It’s an amount of money that’s truly mind-boggling. The largely unregulated world of wellness is estimated to be worth $7 trillion. Remarkably, it’s three times more than the traditional pharmaceutical industry. And Australia is leading the charge in the wellness boom. Living among us are an increasing number of new-age gurus who believe, for an often very healthy price, they can fix our many real and imagined ailments. They claim things like coffee enemas, carnivore diets, intravenous drips, even vagina-scented candles will provide much needed zest for users.
On 60 MINUTES, Tom Steinfort realigns his chakras and sets forth on an eye-opening journey to discover if the wellness craze is giving us a new lease on life or is just an easy way to empty our wallets.

I went carnivore 4 months ago. It wasn’t hard, I wasn’t starving and staring at the scale anymore. I no longer had to feel guilty for not liking vegetables. The carbs and sugar cravings passed and my weight is steadily going down and many of my health issues are gone. Even my dentist was impressed. I’ve never felt and looked this good and my labs are great. My only regret is that I didn’t find this lifestyle earlier. I’ll be 60 this year and feel wonderful.
If you just ate a balanced diet and exercised you'd be just as healthy. You are suffering bc some guru conned you.
Congratulations!!!🎉
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And this isn’t a n=1 it’s more of a n=100,000’s
Let me guess you have been underweight most of your life.
ok, for 13 years, I watched my husband go from doctor to doctor to medication to remedy and nothing helped. He had so many different issues and could barely walk. He questioned why he was staying alive almost every day. About 6 months ago, he went on the carnivore diet and in that period of time has lost 80 lbs, no longer has sleep apnea, sleeps well at night, has energy, an even-keeled emotional life and is finally himself. I don't know if plants want to kill you or not, but I can definitely say that at least for him, carnivore diet is not a fad or trend, it literally saved his life.
That's so great to hear! Thank you for sharing
@@anthonychaffeemdThank you for all you do good sir - I'm only 5 day in, I heard of you and listened to "Plants are Trying to Kill You" a week ago...
I find it tough still, but I'm fighting and my wife is going to start after our vacation in two weeks time 😊
Can I eat a bit of Kefir and condensed milk (I think it's called in English??
Best regards from Danmark, Scandinavia.
The only people you need to listen to are Dr William Li (works with NASA astronauts), Dr Mark Hyman, and Dr Andrew Weil. Start there. Look them up.
Love this!!!❤
@@NordicHebrewno way condensed milk is full of sugar. :)
Intermittent fasting and bone broth are not extreme. Opioids from big pharma and their side effects are extreme!
Amen
Preach
Exactly.
They both are extreme, if moderation is not practiced.
As a scientist, the recent research on Intermittent Fasting proves only one thing ...... A few people lose weight on it because it helps stop them eating extra calories. Home broth is hardly something new ..... It has been used for hundreds of years to feed people who are recovering from illness. It does not have miracle results. The Jewish idea of "chicken soup" works the same way as bond broth. By the way, bone broth is often called consomme.
Opioids are useful for people who genuinely require pain relief to function ...... And when they are kept at low doses.
Carnivore is useful as an initial elimination diet. If you suffer from certain conditions like IBS, the foot cause may be anxiety ... Or it may be a particular food group.
Remember something virtually all the doctors pushing strange or restrictive diets ..... Are MAKING MONEY. I once was at a medical conference which was attended by a famous Carnivore follower ..... And witnessed him eating both fruit and bread. A couple of us questioned him ..... He grinned and pointed at his expensive sports car ..... "My followers paid for that".
There is absolutely no secret to healthy lifestyle. Eat a varied whole foods diet and avoid take away and ready meals. Limit alcohol. Don't smoke. A little exercise. You don't need vitamin supplements unless your bloods have specifically shown issues.
Since posting this story, 60 Minutes Australia has changed the title of this video 3 times. From “Carnivore diet and other wellness myths busted” to “Is your diet making you sick” and as of this post, “Extreme diets and health trends people are swearing by”.
I looked through about 50 top comments on this story, all of which from what I could tell, we’re talking about the carnivore diet in a positive light. Calling it a “myth” was a misstep obviously. Also the first title appeared to focus mainly on the carnivore diet. Carnivore doesn’t get talked about until the 12 minute mark and is covered for less than 5 minutes in a 28 minute story. I believe every lifestyle, even the ones I believe in, are deserving of scrutiny. However I believe they did a poor job of covering this lifestyle that was lumped in with vagina scented candles, IV drips and social media moguls who over price supplements. I understand it’s hard to cover carnivore in less than 5 minutes but the framing of the story wasn’t done well. You don’t need to buy anything extra to be carnivore other than changing your foods purchases. If anyone tells you so that is misleading.
Great post. Carnivore diet advocates generally don't advise purchasing supplements.
@@jonesr227 That is correct. Some influencers might have some products but most will state that eating whole food meat is the best way to live this lifestyle.
Glad you were so observant as I avoid mainstream media, because to me it’s just propaganda and the advertisers are always the ones being protected for fear of losing advertising revenue (which is understandable - but contrary to impartial informative constructive journalism). Actually, to even call what they produce now journalism is an insult to the trade.
Your depictions are spot on and I’m glad you highlighted these important points.
Media (even ABC and SBS) are all what I call “western propaganda”, hence why I want nothing to do with it and this is why I only found out about this 60 minutes article today.
60 minutes should be ashamed of putting together such trash.
Nevermind, could we actually expect any better?
Actually, from 60 minutes, I did expect a higher more informative look at what the health benefits are. It’s a missed opportunity.
Perhaps they are worried about Big Pharma being upset!
Excellent comment by the way.
Exactly. Nothing to sell but our N=1 tales of recovery. I guess we get a bit evangelical about it. But I just see people suffering like I used to. I have to bit my tongue not to spruik this fantastic way of eating.
Dr. Chaffee said he was interviewed for 30 minutes but they only included a few minutes! Terrible!
I am a nutritionist I also have multiple chemical sensitivity. I have life-threatening reactions to all vegetables and fruit along with more minor reactions like fibromyalgia and anaphylaxis. When I cut out all vegetables it totally changed my life. All the pain and problems disappeared immediately. It's the best thing I could have ever done
Juggernaut thank you for voicing your experience with MEAT . Big pharma would be out of business if people were willing to give a carnivore try.
You should contact a medical researcher because that would be very interesting to see the mechanism behind your claim. Until then, anecdotes serve very little purpose, especially from people who dont have medical training. It always seems to be vague diseases like fibromyalgia or "gut problems" that people like to blame things for.
@@nicholaspoulos7694 I have severe multiple chemical sensitivity, it's not anecdotal, I wasn't vague, I clearly mention it. According to the National Institute of Health 55.1 million Americans have been injured by chemicals like myself. I'm sorry if it doesn't align with your belief system or something but obviously you have no idea what you're talkin about so maybe you should limit your opinions on things that are outside of your wheelhouse
@@Juggernaut-fg2up what chemical in all vegetables are you sensitive to? I think with something so extreme you should be able to explain it in a less stupid way. You sound a little like the 12- year old who claims they’re allergic to water.
@@nicholaspoulos7694 oxalates and salicylates mainly, which includes all phenols. It's not an allergy
Who was the only person not trying to sell something. Didn’t denigrate anybody else to get his point across and an obviously very healthy individual.
Carnivore :)
CHAFFEE MD
Carnivore. I'm not super strict after 2 years, but I always feel my absolute best when I eliminate everything else. That's the only proof I need. 🥩
I am Ketovore myself... so close. Never felt better.
Dr. Chaffee. He also doesn't drink alcohol, or coffee, promotes good sleep and stress management,
these things are also all free.
The government recommended diet only made me sick. Carnivore is not a fad. I spent decades chasing down health issues. Between functional medicine and eating animals, I feel half my age and my medical issues are going away. I’ve only been doing this for 2 and a half months and look forward to more healing. How I feel is all the proof I need.
Lol calling carnivore a fad diet is like saying cats being carnivores is a fad
Humans are not cats. Look at your teeth.
Each to his own. You don't come with fangs, your teeth is adapted evolutionary to eat a diet of fruits, nuts, bulbs, grain meat and whatever they ate. It just boggles my mind someone can take what works for him and make it the rule of thumb.
My logic tells me balance is key.
@@shellderpit's a fad diet for humans, meat being abundant is a new thing,100 years old, I have Indigenous ancestry and meat literally makes me sick, I can't digest it well, everyone is different and we didn't adapt to eat only meat, we are omnivores and there isn't long term studies about the effects a carnivore diet has in the body, but in my personal experience with my family I wouldn't do it, my father eats mostly meats, doesn't like fruits or vegetables and he has high blood pressure, diabetes, had angina and a stroke, so probably not good in my family.
@@bluester7177You are being ridiculous. How is 5 million years a fad? That's how long we've been eating meat. If meat makes you sick, you either have been conditioned so or ruined your health to the point where the most biologically appropriate and available food does not bode well with you. If you avoid meat, your body adapts and doesn't secrete so much bile or have as low of a stomach acid. Here's a paper providing evidence for my argument: _The evolution of the human trophic level during the Pleiostecene._
The carnivore diet healed my crippling anxiety in 2 weeks. Also severe bloating gone completely and my skin is glowing! Barely use makeup anymore. It’s no longer a diet to me but a lifestyle.
I have only been on carnivore for a year and I lost 30 lbs and have no trouble being satisfied each meal . I was 200 lbs and now 170 and I feel much better .
I am glad you found it beneficial .
I had digestive issues eating plants. All gone after I stopped eating them.
What would you eating plants have to do with anxiety
@@critterjon4061plants are full of toxins and anti-nutrients that mess up your digestion. Mental illness starts with the health of your intestinal tract. If you only eat animal products and don’t get poisoned by plants, your mental illnesses will clear up. I healed all of mine… ADHD, anxiety, depression, all gone. Took a week and a half.
@@critterjon4061 The diet is tied in to nervous system as well as every tissue, organ, and system in the body.
After passing kidney stones my Dr gave me a list of foods not to eat. All vegetables. I'm starting carnivore tomorrow. I agree with Dr C, plants are trying to kill me!
Best choice you will ever make
DO IT! You won't regret!
Looking forward to hearing your success story. It WILL be a success story, I have no doubt about that. ☝😊

@slimpasco3561 - every time I eat spinach, my kidneys begin to hurt from the oxalates.
Carnivore for almost 1 year. I will not stop eating the proper human diet. I have resolved so many issues eating this way! Inflammation- GONE! PAIN - GONE! Fatty liver- GONE! Pre-Diabetes - GONE! Rosacea - GONE! Acne - GONE! Gut issues - GONE!!
Yes! that pesky archeological and sociological evidence proving humans only started eating absurdly large quantities of red meat in the mid 20th century thanks to the birth of the factory farming industry aided by the pharma industry pumping animals full of synthetic hormones and antibiotic resulting in the average age of female puberty in western countries dropping from 13.8 to 11.3 in less than 50 years is nothing compared to not farting anymore! And ya know we should all put out of our mind that in medieval Europe the average diet was about 90% fucking vegan because no one but royalty could afford meat and dairy since all the meat in the country was always at that one oppulent banquet for the king and yet white people did not go extinct, it's just a blip in history! Let's also forget that most of India is vegetarian and has been for millenniums, and it's not like they have a billion people surviving on a meat-free diet! NO! Homo sapiens were meant to be carnivorous, that's why over milions of years we didn't evolve to have those big cumbersome teeth called "incisors" between our sets of canines and instead we have just those tiny little teeth like a cat or a dog... Oh, wait...
Give me a break y'all are feeling great because your livers are getting rest from not processing crap carbs since it's the kidney's that filter out protein. That's basic shit you learn in the 9th grade. But guess what? Proteins are hard on the kidneys and those can shut down like that so I guess another couple of years and you guys can all have fun talking about it three times a week during dialysis! 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Amazing
your arteries and heart your carotid will it be okay in 20 years
@@amorturko0202 LOL. No doubt I will be fine.
My husband and I have been carnivore for 5 months and feel better than ever. We’ve both lost weight in the process and health issues have cleared up including asthma, allergies, aches and pains. We also have more clarity of mind, enthusiasm and joy for life and recover quickly after intense exercise. We are carnivore for life 👍
I wish I could convince my hubs to eat carnivore! It’s helped me soooo much! Not to mention no meal planning, no extensive shopping trips, in the long run it’s cheaper, no need for a pantry and a very minimalistic kitchen! I LOVE not having to worry abt what to eat! Meal planning, grocery list and cooking multiple foods is much too stressful. But, I still have to do it for my teens and husband. My kids r 18 & 14, so I usually just cook the meat. and tell them they’re on their own for sides. 😂
@@PR-pe9ocIt's so hard when people you love don't care to study things you value and or know to true.
Including asthma? 😮
I get to switch carnivore.
@@rizebalikcisiYes, people have said it helps asthma too.
@@rizebalikcisi Dr Shawn Barker has a list of success stories at carnivore dot diet.
Ive been carnivore for 83 days. Stopped snoring, arthritis gone, down 40lbs, depression, anxiety all gone. I have energy and motivation. Gee its funny reading these comments everyone is saying similiar!! right but we are the crazy ones. Meanwhile the entire world is eating the other way and obesity, heart disease, diabetes are all skyrocketing... carnivore for life!
Nothing wrong with all meat diet. Better than the shit that they push on 60 minutes. Big corp wants to keep big pharma going.
Well done!
Exactly!
You're a legend Sir
Been watching all your videos!! You and your daughter emma is my inspiration to push through this woe. ❤
I've never felt better on carnivore. Tried plant based with all kinds of grains and was always gassy and bloated. The brain fog was real with me. Since changing things to meat, my blood labs improved and I feel better than ever.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Agree, the brain fog is just gone on carnivore.
Same here, brain fog improved with 10 days maybe less, depression very much reduced. I also posted a comment on the main page should you be interested.
Thanks for sharing.
Same. And I can go 5, 6, 7 hours before needing to eat again. No need for a snack.
Well done, 🎉
I’ve been ketovore for 8 months and full carnivore for 4 months. Not only have I lost 30kg, but my depression and anxiety completely went away within 2 weeks, I’m off meds, my BP went from 130/90 to 105/65, resting heart rate was 85-90, now 55-60bpm. I have dropped a massive amount of visceral fat, my perimenapausal symptoms went away (no more hot flashes!) no more PMT, regular periods, no bloating, no cravings, no counting calories or macros. The list goes on and on. I was a skeptic to start with, but did my research and committed to a solid 10 weeks, but felt so amazing I’ve stuck to it and never looking back. I’m 40 and now feel like I’m 25 again. Carnivore/ ketovore is the real deal. Do your research before knocking it. Thank you Dr Chaffee for all you are doing for our health ❤
Awesome progress 😃
You know what’s so hilarious is that literally ALL of the things you mentioned also happened to me, except it happened when I STOPPED eating almost all meat except the rare chicken and streak and started eating mostly veggies 😂: I think the results have less to do with the diet itself and more to do with taking care of what you put in your body (so no fast food, no processed crap, excess sugar etc) When you eat mindfully-whether all meat, or all veggies, your body and mind change for the better. I say, do whatever works for you!
@@whitneyangelie3682 As long as you don't state that eating only meat cannot have fixed my health, while it was truly terrible after 10 years of vegetarianism bordering on veganism towards the end, I can agree that what works for one person may not work for the next. Before I finally switched to eating mostly meat and then eventually only meat, I was convinced that meat was unnecessary and I am not thankful at all for the information that brought me to that conclusion. 😃
No I would never do that, I truly believe every body is different and what works for one might not work for the other, YOU know your own body, period! But I do think that, whatever diet someone chooses that’s right for them, when you start becoming mindful of what you do and don’t put into your body and have an overall nutrition plan, whether that’s all meat or no meat, is always better than just mindlessly eating and having zero diet plan.
@@whitneyangelie3682The problem with the what works for you statement is that the carnivore doctors are arguing from the biology point of view for humans thus rendering them wrong. What say you?
I've been carnivore for 2 years. My dental hygenist marvels at how healthy my gums look. My eye doctor marvelled at how good my eyes looked and said to "keep doing what you're doing." I can go 5,6,7 hours before needing to eat again, no snacks needed. I walk to the top of a local hill every day without having to stop. (81yrs). I've tried vegetables many times but for me beef works the best. (As a kid I always shoved the vegetable to the top of my plate farther away from sight and smell).
Loved your story! Great feedback for newbies! Carnivore diet is the human ancestral way of eating. Now sure why Australia 60 minutes lumped with all these other people. He interviewed Chaffee for 30 minutes- but gave him a 2 second spot. Terrible.
@@JennifertxCarnivore The media never fails to amaze me.
@@janetclark5668 yep! They are only there to make money off sick people! It is corrupt!
It’s funny how most kids hate vegetables, and just knew better. Their bodies r so pure.

I have only been on carnivore for a year and I lost 30 lbs and have no trouble being satisfied each meal . I was 200 lbs and now 170 and I feel much better .
For you. I feel terrible eating animal products - it causes lots of inflammation in my body. I do well on a plant-based diet. But not everyone does. Food isn't one-size fits all.
😊😊😊 exactly
@neen42 I can't see why. Meat does not cause inflammation, but all plant foods has toxins in them. Going carnivore at the beginning is hard as your body needs time to adapt
@jimmysmad but the benefits are almost immediate.. even if you just started...
This is my story and experience with eating carnivore. I apologize in advance because it will be really long.
Let's first go back to March 2015. Prior to this I ate my share or processed foods and I had a heavy smoking habit. I wasn't healthy, I didn't feel great, but I wasn't ill and suffering. But in March 2015 that slowly started to change. I went in late one night with pain in my side and it turned out I had appendicitis. They didn't do my surgery until the morning and sometime in the night it had ruptured, I got gangrene and they had to take out a fourth of my colon. I was in the hospital for a week (and later three days for complications), and during almost that entire week I wasn't allowed nothing by mouth, not even water. I'm very thirsty, and not being able to drink was so awful for me that I completely forgot about smoking, which allowed me to get past the four day mark where I always failed when trying to quit.
So I quit smoking, quit coffee (because it would make me want to smoke), and I cleaned up my diet. Cut out processed foods and started eating LOTs of fruits and vegetables. I was trying to lose weight, get healthy and strong, and basically just become a way better version of myself. I also started getting more active with lots of walking and exercising three to four days a week. But for some reason I just kept getting more and more tired. I started bloating. I just didn't feel good, and the more time that went by the worse I felt.
Six months down the road I was in severe shape. I could barely walk a block, had to sit down and take breaks after showering or in the middle of grocery shopping. I went back to the doctor and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. My TSH was 48, which is extremely high, and my triglycerides were over 1000, which is terribly high. But I had a diagnosis and a prescription, and I was so relieved, thinking that I had the solution to all of my issues. And yes, some issues were resolved as I got my thyroid levels in range, but some things just kept getting worse, like bloating, and while I wasn't AS exhausted I still was very low energy.
I chugged along the next five years but I just felt worse and worse. I kept eating healthy, and I tried to keep as active as a could, but I was just exhausted, and terribly bloated. The bloating just got worse and worse. I was never not bloated. I would wake up about 6-months-pregnant-bloated and by late evening I was 11-months-pregnant bloated. By late evening it would hurt into my back and shoulders and I couldn't stand sitting up and would have to get in bed. And no matter what time of the day, if I bent over to pick something up I couldn't breath at all, because the bloating just squished everything too badly.
At about the 5 year mark was when COVID hit. I'm overweight, inflamed, high cholesterol (yes, even though I was eating low fat and lots of vegetables), and basically I was a poster child for having a severe case if COVID if I caught it. About this same time my A1C came back 5.6. Technically "normal", but it's just 0.1 away from being prediabetic, which also greatly increases your chance of dying from COVID. I only see PAs, no doctor, and none of them had been of any help, even though I told them I was suffering so badly that even the idea of living to 60 in this state was unthinkable. So when I got my results for my A1C I took to Google to see what to do about it. I ran across Dr. Sten Ekberg who explained insulin resistance the benefit of a low carb diet. Insulin resistance seemed to be accurate for me so I decided to try low carb.
Let me just back up a minute and also mention that in 2002 I was diagnosed with bipolar II, and for the last several years had suffered from near-constant depression and anxiety. I also had a plethora of other symptoms like skin issues, pain, severe acid reflux, and 10 straight years of nothing but liquid stools, no exaggeration. There were other lessor symptoms, but it's hard to remember it all now.
Now let me say that I did have some benefits going low carb. I lost weight for the first time in 20 years, which I had started to think was impossible for me. And my bloating reduced to a level I could at least stand. I had an increase in energy. I was still tired, but I was no longer too tired to shower and I didn't have to take breaks while grocery shopping. I also had some improvements in my acid reflux, I had less anxiety and depression, and I just suffered less in general. I ate this way for a year, but that was the extent of my improvements. I was still bloated, I was still tired, I still had all of my issues, even though some of them were improved a decent bit. But I really wanted to stop suffering completely. I was 49 and I didn't want to suffer for the rest of my life.
During my year of keto I of course followed a lot of other people, both experts like Dr. Berry and Dr. Ekberg and just others who were sharing their journey. And I kept hearing from people about carnivore, especially in the comment section. Now I thought this was crazy. We NEED fiber and vegetables, right? So I just ignored it at first. But eventually I decided it was worth a shot, especially after hearing so many people talking about the great improvements they'd had in their health. If it didn't work I could always go back to eating vegetables. And I had heard people also say that it had put their bipolar and other mental health disorders in remission, but I didn't have any hope for that with me. I mainly wanted to get rid of my bloating, exhaustion, and if I was lucky maybe my liquid stools.
So in August 2021 I went carnivore. Within a month my bloating was all but gone, my energy levels were equal to when I was in my 30s, my pain was gone, my acid reflux was gone, and I started having multiple days in a row where I wasn't anxious and/or depressed. Within two months my skin issues were cleared up, acid reflux was gone, and I continued to see improvements in my energy, strength, and a continued reduction in my anxiety and depression. After three months I had my first solid poo!!! I had really started to lose hope that carnivore would rid me of my liquid stools, so when I had my first solid one I was SO excited!
I've been carnivore for two years this August and it literally gave me my life back. Not only do I no longer have anxiety or depression without reason (obviously life events can still make me a big anxious or sad), I've recently started noticing that my life-long phobia of bees and wasps is just about reversed. It was a true phobia and I couldn't spend much time outside. That's not something I expected for sure. I also used to be a really bad procrastinator and now I'm not. I don't fully understand it, but eating carnivore didn't just heal by digestive system and my body, it's healing my mind. It might not be for everyone, but for some of us it's nothing short of a miracle.
WOW thank you for sharing, like you I have similar issues and currently I’m low carb but having difficulty staying with it. I truly think I might be addicted to sugary foods that prevent me from staying on low carb. Regardless, I’m happy that you have had such tremendous success 😊
@@katej2538 Thanks! Yeah, if you're struggling with cravings you might consider giving it a go. A lot of people find that their cravings disappear on carnivore.
So happy for you, carnivore is a healer... regards from Fiji, a fellow carnivore
@@katej2538 Some carboholics (sugar addicts), just like some alcaholics need to abstain completely. I have the same problem as you. 4 years keto now but still crave carbs ocassionaly. Looking at trying zero carb (carnivore) in the near future.
It means to me that a well balanced diet is important, both meat and veggies! A pure carnivore diet is bad for the body and the planet. People eat too much meat nowadays because it's just so widely available and factory farmed
I reversed my diabeties and fatty liver with the carnivore diet in six months. My A1C went from 10.1 to 5.2 with out any medication or insulin. I simply cut out carbs and ate fatty cuts of beef with 2 cage free eggs - drank water - didn't excercise (I have an office job)
That's fantastic! I'm so glad that you're doing so well!
Me too, A1C of 10.5, fatty liver and 144kgs. Went Keto, Carnivore and my last 3 A1C 5.7,5.4,5.2. Fatty liver gone and weight now 98 Kgs. All in 10 months.
"Just eat food and drink water." That's what the Carnivore diet is. No treatments, supplements, or expensive products, just eat the food we are designed to eat, meat, and enjoy your life.
I don't know if you've looked through the comments here, but there are 1400 comments and almost ever single one of them are from people sharing their stories of just how much carnivore has healed them. It makes me so happy. I come here every day and look at the newest comments and go through and like all of the carnivore-positive ones. Hopefully the people responsible for this video will read them and have a change of heart, and hopefully others will read them and give carnivore a try.
Carnivore for the win!

I reversed type 2 diabetes, reversed NAFLD, lowered my BP, lost 245 pounds since last April. Eating carnivore. Not having pills and surgeries, or eating carbohydrates and sugar filled garbage. The best thing by far is that the depression and anxiety is gone! Eat the proper human diet!
So,,,you got rid of processed sugar and lost weight...how's your penis-heart-brain doing
All very good reasons for the pharma companies and 60 minutes to fight it! Obviously
That the big thing people need to wake up to, no pills no surgery no nothing. That is why the medical education industry and pharmaceutical sales doctor programs will continue to fight carnivore. The fake meat is probably just an attempt to save the pharmaceutical companies.
You lost a whole other person! You are exactly right about the anxiety and depression too
@@holistic.health yes, lot of companies and revenue sources will be shut down when the truth of it takes root. And it will. It’s coming.

We must, and we will see the world impacted!
I tried the carnivore diet back in 2017 when I first heard Jordan Petersen doing it. I did it for about 6 months. Felt great, got to a healthy weight, and got rid of symptoms of certain things I was told I would just have to live with. After about 6 months I finally caved into all the people telling me it was going to lead to a lot of health issues and went back to the standard american diet. That was a huge mistake. I gained all the weight back, symptoms of auto immune issues came back, and I just felt crappy again. I should have never listened to all the nay sayers that don't even know what they are talking about. I started again in 2022, but got labs done by my doc before starting. After 6 months on carnivore I got my labs done again and the results were great. My doc told me I reduced my all mortality rate by 72%, I got into a healthy weight range again, and feel fantastic. No more listening to the machine that profits from me eating cheap to produce carbs/junk food. I will be sticking to this diet as long as the health benefits continue, which I am guessing will be the rest of my life.
Same here!!! 😊
Amazing story :) Meat really does heal the body! upping my fresh meat consumption has improved my health greatly too, haven't gone totally carnivore yet but that'll be next for me ❤
Same! All 4 of my auto immune disease symptoms go away when I stick to intermittent fasting and the carnivore diet. I started with keto first and learned that 99% of veggies and fruit make me feel horrid and/or make my body hurt. Gluten and dairy makes my body hurt bad!
That doctor who's name I can't spell, has some unlearning to do and more educating himself. I see him one day in the future, apologizing and saying he was wrong.
Congratulations and well done. That’s for sharing to a newbie (18 days)…I also shared my story in the comments just now.
Makes me feel sick to think i have to eat meat every day
So this young girl had an eating disorder that left her very malnourished. She had to be re-taught how to eat and they show her grabbing a bag of chips, Ritz Crackers, and a soda? I don't believe that was the correct education.
A once in a while consumption of chips and soda won’t kill you, remember life is also about experiences and is too short, do lot let it pass you by
I also found it interesting they didn't show her twin at current age. I wonder her size??
@@shingiriraiguvamombe2290 what kind of experience is eating cheap mass produced junk food😂
@@axileus9327 she was orthorexic - meaning never eating junk. She is getting filmed purchasing junk food to show her recovery and how orthorexia no longer takes over her life.
@@shingiriraiguvamombe2290yeah but if she has a eating disorder you want to teach her how to nourish her body and you can't do that with junk food. They are using the worse footage to make it seem ok to eat junk food. Now kids are going to see it and run with it. We want to teach kids and adults the proper way to eat.
If the mainstream system was working, no one would look for alternatives.
This right here!
so true!
Bang on the money there!
Absolutely. If Western Medicine Docs want to be taken seriously they need to pull their heads out of their a$$’s. Not to mention they are nothing but minions to the pharmaceutical and insurance companies. They do play a role in some health conditions but they are losing their leverage when they refuse to listen to their patients.
The vast majority of people who have and maintain a healthy BMI do it without simple, maintream eating habits.
Nothing busted. I just ate nutrient dense foods which is absolutely animal based and fixed so many issues and lost a tremendous amount of weight and inflammation.
🎉
Congratulations. Fad diet indeed, it's wonderful.
I started carnivore on Oct 24, 2022. This is going to be my second birthday! After five days, I woke up for the first time in 15 years without pain in every single joint. After 10 days, I felt lighter and realized that I had been swollen all over my body for as long as I can remember & I wasn’t inflamed any longer. After 2 weeks, I had my first day without brain fog for the first time in 15 or 16 years. After 6 weeks, my triglycerides were normal for the first time ever! Since then I have reduced my protonix for GERD by half TWICE (was 40 mg BID, now 20 mg SID) and I feel like I can and will eliminate it completely, I’ve lost about 25 lbs so far, my cycles are no longer painful (had been considering surgery for endometriosis), and I have cured diverticulitis & IBS, and put Lyme disease, fibromyalgia, and chronic fatigue into remission. ANA titer is now negative.
I had previously tried low fat, whole 30, candida diet, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, juicing, plant-based, medical-supervised calorie restriction… it wasn’t until I cut out sugar, artificial sweeteners, starches, AND FRUITS & VEGETABLES that I finally found relief. I wish it didn’t take so long to find it.
I hope you have a happy carniversary. Without a cake of course.
I started carnivore after topping off at 308 pounds. I slept all the time, high blood pressure, anxiety, depression were out of control. Zero energy. Fatty liver. Plus more that O can not even thonk of at the moment. I was the perfect picture of poor health!!!
So far I have lost 80 pounds diabetes is GONE
Blood pressure now under control and no longer taking meds
My depression and severe anxiety GONE
Urge incontinence GONE
Dry eye GONE
Off all medications except my thyroid meds
Normal sleep patterns
HUGE increase in energy
My thinning hair is growing back
This is no fad diet. This is how I am making my 62 year old body healthy again and FEELING AMAZING
I am a Scientist who specialises in Eating Disorders and Diabetes. Obesity kills. Very simply your body was packing in due to your weight. When you lose weight, regardless of method you use, your body starts healing. Well done on the 80lbs lost.
@@alexandrasmith7682That's not true. It matters how you lose the weight. And the main benefits of carnivore don't come from weight loss.
I am a carnivore and I am so glad to have my health back😊
I started in 2018 and reversed diabetes2, chronic sinusitis I had for 20 years, I have no more pre menopause issues (I am49 and my cycle is still there), I have no more depressions, my skin is free from acne, my teeth are perfect, no more seasonal allergies, better sleep, muscle grows naturaly, no more joint pain, ......, I feel great and want to age just that way and fully enjoy my life. When I was on a sad diet and later on vegetarian, I got so sick! It was terrible. I had diabetes 2, lost my father with this and refuse to end like he did! No! I won't swallow 20 pills a day, live a miserable life and be blamed it's my own fault by doctors who tell a diabetic to have sugar in masses and just adjust with the right amount of insuline... No! I reversed it and I am so glad I made it and will stay a carnivore. I am not going back to a miserable life.
@leftoverciccia Blessed are those who've gone back to our NATURAL way of eating. So sorry for you losing your father who didn't know about this simple fix...but at least the information is coming out now. 💖🙏💖/💪💖
hahahaha
I’ve reversed diabetes on Carnivore as well
1 year carnivore now and I've never felt better. IBS gone, acne gone, energy has never been better.
I have only been on carnivore for a year and I lost 30 lbs and have no trouble being satisfied each meal . I was 200 lbs and now 170 and I feel much better .
I stopped almost all sugar snacks / foods over 40 years ago - except - cola drinks - I stopped cola drinks about 15 years ago .
I NEVER eat deserts . I hardly eat much processed food - pizza was a big exception though . I ate a lot of beans in meat stews with carrots, celery, onions and stuff like that . I ate loads of vegetables .
I wasn't much overweight at 200 - I am 6' 1" tall so at 170 now I am very thin with very little body fat .
Even before carnivore, I usually only ate one time a day for a meal . However, I usually ate a lot ! Like a 12 inch supreme DiGiorno's pizza with added mixed vegetables on top . Funny - the spell checker told me the correct spelling is ' Giordano's ' .
Or a quart and a half of stew with a couple of flour tortillas .
Even now, when I make popcorn, I make over 6 quarts at a time and eat it all . That is only one cup of corn though - it pops to over 6 quarts . I put a combination of pepper powders on it - habenero - cayenne - ghost . To keep the pepper off my hands - I use chopsticks .
@@kablammy7 what do you eat? I mean I guess you include some veggies?
What foods were you eating before, though? It's more likely the removal of crap foods making you feel better and not the additional protein
@@florencia2771
Not usually any vegetables - only occasionally I eat something like bell peppers or cabbage or brussels sprouts or mixed vegs ( broccoli - zucchini - green beans - ) the only corn I eat is tortilla chips ( not often ) and popcorn - ( sometimes every day ) I cook it in loads of ghee . I eat loads of raw onions and garlic most of the time with each meal . I only eat a meal once a day .
Other than that, I have mixed raw nuts and popcorn or tortilla chips for snacks .

Carnivore diet for 1 year changed my life. I lost over 30 pounds of pure fat and cured my diabetes. I am incredibly fit now and even my wife is so happy as I am going like a rabbit in bed now.
100% mate. I have lost 10KGs in the past 12 weeks, I am no longer Diabetic and my wife is also happy the same reason hahaha.
You and your wife are not people of honor.
98% All-meat and fat diet here. 30 years of health issues and tests confirming said health issues from multiple doctors solved within 3 months of adopting an all-meat diet. I paid nothing for my knowledge except my own testing on my own body. No one took advantage of me. The results were astounding and I may never go back to a plant-based dietary pattern. Do with this information what you will. EDIT: I also find it odd that you lump together business and marketing disputes in with scientific and academic nutritional disputes. This is an apples to oranges comparison and I'm not quite sure what people are supposed to take away from this other than, "a lot of people have a lot for different beliefs and they all have evidence they say backs them up."
I'm 73. I've been carnivore for almost a year. I've dropped 19 kilos, the arthritis in my shoulders, knees, wrists, and hands is gone, my skin rashes are gone, I'm no longer pre-diabetic, my blood pressure is far better than before carnivore, no more sleep apnea, no more gastric reflux, and my mental clarity and energy levels have vastly improved. Say what you want. I will do, and continue to do, what works for me. I feel as good now as I did in my 30's. Chaffee doesn't sell anything, only excellent advice. And Chaffee isn't the only doctor who says vegetables are harmful there are lots of other doctors who agree. The second doctor that criticized Chaffee is full of it. Before carnivore I spent 45 min a day on the treadmill and ate a salad every day for lunch. My weight stayed at 100+ kilos for years.
Congratulations! Better late than never. I found the Ketosis diet at 57 years old, that led to Carnivore. 61 years old now and I feel like I've discovered 'the fountain of youth' in the carnivore diet. 😊
I’ve gone from the stupid American diet to keto, to ketovore, to carnivore. Chaffee is fullbof great info. Not going back to being inflamed and sick.
Healed me as well! And feels so amazing to feel slim, strong and healthy. The biggest “issue” has been to deal with other people worrying that I will die from a heart attack eating this way. Lol
Thanks so awesome, well done!
Arent you constipated all the time? That seems pretty bad for your digestive system.
Useless IV drips.. right on! As a hospital pharmacist….I recommend NEVER having a needle stuck in your arm if you are capable of drinking out of a cup -ridiculous money maker for the DRIP PARLORS.
Spot on description of Paltrow too.
Actually, IV drips are used in the hospital. Have you not heard of vitamin C and glutathione being used in the hospital? Also, if you dint believe in vitamins which is basically what iv drips are, then why do chemist sell supplements? Because it's the same thing but oral form.
Vitamin C and glutathione... Oh yeah.. the stuff that's found in FOOD 🙄
So, literally, if Paltrow actually ate food instead of living on bone broth and a small salad, she wouldn't need those IVs (that make her feel good and give her so much energy) now would she.. 🙄
This is soooo absurd.
When the doctors hurt me of western medicine, vit c iv saved me. I think you should study this now. I did. Much bettter than pharma.
The carnivore diet has changed my life. I’ve been sold nothing except meat at the grocery store. This Dr is nuts. My blood pressure dropped from 165/100 to 120/78 in two weeks! I lost 16 lbs the first month! Guessing big food was running ads on the program when this was broadcast.
No steak or bacon since 1976 😱still here! I’m 66 and start my day with 100 push-ups before several other workouts. 🌱💪🏼for decades!! BP 107/68

Thank you to the Dr's in the comment for all they do. Information freely given to improve my lifestyle. I am now no longer on medications, have normal BP, high HDL, low triglycerides and the arthritis pain in my hip and hands is near nil. The bonus of eating a ketogenic diet is the 30kg weight loss.😊
Yes! They are the best!
For veg, I only eat tomatoes, because of the potassium and I love them with a full block of buffala mozzarella with wild smoked salmon... keto carnivore for 8 months, with the logical intermittent fasting that the lack of hunger makes you develop. 65lbs down and counting, blood work perfect, insulin resistance gone, steady glucose in the low 70s thorough the day... the best I've ever been!
I love Dr.Anthony Chaffee❤ I'm so thankful I found a honest doctor like him. I have tried many diets in my life, and nothing has made me feel as good as carnivore.
Crack also makes people feel good.
@@mldouglasjr But, your health measurably improves on Carnivore and not on crack.
@@mldouglasjr only difference is crack is a drug with negative side effects, meat is nourishment
I've been carnivore for months and I have lost weight, my diabetes is no longer a problem, my joint pain is gone and I feel tremendously better. My labs are all fantastic and I'm never hungry. So I know there are haters, but it works really well.
Dr Chaffee is a godsend. His advice is spot on.
It's infuriating that diabetics are told to eat whole grains and fruit.
Yup, the keto/carnivore diet is on the right side of history. Time will show all.
Yes makes absolutely zero sense. 🤦🏼♀️
That’s not the only thing they are told to eat. They are told to add fruit and whole grains because they with a bit of protein and fat is satisfying and often leads to fat loss which improves glycemic markers
Exactly. Carbs and sugar.
Nothing worse
Just here to give Dr. Anthony Chaffee some love. The carnivore diet has helped me so much from my skin health (no more eczema) to my gut health (no more chronic constipation). I love seeing all the comments on here.
I’m an Aussie and I have been following a Carnivore or proper human lifestyle now for 7mths and it has been the best decision I have ever made. I have IBD - Ulcerative Colitis and within the 2nd week I noticed a change in my symptoms. And they have continued to improve as the months have gone by. My tests results at the 3mth mark showed great results and I’m just about to do another round for the Gastro. I am also in the process of tapering off my meds. I was paleo based before but all the fibre and so called ‘super foods’ were not helping my colon or my symptoms. The nutritional guidelines we are fed are bogus and society needs to start waking up to the lies! Belinda Fettke does a great job at exposing this. 🥩 ❤
"Proper human" 🤣
The carnivore diet works. I've been doing it for 12 months. No longer have gum disease or arthritis and a whole host of other improvements.
Me... same story but I've been doing it if and on for over 25 years
Hey, Dave! 👋😄 Thanks for the pointer. I'm finding so many more carnivore success stories here.
Not to mention the disappearing bald spot!
I'm carnivore-ish (ketovore) and my gums no longer bleed when I floss, and no it's not because I started flossing more, I still suck at that, lol!
Team carnivore! It's the best. Full of wonderful, interesting, open-minded people.
The Carnivore diet is not a fad diet, I have reversed all of my gut problems, bleeding gums,skin,arthritis,weight problem and more. Absolutely no drugs no wellness BS, just meat & fat.
Yeah--no one's getting rich off people changing their diet for the better.
Unfortunately most doctors and dietitians don't bother to look at the toxins in plants. Also if you look at the health of carnivor doctors it is clear they are healthier than the overweight doctors pushing statins and insulin.
@@justjane1639 exactly!
@@bezaubertvonbill People still need food to live, so regardless of which food you choose to buy, someone will be compensated. You can hunt, forage, or raise your own, if you like.
64yo, carnivore for 3yrs and feel the best I've ever felt. Reversed a lifetime of migraines. Fixed reflux, reduced body fat and gained muscle, feel more alert, reduced inflammation in joints and bones even in what was a very painful bunion. Hair and skin looking very healthy. Bloods excellent, blood pressure excellent and CAC score of zero. Tinnitus is less. My husband has also benefited, reducing inflamation in areas of old sporting injuries and gaining strength and flexibility. This is a way of life, we love feeling optimal.
Dr. Anthony Chaffee is amongst very few doctors who aren't afraid to speak the truth. Keep up the great work.

I didn't even finish watching the video. All you got to do is read the comments section to realize where the truth is. Anytime the mainstream media goes after something you could be assured it's likely the correct answer. No wonder why our media has lost all credibility
100%
Do the opposite of what any “news” channel says.
Carnivore saved my life. Went from blood clots and autoimmune issues to absolutely no meds and having more energy and better health than I ever have (and in just 6 months!!!)! No, Dr. Chaffee wasn't selling goods or services. (He actually helped me for free!!! It just took time researching for myself and watching his videos.) Please run a corrective episode and feature more of him and Dr. Berry (or many other carnivore doctors). I've actually saved money going carnivore. Wellness has become easier for me and extremely liberating. Way less stress.
I don't think MSM is capable of presenting a fact-based episode on eating meat. But isn't it great? -- I'm saving money -- and time! -- gave away my cookbooks. And my labs results are the proof of the pudding.
I'm 8 months into carnivore. Best thing I have ever done for myself and I didn't pay anyone anything for the info. Just eat meat and repeat. I wish i started eating this way 20 years ago. I currently feel 20 yeara younger. Between keto IF Fasting and carnivore i am down 167 pounds in the last 2 years. I am also in the process of getting the tobacco plant out of my life
That's fantastic! So glad to great that you're doing so well!

CARNIVORE DIET HEALED ME OF CHRONIC PAIN AND CHRONIC FATIGUE
I WAS ALMOST BEDRIDDEN FOR TWO YEARS AND NOW AM RETURNING BACK TO WORK
ONE YEAR IVE BEEN ON IT AND WILL NEVER STOP
YOU FEEL SO GOOD SO STRONG AND SO WELL
I’m almost 50
I have been carnivore for 3 years and feel more energy than I have for years - I am turning 64 & I look younger and I no longer suffer from depression, my migraines are gone, sleep better. We, as humans, evolved eating meat - so why is it so hard to think we can survive on just eating meat?! Have we changed so drastically that meat no longer sustains us?
The idea that carnivore is a "fad" is amusing, given human history.
That’s great, well done
That's so great to hear!
Good for you but come back here after 15 years or more on carnivore
Went carnivore 6 months ago. Lost 40 lbs. Labs are outstanding. I’m 56 and in better shape than I was in the Army at 23. No more skin issues, better sleep, and my John Thomas had never been harder. No supplements, no gym memberships. Carnivore, intermittent fasting, and pushing up my own body weight.
We don’t get to hear from “ex carnivore dieters” much so here goes: I tried the carnivore diet for 11 months. Was very strict, salt and pepper on steak for lunch and dinner. Bone broth for breakfast. I used cow lard for butter . I did it to lose weight and help with my immune system, where I have a rare form of arthritis , palindromic, since I was 20. I was mid thirties. Although I started out losing weight, I slowly started to gain and it wasn’t stopping. I dealt with it, maybe that how I was supposed to look. But what I couldn’t deal with was the constipation and/or diarrhea , and huge painful gastro “popping” in my belly all night long. It just wasn’t working for me, but I tried. So it’s not a one size fits all, but I don’t doubt that it could be helpful for some people. I quit and had a wonderfully balanced and reasonable relationship with food ever since. I get full faster, I don’t yo-yo. So it helped in that way! But I’m better off of it. Just wanted to add my experience so people don’t consider it a miracle cure- helps some but not all.
Thank you. This comment section is ridiculous!
Eating a traditional Sámi diet saved my life... I am Sámi and Kveni, and somehow believed for a while that a western modern diet would work due to recommendations, but it made me extremely ill. Grains, legumes and vegetables was so hard for me to digest. Now i am back to my roots eating only meat, fish, butter and some berries in season... The modern diets are the real scam. Especially for us Arctic peoples, but probably everyone..
Kven* autocorrect 😄
Carnivore is the optimal human diet. No one could ever change my mind.
Period. Eat of story.
FACT!
I mean end, not eat!
💪🏼🥩🧈🥚
Wait until you get older and test if your arteries are building up plaque. Long term studies have not been done yet for the carnivore diet because it has only become popular in recent years. It's still an open question with regard to cardio vascular disease. I think we will find out in coming years. Currently all we have is theory, and seems like convincing theory but that doesn't always pan out once studies are conducted. The human body is incredibly complex so we can't always account for everything that's going on. We need LONG term studies on this diet.
Carnivore 2 yrs. No iv drips, enemas...lol. Reversed type 2 diabetes.off 14 meds , age 64. Followed ADA recommendations for yrs, tried vegan...all made me sicker. Now at age 64 healthiest in my life! Excellent labs for first time in 30 urs. Energy thru the roof. Beef bacon, butter and eggs saved my life.
One of the best choices I made in life was to go carnivore. Feel amazing, dropped the excess kgs and my blood test results are now flawless...
I am on carnivore diet for the last 1.5 year and it's working wonderfully. Anybody can expect to see these wonderful results in 2 weeks under carnivore diet. However, I am sad to see Dr. Chaffee to be included with other questionable fad diets/wellness programs. I truly believe that carnivore is the optimal way for health.
I think it's still a net positive. Anyone with a functioning brain that watches this in it's entirety should have the same take away... One of these was not like the others and the ambassador for it was the most reasonable person who wasn't trying to sell you something. All he did was tell you we've been lied to for far too long.
Weird how the carnivore is the only one who looks like the epitome of health.
Dr Chaffee is a prime example.
Odd how that works right? It's like if you eat what you're meant to eat you look healthier.
Exactly
Well... he works out too besides the diet
@@graceweiss3813 even with his crazy schedule of consultancies and appearances and videos? Wonder why the others aren’t getting those workouts in? Surely this way of eating couldn’t be the source of this boundless energy; that’d just be nuts!
My son eats mostly meat and has never looked or felt better, we should eat what makes us feel better....we know our own bodies
Barb M, we can't say "we should eat what makes us feel better..." because many sugar addicts feel great when they eat sugar which you and I know is poison. People should get educated using internet and try to discern what's true and what's false my dear.
I fear that the anti-wellness influencers are failing to acknowledge that good health requires NOT eating ultra processed foods laden with chemicals. I agree we need to go back to eating an ancestral diet with organic pastured meats and vegetables. I agree that IV nourishment and loads of exotic supplements are wacky and extreme but it is increasingly difficult to find quality food in grocery stores. Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater and BLEND modern knowledge with ancient wisdom.
To theory of dr. Idz I have eaten more vegetables, more grains and less meat and got breast tumor, 3 uterus tumors, thankfully they were not malignant jet but fast growing, had to operate them, also had constant inflammation of sinuses , inflammed eyes and bleeding gums, developed allergy to cold and had to take medications so I can function on my job, my vitamin D3 levels were very low and my parathyroid markers were high ... Finally I found carnivore and all inflammation went away, my autoimmune allergy, my gum are not bleeding any more, tips of my tooth where also getting transparent of malnutrition and now they are stong and white, no more sinus inflammation I have energy like I've had in highschool, going to the gym and no meter how hard I train I don't get sored! This is in my opinion the only way for proper health. I'm 45y woman, working fiscally demanding job and 18 month on Carnivore. Big thanks to Dr. Anthony Chaffe videos and all other doctors and promoters of Carnivore way of eating 🙏🏻❤️🥩
This episode was sorely missing the results of many legitimate scientific studies supporting some of the newer styles such as the keto diet and intermittent fasting. The result was an episode of anecdotes and opinion instead of discerning the best course that legitimate scientific studies are now indicating.
I agree with you on that. 👍
Phinney and Volek did some great work on ketogenic eating…
Intermittent fasting caused my hypoglycemia. It's not for everyone.
Scientific studies that are peer reviewed and not paid for by the industry that profits from a study that backs their bullshit claims?
@@dcostanzino you simply didn't do it correctly. You may need doctor's supervision to educate you how to do IF in your case. Intermitten fasting is healing once you are off carbs and are fat adapted.
Why is this not available in Australia? Carnivore is legit. Seems 60 mins has vested interests in creating doubt.
Of course, they all have an agenda.
You can be assured when the mainstream media picks up on a certain narrative that they're worried. These people lost all credibility especially when it comes to medical information years ago
If the world went carnivore, the supermarkets would all go out of buseness. We'd be back to "greengrocers and butchers.' There really wouldn't be much else to sell. All else could be sold in a corner shop.
It was aired in Australia, last Sunday.
Another benefit of Carnivore is the stuff I DON'T have to take after being on it for a while. Before Carnivore, I was on about 15 different supplements for which I had been nutritionally tested as needing. That list is down to about 3 items now and those are just some minerals to help with deeper sleep. Huge improvements for me in this department and I feel like it's a sign that I'm giving my body what it needs nutritionally.
I agree. I was spending a lot of money for phosphaceidal serine (and other supplements) and found out I could get all I needed from meat. What a relief. I do well on carnivore and fruit and dropped most supplements. Still magnesium and some vitamin d for winter.
Where do u get tested for nutritional deficiencies?
Im glad they gave carnivore a fair shake. It's made a huge difference in my health and given me my life back. Best thing about carnivore, keto, and intermittent fasting is that they are free. No clubs to join, no pills to buy. Just eat whole natural low carb foods. Remember, there are NO essential carbohydrates or sugars.
and, any pharma pills/medications you have been on in the past - will most likely become part of the garbage bin. I was on lots of prescribed meds before Carnivore and now have no prescriptions. Carnivore Heals.
Actually, Dr. Chaffee said they interviewed him for 30 minutes and they only used a few seconds of it. Terrible! No respect
Carnivore is healing me, I’m so grateful! So angry about the low fat mantra I was exposed to most of my life. Grandad was right..eat butter! Man made frankenfood is the death of humans…
There’s nothing “heavily contested” about the carnivore diet. It’s the proper species-specific, species-appropriate diet. Professor Bart Kay can hand anyone their arse on a plate in an actual scientific debate about the carnivore diet. I’ve been carnivore for around 5 years now and I’ve never felt better. It reverses practically all ailments.

Carnivore ended my years of daily headaches! Also migraines, edema, aching joints, and low blood sugar issues.
Went for the great food and health recovery. Stayed for the improved blood labs, and 20 pound weight loss!
Same here. I was chronically irritated, fatigued, and had a headache that never went away. I also had obsessive thoughts about doing that one thing. Even though I didn't WANT to think about it and knew I would never do it, I couldn't shake the thoughts. Carnivore fixed all of this. I now suspect these symptoms were mostly due to systemic inflammation (esp. in my brain). Can confidently say all my issues are in the past so long as I stay carnivore.
Lost 50# and went off Insulin pump/injections.Ketovore! Feel awesome! Lowered my A1c from 13.6 to 7.4.All since Aug 22. My self not my healthcare provider . She has no clue.
Lots of scammers in wellness industry. The vitamins are cheap to make. I think a combination of balanced diet, exercise, stay away from sugar works well for most. Too many people charging very high prices for wellness services
Nobody's getting rich off me eating meat.
@@justjane1639 Agreed, me too!
Carnivore is the proper human diet and not a fad diet because it has been around for millions of years.Isotope testing of our ancestors has proven we are hyper-carnivores.

I've been carnivore for more or less a year, my rheumatoid arthritis is in remission, my hair is growing back, my eye floaters are as good as disappeared, my skintags are vanished, my pre diabetes is gone, no more IBS and the list goes on.
So i don't really care what anyone's opinion is, it works for me.
And i spend a lot less money on my groceries and ditched all the supplements.
All we need is fat and animal protein to thrive.
O and forget to say, I also lost the 70lbs I needed to loose.
It IS cheaper. I gave away my cookbooks.
For about 10 years I've had an issue with my fingernails lifting and crumbling. Fungal nail infections were ruled out early on and my dermatologist decided it was either distal onychosis or nail psoriasis. I was told only my only options were to live with it or trial medication for psoriasis. I didn't want to risk the nasty side effects of the psoriasis medication, so decided to just live with it. Three months ago, I heard about the carnivore diet and how it's the ultimate elimination diet. Something clicked in my brain that perhaps my nail condition was related to my diet - standard "healthy" food pyramid diet. The logic behind the carnivore diet made complete sense, so I decided to give it a go. Now three months in and my nail condition is almost completely gone! It's like a miracle after putting up with this for 10 years!!! I no longer have the worry of people thinking I have a fungal nail condition. I believe my nail condition was the result of an autoimmune response to something plant based in my diet (I did eat a lot of plants). Joint pain I started getting over the past year or so has also completely gone. Other benefits being full carnivore include better mood, stable energy levels and mental clarity. Thank you Dr Chaffee, if only could have a full 60 minutes on this show!
eating vegatables caused my constipation, I stopped immediately. it does not work for me . Carnivore is amazing in my opinion,. thank you dr chaffee
Funny, because whenever I have tried having meat in my diet, I get painful constipation. No one diet is best for everyone. Add in some legumes and spinach and such, and it all goes away. My bloodwork is perfect, my BMI is about 20, I have energy to keep teaching preschoolers music multiple hours a day (think activity, like hopping, jumping, running, marching, getting down on the floor as a baby bird…). I sleep about 7.5-8.5 hours a night and have normal blood pressure, cholesterol, very good A1C, normal thyroid, and most importantly, I feel good.
@@MusikGirl23 not sure where the source of meat came from but im in florida and our grass fed beef is superb. but im glad your doing well. Im done mixing things up lol
Carnivore is great, I started 8 months ago and I’m never going back. I feel so much better. It gets you out of the boxed food, sugar, processed, seed oil big grain matrix and delivers back your health.
So does learning how to cook and reading ingredients. I don't know how people can think this is an ideal diet.
4 years I have been carnivore, after trying to find answers to heal from 20+ years of IBSD. I tried vegetarianism, veganism, Low fat, FODMAP, nothing worked. I stumbled across Mikhaila Peterson, Dr Ken Berry, Dr Shawn Baker, Dr Paul Mason and Low Carb Down Under on TH-cam. I started Carnivore the next day. I used to be able to clear a room with flatulence (very potent), now I get no flatulence. I would be buckled over with severe pain, nausea and cold sweats and diarrhea on the toilet, that is all gone, too. Acid reflux, gone. Aching hips at night, gone. Dermatitis from dish liquid, gone. Seasonal allergies, gone. Stronger hair and nails, and clear skin. Addiction to sugar and carbs, binging, gone!! Mental clarity, brain fog lifted and the amazing mental strength to leave a 25 year toxic relationship. I will never go back to eating fruit and veg, or anything processed ever again. Food freedom. You might say it is restrictive, but I would rather eat anything from the animal kingdom, than to experience any of those symptoms again. Dr Anthony Chaffee keep spreading the good word. Meat does heal.
Been carnivore for over 5 years, no more acne on my upper back. At 52 I have a six pack, something I was never able to obtain as a teenager eating the standard American diet. Don’t have to restrict portions and don’t obsess about food anymore. No hypertension, no diabetes, CAC score of zero. So sad all the people at work who keep telling me how essential eating plants is, they are all significantly over fat and graze on snacks in between their meals at work. When I gave juicing fruits and veggies a try in my late twenties, the palms of my hands turned from pink hue to deep orange. I look back and can only shake my head at how naive I was.
I’m sure someone will try and make a buck off of carnivore like they’ve done with Keto, but there’s no secret pill. Just eat meat, bacon and eggs. No need to pay any Goop guru or buy a book. Five or six years ago my wife wanted to try Keto so we both went low carb (20g or less most days) then I naturally moved to high fat carnivore. At 57, I haven’t felt this good since my 20’s, take no medications, have no inflammation, can literally jump out of bed in the morning with no stiffness. LDL is higher than my doctor wants but then there’s nothing wrong with high LDL (I think he’s forced to say that). I’m never hungry and when I am I eat as much as I want. 😊
That’s why the pushback against this way of eating; no way for anyone to profit. We could largely heal the ecosystem as well with a mass adaptation of this diet, but no corporate profit to be had by doing that either.
@@stephaniehuie9005 Ya!...All those monocrops producing "food" that makes us all sick can slowly be converted to regenerative cattle farming and parks and who-knows-what-all more-harmonious uses of our land. I like to say 👉 Meat will be able to find ways to feed the hungry millions of the world AND to cure their diseases.

@@bezaubertvonbill 😂 Ideally this way of eating would encourage and give local producers a chance to make living wages and break up industrialized monopolies in the meat industry. As well as help our soil regenerate and recover from industrial crop farming.
@@bezaubertvonbill Any profits ranchers make pale in comparison to what Pharma, the medical industry, and food manufacturers rake in.
Im from Denmark and have been carnivore 4 months now. It have cured my hyperthyroidism and my nodules in my throat is completely gone. I have more steady energy now, sleep awesome and brain fog gone. My skin is flawless and I seldom need to brush my teeth because there’s no oder. I look 10 years younger (I’m 40 years old), and have no pain in my back or legs anymore. My LDL is high and my doctor wants me on statins, but I say “no thanks, I will live longer with high LDL. All my other bloodwork is on point. I’m never going back to SAD - carnivore for life 🥩💪🏼
Love the carnivore diet, I’ve lost 40 kgs, put diabetes into remission, improve all my health markers… and no real down side.
I cannot recommend the carnivore diet enough. I get comments all the time, people telling me I 'lack nutrition by just eating meat' but I have stopped caring and now think to myself 'come see me in 10 years when your health issues are piling up and I look and feel half my age'. I am forty years old and I feel better than I did when I was 25. Been on the carnivore diet for about two years now. My IBS is gone, my hair and nails grow like crazy and my anxiety levels have dropped severely.
This. Thing. Works.
Just give it a try, if only for a month. Don't let people scare you off.
Awesome that you managed to start it so early! 😃
N=1, but carnivore has worked for me. I'm almost 50 and feel better than I did when I was 25. Blood work is perfect, too.
If you take your n=1, and add it to the rest of the comments, Carnivore is looking good right now.
This episode covered many topics. The comments here speak volumes about which one has produced actual results costs no money. The problem is that it makes no money for big companies so they will keep pushing profits.
Bingo!
Right on Adam. Yes, it becomes dangerous business when Big Pharma, Big Food Co., & The medical systems are profiting from feeding you junk to only treating symptoms & drugging you. Sad, disgusting & evil. Most of the brainwashing comes through the mind control TV. I say turn the garbage box off & do fun things with friends & family.😁💕
It makes me wonder if they added carnivore in there just to get clicks and comments. If so, it worked!! Like carnivore...
ABSOLUTELY! and because it makes NO money for them and cuts the amount of $$ doctors and the medical industry machine, as well as Big Pharma - makes them HATE Keto/Ketovore/Carnivore! A people who are healthy and well is discouraged because it hurts the amount of $$ they all make - absolutely DISGUSTING that they care more about making money (at the expense of everyone's health) -- than working to provide advice and marketing practices that promote true wellness. People are waking up to the LIES - and that's a great thing.
I was doing Keto for just over a year and I thought I felt pretty damn good. Recently I switched over to carnivore. I've never felt better in my entire life! No longer eating ibuprophen like crazy, I sleep like a rock, most of my fibromyalgia symptoms have improved to almost non existent, I no longer suffer from GERD, anxiety and depression have greatly improved, I no longer have heart palpitations AND OMFG my skin looks AMAZING! That's only to name a few things that I'm experiencing. I'm actually excited to get up in the morning. . .that hasn't happened since my elementary years. I don't give a rat's ass what anyone says. . This is my new life and I am loving it!
Awesome Michelle, it's done wonders for me too. I agree, when you've turned your health around & feel alive again why would we go back to eating things that make us sick. Way to go Dr chafee. That other dude better read these comments & wake up. Lol. 😁
@@anitawi2309 Lol! Thank you and congratulations to you as well. YAY MEAT! 😃
Same for me. Correct vittels for vitality.
Carnivore diet for two months has cured my 13 year chronic diarrhea.
I thought it would cause it. It does for many people.
Carnivore diet changed my life!
Most un-adulterated, and most nutrient dense food you can get! Meat!
Farmers spray there stuff, pesticides, fungicides, herbicides and other things to increase weight but not nutrition...
Farmers fields are mostly void of nutrients apart from NPK. Nitrogen, potassium and phosphorous
same here. I tried every diet one could think of & I was so ill. now I'm on the carnivore diet & my body is healing every day. there is no right & wrong when it comes to diet ... no one size fits all. some people get healthy when they go vegan & others when they eat animal products. it is sad that people choose to attack other people's diets just because they have a different experience of what health looks like
I have only been on carnivore for a year and I lost 30 lbs and have no trouble being satisfied each meal . I was 200 lbs and now 170 and I feel much better .
@@abeerunis8605 To me a vegan looks ghostly, a vegetarian look like they are lacking something, keto people are trying too hard. Lion diet is natures purest food
@@nickarrizza Such as? I have been drinking distilled water and supplementing with magnesium and calcium for a few years now, That made a huge change too! I would love to know your experience aswell
You can watch an entire video that outlines all the scientific evidence against the carnivore diet and then go on to ignore all of it and just say "IT WORKS FOR ME!!!" That's the adult equivalent of plugging your ears and saying you can't hear your mom yelling at you
Thanks to Dr. Chaffee I stopped drinking coffee and don't eat plants. We are blessed to have him online "preaching" what's good for us. I am 57 and take NO MEDS . Feeling at 57 better than at 37.
Lol
Same. Also his claim that if you don’t eat plants you can work out as much as you want and you never get debilitating soreness is correct. This year I have qualified to not one, but three different world championships, and no matter how hard I train, I never get sore. I recover better, faster, and am more conditioned than competitors 20 years younger than me.
Carnivore works. I couldn't eat breakfast cereals, breads and vegetables any longer. Since only eating meat, I am no longer tied, i am thinking more clearly, more patient, no joint pain and able to work a highly physical job all day long. Steak, bacon, eggs and butter is all you need.
I'm 53, on carnivore day 376. I shed 50 pounds of fat and put on 18 pounds of muscle in that time. My psoriatic arthritis is gone, my psoriasis is gone, and I feel like I'm 25 again. My blood pressure went from 148/98 to 120/80. Ain't no way I'll ever go back to a standard American diet.
53 years old and put on 18 pounds of muscle 😂😂😂
Probably the diet is helping you but no need to exaggerate numbers unless you are juicing too bc but not even a teenager can put 18 pounds of muscle in 376 days!!
For anyone reading this, don't get too excited
Exercise, healthy food, water, and adequate sleep. All of these are symbiotic. I was having trouble sleeping, falling asleep at work, and at home. I started exercising, which fixed the sleep issues, which increased my energy.
Exercise didn't help me at all. Not until I changed my diet did I fix all of my issues and regain my energy. Everyone is different. For me carnivore was 100% the answer. And now exercise isn't a slog that just makes me more tired.
Best choice I've EVER made is to be carnivore!
Ditto!
Same 5 years now and never felt better. I feel better at 53 than I have my whole life. I eat about %90 animal foods just having a few sweet things on occasion . Carnivore really isn't some crazy diet being humans are obligate Carnivores it's the natural human diet.
I did 50 plus hours research into the Carnivore “diet”, which is really a misnomer as it is a health and lifestyle change.
Anyway, after 18 days I feel better mental clarity, lower depression already, more relaxed/patient, slimmer tummy and a huge change in craving…it’s totally gone. I typically eat 1-2 times a day and it’s just SO easy and washing up is a breeze!
More stable energy.
Just be aware it’s not for those with a weak mind…as detoxing causes diarrhoea and is certainly a challenge. You need to be determined to succeed.
Thankfully, diarrhoea for me it’s very much now reduced.
It’s important to realise that weight loss is not the ultimate goal, getting rid of (in my case), pre diabetes, severe fatty liver disease to the point of it being very close to liver function being impaired, MDD Major Depressive Disorder, high blood pressure, anxiety.
So in 14 days I have lost 12kg, again it’s not that important, health quality is.
I continue to do research and still learn every day something new, though I think I’m getting close to knowing enough for my needs.
Just one control trial that blows my mind is a 12 day study of 4 groups of people that have severe constipation.
Fibre was the variable concerned.
Anyway, I’m in it for the long haul.
Sounds like a great start. The mental improvements are immense. Myself, I've felt a bit like I must be on an illegal drug or something. For a bit there were days where I felt invincible but also days which were not as great. I played around with the diet and eliminated coffee and most dairy. This reduced my fat intake and increased protein; was around 2:1 fat:protein, now more like 1:1 on lean days and 3:2 on the fatty days. Now I feel invincible almost every day, something I had never experienced before in my adulthood. So perhaps you can understand why I am so hyped about this carnivore thing!!!
Best of luck to you 😃
Keep going with it and there will very likely be more imrpovements along the way!
Best of luck!! 😃
@@cbdp hey mate, thanks for sharing your story. It certainly is a different feeling to being chained up to cooking all the time, worrying about what to eat where next, when, as we know it was food addiction all along. Carbs and sugars are just so incredibly powerful and you don’t even know you are hooked until you start carnivore! I gave up milk which was my biggest addiction, where I would consume between 1-2 litres per day. This all started after a major accident where I had many broken bones to heal: sternum, left elbow, left ulna and radius bones near the wrist, T11, T12, L3, L4, L5, pelvic ring fractures in three places, sacrum to pelvis on both sides the right side being worse.
So, as you can see, this is why I hit the milk in the belief that I needed plenty Calcium to heal all these as I was in a very bad way.
So glad you are having success with your new lifestyle change and that quality of life I’m assuming has also improved.
Thanks so much for sharing. 🙏
So do people on the carnivore need to add fibre to avoid constipation? Is that what you are saying? In which case what type of fibre?
@@Ikr2025 Fibre only seems to cause me problems, so I feel best without any. Before going first keto and then carnivore, I used to eat a lot of fibre because I believed the nonsense that it would help with my digestion. Turns out that it was probably one of the main cause of my problems!
onya!
Astounding to see that the most fit person by far interviewed for this piece was Dr. Anthony Chaffee...a neurosurgeon, former pro rugby player, and CARNIVORE! *deadpan expression*
Dr Chaffee also wasn't trying to sell you anything. Just giving away facts for free.
@@MrRJPE Exactly. He's the real deal...hence the "deadpan expression." ;)
My daughter is 13 and some time ago I started to notice that she only wanted to eat vegetables and nuts, she did not want to eat with us around the dinner table. I had a talk with her and I was completely in shock when she told me that someone online ( think it was fully raw Kristina, who doesn’t look healthy at all and clearly have an eating disorder ) have said that a completely raw diet with only nuts, vegetables and fruits that are not cooked would clear acne. So since she has acne (completely normal for a teenager) wanted to try….she also have tried to manifest with her thoughts to clear acne after advice from some vile influencer …I’m terrified of the internet to be honest and watch more closely what she is doing, it’s not easy. Her acne did clear by the way, with the doctors help…..
I know her! She is a raw vegan. 😂 I used to watch her for her juices due to my anemia. That’s it! The girl is anti-science. She was in Bali and I think she got a scratch from a monkey. Instead of going to a clinic to take the rabies vacc!ne3, she started to “detox” her body with vegetables and fruits juices. I was SHOCKED! I kept reporting her video for disinformation. She is a nut job.
😂 at the Influencer's
I cannot reply to this comment without it being deleted by the algorithm.
Acne is only "normal" for a teenager because people dont inspect how food affects their skin / body. Im not saying fully raw is the answer to acne, but neither is the standard diet. There is a hormonal element to acne, but their are easy ways to balance hormones and have less acne. It is a very painful and self-conscious time as a teenager, having a zit is the end of the world.
Ten to 15% of the population will NEVER have Acne or any skin disease! It is NOT normal to have Acne! There are many treatments that she can use besides this, like Proactiv, Acnease, and other treatments that will help to clear this!
Our nations are fat sick depressed and overall unhealthy and people are seeing results going back to the basics of how we lived for thousands of years and 60 minutes goes after these people, amazing. I've read more success stories from carnivores the last 9 months than every single diet combined in my life
The Carnivores know Dr. Chaffee is correct and I'm sure after seeing this a lot of people will research him more. Dr. Chaffee has helped thousands of people, including me!
I can vouch for the Carnivore Diet and quite honestly, It makes me furious to see a well respected 60 minutes casting it in a negative light - but hey what can you expect from media propaganda and the powerful sugar, medical, and food industry that wants us sick, fat, and unhealthy - I started a low carb ketogenic way of eating 3 yrs ago when I was 93 lbs overweight, had high blood pressure, psoriasis, A-Fib, and the list goes on. Through using keto and then transitioning into Carnivore, I lost that 93 lbs, plus all of my other poor health markers. My blood lab markers over the last 3 yrs also support this - they were very bad 3 yrs ago when I was still eating the Standard American Diet (SAD) There are MANY many Doctors who now support the ketogenic/ketovore/Carnivore diets - these Drs not only support the Carnivore Diet - but also follow it themselves. DO YOUR actual research! It's the standard american diet that is SO UNHEALTHY - NOT KETO, NOT CARNIVORE. This just makes me see RED.
Right on!
I am with you on the carnivore diet. But FYI, to me 60 MIN has never been well respected. I just think of the "witch hunt" on Pete Evans. I remember watching the 60 min interview and then watched the one Pete recorded at the same time. What a huge difference between the truth and the interview on 60 Min.
I am so happy i found the "no carb" way of eating, a/k/a carnivore way of eating. I am 68 and feel younger, have more energy, am less grouchy and have a better outlook on life. I started to help with inflammation after a medical procedures on my back. So far, 6 weeks in, it is helping with that plus all the other benefits and I dropped 6 pounds and look better. I studied the no carb diet under no less than 10 medical docs, including a heart surgeon, a kidney doc, several board certified docs, Phd, etc. who all work with patients. The docs themselves did the diet. Not one had poor outcomes and in fact all showed health improvements. I may add some plant foods later, but will remain low carb.
Dr. Ed’s advice is why we have epidemics of obesity, Type 2 Diabetes, Heart Disease, and Alzheimers in Western countries. You can NOT out-exercise a poor diet. Whole grains and all grains are the number one “healthy” driver of these epidemics because………….. they are SUGAR in your body. Add some “healthy” fruits to your diet and watch your belly expand and your blood sugar become uncontrolled. I’d love to get a look at his labs and compare them to mine, a 58 year old Carnivore. I bet my labs look better than his.
I eat a plant based diet. Whole grains, vegetables, fruits and legumes and I’m so insanely shredded it’s mind boggling. My labs are better than ever and I have a low RHR and BP. Anything can work. As long as your overall lifestyle is in check. But carnivore is a stretch with no large body of evidence proving its efficacy on long term health.
@@jasonrios3120 Except for anthropological evidence of strong, healthy hunters with perfect teeth ranging back over countless millennia. No need to reinvent the wheel.
@@jasonrios3120 I was vegetarian for almost 9 years. I know plants well. Keep on eating those grains, fiber, and fruits until you’re 55. You’ll stop when you’re diabetic or diagnosed with cancer.
The claim that there is little evidence of eating Carnivore is just completely false. At the very earliest, humans began farming about 10-12k years ago. For millions of years humans were hunter-gatherers and ate the fatty meats of animals before they ate anything else. Any paleontologist will tell you that the larger size and growth of our brains came from us eating animals. I haven’t seen any paleontologists who disagree with the scientific research regarding that fact. Even simple google research into the aboriginal population of Australia shows 40,000+ years of the carnivore diet. But, I’m not here to change your mind about your diet. You’ll figure it out eventually on your own, just like I did. I wish you well.
@@justjane1639 not to mention the larger brains, longer lifespans and taller in stature, compared to modern man now.
What keto then carnivore diet did for me and others in as little as 1 year, is something no standard diet promoting doctor could for years. Shame on them, with all the degrees, yet narrow-minded, not up to date with research, and dismissive (jealous!) of the amazing reaults ppl are achieving with no meds, in fact ppl get off their crap meds.
I don't think I've met one smart doctor in my entire life. And they think they know everything, when everything they say is so backwards.
@@CC-mr5xq But they've got a white lab coat!
I dont recall Dr Chaffee trying to sell anything. He should not be tarred with the same brush as Gwyneth Paltrow or expensive telemedicine quacks. I have a difficulty with Dr Idz because, once you make your name as an iconoclast, your profile depends on being oppositional and shouting at the camera. It's worth noting that 'lifestyle medicine' is heavily based in Adventist influenced plant based eating. I note your interviewer didn't question veganism as an 'extreme diets'
The thing that is actually "radical" is how far the food industry has taken us away from simple, natural, nutritious food. And when people wake up and try to claw their way back to health, that is seen as a "radical" move, they are seen as the weird ones for opting out of the death-machine that is currently our food industry. If people took more than just a cursory glance at some of these health practices and used their discernment and intelligence, instead of broad-stroking it all as "wacky" (It is a given that some practices are stupid i.e Vagina Candles) then you can find great benefit and map your way out of the death-spiral that a lot of people are in when it comes to health and food choices.
