves they are not in prison. If you are determined to lose weight though, stay away for a while. The weight will come back with bread... obviously. So will all that fluid and the higher blood pressure and blood sugar. So small amounts is key. And as long as you are not reacting to it like those with inflammatory gut issues. Then you might also be better to keep your distance for a longer while. But I say, like an old lover that you can't quite lay to rest, never say never 😉
Dogs are carnivores. They thrive on meat, bone and organs in proper proportions. A small amount of veggies could be fed but not essential. My dogs are 15 and 16 and thriving still on this diet. And they do not need added salt!
Canine / feline diabetes wasn’t a thing until the kibble companies started adding carbs
@gcs7817 Along with many other diseases. IBD is rampant among dogs and cats just like it is with humans. The vets recommend kibble. Yikes. They are clueless about nutrition, just like many doctors.
Dr Cywes what do you recommend for carnivores struggling with digestive disorders? I’m very interested in getting away from supplements and getting all my nutrition from food, but with digestive orders it is hard to do this.
I'd love to see you and Dr. Bart Kay have a debate. The only supplement-type product he recommend is something called Cerule.
Love the taste of dairy, not lactose intolerant at all, but definitely allergic to casein protein😢. Found out when taking a casein protein supplement and within 2 months, my knees hurt so bad I thought I needed replacement surgery. Baking egg shells sounds like a lot of work and I absolutely hate sardines so I take a calcium supplement from Paul Saladino’s Heart and Soil company.
Does A2 milk work?
It's no joke that calcium supplements can sometimes cause calcium to end up in your arteries where you don't want them. (If you believe the studies www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7910980/ )
