  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 ต.ค. 2024
  • After studying chemistry at the College of William and Mary, Dr. Paul Saladino spent 6 years traveling and exploring. Highlights included a thru-hike of the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada, a summer in the New Zealand backcountry, and 2 years skiing and climbing in Wyoming's Teton Mountains.
    Dr. Saladino returned to academic studies after these adventures, becoming a physician assistant and practicing in cardiology. It was during this time that he saw first hand the shortcomings of mainstream Western medicine with its symptom focused, pharmaceutical based paradigm. He continued his training at the University of Arizona, obtaining his M.D. in 2015, and completing residency at the University of Washington in 2019. He is board-certified in psychiatry, and is a certified Functional Medicine practitioner (IFMCP) through the Institute for Functional Medicine. He now maintains a private practice in San Diego, California, and sees clients from all over the world virtually.
    Dr. Saladino is a leading authority on the science and application of the carnivore diet. He has used this diet to reverse autoimmunity, chronic inflammation and mental health issues in hundreds of patients, many of whom had been told their conditions were untreatable. In addition to his personal podcast, Fundamental Health, he can be found featured on numerous podcasts including The Minimalists, The Model Health Show, Bulletproof Radio, The Dr. Gundry Podcast, The Ben Greenfield Podcast, Dr. Mercola, Health Theory, Mark Bell’s Power Project, and many others. He has also appeared on The Doctors TV show and authored the bestselling book, “The Carnivore Code: Unlocking the Secrets to Optimal Health by Returning to our Ancestral Diet.”

    The carnivore diet has given me my life back. According to my mother, I was “born constipated.” As an infant, my pediatrician recommended adding karo syrup to my formula to help me poop. It only helped a little, but it certainly turned me into the Michelin baby! I was on the chunky side as a kid, despite being active in dance and gymnastics. I should also add that I primarily ate fruits and vegetables and I continued to be suuuuper constipated and suffered from chronic nausea and stomach pain. When I finally saw a specialist as a tween, I was told that there was nothing wrong with me, but that I needed to see a psychiatrist. I spent the remainder of my teenage years seeing therapist after therapist. I got a bit slimmer due to increased physical activity, but the psychotherapy did absolutely nothing to help my constant stomach pain. After college, I moved to LA and became a (dun, dun, DUN...) VEGAN. At that point, I was having to get colonics every week and take 5+ aloe vera capsules just to poop at all. And I **felt** like poop to boot. I thought veganism was supposed to be the pinnacle of health! In a possibly unrelated turn of events, I also developed multiple sclerosis. Now, I’m not claiming “post hoc ergo propter hoc,” but I’m also not ruling out the diathesis-stress model. Again, my doctors repeatedly dismissed my medical issues and referred me to psychiatrists. At long last, I got a proper diagnosis and my doctor told me to start eating meat immediately. There was some improvement, but I was still eating tons of fruits and vegetables because my doctor had recommended the paleo diet. I learned to manage the MS symptoms fairly quickly and, to be fair, I have a very “mild” case of MS. But the constipation was intolerable. I somehow managed to get a master’s degree and I became a psychological researcher and a marriage and family therapist, but I could do little more than go to class a few times a week, see clients for the absolute bare minimum hours per week that were required to complete the internship, and the rest of my time was spent taking laxatives and waiting for them to kick in. So here I am with all these credentials, but no energy to put them to good use. During the pandemic, I watched a lot of videos on TH-cam and I stumbled upon a video about the carnivore diet. I had read The Fiber Menace, and had cut out all fruit as well as high fiber vegetables, but it wasn’t enough. I went all-in with the carnivore diet and had the first easy, normal, complete bowel movement of my entire life within a few days. I’ve been a carnivore for 6 weeks now and I’m thriving! Did it cure MS? No. I will always have MS, but the symptoms are even easier to manage now that my stomach doesn’t hurt all the time. Actually, my stomach doesn’t hurt AT ALL. I am so appreciative of medical professionals who think beyond what conventional medicine teaches. The carnivore diet has given me genuine freedom for the first time in my life. From the bottom of my healthy heart, THANK YOU.

I’ve been meat-based ketovore, but not fully carnivore for almost a month now, and I absolutely thrive on it. It’s good to see others like yourself stumble onto the same knowledge and put it into practice with amazing results!

When I was a vegan most of my diet was about 20 supplements to make up for some of the deficiencies it creates, I ate a shitload of tortilla chips and hummus. I also spent a lot of time at taco bell with the bean burrito fresca style. The only thing I cheated with was dha from animals, because you can't get it even in an artificial form as a vegan. They claim you can gain it from seaweed, but there is no evidence humans utilize the nutrients in seaweed to naturally create dha

They attempt to "poison" their predatory and send out signaling chemicals in their area indicating they are under attack and others in their species should up their defensive "poison" content in their cells. People forget plant flora has been at war for millions of years with slower moving insects before the first vertebrate climbed out of the sea.

    Thank you so much for this. It explains so many of my fatigues as a child and youth even up until today. The past year I have tested both vegan AND complete meat/animal product only diets for months each, and I came to the very same conclusion: - The hunter-gatherer Palaeolithic/neolithic diets, pre-agriculture made me far better in all aspects, from energy, to general well-being, overall health and so on.
    I live in Oslo Norway, a city which has its share of pollutants, exhaust etc. but most of my problems turned out to be dietary, and I suddenly became very aware that I had not been getting enough B12, D3, or K2 in my "normal" / bread-potato-plant based diets that had been my main source for decades. I suddenly understood both the cravings for meat, liver-pate, and fish - and remembered how fatigued I was all the time when I trusted just to bread and potatoes etc to sustain me throughout the days.
    Meat got a very bad "rep" in Norway back in the 70's and 80s when I grew up - as if it was somehow "sinful", extravagant or a sign of waste or something only really wasteful rich people did. Very culturally based and biased you might say, form the old very harsh protestantic religious values of the 1800's that still echoed even into those decades.
    As the 1990s came, I think we all became aware of the hunter gatherer based diet, and discussions were all the rage that entire decade, and I remember I always felt that yes, the more natural thing for a human being back then must have been hunting and meat, since really energy rich plants are almost nowhere to be found here in Scandinavia, most certainly before the potato.

      @miguelespejel2462 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @Mike Jones Here are the only plant based foods that from my research I have found to be "safe" but you still should eat them in moderation. All these foods now are very low in most of the items in my list with some exceptios that I will explain how to avoid.
      Hemp seeds: high oxalates. Fermentation is needed to reduce them. 36 hours in water, 3 tbs odmf salt and one tablespoon of lemon or apple vinegar per every cup. Bake them after fermentation until dry. You can eat them safety after that process. Why the effort is worth? This little f*ers hace extremely high amounts of magnesium which is hard to get naturally from food. The potassium content is also good and omega 3.
      Zuchinni: high lectins/high salicylate. Avoid it by peeling the skin and removing all seeds. Stir fry them in butter at high temp. No more than two per day.
      Bell Pepper high lectins. Same method as zuchini. No more than one medium size or 4 small ones per day.
      Brocolli (heads only): high salicylates /high glucosinolates. Stir fry them in butter at high temperature. Only 5 per day.
      Carrott: moderate salicylates/moderate oxalates. Same method a zuchini. Up to 4 a day.
      Green beans moderate phytates/moderate oxalates. Stir fry in butter at high temperature. A handful a day is acceptable.
      Avocado half a day or 1/4 if is a big avocado.
      Pili nuts high lectins and phylates. Soak them in salt water for 24 hours and bake them or sun dry them. A handful is fine this nuts are incredible because of the high monosaturaded fat which is strange in nuts. They have basically zero carb and lots of nutrients.
      Now the best ones:
      Chayote (and a actual fruit). Low in everything! Still you want to peel the skin and remove the seed and you will have the only plant based food with zero toxins and antinutrients. This is a fruit but cock it like a vegetable. Eat as many as you wish.
      Macadamia. Really incredible nut. Low in everything and virtually zero if you soak them in water and bake them. Eat as many as you wish.
      There is nothing else out there sorry... I challenge anyone to prove me wrong.

    I first got interested in green issues over 40 years ago . At that time overpopulation was front and centre of the ecological argument . Even though I have been on the vegetarian / vegan spectrum for most of that time , I am completely baffled as to how this ' eat less meat to save the planet ' idea became so easily accepted . Industrialised agriculture just trashes biodiversity and top soil health . Green is not always good . My county of Kent UK used to be covered in orchards full of seasonal fruit . Most of those have gone and been replaced by wheat fields and the euro seed oil crop - rapeseed . To see these crops ( which are subsidised by governments ) grown in large amounts for no good reason is very depressing . Moreover the farmers ripped up miles of biodiverse hedgerows so they could maximise the land for crop yields . The good news ( !? ) is that the farmers now get subsidies to put hedgerows back or to set aside small areas for re-wilding . .

    As an Indian, who was born in a vegetarian family. It was considered grossly sinful to eat meat. We had a set of tenants who had wrongfully occupied our land and were highly muscular meat eating family. My mother raised me and other brothers inspiring/urging us to get stronger, and more muscular, but on the other hand we had no idea about what is the right food eat after intense workout. On top of that my mother always fed us high sugar content milk tea to which i was addicted until a few years ago. I could never figure out the reason for good health of the tenant family until a few years ago. While i was always working out intensely in teen ages, i couldn't grow beyond a certain point in my physical size. There was always misinformation spread in Indian society about vegetarianism being the most healthy way of living. Luckily some content of milk in the tea might have helped me acquire a certain cognitive ability to be able to diagnose my own ailments.

    There are numerous studies showing people who had moderate consumption of alcohol (2 to 3 drinks a day) live longer than non drinkers. In the Mediterranean, some of the longest lived populations live on islands and consume alcohol, mostly red wines, regularly. They also are primarily plant eaters. It appears that grains are not a major component of their diet, at least in the form of breads, but they do consume various forms of pasta. There is almost no processed food, as in the west, and when they eat meat, it is often chicken and goat or lamb the kill themselves. Surprisingly, fish is eaten only rarely. My observation is that they are not obese, but not exactly skinny either. They possess a joie de vivre surpassing most of what I've witnessed in the west.

I have chickens so the eggs are free, the chickens are helping with pest control in the garden. when im organised I buy my meat from a paddock to plate farmer so its grass fed about 10k up the road. Meanwhile the vegan or vegetarian eats vegetables that are grown all over the world. Drinking almond milk when most of the almonds are grown in the USA so they have to be flown to where I live across the world, not to mention the pesticides, the fertilizers that are used on mostly mono grown crops. 16 months in on the carnivore diet not always super strict but mostly, my hair has grown so thick, my tryglicerides are lower than my doctors (he was shocked) my cholestorol has gone up a little which I dont mind at all, Im feeling so much stronger, no more aching joints.
    I think to succeed on this diet you have to think of food as refueling and not be a foody, but its nice not thinking about food and eating once a day with no hunger is really good. 21kilo down in weight so far with a little bit more to go - thank you carnivore diet!

    Interesting about turmeric, a high oxalate food used extensively in Indian cooking. My observations support the link between oxalates and vulvodynia As an OB nurse I’ve often wondered why so many Indian patients have such pain when we examine them in labor. Many are so fearful of being touched that they absolutely shrink away in fear if we try to check them for labor progress. I often emerge from their labor room shaking my head and marveling that they managed to ever have sex and get pregnant in the first place. I used to think it was a cultural thing, that perhaps these women had been sexually abused. But the sheer number of patients with those symptoms made that hard to believe. Now I believe that in many cases this pain and subsequent fear of being examined during labor is a result of oxalates in the diet.

    My only "criticism", such as it is, is the same criticism I have of "studies" showing the harmful effects of animal products, and that is the source and quality of the foods. For instance if a study showing animal products to be harmful does not distinguish between industrially raised/grown animal products and pastured organic sources, I dismiss the study out of hand. And I have to give these studies on the flip side the same scrutiny, because the food I grow in my garden and the food you buy at Walmart, and the food that was probably given these test subjects, are not the same. But otherwise, great talk. I am keto-paleo and I have never looked or felt better.

    The biggest surprise for me was how meat doesn't actually make you constipated. Also my tongue literally dislikes veggies as I did as a child, there's a reason why kids love meat and not veggies.

    It's interesting to me that when historical novels describe the meals the rich ate in the early 1800s, it's one fish or meat dish after another with a small bowl of potatoes or some sort of vegetables, but it's obvious that it's mainly meat they're eating often with rich sauces. I always thought that was kinda weird, but maybe they knew something we don't.

    41:34 I'm one of those women. I have interstitial cystitis, which is a pelvic pain disorder. There's a list of foods that trigger pain, and anything with high oxalates is on either the "it'll probably cause a flare up" list or the "avoid like the plague" list. Interestingly enough, there are no meats on either of those lists (except artificially cured meats and highly processed meat products and such). I'm watching this video because lately, everything I eat causes a flare up. Well, everything except plain meat. IC is a mystery illness, but some doctors think it's autoimmune. So, it's all making sense what you're saying. A lot of people do better on a paleo diet, but I bet nobody would dare mention the carnivore diet in a support group. It just sounds too crazy. Well you know what else is crazy? My bladder attacking itself and doctors having no idea why. I can't wait to try this and see if I can finally live without pain.

    I've got to be honest...I jumped on the Whole Food Based Diet Kick because I am 54 and wanted to have clear blood vessels. Those professionals pushing Plant-Based claim that eating green leafy vegetables like Kale and Arugula will increase your body's Nitric-Oxide. I tried it for 4 weeks and had nothing but bad gas and stomach issues to the point I could not go to meetings and family gatherings despite all efforts to make adjustments like removing beans and cabbage. Oh, and I was hungry all the time. So I gave carnivore a try and I can say by eating a 50/50 ratio of fat /Protein I have more energy and have great pumps in my workouts. So my Nitric-oxide levels must be good. Can anybody explain the topic of Nitric-Oxide production on the Carnivore Diet?

    • @pondboy3682
      @pondboy3682 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Nitric oxide is produced by your body, using the amino acid L-Arginine present in many foods, animal or plant. L-Citrulline first found in watermelons has recently headlined as another key player that can be stored longer and converted into L-Arginine for use in the body. Many body builders suggest mega-dosing with both amino acids, especially L-Citrulline as it's harder to get "enough" with food.
      My best understanding, however, is that NO- has two functions: reducing inflammation, and increasing blood flow. So, how much is "enough" to increase blood flow when you have no significant inflammation to fix?
      Eating a pre-neolithic ancestral diet is generally a good idea for all health issues, and as you indicated, it seems to be working for you. It's probably because you're not being inflamed by all that kale, arugula, polyunsaturated oils and sugar! Keep up the good work!

Guess what i did at 4am? I cooked and ate about 1 pound of ground and flap beef. I drank concentrated sea water and 2 sips of coconut water. Felt much better after. I'm going to skip the coconut water next time. I think I was just very hungry!!!

    Happy reading to all.
    Alexander Ugolev, a famous Russian scientist who devoted his life to studying human digestive physiology, conducted an interesting experiment using two dead frogs: one cooked and one raw. He placed each into a beaker filled with a carnivore’s stomach acid (principally hydrochloric acid, HCl) and recorded the results. The raw frog was completely dissolved, while the cooked frog underwent only a moderate surface change and remained largely intact.
    The way most of us have conceived the digestive process since junior high school “health” classes is something like this: Food goes in…body’s acidic gastric juices go to work…juices break down food…body absorbs the good stuff, expels the bad stuff. Implicit here is the notion that food itself is passive in all this, that food gets digested, but doesn’t itself do anything.
    Ugolev showed that (apart from the most obvious mode of digestion via our own digestive enzymes) there is also a process of self-digestion of food-“autolysis” is the technical term-carried out by enzymes within the food itself. Here’s the key: While ordinary digestion takes place no matter what we put into our mouths, autolysis happens only when the food we consume is raw.
    We do not digest by gastric juices alone. Every living cell is equipped to self-destruct when the conditions for that process are met. The agents of that self-destruction: those very enzymes which are part of every cell’s makeup. A seed, for example, when soaked, uses its activated enzymes to digest the nutrients inside, providing the new seedling with the boost of energy it needs to grow. The seed itself ceases to exist, while the seedling takes off and becomes a new plant. Or think about the carcass of a dead animal: Give it some time, and it will be literally “digested” by its own enzymatic activity, initiated from within.
    So what, exactly, happened to the frogs? Once the raw frog made contact with the HCl, Ugolev noted, hydrogen ions from the acid immediately started permeating the animal’s cells, destroying the cells’ lysosomes and releasing the powerful enzymes within. Those enzymes got straight to work, digesting the frog’s body-the very body of which they were part. Working together, the HCl and the animal’s own enzymes were able to completely digest it.
    In the case of the cooked frog, its enzymes had been destroyed by heat, and thus the HCL could only affect the external tissues of the animal. When the HCl was chemically exhausted, that was the end of the digestive process. If the hydrochloric acid was solely responsible for digestion, then both frogs would have been totally digested. The raw frog underwent a total digestion thanks to the process of autolysis.
    The reason…When you eat raw, you’re eating living food. Food whose enzymes remain ready to work and to extract the full measure of nutrition available in what you’ve so wisely chosen to consume. You’ll enjoy eating nutritious raw foods. But moreover, by lessening your body’s digestive load in this way, you’ll also benefit from a feeling of lightness, bountiful energy, and an almost indescribable sensation of quiet comfort.
    It’s a natural law-all life forms were meant to exist on live food. Humans are no exception. Though we’re capable of using cooked food for our needs to some degree, we pay for this compromise in the currency of deteriorating health and hastened aging. Consider this: relentlessly consuming cooked meals is quite literally following the path of our own self-destruction.
    What we need instead: food that self-destructs!
    So, enjoy your meat - RAW.

You can do an N=1... it's free, it will save you substantial money on groceries, and you will know in a few weeks to a month if you feel better. Also, you can do N=1 a few months before a Dr visit and check your bio markers... if they improve, what does 3rd party science matter?

    Funny think I’ve been telling my family and friends for decades I’m a carnivore to justify that I didn’t eat greens that I wasn’t a cow to eat grass. It turns out I was right all along I have hypothyroidism cruciferous vegetables actually can make me sick. I’m not joking I HATE green, I hate the smell I hate the taste I even hate the color. I was passionate about hating green. Funny enough I LOVE meat with the same passion. Who knew that my body Knew what needed & didn’t needed despite what DR said I did. Because people insisted I had to to have greens to be healthy I used to take something called DIM. Is a powder form of greens once I stopped taking it was life changing. A lot of my issues stopped.

    Just checking if anyone here has experience with any of the following - maintaining carnivore having had a 1.) total colectomy 2.) total hysterectomy.
    Unfortunately I can’t afford to see a functional dr right now. The last two years have exhausted al my funds seeking help from traditional medical drs and continuously being hospitalized.
    I just turned 40 and had my colon removed when I was a minor (age 17). The full hysterectomy was recommended by drs to solve idiopathic anemia - which of course helped nothing and learned how much I need my ovaries after they were gone.
    Long story short, I’ve been keto for a year and have seen some improvement. Started carnivore last week. I’ve had chronic diarrhea for over a decade and began taking psyllium husk for bulking and electrolyte retention due to not having the colon and take maca for hormone balance due to my lady parts being stupidly removed. Have had eczema since childhood, migraines as well and just wondering if these few plant supplements will sabotage any further progress. It’s kind of a unique situation being our ancestors didn’t cut their colons, uterus’, and ovaries out 🤬
