Unlike other 'diets,' I don't need to weigh out portions, keep endless records, spend hours in the grocery store reading labels. I just eat meat. All kinds of meat until full. Occasional salad minus the sugar sauce (Ranch was my favourite, now supplanted by oil/vinegar) or a few cooked veggies from the garden. I'm only hungry once a day (usually OMAD), but several times a week I can eat supper on Monday and not be hungry until Wednesday morning. Add the gym say 4x a week. At 67, the joints feel better especially first thing in the morning and at the gym. Food cost? Of course meat is more $$ than stuff in a can, but with reduced intake it balances out. At least give it a 2-4 wk try. Don't have anything to lose...except the fat that's killing us all. Yes, did take some mental adjustment to get 'healthy grains/low fat is better' out of my head. Paradigm shift, for sure. Have so far snuck past my doctor who just says, "Whatever you're doing, keep it up." Lab work is great. Cravings for the occasional (or not so...) pie, cookies, ice cream, cake, coma-inducing pasta dinner? Not really. Can go shopping for food and simply walk past that stuff without pause.

I wish that some people would listen to this. AHA and ADA, as well as other info, have convinced people otherwise. I know this works, I live it. People are carb addicts. Thank you for this valuable information. I'm thankful you do this and advise people how to optimize their health.
I began Keto to beat down my autoimmune disease, but my wife began after she realized that Keto is the real thing. She's been heavy all her life, tried all the diets, with limited short term success, but, when she saw the pounds dropping off she was wowed that she wasn't driven to eat all day, thinking about her next meal, not feeling deprived.
@@Profile.4 What ever you're eating, is making you miserable! I'm noticing this is from a few months ago, I hope you've found a new way of trying to make people feel bad about a good way of living/eating. Good luck.
I suffered from depression for the past 30 some years. Dozen of meds that never worked, 6 weeks in mental hospital, and NOTHING has helped. Started keto the beginning of April. Down 27 lbs. 331/2 inches and NO MORE DEPRESSION!!!!!! Only time I even feel down is when it is really bleak outside. Living in Indiana, winters are really difficult due to less, and less sunshine!! Hoping keto will help make a bit of a difference during the not so bright winter!!!
I had same experience. Keto really helps my brain work happily! Carnivore even more so, for me. Also live in frozen North--and light exposure is a big deal for me, am buying a light box for next winter and have hugely upped vit D supplementation. It also helps. Two plus years keto, will say it definitely makes winter far more bearable! For one, I never get dry skin or chapped lips or dry eyes during cold weather anymore. Used to have bleeding lips, it was so bad. Bye bye chapstick!
I have always thought my problem was too much meat and fat. Turns out I’m a sugar addict. I eat so many carbs....and I can’t even make it a day without them. The struggle is real. Thank you for the videos.
Watched one of your videos regarding carnivore. On day 4 and my blood sugar has gone down. I am pre-diabetic and my blood sugars have been over the 170's -190's. I tested one time at 205 after a meal. Started 7/7, zero carb and my blood sugar is in the 90's. Great for just a few days. Looking forward to getting it down lower and loosing weight. Thanks for all of your guidance and instructions. God bless!
I've been doing pure carnivore for about 6 weeks now and I've never felt better. I eat just meat and eggs. I mostly eat high fat ground beef and a few steaks but I also eat bacon and pork occasionally. I have eggs with every meal. I only drink water. The fat has started to drop off me and I actually think I am putting on some muscle mass as well. My mood has improved, I sleep much better and I have clarity of thought. I'm very rarely hungry and I don't feel any pangs for sugar or carbs. There is another very welcome side effect that I won't go into too much but lets just say I won't be needing any little blue pills any time soon!!
Thank you Dr Berry ! I tried keto after everything else...vegan , vegetarian , etc. I was overweight and arthritic in pain. Keto works like magic. Also I was surprised when I noticed I was mentally feeling better...not irritable or easily angered...feeling calm because I can finally have huge hope for the future.
I heard you a few years ago about carnivore but I didn’t really hear you! Now, I’m finally desperate enough to try this and will be starting in a week. I have vegetables I don’t want to throw away! Anyway, I’m am going to do this and pray I will actually lose some weight. I’ll let you know how it goes!
Adjustments of fat to animal protein ratio is very vital. In my case a complete zero carb along with zero vegetable for many months didn't result much loss of body weight. When changing 3 parts of fat to 1 part animal protein. The body was able to start really repairing itself Listening to the body is a challenge itself. I also cut out any temptation offered by jealous family members. Mental toughness is a positive bonus of eating keto. One meal a day and no craving naturally clear mindset is achieved. The truth is I constantly pay attention to other sources of information .Thank you Dr.Berry!
I’ve just started eating more fat and reducing beef volume. If I’m hungry I started reaching for butter. (Im f50, and started carnivore 4 weeks ago but fell off wagon twice last week and was SUCH a mess for 2 days afterwards - truly awful until I jumped back on wagon.
The reason keto his worked for me is because I really liked greasy fast food. It was not a far jump to tweak it to a clean keto diet. Quit the diet coke for sparkling water almost 9 years ago and have managed to keep the 120 pounds off. I have had some falters when I had to go on antidepressants when my dad was dying of brain and lung cancer, but thanks to keto, the small weight gain came right back off. I will be on this lifestyle forever.
I’m diabetic with high blood pressure. I finally got tired of feeling horrible, so I went on a one meal a day KETO diet. My blood sugars went from upper 200’s, to low hundred levels in less than ONE week. Blood pressures have softened up by about 10/10, so haven’t improved as dramatically, but they are going down. I’m feeling better. Sticking with this plan!
I've been on low carb/keto for about 6 weeks now and lost 18 pounds.. I've stopped biting my fingernails, fart MUCH less and don't get the munchies at all in the evening whereas before I would have my head in the fridge snorting up whatever I could find (especially if I'd had a smoke). I was also suffering from a lot of general anxiety before doing this and it has significantly abated along with several other symptoms. My body thanks me 24 hours a day...
Your videos were one of the reasons I lost around 54 KG (120 lbs). Started last december. It was so smooth and almost effortless compared to my attempt 3 years ago. On top all of that, I don't feel hungry until my eating window (OMAD now). Thank you Dr.Berry
Going on two years, only needed to lose 30 pounds which I achieved fairly quickly. Blood pressure which was running high has been below 120/80 for over 18 months. Feeling great at 62 years old. At my high school weight. Knee pain has disappeared. Great work Dr Berry,
Love your videos Dr. Berry. I've been doing carnivore since 5-31-19. Have lost 10 pounds and stopped the potatoes, breads, grains and sweets cold turkey. Hasn't been that hard!! Thanks for everything you do!!!
I’ll never stop sharing what I’ve learned because it is so life changing. Some will hear and improve their lives and some won’t but I will continue to share.
Thank you DR Berry, I started the Keto diet 7 months ago weighing 285 lbs. I do intermittent keto an only eat 1 or 2 times a day at 1 pm and 5 pm. I mainly do carnivore diet and have lost over 65 lbs and down to 218 lbs and lost 14 inch's in my waist, my lab work this week was great, My A1C is 4.9 so I'm no longer diabetic, my HDL is 85, ldl is 35 and triglycerides are 100 and the great thing is being on keto isn't difficult in my case anyway it has become a lifestyle that I'm comfortable with. I know I've done the work but thank you Dr Berry for starting me on this wonderful way of living !
2 thoughts for future videos: 1. Eating out, what to eat on Keto Diet (fast food included as sometimes it’s unavoidable) 2. Condiments and Keto...dressings, ketchup, etc etc
When I eat out, I tell them I'm on keto and they suggest what I can eat. You might have to pay for extra meat, cheese, sour cream, avocado, etc., but I've been able to find something everywhere I've gone so far. As for condiments, I avoid ketchup & stick to mayo, real butter, mustard, relish, vinegar, sauer kraut. Check ingredients for corn syrup, starch, sugar, dextrose (any -oses); mannitol, maltitol (any alcoh-ols); fruit juices; vegetables, soy; seed oils; etc.
I get fajitas at Mexican, but no chips, tortillas, rice or beans, but I ask for a double salad with guacamole and sour cream with my grilled meat and onions
Yes going into my 5th yr.I tried the lower fat and gained back 20lbs of the 50lbs I had lost! Back to basics and losing again! Thank you Dr.Berry for getting the word out!
Thanks doc! I cannot say enough positives about Keto. I am down 75lbs from living this lifestyle and I cannot tell you how great I feel and how many people comment on my vibrancy. Would love to see more vids about Keto and pregnancy.
Im ready to adopt this way of eating . I am more than a hundred pounds overweight. Looking forward to getting positive results. Thank you, Doctor Berry for your down to earth advice.
Dr. Berry. I start my Keto just month ago. I love to watch your shows, I bought your book too. You are so smart Dr. I’m glad to knowing you. Don’t stop talking to us,please. Sorry for my English. Magdalena.
Thank you Dr. Berry for such educational bits. Your videos have helped me with losing stubborn weight. At 5'2" I was 25+ overweight and so far I have lost 15 lbs. With the help of the keto lifestyle.
@oceanlove8209 I'm 5 4, and I wanted to get back down to 130 (from nearly 170). I started keto 4+ years ago. Within 18 months I was at 112!!! And have had to work ever since then to not go any lower! You can do this!
Thank you ! This is perfect....just enough info to stir up a newbie so they can do more in-depth research on their own!! Now I know which video to tell my friends and family to watch!!! You are the first person I always tell people to listen to when they ask me how I’ve lost over 100 lbs!! Again, thanks for stepping up!!!!!!!! 😁
ive been on keto for 3 months ive lost 25 lbs another 30 to go feel great looking slimmer, thanks Dr Berry for all your knowlegde ive been following you for only a month before i started Keto lifestyle watched easily 50 to 80 or more videos of yours to know almost all there is to know You are so informative , Keto Strong
I tried vegetarian diet in college and got sicker and much fatter. I have been doing keto and have some success, and now I am transitioning to OMAD and carnivore. I immediately feel better and some of my symptoms have disappeared already. Thanks for the information Dr. Berry.
I attest to this, I was 367 15 months ago, changed my eating by elimination sugar, processed foods, and eating low carb, high fat and today am 190 and have about 20 lbs to go. I also eat twice a day in an eight hour period and fast about sixteen hours a day and never feel starved. I am a bit hungry when I wake, drink a cup of coffee and I'm good till my first meal.
You need to find a new doctor, I lost count of how many doctors I fired, I found one that understands low carb and does NOT push pills. I have to wait two months to get an appointment but it’s worth it!
I am a newbie at your page. A retired nurse , impressed by your nutrition information. Physicians I have worked with have zero information, instead pull out script pad & complicate patient situation. We have to teach the public to treat food as medicine, please.Thank you
I sent your video to my daughter who is a vegetarian. Because last week she told me that she felt very weak and I feel it’s because she needs to increase her fats but, in order for her to increase her fats as a vegetarian what does she need to eat? I told her avocados 🥑
Thank you for all you do! I petty much understand what I need to do after several months and 59 pounds but I watch your videos to reassure myself that I am doing the right thing. Love you!
So grateful for your videos. Facebook groups, website etc. I joined you about two months ago. My body is healing because of this way of life. Thank you so very much for caring. You are blessed.😊
I've just lost 100lbs since last year. 160 lbs since 6 years ago. I want to lose about 40-50 more. Just did a skin fold test and I'm now at 25% body fat... and caring 215 pounds of lean body mass. I've been doing a 40/30/30 diet with 5 workouts a week. I really came to a plateu a few months ago and started doing the intermentant fasting and watched more pounds drop a little quicker. Now, I'm really turning to more 'natural fats' like butter, lard and bacon grease. Exchanging out more meat/protein for carbs. I'm not totally committed to a keto or carnivore. But I'm working closer towards it.
Carnivore works. Seriously. It works. I love it. It’s easier than keto and I feel even better! I also do OMAD and eat a nice rib eye once a day after work. It’s much easier than you think! Of course the beginning is hard when you aren’t fat adapted. But seriously, carnivore works.
Less snacking for sure! Yes, we lost weight. But it's not just that. Its energy, it's a glow, its feeling younger and never feeling that food coma. Life changing way of eating and I'm forever keto.
After I turn my back to carbs and go on keto, I have observed that I am not always angry and anxious as Before. I am more focused, disciplined and I am accomplishing a lot of things , plus losing weight. Im enjoying d foods too. I love it. Thanks dr. 💝
Do not forget to listen to your body and it takes time. When you have been eating all the so called healthy stuff all your life, it will take time for your body to adjust, this can take up to a year (i have been told), but always list to what your body is telling you.
I’m now losing weight because of your videos. How terrible that you should try to help people do this. Just kidding. Love that you are doing this. I’m eating almost all meat and very little veggies. I’ve lost 13 pounds since April 1. However it did not start coming off before May 2 once I started listening to your videos. First I was doing some Keto and then went to more Carnivore way of eating. Down to, two meals a day now. Hoping for OMAD. My husband is doing it with me the best he can right now. He has lost 20 pounds since May. Glucose levels are going down, praying he can get off his meds. Again thank you so much.
After 60 years of “you are what you eat (fat)” misinformation from doctors, dieticians, nutritionists, educators, governments, disease associations, etc, this is important counterintuitive information.
I notice that fasting helps me to not eat ;). And it gives me awesome mental clarity and energy. I'm still working on how to break a fast properly though if I decide to eat a little carbs, but I seem to bounce back from the sugar spike more easily now.
I do 16/8 and break my fast with a broccoli, spinach and avocado smoothie with various things thrown in (got to mix it up!) like almond butter, dark chocolate, few blueberries, flax/chia seeds, eggs etc, anything you fancy really.
i appreciate you so much. I was following another Dr for quite a while. I couldn't afford to eat everything organic nor could I afford all the supplements that were constantly recommended. Someone said they couldn't afford to eat organic all the time. The Dr"s comment was to get a better job. I don't follow him anymore.
Please consider teaching problems with digesting fats w/o gallbladder. Its been difficult. Lots of pain. Took ox bike w enzymes...did not help. Did not have much fat. MCT- no problem, but bacon- big, huge problem. Suffering for weeks. I still want to stay on Keto w IF, but I am just using MCT oil. I weigh 105lbs. I am on Keto for better health.
Dr. Ken, I lost a lot of weight with keto but still had a lot of loose skin. You said in the video that keto helps prevent loose skin, but I'm not sure that is applicable to everyone. I'm all in on this way of eating and am on carnivore now, but I don't think any aspect of it needs to be exaggerated beyond what is factual. It's great, but it can't deliver miracles. I wish it could.
Eating fat to lose fat doesn't work for me. I struggled for several months and lost a few pounds and to top it off I plateaued at 160. It was so frustrating.

I wish that some people would listen to this. AHA and ADA, as well as other info, have convinced people otherwise. I know this works, I live it. People are carb addicts. Thank you for this valuable information. I'm thankful you do this and advise people how to optimize their health.
I began Keto to beat down my autoimmune disease, but my wife began after she realized that Keto is the real thing. She's been heavy all her life, tried all the diets, with limited short term success, but, when she saw the pounds dropping off she was wowed that she wasn't driven to eat all day, thinking about her next meal, not feeling deprived.
You look fit and well Ken - a good advert for a keto/carnivore life style. Compare this to all the vegan doctors who look like death warmed up.
I hope they are all getting emails with my video links because they all look SOOO unhealthy!
So so true!
What a pathetic argument. Keep deluding yourself over this joke of a fad diet.
@D B LCHF? What is that!?🤔😊
@@Profile.4 What ever you're eating, is making you miserable! I'm noticing this is from a few months ago, I hope you've found a new way of trying to make people feel bad about a good way of living/eating. Good luck.
I suffered from depression for the past 30 some years. Dozen of meds that never worked, 6 weeks in mental hospital, and NOTHING has helped. Started keto the beginning of April. Down 27 lbs. 331/2 inches and NO MORE DEPRESSION!!!!!! Only time I even feel down is when it is really bleak outside. Living in Indiana, winters are really difficult due to less, and less sunshine!! Hoping keto will help make a bit of a difference during the not so bright winter!!!
I had same experience. Keto really helps my brain work happily! Carnivore even more so, for me.
Also live in frozen North--and light exposure is a big deal for me, am buying a light box for next winter and have hugely upped vit D supplementation. It also helps.
Two plus years keto, will say it definitely makes winter far more bearable! For one, I never get dry skin or chapped lips or dry eyes during cold weather anymore. Used to have bleeding lips, it was so bad. Bye bye chapstick!
Great to hear that, enjoy the ride
I wish I lived happily and depression free somewhere warm and sunny all year round! It must be wonderful x
I have always thought my problem was too much meat and fat. Turns out I’m a sugar addict. I eat so many carbs....and I can’t even make it a day without them. The struggle is real. Thank you for the videos.
Just STOP.
Watched one of your videos regarding carnivore. On day 4 and my blood sugar has gone down. I am pre-diabetic and my blood sugars have been over the 170's -190's. I tested one time at 205 after a meal. Started 7/7, zero carb and my blood sugar is in the 90's. Great for just a few days. Looking forward to getting it down lower and loosing weight. Thanks for all of your guidance and instructions. God bless!
Amen! I'm down 59 lbs and off all meds. Plus I feel great!!! BAM!!!
Wow, congrats! ☘🤗
Congrats Leilani!! 🎉🎉🎉😊
@@solutionfocused7147 thank you SO much!
@@Riosgirl98 thank you. I appreciate that.
Good for you!
April 16 2018 = 310#. July 10, 2019 = 215
Do you ever drink beer or alcohol
That’s amazing!! And beer is not really keto. Alcohol, yes in moderation, but it will slow your progress. Oh and not alcohol is equal
WOW...congrats!!
🎉🎉🎉
Wow!!!
Carnivore 3 years lost 50kgs no more meds no issues 64 years old life never been better thanks Ken.
I've been doing pure carnivore for about 6 weeks now and I've never felt better. I eat just meat and eggs. I mostly eat high fat ground beef and a few steaks but I also eat bacon and pork occasionally. I have eggs with every meal. I only drink water. The fat has started to drop off me and I actually think I am putting on some muscle mass as well. My mood has improved, I sleep much better and I have clarity of thought. I'm very rarely hungry and I don't feel any pangs for sugar or carbs. There is another very welcome side effect that I won't go into too much but lets just say I won't be needing any little blue pills any time soon!!
@@richardk5246 I will tell my husband 😆 he said all the guys at work have been raving about the carnivore diet.
Thank you Dr Berry ! I tried keto after everything else...vegan , vegetarian , etc. I was overweight and arthritic in pain. Keto works like magic. Also I was surprised when I noticed I was mentally feeling better...not irritable or easily angered...feeling calm because I can finally have huge hope for the future.
I heard you a few years ago about carnivore but I didn’t really hear you! Now, I’m finally desperate enough to try this and will be starting in a week. I have vegetables I don’t want to throw away! Anyway, I’m am going to do this and pray I will actually lose some weight. I’ll let you know how it goes!
Adjustments of fat to animal protein ratio is very vital. In my case a complete zero carb along with zero vegetable for many months didn't result much loss of body weight. When changing 3 parts of fat to 1 part animal protein. The body was able to start really repairing itself Listening to the body is a challenge itself. I also cut out any temptation offered by jealous family members. Mental toughness is a positive bonus of eating keto. One meal a day and no craving naturally clear mindset is achieved. The truth is I constantly pay attention to other sources of information .Thank you Dr.Berry!
I’ve just started eating more fat and reducing beef volume. If I’m hungry I started reaching for butter.
(Im f50, and started carnivore 4 weeks ago but fell off wagon twice last week and was SUCH a mess for 2 days afterwards - truly awful until I jumped back on wagon.
The reason keto his worked for me is because I really liked greasy fast food. It was not a far jump to tweak it to a clean keto diet. Quit the diet coke for sparkling water almost 9 years ago and have managed to keep the 120 pounds off. I have had some falters when I had to go on antidepressants when my dad was dying of brain and lung cancer, but thanks to keto, the small weight gain came right back off. I will be on this lifestyle forever.
I’m diabetic with high blood pressure. I finally got tired of feeling horrible, so I went on a one meal a day KETO diet. My blood sugars went from upper 200’s, to low hundred levels in less than ONE week. Blood pressures have softened up by about 10/10, so haven’t improved as dramatically, but they are going down. I’m feeling better. Sticking with this plan!
I've been on low carb/keto for about 6 weeks now and lost 18 pounds.. I've stopped biting my fingernails, fart MUCH less and don't get the munchies at all in the evening whereas before I would have my head in the fridge snorting up whatever I could find (especially if I'd had a smoke). I was also suffering from a lot of general anxiety before doing this and it has significantly abated along with several other symptoms. My body thanks me 24 hours a day...
Magnesium supplements help with anxiety as does cbd oil.
Your videos were one of the reasons I lost around 54 KG (120 lbs). Started last december. It was so smooth and almost effortless compared to my attempt 3 years ago. On top all of that, I don't feel hungry until my eating window (OMAD now). Thank you Dr.Berry
This doctor is now my weight loss guru.. Thanks for everything doc. I AM ON MY 2 WEEKS OF keto... and Im lovng it, Lost 5 kilos or 11 pounds. Woooo
Going on two years, only needed to lose 30 pounds which I achieved fairly quickly. Blood pressure which was running high has been below 120/80 for over 18 months. Feeling great at 62 years old. At my high school weight. Knee pain has disappeared. Great work Dr Berry,
Love your videos Dr. Berry. I've been doing carnivore since 5-31-19. Have lost 10 pounds and stopped the potatoes, breads, grains and sweets cold turkey. Hasn't been that hard!! Thanks for everything you do!!!
When in doubt...BACON AND EGGS! 🙌🏼
I certainly have a smile on my face when I'm sitting eating my bacon and eggs cooked in butter with a cup of Joe with double cream in it.
Barty Fufkin I scramble my eggs in the leftover grease from frying my bacon 🤤
when in doubt it's either bacon n eggs or sardines n eggs scrambled lol.
Also coffee with butter. And steak for dinner.
@@kazzicup coffee with butter wtf what does that taste like
Thank you for sharing your wisdom! You have helped me lose weight and improve my health. I hope you never stop making videos!
Now you gotta help me reach all the people out there still suffering from terrible information!
Try to tell people what you are doing they don’t want to listen
I’ll never stop sharing what I’ve learned because it is so life changing. Some will hear and improve their lives and some won’t but I will continue to share.
@@KenDBerryMD I posted this one on my FB page. Hope it sparks some interest!
Thanks Dr Berry! Please pardon me for saying.. but you look especially healthy and happy today!!!👍👍👍😊
Thanks!
Thank you DR Berry, I started the Keto diet 7 months ago weighing 285 lbs. I do intermittent keto an only eat 1 or 2 times a day at 1 pm and 5 pm. I mainly do carnivore diet and have lost over 65 lbs and down to 218 lbs and lost 14 inch's in my waist, my lab work this week was great, My A1C is 4.9 so I'm no longer diabetic, my HDL is 85, ldl is 35 and triglycerides are 100 and the great thing is being on keto isn't difficult in my case anyway it has become a lifestyle that I'm comfortable with. I know I've done the work but thank you Dr Berry for starting me on this wonderful way of living !
2 thoughts for future videos:
1. Eating out, what to eat on Keto Diet (fast food included as sometimes it’s unavoidable)
2. Condiments and Keto...dressings, ketchup, etc etc
If it helps he's already got a video on condiments etc.
When I eat out, I tell them I'm on keto and they suggest what I can eat. You might have to pay for extra meat, cheese, sour cream, avocado, etc., but I've been able to find something everywhere I've gone so far.
As for condiments, I avoid ketchup & stick to mayo, real butter, mustard, relish, vinegar, sauer kraut.
Check ingredients for corn syrup, starch, sugar, dextrose (any -oses); mannitol, maltitol (any alcoh-ols); fruit juices; vegetables, soy; seed oils; etc.
Oh, and you can make your own dressings & tartar sauces, add lemon, and things like that.
I get fajitas at Mexican, but no chips, tortillas, rice or beans, but I ask for a double salad with guacamole and sour cream with my grilled meat and onions
Akito Rose I couldn’t find it. I’ll have to look harder. Thanks 😊
Dr. Berry, did you just flip off those carbohydrates? 1:23
I see what you did there, lol, & then trying not to snicker. 😆
Birkit ami I picked up on that too 🤗
I caught that too!
I saw it, with a sly silent hehe.
01:22 Flipping off carbs haha I love this bloke.
That smirk accompanying the middle finger .... priceless ! :) ROFL
Yes going into my 5th yr.I tried the lower fat and gained back 20lbs of the 50lbs I had lost! Back to basics and losing again! Thank you Dr.Berry for getting the word out!
Thanks doc! I cannot say enough positives about Keto. I am down 75lbs from living this lifestyle and I cannot tell you how great I feel and how many people comment on my vibrancy. Would love to see more vids about Keto and pregnancy.
I agree about keto and pregnancy videos. That would be great!
Im ready to adopt this way of eating . I am more than a hundred pounds overweight. Looking forward to getting positive results. Thank you, Doctor Berry for your down to earth advice.
Dr Ken Berry is the only modern Doctor today on planet earth with integrity.Well one is better than none.
Dr. Berry.
I start my Keto just month ago. I love to watch your shows, I bought your book too.
You are so smart Dr. I’m glad to knowing you. Don’t stop talking to us,please.
Sorry for my English. Magdalena.
Thank you Dr. Berry for such educational bits. Your videos have helped me with losing stubborn weight. At 5'2" I was 25+ overweight and so far I have lost 15 lbs. With the help of the keto lifestyle.
Me too! I'm 5 2 and I want to weigh 130 again 😱😂😩
Good job! The less you have to lose, the harder you have to work. I don't think people properly appreciate that.
I am 5'2" and want to weigh130 again, I started at 172 and now I am 168, long way to go, congrats to you, awesome job.
@oceanlove8209 I'm 5 4, and I wanted to get back down to 130 (from nearly 170). I started keto 4+ years ago. Within 18 months I was at 112!!! And have had to work ever since then to not go any lower! You can do this!
Thank you ! This is perfect....just enough info to stir up a newbie so they can do more in-depth research on their own!! Now I know which video to tell my friends and family to watch!!! You are the first person I always tell people to listen to when they ask me how I’ve lost over 100 lbs!! Again, thanks for stepping up!!!!!!!! 😁
Thanks Dr Berry! Love your channel. It has been life changing! I’m 6 months in and not looking back.
ive been on keto for 3 months ive lost 25 lbs another 30 to go feel great looking slimmer, thanks Dr Berry for all your knowlegde ive been following you for only a month before i started Keto lifestyle watched easily 50 to 80 or more videos of yours to know almost all there is to know You are so informative , Keto Strong
Thank you so much. This was so informative and easy to understand. Jan 18, 2022 I start this process.
Me too, I have severe psoriasis and cutting carbs is helping a lot
Glad it was helpful!
Listen to this doc. I am a testament to his advice.
Human evolution and nature is a testament to his advice !
I tried vegetarian diet in college and got sicker and much fatter. I have been doing keto and have some success, and now I am transitioning to OMAD and carnivore. I immediately feel better and some of my symptoms have disappeared already. Thanks for the information Dr. Berry.
I attest to this, I was 367 15 months ago, changed my eating by elimination sugar, processed foods, and eating low carb, high fat and today am 190 and have about 20 lbs to go. I also eat twice a day in an eight hour period and fast about sixteen hours a day and never feel starved. I am a bit hungry when I wake, drink a cup of coffee and I'm good till my first meal.
I sure wish there were more Drs like you! Most go rabid if you mention Keto or anything close to it.
As they should
You need to find a new doctor, I lost count of how many doctors I fired, I found one that understands low carb and does NOT push pills. I have to wait two months to get an appointment but it’s worth it!
I am a newbie at your page. A retired nurse , impressed by your nutrition information. Physicians I have worked with have zero information, instead pull out script pad & complicate patient situation. We have to teach the public to treat food as medicine, please.Thank you
I sent your video to my daughter who is a vegetarian. Because last week she told me that she felt very weak and I feel it’s because she needs to increase her fats but, in order for her to increase her fats as a vegetarian what does she need to eat? I told her avocados 🥑
x marks the spot thank you
Should not be vegetarian. Unhealthy
Your daughter will be low in iron and Vitamin B12, both found in animal meat foods
The video that changed my life
Thank you for all you do! I petty much understand what I need to do after several months and 59 pounds but I watch your videos to reassure myself that I am doing the right thing. Love you!
He is so right!! Go to butter Bob's video butter makes your pant's fall off. Lot's of good video's also!!
Butter bob went off radar awhile ago. He's having heart/health issues?
I love Butter Bob, he's like the godfather...he turned me on to keto
Love you and Neisha’s pics in the background btw 😊
So grateful for your videos. Facebook groups, website etc. I joined you about two months ago. My body is healing because of this way of life. Thank you so very much for caring. You are blessed.😊
1:22 That finger to carbohydrates made me like the video and subscribe!
It absolutely works! Along with HIIT. I'm 63 and haven't felt this good for 40 years. Thanks!
I've just lost 100lbs since last year. 160 lbs since 6 years ago. I want to lose about 40-50 more. Just did a skin fold test and I'm now at 25% body fat... and caring 215 pounds of lean body mass. I've been doing a 40/30/30 diet with 5 workouts a week. I really came to a plateu a few months ago and started doing the intermentant fasting and watched more pounds drop a little quicker. Now, I'm really turning to more 'natural fats' like butter, lard and bacon grease. Exchanging out more meat/protein for carbs. I'm not totally committed to a keto or carnivore. But I'm working closer towards it.
Great Job!
Carnivore works. Seriously. It works. I love it. It’s easier than keto and I feel even better! I also do OMAD and eat a nice rib eye once a day after work. It’s much easier than you think! Of course the beginning is hard when you aren’t fat adapted. But seriously, carnivore works.
Dayum good job 😄💪 !
Both your vocal and screen presence have become nye on perfect. Thank you for being out there messaging.
LOL! I caught your subliminal message, Dr. Berry. You flipped off carbohydrates in this video. Nice! Keep up the good work.
Less snacking for sure! Yes, we lost weight. But it's not just that. Its energy, it's a glow, its feeling younger and never feeling that food coma. Life changing way of eating and I'm forever keto.
Omg you just gave carbohydrates the finger. ❤️
After I turn my back to carbs and go on keto, I have observed that I am not always angry and anxious as Before. I am more focused, disciplined and I am accomplishing a lot of things , plus losing weight. Im enjoying d foods too. I love it. Thanks dr. 💝
Dr. Berry and Butter Bob! The southeners know their stuff!
Do not forget to listen to your body and it takes time. When you have been eating all the so called healthy stuff all your life, it will take time for your body to adjust, this can take up to a year (i have been told), but always list to what your body is telling you.
I’m now losing weight because of your videos. How terrible that you should try to help people do this. Just kidding. Love that you are doing this. I’m eating almost all meat and very little veggies. I’ve lost 13 pounds since April 1. However it did not start coming off before May 2 once I started listening to your videos. First I was doing some Keto and then went to more Carnivore way of eating. Down to, two meals a day now. Hoping for OMAD. My husband is doing it with me the best he can right now. He has lost 20 pounds since May. Glucose levels are going down, praying he can get off his meds. Again thank you so much.
This diet really works. Not only do I feel great, but I have lost 80 pounds since January.
After 60 years of “you are what you eat (fat)” misinformation from doctors, dieticians, nutritionists, educators, governments, disease associations, etc, this is important counterintuitive information.
I'm only 4 days in to a hf diet and I'm already noticing some of these improvements
I notice that fasting helps me to not eat ;). And it gives me awesome mental clarity and energy. I'm still working on how to break a fast properly though if I decide to eat a little carbs, but I seem to bounce back from the sugar spike more easily now.
I do 16/8 and break my fast with a broccoli, spinach and avocado smoothie with various things thrown in (got to mix it up!) like almond butter, dark chocolate, few blueberries, flax/chia seeds, eggs etc, anything you fancy really.
Thank you. I’m canivore for two weeks and I’m already down 10 pounds and I’m satiated for the first time ever ❤
i appreciate you so much. I was following another Dr for quite a while. I couldn't afford to eat everything organic nor could I afford all the supplements that were constantly recommended. Someone said they couldn't afford to eat organic all the time. The Dr"s comment was to get a better job. I don't follow him anymore.
I know which one coz I follow him too. That comment on "get a better job" was uncalled for" 😞
Another Fantastic video.Dr.Ken is a Godsend!!!!!!! Love from Vermont
The more “REAL” food you eat... the less you eat.
Please consider teaching problems with digesting fats w/o gallbladder. Its been difficult. Lots of pain. Took ox bike w enzymes...did not help. Did not have much fat. MCT- no problem, but bacon- big, huge problem. Suffering for weeks. I still want to stay on Keto w IF, but I am just using MCT oil. I weigh 105lbs. I am on Keto for better health.
LoL flipping that birdy on Carbohydrate is just hilarious! Love it!
The best...Diamond Doctor of our time. 👍
LOL! Dr Berry, you are absolutely hilarious: "women, don't freak out. You're not going to grow a mustache or an Adam's apple."🤗
These points are SO ON TARGET!!
Thanks DR. BERRY !!
Back to basics. Always necessary to review. Thanks a lot Doc
Dr. Ken, I lost a lot of weight with keto but still had a lot of loose skin. You said in the video that keto helps prevent loose skin, but I'm not sure that is applicable to everyone.
I'm all in on this way of eating and am on carnivore now, but I don't think any aspect of it needs to be exaggerated beyond what is factual. It's great, but it can't deliver miracles. I wish it could.
Eating fat to lose fat doesn't work for me. I struggled for several months and lost a few pounds and to top it off I plateaued at 160. It was so frustrating.
Dr Berry, I love you! I love your common sense and your efficient, down-to earth delivery of the facts!
I have actually accidentally skipped meals on keto it's so much easier i don't worry about getting hungry/hangry on the go.
Lorena Williamsom Same here!
You’re the only doctor I listen here everyday 💕
I saw that smirk, doc :D
Dr Berry You are looking healthier and healthier every day! Love the blue shirt - it should be your brand color.
Dr. Ken always gives good advice; I love this channel....Thank you for all that you do!
I wish more people would watch this. Learning from you Dr was the best decision ever
love your youtube channel, I have been on Keto less than 20 carbs for about 2 months and I only lost 5 lbs, and I need to lose about 20lbs
NADIA CUSAN It might help you to work your way towards OMAD (one meal a day)... it really sped up my weight loss
Try IF (intermittent Fasting). I switched to one meal a day and got better results on both Keto and low carb.
Did you stop eating carbohydrates!? Your post was a while back, I'm curious to know what's happening!?
