The best thing I ever did after around a year on carnivore was to eat pizza, burgers, fries and ice cream over a weekend. Shows conclusively that carbs are bloody awful, all the aches, pains and brain fog returned almost instantly. The headache, runny nose and eyes and muscle cramps took me by surprise however. Definitely a reminder not to eat crap. Haven't felt the need to do it again, and that was a couple of years ago., I frankly don't need the stress and discomfort
So true. I have been Keto since last January and a carnivore since April '23. This year is the first year I have been healthy all winter. When I was whole foods but lots of carbs, veggies and fruit, I was constantly fighting colds and feeling crappy in winter. I would take tons of supplements to ward off illness and never felt very good until summer and sunshine returned. The irony is, they want people to have low LDL. I had low LDL when I was constantly sick. Now my LDL is "too high" and I am super healthy. Makes me wonder if that is the whole idea behind pushing people to lower LDL. Maybe it is to keep everyone sick. 🤔
I’m able to get away with 1 cheat meal every 2 weeks on carnivore and I’m also throwing in 48 and 72 hour fast occasionally but any more than that and I’m definitely feeling the inflammation.
For infants, in the maternity ward in 1984, nurses left newborns without eating for 12 hours "they don't need to eat" so they knew they were in ketosis.
My newborns wouldn’t drink for 12 hours - just natural! Breast milk takes about three days to come in properly. I was fascinated with the statement that human babies are born ‘chubby’ unlike other animals. I hadn’t thought about that before - but it’s true in my experience on our farm. Is this to supply ketones via the fat for the development of our big brains?
@@Beatrice-nx5ld um, not sure how your babies were, but after birth and the first feeding, all of my 3 babies were comatose for a day. Very hard to wake them up, didn’t want to eat. This is normal.
When I'm exhausted from a long stressful day at work, I can feel the effect of consuming fat on my brain. I'll get this calm, content feeling. Whereas if I consume sugar at such a time, I'll first get all hyperactive, then anxious, and then later I'll get crash and feel depressed. I just wish they had butter at work for the late nights
My parents put honey on my soother when I was a baby because I talked too much and they wanted me to shut up. I was talking at about 9 months and it was driving them bananas. As a result All of my baby teeth were rotten. When they realized what they had done it was too late. Fortunately they didn't do that to my little sister.
wow. that is unfortunate. back in my day, the tins of Sunripe Apple juice we went thru was shocking. gave that in a feeding bottle. probably key that my little sister has struggled so much with eating disorders and such. all this busted information of the day. at least humans have two sets of teeth. honey is many times worse than raw sugar, not sure where the obesity patients all figure that gives them some kinda magic pass. the ancient egyptians used to store honey - might have something to do with it. but. they knew about gold dentistry .. and how harmful grains were on the teeth, bones, eyes. not sure when the researchers started to inquire into that historical ‘ why ‘ .. but they didn’t use it to eat. many thousands of types of bees, but the honey bees are rare, prized, they used it to heal. used the wax for art, sealing jars. many discoveries. or .. used it like most of the ‘ natural preservation techniques ‘. they use substances that microbes don’t eat. like. salt. or other competing molds. like the rinds on cheese. sometimes you can eat those. like brie. sometimes you need to remove them. like wax. look up the latest literature the past five or ten years on ‘ medical honey ‘. and ‘ silver bandaids ‘. works kind of along the same lines. medical honey in a bandage stops other types of harmful bits from interfering with the healing process. it is anti-microbial. which is great. but. eating that. an anti-microbial .. your microbes must be all out of wack. trying to attack it. or. well. who can know. just do your own survey. next time you are at Starbucks. what is the body composition of that person … choosing which sweetness. organic cream for me. or black. sugar is a highly refined carb. changes your mouth microbiome. any sweetness. even if you spit it out. your body gets an insulin hit request. that is why bulimia was so difficult to figure out. the carb content of anything you eat, should be super low. totally not needed. overloads the body. the diabetes crowd should be your reverse barometer for what happens when you eat a standard diet. ruins you. 2,500 years ago, they saw a link to carbs flavoring the urine. all this time they figure somehow that if we feed you more of that. you will makeup for how deficient you have become. eating carbs in the first place. shame we drug them to let them eat milder opiates .. that’s what high carb diets are doing to anyone really. doesn’t need to happen. at all. they knew long ago that meats and leafy greens kept those patients healthy. before the invention of insulin. we didn’t really figure all the carbs and starches were so bad .. in 1869 - 1921, since decent meat was available to the middle classes. so. about 30 years to show up as AMD. then. scales up to bonkersville in modern times. when the paupers had zero, they would swipe a fresh loaf of bread. then pass out from the hit to your system. and .. 1869 was the beginning of oleomargarine due to a challenge to find a butter substitute. oh well. you cannot beat mother nature. butter goes back. way. way. way back. at least 5,000 years. humanity couldn’t have existed w/o that bit of magic. from domesticated livestock. city folk didn’t have livestock. maybe we should ditch cats for goats. cats are quieter tho.
50 yr old and effectively falling to bits , blaming it on old age . It’s only since going keto Jan 23 I realised how ill I was , Jan 24 gone full carnivore
@@taylorkernohan in all honesty, at the beginning I struggled with lack of energy, some digestive issues . But having tweaked with fat content , salt and water over a few weeks , I’m never hungry , never take vitamins or supplements, I never track calories or macros , Im in the best shape I have ever been in , gained strength , more focussed , everything has improved . Regular blood test are good , increased cholesterol, but I take that as a positive so no longer worries me
6:51 I ripple with only mildly veiled frustration every single time I hear an 'expert' say 'glucose (from the ingestion of carbs) is your bodies PREFERRED energy source' -- when, in my learning, glucose is PRIORITISED when it's exogenously consumed, to ensure that overall levels do not stay high for long, because it's DEADLY to us in large measure. Gluconeogenesis allows our bodies to CREATE glucous spontaneously when required.
I hate when I'm in hospital (I'm a T1 diabetic), and hospital dietician insists that I eat carbs. Potatoes, rice, and even desert. Made me decide to avoid dieticians for ever more.
I hate it too. From my research I've come to the conclusion that the body uses exogenous sugar first and as quickly as it can because the body wants the sugar out of circulation. Out of the body, so it can go back to fat burning. So basically what you said lol
Yes, hospitals and care homes generally provide incredibly unhealthy food. I feel sorry for people in prisons, God knows what muck they are stuck with.
@@adm58 Where I’m from, the Prisoners & the Guards share food from the same kitchen & the food isn’t great. I’m learning Wing Chun, & my Sifu is a prison guard & so over half of my fellow students are guards as well, they are all overweight, & some of them are very obviously quite unwell. I often wonder what would happen if we were to feed the prisoners a therapeutic ketogenic, possibly plant-free, diet. I feel that a large population of these criminals are committed because they are metabolically mentally unwell, & that feeding them a diet full of protein & saturated fat might restore their mental disorders & help them function normally again in society. And I can’t help but think that this approach might be a cheaper option than the cheap garbage that they feed them now. I think that most prisoners would suddenly start behaving well & so they could get back out into the world so much sooner. The prison guards would benefit from it immensely as well…
Its night and day having carbs versus going zero carb. Its like i’m a different person. Even the light sensitivity goes away. My mood is so different people around me were shocked.
@@p.m.8316 literally one day no carbs the next day my mood is good… my fam would say i know you didnt eat carbs yesterday cause you are all bubbly this morning
My God I can’t thank you enough for this video. I am on my 9th day fast of my 21 days goal and I was already getting lectured how this is bad for me, my body will eat my muscles and organs! I know that was absurd and dumb but that reassuring voice I heard in this clip did me good. Thank YOU 🙏🏻
@@julesfalcone thanks man. I stopped yesterday at day 12. Felt a little light headed so I broke it with an egg. I work with heavy equipments and metal cutters so I didn’t want to take chances. Next time hopefully I will succeed 🙏🏻. It felt great though I’ll definitely try again 👍
Been on carnivore and IF for months from two years keto. I am 67...diabetic 2 and just had lLOWEST AC1 test yet down to 5!! All numbers on target...better than keto numbers. I'm excited...thanks doctors you guys are the best!!
Best workout I experience are when I had been fasting over 24-36 hours and then you hit the gym to the hardest. Remember to take your electrolytes so you feel good throughout.

That's very interesting! Can you describe the effects you feel in more detail?
These doctors are literally life savers for me since I'm able to gather a lot of new and vital information from them related to what would help my son who has Downs syndrome and also some of the autism spectrum disorders. Carbs were really bad for him and he now has a much calmer demeanor and is willing to learn, after just 2 months of cutting down carbs and introducing more meat and fat in his diet It is difficult to fully change to carnivore suddenly without the approval and support of the other family members. Hopefully the difference would become evident to them in the coming months. I'm hypothyroidism and is feeling more energetic after switching to carnivore. No more bloating and have lost a lot of lower abdominal fat which used to be impossible except through fasting for extended periods following which I would get it all back . Hope to see more results in the coming months. Thanks a ton doctors ❤
Two favorite men !! Thank you. Dr. Paul Saladino's followers attacked me bc they said the brain needs glucose. That's bc Saladino promotes fruit and honey 🤮
I’m really glad to hear it from B. Bikman, that you don’t scavenge muscle unless you’ve run out of fat. Many in the body building sphere say otherwise. What happens to antibodies? Never saw anyone talking to this subject except when (V.Longo?) says you can « reset » your immune rections with a 48-72hr fast. Is it possible that lack of proteins causes the body to sacrifice lesser important cells like WBC, NK cells, etc and if so, what happens to immunization status procured by vaccines? Or do the protein maintain themselves 100% by recycling themselves?
@@mark__1971 yes, I've read plenty on it. But you don't need to treat glutamine with DON unless you are trying to actively shrink tumors. I'm referring to preventative maintenance not treatment.
Lookup Matthew Phillips, a neurologist who’s doing great research and helping patients with Cancer. Seyfrieds is interesting too. It’s all about keeping your mitochondria in the best shape. Not eating all the time is key to their recovery and renewal for optimum health (and endurance).
I recall as a child reading that fat can’t get inti the brain, then seeing an advert for cod liver oil with dha which the brain needs… read a paper in 1989 as I recall talking about the three (known at that time) fatty acid transport proteins expressed by the blood brain barrier…
@Kwildcat13There's different kinds of milk. The milk that comes out first is more watery, like a thirst quencher, and the milk that comes out at the end is much more rich and creamy, like a desert almost. I think it's called the hindmilk. This happens naturally in every breastfeeding session.
Neanderthal was mentioned by the guest. Singing my tune. By way of 23and Me, I found I have a large number of these ancestral genes from both parents. So glad I finally found the diet I was ment to eat. Large, beautiful eyes are characteristic for this genotype/phenotype. Notice anything, people?
The argument is not that fructose is good in honey or fruits, but that our body can handle it through the liver and that the benefits of fruits and berries outweigh the fructose, especially since fruits and berries are seasonal and used to be only available for a few months at most historically. Of course this does not translate to eating an apple a day, but maybe 100g of strawberrys once a week. Personally I think fruits and berrys fall in this category of "we ate that for 2 million years, so it's probably fine", they were always available unlike vegetables which require much much more effort to cultivate and harvest. No paleo-human would dig out measly tiny pre-historic carrots unless they were starving, but they were definitely snacking a few raspberries when they found some, so in low dosage fruits & berries should be fine.
This was a good and informative talk. Honey is sugar water but also has many impurities. This can include heavy metals from car exhaust. It depends on the environment that the bees get their nectar to what and how much impurities are in it. City or by the highway honey will contain more undesirable impurities. Honey taste good but is probably the dirtiest form of sugar.
I’d like to hear a discussion over what happens to people on alone. They obviously burn huge amounts of fat but also seem to have no energy and lose a lot of muscle. Is that because of lack of protein?
I’m determined to promote your channel! You should have millions of followers, NOT these @$$ backwards “TH-cam’rs” profiting of the ignorance of the masses 🤦♂️ blatant evil.
Dr. Chaffee, other "TH-camrs" suggested that I reach out to you with this question... I have been eating really low carb for four years now. Carnivore, most days, since Oct. 2023. I've started having symptoms of low blood sugar which prompted me to start checking my levels. Yesterday, it was 88 then I ate dinner. Instead of going up it dropped to 54 at 1 hour after the meal. At 2 hours it rose to 82. The only carbs in that meal was from a few slices of cucumbers and the only reason I ate them was to see if it made a difference as my blood sugar did the same thing the day before. Most days, my fasted numbers are in the 60s and 70s, so I was surprised to be in the 80s. The numbers don't bother me, it's the way I feel when it drops. My head felt like it was going to explode, I felt extremely weak and felt like I was going to throw up. My ketones are on the low side. The highest they've ever been is .7 which has been so disappointing because I feel like I try so hard. Let me add that, about 28 years ago, I was diagnosed with reactivate hypoglycemia and hyperinsulinemia. I was told then to lower my carbs and eat 3 meals and 2 or 3 snacks per day which I tried it back then, but no, I do not eat that way now. Some days I have 1 meal, some days 2, some days 3 - depends on how I feel and my level of hunger...but that's it. I don’t snack...Ever. I felt great when I went keto and even better when I first went carnivore. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!
I enjoy'd your content! I've added it into my public playlist i pass along to my peers whom could use optimizations in their daily driver habits. What they do not know, will not hurt their feelings~ considering someone is profiting from poor health choices as a possible option. If conpanies cared, they'd pull unhealtgy products and replace it with healthy alternatives to avoid the great health adjustment filter possibly incoming.
Great video, and I agree you should both temper your language somewhat. Dr. C is very guilty of bad language in other videos. It just means that you are unable to think of the real words to say.
Love the informative content Doc. I have not been able to get through the first 1-2 weeks of the adaptation phase. The carb cravings are bad but that's a known enemy. I know that I just have to suck it up and grind through. The worst thing is I get extremely angry and aggressive while going through the adaptation phase. I have heard no one talking about this particular withdrawal symptom. These last few times I have stopped because I was having irrational angry outbursts at my family. Any tips or advice?
Low carb = low insulin = low serotonin = high anger. I had the same experience. What helped a lot was taking a gram (1,000 mg) of tryptophan, twice a day , along with 50 mg of 5-HTP.
Breaking the highly processed "food" and sugar habit often should be done avoiding social contact as much as possible, just as one does with quitting smoking. Tell your family and friends that that your are going through a type of withdrawal and are not avoiding them due to how it makes you feel/behave. They likely will give you some space and also be proactive with interactions ... It takes awhile... things will get better.
Ive been trying to reach put to anthony for a bit now. With no success. Ive been doing carnivore for awhile now. With is not working. Ive had chronic lyme for many many years. It seems i may have some version of hyperinsulinemia, pain and pinching in my neck on the right side where vegus nerve is. With never ending popping in my right ear, and in the last 2 years my veins have been itching, burning in hands and feet, most main veins in my hands and feet are dark and visible threw the skin, tons of micro vascular damage threw my face, all joints are popping and grinding, hair falling out, lower back and major hip pain on right side, always amplified after eating, subsides slight about hr or two after eating, but agin flairs up again right after eating. I used to be active in pretty much any sport you could think of. I now enjoy walking, thats the extent of that. And in only 38, i have very little good days and pore quality of life. Im pretty desperate at this point. As no naturalpath, MD, specialist had been able to help me at all.
(7:13) "...grateful that I don't have to focus my career on a theory..." - Is this guy for real?!? Scientific theory is different than mundane, everyday guessing. He should know that.
"Brain bigger than the birth canal" 12:22 is only true for women who haven't spent their entire existence (possibly including the creation of the egg that would be fertilised) entirely in a carnivore culture. The true size of _sapiens_ is much larger than the averages of today. Something a little more anthropological awareness may have prevented you from saying. Still think you're both great advocates for this world-altering movement. I'll let everybody else dwell on the vast array of ramifications that tall, strong, ketone-powered women offer, have fun.
Question? My 79 yr old sister has dementia & she & her husband resist the situation/ In desperation, my niece has reached out to me (ketovore..mostly carnivore 6 yrs) for her own health. she's had a cholecystectomy. Advise please 🙏🙏
I'm just curious why people forget about the Garden of Eden where zero animals were consumed and it was 💯 carbs- raw. I'm thinking that was our original design
According to Gary Breaka the human body after depleting its stores of glycogen will get energy from muscle and not fat. He suggests muscle takes 3 minutes to liquify and fat takes 5 hours. If that is so, how can the body make ketones when it’s cannibalizing muscle tissue.
7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2
My guess is that data is based on a study done on carb-eating people. It's known that eating carbs causes people to not be fat adapted which makes it harder to burn fat - both yours and eaten.
that is because when you spike insulin on a carb diet, it has a long long half-life, so you can't access your fat stores. Insulin inhibits Hormone Sensitive Lipase. That lipase is responsible for freeing up fatty acids and glycerol from triglycerides. so by definition, you can't access fat stores when your insulin is up, and thereby for you to not become hypoglycemic when you deplete glycogen stores, your body has to draw glucose from your own lean muscle tissues. That's the reason.
@@kingketodaily ok… that still doesn’t explain how the body liquifies muscle tissue in 3 minutes and fat in 5 hours? Even if a person is fat adapted the body would have to move the process along a little faster than 5 hours… I would think!
A scientist calling evolution just a "theory" diminishes my confidence in his judgment. A theory in science is the highest level of confidence you can get. It means it has been scrutinized and tested over and over and passed.
They don't say that you only should eat honey and other carbs, they say that if you use carbs for energy, you don't waste fat for energy you use fat for developing fattier bigger brain and other stuff that's made of fat, more hormones, T, etc.
My wife is overweight and been eating only meat for the last 3 weeks and she is not losing weight. What could be the problem? She’s not eating that much and I can’t believe she’s not burning her own body fat. I’m eating tons of meat till I’m stuffed and I’m losing weight like crazy. Maybe she should eat more fat?
Might be what you said - she's not eating that much. If she's just hitting capacity quickly, she can try increasing the fats in the little bit she's eating. If she's still overcoming the portion-control we've all had rammed down our throats, then she will need to overcome and discard the bad info we've all been taught.
Use a tape measure - maybe she's losing visceral fat ? The horrible fat around the organs, is she losing inches ? - otherwise i'd suggest eating more meat and fat... eat until comfortably full! It goes against all we are taught and takes time to change the mindset.
If it persists even with higher calories, thyroid should be checked. It could also be that insulin resistance needs to be overcome which can take longer.
Where is part 2? It’s interesting about fruits. So children’s don’t need fruits at all right? I wished I had these knowledge when I was pregnant with my daughter. She is 3 now. I try to feed her carnivore but it’s a little difficult, because the kindergarten and socialising with other kids .. her dad: candys and chocolate it’s a part of childhood .. 🙄😫😑
No need for fruit. Fruits are made with sugar to be addictive to get animals to germinate and spread their seeds. Plant antioxidants and so on are useless for humans.
Are you saying that as long as the body has fat your body doesn’t use muscle for fuel? I’ve always heard that long fasts 72hour+ your body loses muscle because it’s using it for fuel
I have one question about being in ketosis, if our body prefers it then why does it only take 1 carb meal to take us out of it, but when we're using carbs as our fuel if we have one fatty meal we don't go into ketosis.
Because it switches over to burn up the carbs first and get them out of your system, because excess glucose is toxic. It’s like cleaning house. It can go back to ketones after that glucose mess has been cleaned up.
Switching from ketones to glucose when glucose is available makes sense and is quite efficient. But it isn't like eating a meal and saving dessert for last as if one is preferred over the other. If I have fresh ripe produce growing in the garden and also frozen vegetables in the freezer, I'm going pick the produce in the garden and save the freezer food for another day. Possibly I might even have enough to add to the freezer. Body fat is simply like the food in the freezer .. stored energy for another day.
If your in ketosis does it matter how low your blood glucose levels go. If your blood glucose level drops to say 50 but you’re only eating meat and no carbs and presumably in ketosis, do you need to eat something sweet to get your glucose levels up?
How did the researcher put people to glucose levels lower than 20? If I remember correctly, by injecting insulin. So basically the glucose was transported from blood flow to cells. Basically the same amount of glucose but in another place, which is probably detectable if one makes tissue biopsy and not blood tests. This is not to disprove the carnivore diet, I'm carnivore myself, but this experiment from my point of view proves nothing.
I am interested but I only continued watching because of tha gta 4 theme tune aka the best of the gta IMO im actually leaving this video now to go bounce my skull listening to it
I agree but if the ice age was too cold for the bees to make honey and survive why do they still live today? They didn’t went extinct so probably there was honey in the ice age
@@leemanwrong of course it is. Gluconeogenesis is driven by the HPA axis mainly cortisol. Which suppresses, pregnenolone, DHEA, and progesterone. And glucose is required (via gluconeogenesis), even in the deepest states of ketosis, Dr Bikman said in this very podcast. Beta oxidation and the generation of ketones takes places under a stress state. Consumption of glucose, takes us out of the stress state and activates oxidative phosphorylation, which produces more molecules of ATP per gram of glucose, relative to beta oxidation and glycolysis.
I agree with you. Ive carnivore for 6 months , and i live it and feel great. I started getting back into exercise recently, and i just do not have the stength especially at the upper end , hard core cardio when my heart rate gets up there. Its frustrating. Im sticking with it but i def feel the difference.
Why do you think craving is a healthy thing? Been carnivore for over a year - and free of cravings. I eat delicious meat and eggs until full. Done. Life is much easier without cravings.
@@CalmCowBell Carnivores crave meat... That's why they chase-and have the physical means to do so because it is of vital importance of them. The smell, the taste of meat and blood tells them that is what they thrive on. Our craving for fruit is of the same order. Now we can always wean ourselves from the food we are designed to eat and then actually enjoy foods we're not designed to eat, by cooking, salting, spicing, mixing but all those strategies clearly show we're not really made to eat them. To acknowledge we have sweet taste buds, that the scent of ripe fruit is delightful but then say fruit is poison based on partial observations is foolish.
@@dmloredana Neither are food. You can't compare the natural, vital cravings we have for fruits to the perverse cravings we have for alcohol, drugs and any Franken good.

or .. used it like most of the ‘ natural preservation techniques ‘.
they use substances that microbes don’t eat. like. salt. or other competing molds. like the rinds on cheese. sometimes you can eat those. like brie. sometimes you need to remove them. like wax.
look up the latest literature the past five or ten years on ‘ medical honey ‘. and ‘ silver bandaids ‘. works kind of along the same lines. medical honey in a bandage stops other types of harmful bits from interfering with the healing process.
it is anti-microbial. which is great.
but. eating that. an anti-microbial .. your microbes must be all out of wack. trying to attack it. or. well. who can know.
just do your own survey.
next time you are at Starbucks.
what is the body composition
of that person …
choosing which sweetness.
organic cream for me.
or black.
sugar is a highly refined carb.
changes your mouth microbiome.
any sweetness. even if you spit it out.
your body gets an insulin hit request.
that is why bulimia was so difficult to figure out.
the carb content of anything you eat, should be super low. totally not needed. overloads the body.

I'm about to turn 58, the last day of this year will make 3 years for me. So worth it, keep doing what's good for you!
Congratulations. I started January 6. I'm amazed at how much has changed in 6 weeks.
How have you got on with being carnivore for the last 7 months?
@@taylorkernohan in all honesty, at the beginning I struggled with lack of energy, some digestive issues . But having tweaked with fat content , salt and water over a few weeks , I’m never hungry , never take vitamins or supplements, I never track calories or macros , Im in the best shape I have ever been in , gained strength , more focussed , everything has improved . Regular blood test are good , increased cholesterol, but I take that as a positive so no longer worries me
6:51 I ripple with only mildly veiled frustration every single time I hear an 'expert' say 'glucose (from the ingestion of carbs) is your bodies PREFERRED energy source' -- when, in my learning, glucose is PRIORITISED when it's exogenously consumed, to ensure that overall levels do not stay high for long, because it's DEADLY to us in large measure. Gluconeogenesis allows our bodies to CREATE glucous spontaneously when required.
Excellent explanation
I hate when I'm in hospital (I'm a T1 diabetic), and hospital dietician insists that I eat carbs. Potatoes, rice, and even desert. Made me decide to avoid dieticians for ever more.
I hate it too. From my research I've come to the conclusion that the body uses exogenous sugar first and as quickly as it can because the body wants the sugar out of circulation. Out of the body, so it can go back to fat burning. So basically what you said lol
Yes, hospitals and care homes generally provide incredibly unhealthy food. I feel sorry for people in prisons, God knows what muck they are stuck with.
@@adm58 Where I’m from, the Prisoners & the Guards share food from the same kitchen & the food isn’t great.
I’m learning Wing Chun, & my Sifu is a prison guard & so over half of my fellow students are guards as well, they are all overweight, & some of them are very obviously quite unwell.
I often wonder what would happen if we were to feed the prisoners a therapeutic ketogenic, possibly plant-free, diet. I feel that a large population of these criminals are committed because they are metabolically mentally unwell, & that feeding them a diet full of protein & saturated fat might restore their mental disorders & help them function normally again in society. And I can’t help but think that this approach might be a cheaper option than the cheap garbage that they feed them now. I think that most prisoners would suddenly start behaving well & so they could get back out into the world so much sooner. The prison guards would benefit from it immensely as well…
Its night and day having carbs versus going zero carb. Its like i’m a different person. Even the light sensitivity goes away. My mood is so different people around me were shocked.
My mood has gone to sh*t. Easier to get angry and depressed. Of course I'm only 7 days in but my life feels over.

Good for you. Come back and post how it goes, what you experienced, learned?
@@julesfalcone thanks man. I stopped yesterday at day 12. Felt a little light headed so I broke it with an egg. I work with heavy equipments and metal cutters so I didn’t want to take chances. Next time hopefully I will succeed 🙏🏻. It felt great though I’ll definitely try again 👍
@@mahmoudelraiis That's Awesome. 12 days is a lot.

Best workout I experience are when I had been fasting over 24-36 hours and then you hit the gym to the hardest. Remember to take your electrolytes so you feel good throughout.
That's very interesting! Can you describe the effects you feel in more detail?
These doctors are literally life savers for me since I'm able to gather a lot of new and vital information from them related to what would help my son who has Downs syndrome and also some of the autism spectrum disorders. Carbs were really bad for him and he now has a much calmer demeanor and is willing to learn, after just 2 months of cutting down carbs and introducing more meat and fat in his diet It is difficult to fully change to carnivore suddenly without the approval and support of the other family members. Hopefully the difference would become evident to them in the coming months. I'm hypothyroidism and is feeling more energetic after switching to carnivore. No more bloating and have lost a lot of lower abdominal fat which used to be impossible except through fasting for extended periods following which I would get it all back . Hope to see more results in the coming months. Thanks a ton doctors ❤
Two favorite men !! Thank you. Dr. Paul

I’m really glad to hear it from B. Bikman, that you don’t scavenge muscle unless you’ve run out of fat. Many in the body building sphere say otherwise. What happens to antibodies? Never saw anyone talking to this subject except when (V.Longo?) says you can « reset » your immune rections with a 48-72hr fast. Is it possible that lack of proteins causes the body to sacrifice lesser important cells like WBC, NK cells, etc and if so, what happens to immunization status procured by vaccines? Or do the protein maintain themselves 100% by recycling themselves?
Excellent video guys, thanks again Anthony. We are really enjoying your content and are now on the program. Totally amazing week 7.
gta4 intro music is a interesting choice
Sowell quote is derived from Socrates. Though Socrates explicitly equated it with wisdom.
What about keeping yourself in a moderate ketosis for cancer prevention? I'm intrigued by Prof Seyfrieds research.
Ketosis cut glucose to cancer but not glutamin as a cancer fuel, that is the problem.
@@mark__1971 yes, I've read plenty on it. But you don't need to treat glutamine with DON unless you are trying to actively shrink tumors. I'm referring to preventative maintenance not treatment.
Lookup Matthew Phillips, a neurologist who’s doing great research and helping patients with Cancer. Seyfrieds is interesting too. It’s all about keeping your mitochondria in the best shape. Not eating all the time is key to their recovery and renewal for optimum health (and endurance).
Fasting is best for cancer is what I've heard.
Follow blessings on my journey..he has stage 4 cancer and fighting it with carnivore and fasting
Love Dr. Bikman! I could listen to him all day ❤
I think he’s on drugs in this one 🤣.
Listening 19, February 2024!
Excellent information!! Thanks so much!!
I recall as a child reading that fat can’t get inti the brain, then seeing an advert for cod liver oil with dha which the brain needs… read a paper in 1989 as I recall talking about the three (known at that time) fatty acid transport proteins expressed by the blood brain barrier…
God bless you both for sharing your knowledge for free! You are saving people’s health🙏😊
What can you say about Ben Bickman that adequately describes how brilliant he is?
Wow so interesting that babies enter Ketosis so fast
@Kwildcat13it’s also high in MCTs!
@Kwildcat13 every day I’m listening to these talks I learn a new cool little piece of info.
That’s why babies are supposed to be chubby when born, so the ketones from the fat can support brain development. It’s fascinating.
@@LauraB.335 interesting. Thanks !
@Kwildcat13There's different kinds of milk. The milk that comes out first is more watery, like a thirst quencher, and the milk that comes out at the end is much more rich and creamy, like a desert almost. I think it's called the hindmilk. This happens naturally in every breastfeeding session.
2 very intelligent gentlemen conversing. That's when I listen. Thanks!
Neanderthal was mentioned by the guest. Singing my tune. By way of 23and Me, I found I have a large number of these ancestral genes from both parents. So glad I finally found the diet I was ment to eat. Large, beautiful eyes are characteristic for this genotype/phenotype. Notice anything, people?
The argument is not that fructose is good in honey or fruits, but that our body can handle it through the liver and that the benefits of fruits and berries outweigh the fructose, especially since fruits and berries are seasonal and used to be only available for a few months at most historically. Of course this does not translate to eating an apple a day, but maybe 100g of strawberrys once a week.
Personally I think fruits and berrys fall in this category of "we ate that for 2 million years, so it's probably fine", they were always available unlike vegetables which require much much more effort to cultivate and harvest. No paleo-human would dig out measly tiny pre-historic carrots unless they were starving, but they were definitely snacking a few raspberries when they found some, so in low dosage fruits & berries should be fine.
This was a good and informative talk. Honey is sugar water but also has many impurities. This can include heavy metals from car exhaust. It depends on the environment that the bees get their nectar to what and how much impurities are in it. City or by the highway honey will contain more undesirable impurities. Honey taste good but is probably the dirtiest form of sugar.
Thank you for the rant at the start of this video!!! I have heard so many times how I'm losing muscle!!! Not so!
Thank you
I agree with the diet my only question is: how to fuel for highly Glycolytic sports?
My question exactly!☝🏾
Great info thanks for all you two do !.
does the carnivore diet help with the immune system? i seem to get flu and colds quite often.
Yes!
Absolutely 💯
Yes, very much so. But the number 1 method of boosting the immune system is prolonged fasting!
Carnivore for 2 years, had covid once and no colds, flus, etc. Keto for 7 years before that. I have only been sick that one time in the last 5 years.
thats amazing mate!@@davem4193
I’d like to hear a discussion over what happens to people on alone. They obviously burn huge amounts of fat but also seem to have no energy and lose a lot of muscle. Is that because of lack of protein?
I’m determined to promote your channel! You should have millions of followers, NOT these @$$ backwards “TH-cam’rs” profiting of the ignorance of the masses 🤦♂️ blatant evil.
Dr/Professor Benjamin Bikman and Dr Anthony Chaffee. Awesome.
Hello from East Tx
Thanks Anthony! Just ordered your magazine online. Never thought id buy a Womans world magazine lmao
Dr. Chaffee, other "TH-camrs" suggested that I reach out to you with this question...
I have been eating really low carb for four years now. Carnivore, most days, since Oct. 2023.
I've started having symptoms of low blood sugar which prompted me to start checking my levels.
Yesterday, it was 88 then I ate dinner. Instead of going up it dropped to 54 at 1 hour after the meal. At 2 hours it rose to 82. The only carbs in that meal was from a few slices of cucumbers and the only reason I ate them was to see if it made a difference as my blood sugar did the same thing the day before.
Most days, my fasted numbers are in the 60s and 70s, so I was surprised to be in the 80s. The numbers don't bother me, it's the way I feel when it drops. My head felt like it was going to explode, I felt extremely weak and felt like I was going to throw up. My ketones are on the low side. The highest they've ever been is .7 which has been so disappointing because I feel like I try so hard.
Let me add that, about 28 years ago, I was diagnosed with reactivate hypoglycemia and hyperinsulinemia. I was told then to lower my carbs and eat 3 meals and 2 or 3 snacks per day which I tried it back then, but no, I do not eat that way now.
Some days I have 1 meal, some days 2, some days 3 - depends on how I feel and my level of hunger...but that's it. I don’t snack...Ever.
I felt great when I went keto and even better when I first went carnivore.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
Will insulin raise if you just eat protein and fat? I just watched the full episode and found the answer. Im so happy, no worries anymore!
Possibly technically, have a Google gluconeogenesis
Fats barely trigger any insulin, protein a tiny bit more, then there's carbs and sugars.
I enjoy'd your content! I've added it into my public playlist i pass along to my peers whom could use optimizations in their daily driver habits. What they do not know, will not hurt their feelings~ considering someone is profiting from poor health choices as a possible option. If conpanies cared, they'd pull unhealtgy products and replace it with healthy alternatives to avoid the great health adjustment filter possibly incoming.

Great video, and I agree you should both temper your language somewhat. Dr. C is very guilty of bad language in other videos. It just means that you are unable to think of the real words to say.
I love Ben's work, but you would think that a Scientist would know that a Scientific Theory has been studied and is considered FACT.
*HE WAS FAE SCOTLAND!!!*
Love the informative content Doc. I have not been able to get through the first 1-2 weeks of the adaptation phase. The carb cravings are bad but that's a known enemy. I know that I just have to suck it up and grind through. The worst thing is I get extremely angry and aggressive while going through the adaptation phase. I have heard no one talking about this particular withdrawal symptom. These last few times I have stopped because I was having irrational angry outbursts at my family. Any tips or advice?
Low carb = low insulin = low serotonin = high anger. I had the same experience. What helped a lot was taking a gram (1,000 mg) of tryptophan, twice a day , along with 50 mg of 5-HTP.
Thanks! I'll give it a shot.
Breaking the highly processed "food" and sugar habit often should be done avoiding social contact as much as possible, just as one does with quitting smoking. Tell your family and friends that that your are going through a type of withdrawal and are not avoiding them due to how it makes you feel/behave. They likely will give you some space and also be proactive with interactions ... It takes awhile... things will get better.
Ive been trying to reach put to anthony for a bit now. With no success. Ive been doing carnivore for awhile now. With is not working. Ive had chronic lyme for many many years. It seems i may have some version of hyperinsulinemia, pain and pinching in my neck on the right side where vegus nerve is. With never ending popping in my right ear, and in the last 2 years my veins have been itching, burning in hands and feet, most main veins in my hands and feet are dark and visible threw the skin, tons of micro vascular damage threw my face, all joints are popping and grinding, hair falling out, lower back and major hip pain on right side, always amplified after eating, subsides slight about hr or two after eating, but agin flairs up again right after eating. I used to be active in pretty much any sport you could think of. I now enjoy walking, thats the extent of that. And in only 38, i have very little good days and pore quality of life. Im pretty desperate at this point. As no naturalpath, MD, specialist had been able to help me at all.
Love me some Ben Bikman
Great info!
The lad was in Ninewells Hospital in Dundee, Scotland
I’m here, because I’ve got health issues, and hoping changing to carnivore is a large part of the solution
You will find your answer with carnivore 💯
All rise for Ben Bikman 🙌
(7:13) "...grateful that I don't have to focus my career on a theory..." - Is this guy for real?!? Scientific theory is different than mundane, everyday guessing. He should know that.
"Brain bigger than the birth canal" 12:22 is only true for women who haven't spent their entire existence (possibly including the creation of the egg that would be fertilised) entirely in a carnivore culture. The true size of _sapiens_ is much larger than the averages of today. Something a little more anthropological awareness may have prevented you from saying. Still think you're both great advocates for this world-altering movement. I'll let everybody else dwell on the vast array of ramifications that tall, strong, ketone-powered women offer, have fun.
I'm not starving but I am pretty stinking hungry. Orange, Avocado and Pickled Beets. Not much else left but condiments.

Thank you very much!
I'm just curious why people forget about the Garden of Eden where zero animals were consumed and it was 💯 carbs- raw. I'm thinking that was our original design
According to Gary Breaka the human body after depleting its stores of glycogen will get energy from muscle and not fat. He suggests muscle takes 3 minutes to liquify and fat takes 5 hours. If that is so, how can the body make ketones when it’s cannibalizing muscle tissue.
My guess is that data is based on a study done on carb-eating people. It's known that eating carbs causes people to not be fat adapted which makes it harder to burn fat - both yours and eaten.
that is because when you spike insulin on a carb diet, it has a long long half-life, so you can't access your fat stores. Insulin inhibits Hormone Sensitive Lipase. That lipase is responsible for freeing up fatty acids and glycerol from triglycerides. so by definition, you can't access fat stores when your insulin is up, and thereby for you to not become hypoglycemic when you deplete glycogen stores, your body has to draw glucose from your own lean muscle tissues.
That's the reason.
Why would the body store fat if it couldn’t use it when needed, doesn’t make any sense.
Gary Breaka is wrong.
@@kingketodaily ok… that still doesn’t explain how the body liquifies muscle tissue in 3 minutes and fat in 5 hours? Even if a person is fat adapted the body would have to move the process along a little faster than 5 hours… I would think!
A scientist calling evolution just a "theory" diminishes my confidence in his judgment.
A theory in science is the highest level of confidence you can get. It means it has been scrutinized and tested over and over and passed.

They don't say that you only should eat honey and other carbs, they say that if you use carbs for energy, you don't waste fat for energy you use fat for developing fattier bigger brain and other stuff that's made of fat, more hormones, T, etc.
Is berberine good for you If you have type two diabetes? Thank you Docs
Removing all carbs from your diet is the best thing for type two diabetes.
My wife is overweight and been eating only meat for the last 3 weeks and she is not losing weight. What could be the problem? She’s not eating that much and I can’t believe she’s not burning her own body fat. I’m eating tons of meat till I’m stuffed and I’m losing weight like crazy. Maybe she should eat more fat?
Might be what you said - she's not eating that much. If she's just hitting capacity quickly, she can try increasing the fats in the little bit she's eating. If she's still overcoming the portion-control we've all had rammed down our throats, then she will need to overcome and discard the bad info we've all been taught.
Use a tape measure - maybe she's losing visceral fat ? The horrible fat around the organs, is she losing inches ? - otherwise i'd suggest eating more meat and fat... eat until comfortably full! It goes against all we are taught and takes time to change the mindset.
If it persists even with higher calories, thyroid should be checked. It could also be that insulin resistance needs to be overcome which can take longer.
Doctor Chaffee, do I understand this as intermittent fasting is not necessary as long as you're carnivore and not eating carbs?
Rich
Where is part 2? It’s interesting about fruits. So children’s don’t need fruits at all right? I wished I had these knowledge when I was pregnant with my daughter. She is 3 now. I try to feed her carnivore but it’s a little difficult, because the kindergarten and socialising with other kids .. her dad: candys and chocolate it’s a part of childhood .. 🙄😫😑
No need for fruit. Fruits are made with sugar to be addictive to get animals to germinate and spread their seeds. Plant antioxidants and so on are useless for humans.
Are you saying that as long as the body has fat your body doesn’t use muscle for fuel? I’ve always heard that long fasts 72hour+ your body loses muscle because it’s using it for fuel
I enjoyed this ridicule natured video, thank you lol.
00:01 "The brain isn't made out of honey;" Somebody remind Saladino of this. (And remind him to stop grifting our community.)
Will carnivore doet help hiatal hernia
mechanical issue. But grounds to think it may aid recovery. Definitely!
Does the brain need any carbs at all?
I have one question about being in ketosis, if our body prefers it then why does it only take 1 carb meal to take us out of it, but when we're using carbs as our fuel if we have one fatty meal we don't go into ketosis.
Because it switches over to burn up the carbs first and get them out of your system, because excess glucose is toxic.
It’s like cleaning house. It can go back to ketones after that glucose mess has been cleaned up.
@@allyc9497 thanks 👍🏻
Switching from ketones to glucose when glucose is available makes sense and is quite efficient. But it isn't like eating a meal and saving dessert for last as if one is preferred over the other.
If I have fresh ripe produce growing in the garden and also frozen vegetables in the freezer, I'm going pick the produce in the garden and save the freezer food for another day. Possibly I might even have enough to add to the freezer. Body fat is simply like the food in the freezer .. stored energy for another day.
If your in ketosis does it matter how low your blood glucose levels go. If your blood glucose level drops to say 50 but you’re only eating meat and no carbs and presumably in ketosis, do you need to eat something sweet to get your glucose levels up?
Your body produces the tiny bit of glucose that it wants.
I thought the brain main fuel source is glucose? 🤔
Dr Bikman had glasses ?
How did the researcher put people to glucose levels lower than 20? If I remember correctly, by injecting insulin. So basically the glucose was transported from blood flow to cells. Basically the same amount of glucose but in another place, which is probably detectable if one makes tissue biopsy and not blood tests. This is not to disprove the carnivore diet, I'm carnivore myself, but this experiment from my point of view proves nothing.
If glucose is in cells, it isn't availabke for the brain to use.
How do you chubby up a baby quickly? 😆
I am interested but I only continued watching because of tha gta 4 theme tune aka the best of the gta IMO im actually leaving this video now to go bounce my skull listening to it
A carnivore needs a sweet every now and then.
I agree but if the ice age was too cold for the bees to make honey and survive why do they still live today? They didn’t went extinct so probably there was honey in the ice age
The whole world was not in the ice age. There were areas not affected
@@Debbie-jz6ef ah thanx :)
Georgi Dinkov is smarter than Dr.. Bikman
Who…?
@@catsrus2890 yeah, they should jump on an interview together. If ketosis was our primary fuel, why is necessary to be driven by stress hormones?
Its not driven by stress hormones, go watch Dr Bikmans presentations and you’ll see exactly how it all works.
@@leemanwrong of course it is. Gluconeogenesis is driven by the HPA axis mainly cortisol. Which suppresses, pregnenolone, DHEA, and progesterone.
And glucose is required (via gluconeogenesis), even in the deepest states of ketosis, Dr Bikman said in this very podcast.
Beta oxidation and the generation of ketones takes places under a stress state.
Consumption of glucose, takes us out of the stress state and activates oxidative phosphorylation, which produces more molecules of ATP per gram of glucose, relative to beta oxidation and glycolysis.
@@andyc7747because Bikman lies., howa that for qualifier 🤣
Brain runs better on fat. But for me my muscles run better on glucose for sure. Without carbs we would not have pro athletes.
Not true
Not true, Tim Noakes already proved your statement incorrect.
I agree with you. Ive carnivore for 6 months , and i live it and feel great. I started getting back into exercise recently, and i just do not have the stength especially at the upper end , hard core cardio when my heart rate gets up there. Its frustrating. Im sticking with it but i def feel the difference.
Tim Noakes is not me. I’m athletic. He is not in mybleague
@davidgreene8608 Tim Noakes did a controlled trial on top athletes. Both in ketosis and on carbs. No difference in performance on either.
Nonsense. Our taste buds crave fruit not fat nor protein.
Why do you think craving is a healthy thing? Been carnivore for over a year - and free of cravings. I eat delicious meat and eggs until full. Done. Life is much easier without cravings.
My taste buds crave alcohol and some potato chips. I suppose that's a good thing
@@CalmCowBell Carnivores crave meat... That's why they chase-and have the physical means to do so because it is of vital importance of them. The smell, the taste of meat and blood tells them that is what they thrive on. Our craving for fruit is of the same order. Now we can always wean ourselves from the food we are designed to eat and then actually enjoy foods we're not designed to eat, by cooking, salting, spicing, mixing but all those strategies clearly show we're not really made to eat them. To acknowledge we have sweet taste buds, that the scent of ripe fruit is delightful but then say fruit is poison based on partial observations is foolish.
@@dmloredana Neither are food. You can't compare the natural, vital cravings we have for fruits to the perverse cravings we have for alcohol, drugs and any Franken good.
Crave? Any craving is not beneficial.
