Eat just like that meal she showed you and STOP when you're comfortably full. I've lost 74 lbs. doing this. I did it slowly over the course of 6 years. I never get sick. I'm old. It's working for me.
If all you eat is meats then you'll be fine by your strategy. Most people need variety. Even a slight diversion will completely fudge this operation.
Jordan Peterson eats only steak, cured everything & he maintains his highschool weight
I 100% agree with you and I lost 96 lbs over a 12 month period via the bulk of my diet consisting of steak and eggs along with other high protein sources. That was in 2021 and I continue eating that way to this day and have kept the weight off.
@@stevewenners Sure, but his brain is fucked, so there's that.
@@MTB2139
What type of exercise are you doing?
Congrats on weight loss.
I think there are variables most of physicians miss. Idk maybe I'm wrong but sex age activity level & amount of $ you can put in to type of food vitiams supplements.
This is brilliant. Finally someone said it - stop overeating. I do little exercise and I eat 2x a day. I do not eating piles of meat but smaller amounts. I have been losing weight consistently and its been amazing. As well, the diabetes slowly calming down. My blood sugars can still reach rather high and I would be considered pre-diabetic as opposed to full on diabetic on pills and insulin. The medications are all gone and I am doing amazing.
How long have you been doing???
We have to listen to all the experts on keto/carnivore and try to figure out which approach is better suited for our body type. We're all different. We have to become our own expert for what works for us. They are all great don't get me wrong. It's just a matter of figuring out what works best for our body.
YOU ARE CLEARLY MISUNDERSTOOD…
I eat tons of food and still don’t gain weight and its because i eat a low fat diet.
What would be the proper way to do this diet with only ground beef? And wanting to gain weight/muscle?
Great points, and thank you for showing my account this time!
It’s true, people who are not 6’5” lifters with a very active lifestyle should not emulate the portion sizes and macro nutrition levels that I consume. I state this often.
And yes, very important that people don’t eat as much as they can, as that will lead to weight gain. There was a lot of discussion on this topic on my social media lately where people disagreed with me as they stated calories don’t matter, and referenced how they increased calories on keto/carnivore and lost weight. I made the same points as you about metabolic and hormonal changes (input affecting output).
Keep up the good work, it’s great that you are helping others to improve their health! 🙏🏻💪🏻
I enjoy your steak and egg pictures very much, Zack

19 Months carnivore for me. Lion diet. And I don't count calories. I eat til full, and only when hungry. I have lost 7kgs, but my waist is down 4 belt sizes.
And the health benefits were extreme !! PS. I did this for health, not weight.
And I have stopped 6 medications so far.
> I did this for health, not weight.
**perfect** !
Started Keto in March. Have counted my calories/macros and stayed on track, minus my carbs (lower than 5%). I've lost 60lbs and have only "worked out", twice. I have recently adjusted my fat and protein to help with muscle mass loss. I'm down almost 110lbs in a year. It's worth it. I'm 48yo and haven't felt this good in years.
I am a 5'6" female on the carnivore diet for a couple years. I eat all the meat I want and remain at 118 pounds.
The key is "I want." Many ppl w food addiction are addicted to feeling overstuffed and will overeat. They don't feel their body's satiety signals because they have a long habit of overriding them. You clearly don't have that issue thank goodness! 🙏
@msbeecee1 That may be the case with me. I don't think I ever ate excessive amounts. I did drop 25 pounds fairly quickly when I went on carnivore even though I ate until I was full and never felt hungry.
@@msbeecee1Except that it's really hard overeating on keto. Nobody from people I know like it. And can't try it even for a day. But rice, potatoes, pastry or sweet bevareges. No problemo. Or foods where meats are inside of some dough Or with some steamed dumplings and gravy.
You aren't getting any magnesium and potassium, or vitamin C or K2 for that matter, but otherwise you're spot on. I'm gonna guess you exercise also which is good
@playerzero2236 most carnivores take electrolytes so they get potassium & magnesium thru that. And it's been shown carnivores require less vite c. Fresh meat provides adequate vitamins, especially if eating organs. High sugar diet depletes many vites and that is the diet RDA were developed under.
Dr Boz. Perfect brilliant. Four years on Keto. Definitely 100% facts. First two months I ate protein like crazy because honestly I was craving carbs and when I got cravings I'd feed it eggs and steak. But after a while you hit this place and you might think, "I'm getting bored doing keto," NO!!.....you're not getting bored your body is getting fat adapted and wants to burn those fat stores around your waist. That is where intermittent fasting comes in and you eat only when hungry. Trust me nothing tastes better then a ribeye with cauliflower rice after a good 16 hour fast. Not boing just you're eating to live and thrive not for entertainment.
True. I am from 37bmi to 23bmi.
First I am doing Atkin.
Then I change to clean atkin & intermitant fasting. It works.
Green salad, beef, chicken, eggs, it is so heaven food during break fasting.
i've been a carnivore for six months now and it's been fabulous and it's broken down my auto immune incredibly. I feel better than I ever have but I don't stuff myself in over eight. I'll probably eat a steak a day some yogurt lots of water maybe some liver slices/pate best that I've ever been on and I don't call it a diet. It's a change of life because of what it's done for me. I've lost 57 pounds and will continue. I just had major surgery on my knee so it's taking a little while, but not gained any water gain, of course but that fluctuates up and down and it goes right back to the same way I could never do it before because I was on keto and had too many of the fake keto food which was not real food. It didn't stop my craving for sweets. I'm not ever hungry, my blood pressure is great so there's my take on this. And I haven't found a doctor yet who believes in it that we can actually have an appointment with mostly they're all programmed to think keto and carnivores bad. Just a few thoughts.
I have switched to OMAD. It has been the most beneficial diet for me. You are spot on with your points. Once I am at my goal weight, I plan on 2 meals due to family time. They will be confined to 4 hours of the day. I feel this is a solid plan for the long term that is something that I can be consistent with.
Interesting. I recently went to a 5-hour meal window . 👌
I fell into OMAD kind of by accident and finding it’s working really well for me as well. Mostly huge salads with chicken and avocado, but also Indian dishes with broccoli or broccoli rice. Mentally easy to stick with and physically better in general because I eat at about 4pm (pretty hungry by then since it’s 1st meal of day) so have time for metabolism to start to work before I go to bed. I don’t wake up hungry or go to bed hungry - just way my mind and body works.
@@goofsaddggkle7351 / Nice to hear 👍
I think you just illustrated an important point. Though in many ways it is about the easiest diet plan to make, it is not a mindless diet.
Great advice. I stopped measuring my glucose and ketones and stopped losing. Now that I’m measuring again, the pounds are coming off. Thank you Dr Boz for helping me turn this around.
Is there information on how to measure please, on Boz channel or elsewhere that you used to learn how to measure?
Always the best and informative. I'm 74 and we use to not see more fat people, diabetes, heart problems and other problems. This is why I watch EVERY one of your videos. Thanks for helping America get back to good health.
I'm a total carnivore by need. Your explanation in this vid is spot on. I have had to reduce my intake of protein on occasion . Fat however, is my friend.
I think its the opposite. The problem with most people run into with Keto/carnivore diets is they consume too much fat not protein. Keto is not supposed to be about high fat. It’s supposed to be about cutting carbs. At least 30% of our calories should be protein.
Protein is for rebuilding and maintenance. Most regular people don't need to eat a ton of it - especially if they're not exercising for competitions or goals. And fat is essential for life too with its vitamins and minerals.. it is most nourishing for us and food for our brains so we shouldn't skimp on fat ever - you can't overeat fat either.. you'd vomit! And bodyfat is fuel.
@@stephens9462 In my view, you have it utterly backwards. I've been keto for a decade. The first six months was difficult because I was getting too much protein and not enough fat. Once I limited my protein to a single modest portion per day, I had zero problems entering a state of ketosis. Ketosis = fat adaptation.
By the way, you contradict yourself with your last sentence. "At least 30% of our calories should be protein". This means that up to 70% of calories would come from fat, depending on how much carbohydrate is restricted. Since the entire point of keto is restricting (if not eliminating) all non-fiber carbs, at least 60% of calories would be coming from fat. That has the amount of fat being *double* the amount of protein. This contradicts the thesis you started out with.
I have since switched to carnivore, with amazing results. My diet is similar to what is pictured in that post, except that it's not that much, and I eliminate the egg whites, and add at least 1/2 stick of butter, if not more.
@@y00t00b3rHey! I have some questions, out of curiosity. How much protein do you eat per day? There are opinions out there that we should not consume less than 1g of protein per 1lbs of our (desired)/weight. Do you live by that, or limit proteins even more? Do you weightlift by any chance? Do you do maintenance or strive for caloric deficit?
Right now, since I have switched to carnivore, have no idea. I eat 10 ounces of ribeye, plus some bacon and 4 egg yolks. So that's 300+ grams of protein. So I'm not currently limiting protein like I used to. But I make sure that I'm eating enough fat and butter, which automatically satisfies the appetite and keeps my fat to protein ratio about where I want it.
I do not lift weights much. I ride my bike a lot, up mountain roads at high altitude.
When I was keto, I limited my protein to 100g. By the way, in my view the rule of thumb is closer to 1 gram per kilo, not one gram per pound.
I do not strive for caloric deficit; I do not count calories at all. I would have no idea at all whether or not I'm anywhere near a caloric deficit.
I am exceeding the amount of protein that I "should" be eating. I have been amazed that the rules are quite different when you go full carnivore. I dismissed carnivore for a decade, because keto was working just fine, and eating this much protein seemed ridiculous.

Dr. Boz, another good video. Thank you for the work you are doing in this space. It is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Love your videos Dr.Boz. I started the Keto diet about 1 week ago so trying to absorb as much info as I can and im finding different things in your videos that I havent heard elsewhere. Thank you Beautiful😍
This video was a great reminder! Thank you!
He isn't able to eat like that because of the way he looks he looks like that cause he eats like that! Don't know why you let people scare you away from protein! Stop worrying about weight it really doesn't matter you want to be healthy concentrate on lean mass and that will take care of the rest!
Bingo. Sometimes these diet gurus go overboard. We all need plenty of protein.
Finally a great explanation...
WOW! You really understand all of this. Brilliant! Enough of everything but not too much of anything.
Wow 😊very interesting information! Grateful ❤
Great video ! Very informative . . thank you !!
Great information from a fine doctor.
yes! this is why I gained weight originally when starting carnivore diet! great video!
Your words are gold to me.
Thank you so much for the clarification! I'm at the 8 week(ish) time frame. I have lost only 3 pounds. Clearly, I am over eating and now need to stress my metabolism. My main reason for going keto is to heal my brain as i suffer from vestibular migraine. I sprained my ankle, so I have a bit of a temporary hiccup. Luckily, I do have access to a sauna in our gym membership. I am thankful for your videos. This is definitely a journey with a learning curve.
Been plagued with headaches and migraines 50 years, since I can remember. On keto and even much better now for 4 years on carnivore I have maybe just 1% of that. That is amazing. Among myriad of other problems gone of course, diabetes, NAFLD, GERD, GI problems of all kinds, ...
But my main mistake when started keto 7 years ago were not paying attention to hidden carbs and still eating 5+ times per day. When I switched to eating max 2 times per day and stopped to drink milk which has daily max level of carbs in just half litre, ... all started to move fast. For that reason carnivore is the best, lowest carbs, top satiating effect. And do not forget to add salt which is most healthy. Love dr. Boz videos, still my main source for everything is dr. Ken Berry, then dr. Shawn Baker, dr. Antony Chaffee, ... especially for carnivore things. No offence intended. :-) On carnivore no worries about anything.
What did you do so far for your vestibular? Are you getting vertigo? Let me know cause I had this on and off and know about it .
Just do meat, salt and water. No learning curve whatsoever. Just listen to what your body wants and eat when hungry, salt to taste, drink to thirst levels. Nothing simpler or healthier 👍
@@richiemandina5305 Right on! I was keto for a decade. But I switched to carnivore about 4 months ago. Do you include a small amount of liver in your diet, as Dr. Berry recommends? I found it to be helpful, on a subjective "how I'm feeling" basis, when I added some liver. I also strive to get the fattiest cuts of meat I can get my hands on. And butter. Don't forget the butter!
@@y00t00b3r yeah man, carnivore is amazing. You'll never feel healthier than when eating only meat. But no I don't really mix in liver, but I do take a capsule of beef organ complex from Zen Principle every once in a while, maybe one capsule a week, if that, even though the bottle recommends 6 per day. Sometimes I don't remember to even do that. But it doesn't seem to matter, i think most people can get all the nutrients they need from beef skeletal muscle anyway. I do like making bone broth with beef marrow Bones and all my leftover chicken bones.
Thank you!
This answered, succinctly I might add, my question as to whether carnivore diet was right for me.
I don't need to lose weight; I could stand to gain a few pounds - but my biggest concern atage 64, is the need to rebuild muscle.
This brief video answered that question for me, and I am more confident now in my approach to starting carnivore
☺️
🛑Restrict Calories from the start imho! Why go 8 weeks without losing weight❓131 days for me losing FAT🐷today🙂. I'm eating eating OMAD(99% Meat🥩). 23.5 hr Fasting until the next days meal. Went from XXL Shirts🎽to Medium🎽& 48"👖Waist to 30". Blood Work💉Wed Sept 13 shows better than years ago! Cholesterol is good,Visceral Fat is going away,Fatty liver gone,Improved mental Clarity,Sharper Eyesight,healthy gums,Stomach Ulcer healed!💪
How many calories do you eat in that one meal?
@@gphillips3775 I'm not saying because someone will come a long and criticize it. Takes me a half hour to slowly eat it while watching TV. Had my blood work done Sept 13 and had better results than years ago and better than last Nov 2022.
That's some good solid advice Dr. When I saw the pic I was wondering where your message was going to go. BTW you look so much younger than you did 10 years ago. Bravo Dr.!
Try to eat 90 grams of protein per day❤….I weigh 100 pounds, I have gained about 4 pounds on Keto…however I do cheat with Gluten free biscuits that are mostly made of grass fed butter. Stay away from wheat products and you might gain weight. I only eat Avocado…not a bunch of weird vegetables because I have IBS. Hope this helps. I only fast during sleeping hours so much fast might be 14 to 15 hours? That is the time from my last meal in the evening to my late breakfast….
Thank you Dr Boz.
The issue with TH-cam dispite channels like this are helping people Is that suddenly just to keep uploading content Is that they discover something new each week Now carnivore diet is ok BUT... (and a picture of a plate full of protein that average people on carnivore can't even eat) Give us people that already choose a healthy diet breath a little bit What's next? A plate with 2 boil eggs saying "too little protein is ok BUT..." ?
Fair enough! Well-said Doc! Makes sense
Good job!
Dr Boz, how about speaking about Keto for those of us with familial high cholesterol? My doc doesn't like my high LDL (150) and wants me on a medication like Repatha. All my other numbers are great. Thanks from those of us with the high cholesterol genetics that do keto!
There's tons of education abt cholesterol on many carnivore channels... total cholesterol doesn't matter... Dr Boz has a chapter in her book KetoContinuum abt it. Also check Dr Cwyes for his excellent videos
Dr Berry says LDL should be over 200, HDL over 80, and TRIGLYCERIDES below 70.
get a new doctor
Thanks Doc. Another great vid. Did you make it just for me? Grin
I always try to have protein with fat. It’s the fat that is filling and takes away the need for more protein.
I eat way less on keto and carnivore. Carbs are high calorie and make me hungrier
Very true.
You can eat all that stuff, just don't stuff yourself. We need to recognize when we're full, just like on the Standard American Diet.
So that's what I've been doing wrong....
One of the things that I find is that on VLC is that I tend to be more satiated and no need for calorie counting, just follow my hunger signals.
Nice clarification, it's useful information for me. I've done really well on keto but I'm gaining a few pounds these days. I'm probably enjoying my keto diet too much. Ahem.
I actually ate A LOT of calories from low carb foods for a year and lost 40 lbs. Calories do not matter IF your insulin is low. Most people underestimate how much carbs they are eating or they eat weird low carb breads, etc. and wonder why their weight loss is stalling. For the average overweight person, keep your carbs below 50 grams/day. Watch it like a hawk; when in doubt assume you ate more not less carbs. If your weight loss is stalling, switch to only meat, eggs, butter for a while. I do not recommend cutting calories. You should eat till you are naturally full. If low carb is not working for you at all, I would try high carb with low unsaturated fat (especially low polyunsaturated fats) and high saturated fat (butter and coconut oil). That is what I am currently doing and I have lost a pant size in 8 weeks. If you do low carb for a long time, and especially if you eat a lot of polyunsaturated oils, your thyroid activity will be very sluggish. Believe it or not, there are a lot of strategies that you can use to lose body fat and get healthy. Not everyone's metabolism is the same and you may need to tweak your diet. But in my opinion, cutting calories is not a good long term solution. The main reason obesity is now a problem, in my opinion, is because of all the polyunsaturated oils the average person consumes. If there is one recommendation I could give you to improve your health, cut out the polyunsaturated oils.
What about gluconeogenesis? Protein and other carb precursors can be used to make glucose. True or false?
true. But being strict carnivore allows one to eat far more protein than on plain 'ol keto, as long as you are getting enough fat. I was keto for a decade before I tried carnivore, and I've been amazed at the amount of protein I've been able to down. Ribeye steaks are delicious!
when I was on regular keto, I had to restrict my protein to 100g per day. failing to do so resulted in gluconeogenesis, and kicked me out of ketosis.
I have read your book, Dr B, and I note the amount of protein one is allowed. It seems minuscule and I gather I am meant to eat fat instead. That’s too much fat. I may be wrong. Ken Berry says the opposite ie eat as much meat until you are ‘stuffed’ as he put it.
carnivore is a special form of keto. I switched to carnivore about 4 months ago, after being keto for about a decade. I have been amazed to see how much protein I can eat, as long as I get enough fat. (yay, butter!)
but for keto, follow Dr. Boz advice. When I first started keto, I could not get into ketosis at all for the first six months, until I restricted my protein intake to a single, modest serving per day.
I learned that there's no such thing as too much fat. You could theoretically eat too much fat, but you'll never actually want to consume that much.
If you want to do carnivore, follow Dr. Berry's advice. If you want to do keto, follow Dr. Boz.
Also: take note that Dr. Berry buys the fattiest cuts of beef he can get his hands on. I buy my own whole ribeye, and I cut it myself into steaks, because the goofballs at the grocery store trim off all the fat. (the best part!!)
Hello,OMAD & CARNIVORE higher fat than protein with prebiotic salads will work? Thank you
Hi Dr Boz, My wife had to have her gallbladder removed. Is it possible for her to do a KETO diet? Thanks
So I am an athlete, and do intensive weight training 5x a week, then a meal like this (By Zack Strength) on a Keto diet is fine? (After the 6-8 week glutton stage?)
That's exactly what you should eat for NAFLD. You eat until full and save the rest for your next meal. After a month or so your portions will get smaller.
I blew it when I started keto. I was trying to carefully measure out my protein and fat ratios. I’m going by what people were telling me I needed, and I was trying to minimize my food and it took me a good three months to become fully found adaptive to where I stopped having low blood sugar crashes, and getting weak and shaky when I wasn’t eating. It finally kicked in but I should’ve been eating more fat during that phase. I got through it but even a year and a half later after losing probably about 185 pounds I just stopped losing weight and tried restricting calories and changing what I was eating and substituting with different types of foods and went about six months, righteous bow surround within two or 3 pounds, no matter what I did including fasting.
I found eventually that my problem was I needed more Protane and I wasn’t getting enough and I started adding a couple pieces of chicken into what I had been eating pretty much every single day and started losing weight again because I wasn’t getting enough protein and my body was trying to store the fat Longer to the white kind of fat for long-term storage instead of the brown fat that I could burn. It still seems odd to think that now in the last few months, I’ve lost another 40 pounds by adding food to what I was already eating. There are so many different factors involve that counting calories or counting carbs is all just part of a huge equation. I eat well over 2000 cal a day sometimes over 3000 up from probably around 2000 a day and it’s working somehow.
At this point, I’m trying to learn these things to fine-tune it. I’m down 200 pounds but I’d still like to lose another 35 or 40 but it’s been hard even sticking to a very clean, very strict keto, diet and alternating into carnivore, I rarely have more than 25 net carbs a day I try to concentrate all of that on things to feed my gut biome. My metabolism still hasn’t kicked in fully, I don’t know how long that takes, but I’ve been eating very clean for a couple years now, about 27 months. I’m starting to watch more of these videos again because I’m trying to learn all these metabolic tweaks involved and fully understand the science behind all of this, but I think you have to rebuild your metabolism. You have to provide your body with the nutrients it needs in good bio available forms, but I see a lot of people on the carnivore and keto that still can’t lose weight for exactly this reason they just eat a ton of meat. I’m 6 foot and 235 pounds my mom is 5 foot four and probably 140 pounds and she eats about twice the meat I do every day And she eats pretty much no carbs most days and is almost pure carnivore, but she complains that she can’t lose weight even though she’s not eating carbs but won’t take the time to learn the stuff. I’ve explain to her that carbs aren’t what make you fat? It’s just triggering your insulin but you can’t eat a ton of calories on top of that and expect to lose weight. I think you need to figure out your protein requirements and start aiming to achieve those, we can’t just sit there and eat bacon all day and be skinny, unless were very physically active and for older people, and people like myself With herniated discs and two bad knees, I can’t just go out there and run and lift weights all day and there’s no way I could handle eating a meal that big, the biggest meal I probably had was four eggs and a piece of chicken with a little spinach thrown in. I don’t think I could even eat what’s on that plate now but I see people eat that for breakfast and then go eat another meal or two during the day And I never see how they do it but I can see it if you’re like Sean Baker or somebody who’s a bodybuilder and working out so much. I think it’s important that we build as much muscle mass as we can. We don’t have to be a bodybuilder, but we need a good amount of muscle mass And I exercise as much as I can but people get older and people who aren’t able to do that much physical activity. We have to learn to cut way back and limit the calories as well as the carbs and I think it’s a fine line and fasting is easy but when we’re eating, we’ve just got to keep tweaking that diet And make sure we’re eating the right kinds of proteins and feeding our gut biome and our metabolism and it takes a lot of research to get there. I could sit down and tell somebody in 10 minutes how to lose 80% of their weight but they get that last 20 or 30 pounds off is going to be really difficult for a lot of people And a lot of Keto people are out there telling us we can just eat bacon and steaks and hamburgers all day long and that’s just not the case. Someone with a good metabolism who’s gotten to be fat adaptive, and is very physically active, they can get away with that and they can put some carbs in there too, but She’s right unless you’re that person with a lot of muscle mass and continuing to stay very active, there’s no way you’re going to do it without putting on weight. That was always my problem with the Atkins diet saying carbs are bad. You can eat as much meat as you want, it just doesn’t work for everybody. And I tried pretty much all carnivore diet like that. I stayed at 350 pounds. I could not get below it eating the meat and I had to cut way back. I had to cut what I was normally eating in half. I do well with some of the vegetables and stick more to the Keto side. I’m not pure carnivore, but I’ll do carnivore for a few days at a time or maybe a week or two, but even with no carbs unless you’re out there working hard and burning that fat off, your body’s gonna store it and you’re gonna gain weight still
Awesome dude! Way to go! I hear ya. I practice intermittent fasting. I started a little over 4 years ago along with a daily exercise routine. I didn’t have as much to lose as you but now I’m just trying to lose that last little bit around my waist and pecs and it’s a bitch. I started doing an extended fast from 5pm Friday to 9am Sunday. 38 weeks in a row so far. I’ve lost 5 pounds. That’s it.
I would have thought my body would react to a weekly 40 hour fast, but it didn’t. Not really anyways. I’m not even sure if that’s why I lost the 5lbs. I didn’t lose any weight for 26 weeks, then I took on a project at home.
3x a week I was getting 10-80lb bags of quikrete. So that required loading them in my van, unloading them 2 at a time into a wheelbarrow, wheeling them 150’ into the house, unloading them onto a pallet, then mixing them one at a time and pouring them into a slab. Did that for 6 weeks (18 slabs) and that’s when I lost the weight.
That was on top off my normal workouts. That’s moving 800lbs 4.5x/3x a week for 6 weeks. I say 4.5 because I only count the wheelbarrow move as .5. My body is just stubborn as hell! 🤣
I’m seeing results. They’re just really slow, but what do you expect at 57? I’m sure if I was younger I’d have lost all the fat in no time.
I’m not losing any muscle mass or strength with IF and weekly fasts. That has to mean something.
😬
keep plugging away! it took me six months to get keto working when I first started a decade ago.
perhaps your body is searching for nutrients that it is missing? I switched to carnivore about 4 months ago, and I started feeling much better when I added a small amount of liver to my diet.
Did you show a sample plate of what to eat then?
And what’s your opinion on Dr Ted Naiman’s P:E Diet, which isn’t an unlimited protein diet but it is a high protein diet where everyone has a specific daily target?
FINALLLLY!!!
Question...if one eats keto ( lots of animal protein only ) I think the development of gout is in the tube...
I know people eating loads of meat ( pork, meat broth etc ) developed serious signs of gout...ok they where not keto their meat consumption was combined with dumplings, noodles etc...and they drank alcohol...
I told them to stop the overconsumption the animal protein altogether ( eat green veggies only) and stop drinking...
first they thought that I am a weirdo ( but not having gout or any similar )...
as their pains became so severely they decided to give my advise a try and voila after a short time their pains where gone...
what is ur take on this ?
to further improve I am interested in keto but basically fish only and veg if possible...
It's a good plate, but it's just too much food for most people. I'm carnivore and I'm usually in ketosis by eating a high fat diet and I fast. I log everything I eat to track my macros and calories too.
Everyone on keto needs to watch this video. I see so many people who have been on keto for years and it is visually apparent they are still at an unhealthy body fat percentage. This is because most keto influencers do not teach that you need to be in a caloric deficit to reduce body fat. This video touches on that fact. Glad to see it.
Not a caloric deficit....
@@DebbieTDP how about "Fuel Deficit"?
Thank thank you! I have been struggling with getting “1 gm of protein per kg of my body weight” as I have heard on other channels. It stresses me out and then I doubt my path. I have been on a under 20 gm of carbs per day since April and it was stressing me out that it was difficult to reach that goal when my eating window is max 8 hrs and I am just not hungry very often. My ketones are always above 1 every morning and on fast days my highest was 2.5 I think.
I had been trying to up protein every day so that I could build muscle.
Others would say that I am not eating enough.
How do I decide whether I should continue to increase proteins (and calories).
I don’t want my metabolism to slow down. I am down 75 pounds since April 7
Hey! First, best wishes on your journey.
Please know that ANYONE’S recommendation for protein g per kg OR lb of body weight should be calculated on IDEAL body weight, not current body weight for people who are overweight (like me lol). I weigh 230 right now and, as a lifter, I calculate protein (.8-1.0g/lb body weight) based on 158 lbs, not my current weight.
@@jamesearl389 that is a relief. In my own weight training days when I had a trainer and went to the gym 5 days a week I think I maxed out at 1.2 per lb of ideal weight on occasion depending on where I was with lean muscle mass. I am still dropping weight at a consistent rate so I am not going to worry about it anymore 🙂
@@jamesearl389 This. I hear so many people saying they eat protein to match their goal and not their current weight. To me, it makes a ton of sense not to care about feeding protein to additional weight you want to lose.
Yes it's 1 g per lb of ideal body weight, not current bodyweight. And even that might be high if a person isn't weightlifting HARD.
I just like to eat the proper food, not everything I see! I want to get to an amount I can be healthy at, and then eat low carb, with fat, and protein. I’m not going to stuff myself, even with ribeyes, every meal! I’ve always said that no matter what you eat, if you eat the same thing every time, you’ll get sick of it, including sweets! I’m pretty cautious, after getting all of that junk directions, from the government, cigarettes are safe, Agent Orange, is safe, milk is safe! Nothing is safe, that’s why we have steering wheels in our vehicles, and brakes! The roads are safe, if you drive with sense, and don’t encounter impaired drivers on the road. I get full, easier and easier, as I go, every day! That’s my plan! ???
I lost 45 pounds on a low carb diet but had a difficult time trying to achieve my ideal weight according to the BMI chart so switched to a mostly carnivore diet. Last week on my quarterly doctor visit, I discovered I now have proteinuria.
Proteins are not for energy? Proteins can be broken down into amino acids and converted into glucose through a process called gluconeogenesis.
Dr. Boz forgot about the leptin, ghrelin, insulin and glucagon tandem. You can all balance their functions on keto/ carnivore. You can never overeat protein and fats.
One can certainly overeat protein, depending on what your goals are, and how your metabolism is currently operating. I could not get keto to work until I reduced my protein intake to about 100g per day.
When I switched to carnivore, I was amazed at the amount of protein I could consume! I do not limit myself at all. But I have to make sure I get enough fat.
Can i bulk on keto while strength training? Im currently eating high protein and high fat and almost 0 carb. Heres some background information about me:
Ive lost 50kgs on keto at maintenance calories. However, I want to bulk and gain muscle.
Now, im bulking on keto and eating about 350g+ of protein and 150-200g fat per day everyday. Ive gained 2kg in the past month and my belly size is the same. Is this dangerous? Will I actually gain muslce without the carbs?
I wonder what she thinks about the all meat diet. Not necessarily for diabetes, but just for the average person without significant health issues that might complicate the question
This morning I had the rest of my t-bone steak and for lunch I had 3 eggs. I'm not hungry. :)
tbh i expected the glass of milk being an issue. Milk and most of other diary products have deceptively high amount of carbs.
Personally after monitoring my calories/macro for over 5 months on another diet i rather use my gut-feeling whether i need more food or not. Noting down and calculating stuff starts feeling like prison after a while.
me too! Milk contains lactose, and lactOSE is a sugar, just as glucOSE, fructOSE, and sucrOSE are. And dextrOSE.
Stay away from the -OSE !!!
gut-feeling works great for me on the carnivore diet. I eat once a day. I eat until I'm starting to feel full. Sometimes I'll eat a second meal 3 hours later. Sometimes I will not eat at all on a particular day.
What do i do. I was origionally losing weight in carnivore.
I am not losing anymore. Im cutting out excess fat now , and im STARVING. I AM SO SO HUNGRY.
i am eating 3 small meat or egg meals a day .
And im just absolutely ravenous . But not losing. Help!
See the keto diet I just water fast for 14 days and get on a scheduled healthy organic meal diet and that helps me enough. Plus I dry fast as well.
Tell me about monkfruit sweetener
Re your thumbnail photo: Don't wag your finger at me!!!
There is a grammatical howler in your intro sentence above, too.
Common sense from an expert. Thank you...
How do I get the protein needs for older women? I have heard that I should eat more protein over 2 meals to get 100 grams of protein per day. I don't need to lose weight currently.
1 gram of protein for each kilo of lean body weight. You might be a little off, but you're in the right ballpark.
Stop trashing other diets within the same family. What you showed was Carnivore. Got watch ken berry.
Dr Boz, why am I not in Ketosis when I wake up during a fast? 18 hour fast
Yup, that's me, that's my problem. I am not exercising enough. I need to hit the gym and walk a bit more. Damn, I really got used to eating a bunch of eggs, red meat and butter.
Looked like a perfect meal to me, albeit too much for one setting. It wasn’t then clear WHAT to eat! Confused 😮
She just meant not to over eat and not to eat too much protein unless you're really exercising. Fat needs to be a big part of what you eat.
Yes, that plate looked great, just too much on it, and it didn't have enough butter.
Yeah, but fat has more calories gram per gram, so i think best diet to manage weight is lean meat (grass fed beef is the best in terms of quality and nutrition), low calorie fruit(blueberries, strawberries, cantaloupe, raspberries, blackberries, watermelon, papaya), with this diet is very easy to manage weight, and you can eat very high volume of food, plus also tasty and nutritious.
So really it's about how much of the food shown you eat not what you eat? It would help to show the plate size with the lower amount of protein. I guess it would just be 1/4 the size to get he protein down from 180mg to about 60mg for a person who is not building muscle?
I've dropped 130 on keto and have stalled need to lose just 5-10 more have been cutting back and started jogging But adding protein cause I'm lifting also.maybe cut the protein a bit. I'm 64 male
IMO, cut the fat not the protein. I think you should want 35% or so of your calories to be protein and have the fat be 55-60%. That should lean you out. As you get older your protein needs actually increase. I’m a 6’ guy and shoot for about 170 grams of protein a day. Add or subtract 5 grams for every inch you are taller or shorter than me to get a good target. Just keep the combined fat and carbs at or below that amount as well. This has fixed my stall.
I switched from keto to carnivore about 4 months ago. It worked great, but I stalled a couple of months in. Added a half a stick of additional butter... Boom, back on track.
When I first started keto a decade ago, I couldn't get into ketosis consistently for the first six months... until I restricted protein to about 100g a day.
protein stimulste mtor
also high calorie diet
I switched over to a carnivore diet and I lost 20 pounds in six months. My blood pressure is now normal and I don't have to take blood pressure pills. Sugar and processed foods are not healthy at all.
I started keto 3 weeks ago. My Garmin watch shows extremely high levels of stress, meaning my HRV is going crazy, even when I sleep. My body battery is not recharging. I feel exhausted. And I get moments of a plus rate over 100 when I’m not doing anything. I’m worried. Is this normal? What should I do?
are you still feeling poorly?
it is common to feel "off" when people first start keto. But a pulse rate of 100 sounds concerning.
Have you tried measuring your pulse rate using your finger and a watch? Maybe the Garmin is being a goof, and causing you unnecessary stress.
Trying to change my diet but I am already thin. I do not want to lose weight. Cannot afford to do intermittent fasting. I'm eating more than I want, adding butter to everything and so on. Still dropping weight. Anyone else have this problem? It's frustrating.
Maybe you have other problem, cancer etc.. Weight loss for no reason is a bad bad sign. Be careful
@@TraderX888 Many people eat carnivore for weight loss. So it's not losing weight for no reason. I've been thin my whole life and haven't died of cancer yet. :)
What? You are saying not to eat eggs or meat? I'm confused. I thought that's exactly what we are supposed to eat.
It's the amount. She's saying that that is too much food unless you're lifting weights and working out hard.
@@deniseparker3937 Gotcha...thx
I appreciate the content, however, it's hard to enjoy because the volume seems to be so low. If I turn it up, the next thing that plays blasts my ears. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but this isn't a normal issue for me.
metabloism isnt just induced by carbs, protein or food. without exercise, less will burn off regardless
“The most common misconception about people who go keto or carnivore, is that they can eat all the meat and protein they can possibly eat…” that is not a misconception that is poor English, tautology to be specific 😅
good
Is it because carnivore equals no supplement sales ?
I am on a healthy Keto for 1,5 month and i feel just great. Just got by bloodwork and something strange happend. My LDL is high (expected), but my triglycerides rose 185 to 256, which is as I understand bad. Can't find an answer anywhere and my doctor says I shall be better off keto. Could you please comment on that?
She has a whole chapter in her book KetoContinuum on it abt assessing cardiac risk. Also Dr Cwyes has excellent videos on cholesterol.
Best to ask for a CAC test to check arteries. They only get damaged w by sugar so if ur not damaging ur arteries w sugar they won't get clogged. There also a blood test to check the size & shape of the cholesterol particles. These are better indicators of risk than just cholesterol #'s
Triglycerides are high because they're not metabolizing fast enough with the influx of food coming in buffering and loading up the system, even though you're metabolically in starvation mode which automatically jacks everything up to be able to process fats and proteins which are larger compounds for the same rate and energy needs carbs do easier because they're smaller.
does that mean i shall eat less? i lost 6 kilo already during that time, which is a good result i reckon... High Triglycerides is a bad thing to have as i understand. So what do i do. Is Keto not for me or shall i give my body more time to adapt? Thank you@@asherasator
@@azweinger I can't tell you what to do because I don't now anything about you, but I recommend you speak with an MD or NP and have a professional guide you through it regardless if they're for keto/carnivore diets or not, because they can look at many other factors in your lab tests. What I do know is that high numbers in lab work with keto/carnivore diets seems to be common. It also depends on the diet too some are more fat based others are more meat based so there's slight differences and factors to consider metabolically. Just understand that these type of diets are starvation mode processes and require higher amounts of proteins and fats doing double duty because they're used as fuel/ATP and still have to be used for structural, biological and hormonal integrity.
Fasting alone automatically raises LDL.
The weight loss is the body eating itself to try and maintain, and then finds an equilibrium with the food coming in, so you should be in adaptation mode already if you're doing a keto diet. If you're doing a carnivore diet you're never really in true adaptation mode which focuses on fats because proteins are similar to carbs and in the next order of oxidation for ATP.
@@azweinger I would urge you to find a doctor who has a deep understanding of keto and/or carnivore. A doctor with no experience with this subject will just turn tail and run when faced with numbers that are higher than what it says "in the book".
I am 69, 2months ago due to retiring I found that I had lost a lot of my strength. I started exercising like it was my new job 3 times a week. So far I feel stronger and I lost 10kg (22lbs) and I am going to become stronger than before, bought some weights and a month later some more and it looks like I might buy even more, yes, I am banned out of gyms due to hitting a huge guy that said "f*** you" 3 times in a row. Do not think that thin guys can't hit hard, 1 shot and he was sleeping, then he reported me and lied about what happened, I told the truth and then told him that I am a 3rd Dan Karate and I would see him outside. The fear in his eyes were enough for me so I just left.
not the milk but meat and eggs yeah until you are full... you stop eating for 24 to 36 hours depends on you
1:38 Boost in which hormones?
I need help, please. What exactly is 182 grams of meat? It's no food. If I use Google to convert 182 gr. into ounces, it's only 6 ounces which is less than 1lb. So what's the big deal? I am so confused when physicians keep talking in grams and yet, the store sells the meat per lb.
No... 4oz is around 23 grams protein so 1lb is around 90 grams protein, so 2lbs would be around 180 grams..
I just figured she was gonna throw shade on the glass of milk and the carbs in those eggs, but yeah.....
The beauty of Keto in those first few months is how you can indulge in fats without guilt, but then the reality kicks in ... you need to start paying attention to just how much food you're consuming. Too much of a good thing is still too much, that's the mistake I made. I lost 36 pounds in a few months on keto, I'm 65 and I weighed the same as when I was an athlete in college, but slowly and surely over the course of the next couple of years I gained 10 pounds back and didn't feel the same energy and euphoria of that first year of keto. Adjusted the amount I was eating, lowering my fat consumption some, and voila', lost those 10 pounds in a matter of months.
Omad for two years dropped 20 kg mostly protein with the occasional deviation I’m at my ideal weight.
I once heard it put best:
Keto is a high FAT diet, not a high PROTEIN diet.
It's a low carb, high fat, moderate protein diet.
0:12 I do look like that so I guess I’ll eat steak, eggs and sardines. Also, I practice 18/6 intermittent fasting so I’ll have some carbs too. I’m good.
I've been wondering about this. If you eat 300 g of protein every day, but only need 120 g, what does your body do with the excess?
It becomes fat. The only difference between a carb and a protein is nitrogen for the body to make animo acids with it then metabolizing those there are uric acid byproducts. Once nitrogen is stripped during oxidation it's a carb. Saturated carbs If not oxidised for energy/ATP group together in various ways creating long chain fats and cholesterol and put to use or get stored.
Carbs are the smallest, easiest and cleanest to oxidize into ATP. Next is proteins, then fats. They're all oxidizing at the same time when coming from the diet, the size of them dictates the burning order so they're like buffering energy and compounds in the system. When carbs are missing as an energy source the whole system revs up to oxidize fats or proteins and many things have double duty to perform to sustain structural, biological and hormonal integrity.
Gluconeogenesis. Protein in excess of what the body needs to either repair or build protein tissue, isn't wasted. It is converted into glucose, and then the excess of that glucose which doesn't get burned gets stored as fat.
Thanks @asherasator and @y00t00b3r. I'd been operating under the belief that your body wouldn't convert protein to carbs unless you had exhausted both your carb and fat supplies. Sounds like that's simply what happens when you eat excess protein, regardless of other conditions.
that plate has about 2000 calories, if you are doing omad then that would even be on the low side for someone on a carnivore diet, if you look like that you could eat that twice a day and be fine
I lost 20 lbs on Keto last August 2022 and I stopped it 3 months later. I was so upset that I gained all the weight back as soon as I introduced the carbs again or regular foods. Here I am again with the same weight. I hate it. August 2022 scaled at 234. August 2023 Scaled at 235. all for nothing.
If it worked, why did you quit? If it worked once, it'll work again. I've been keto for about a decade. Why would I ever stop?
Hoffman effect, check it out
Dr. Boz, the sound of your video is too low, please remaster this video.
Anyway, for the last 14 months I have been in a carnivore diet. Before the diet my weight was 205 lb, now it is 182. My A1c is now 5.6.
I sleep better, I don't have to go pee 3 times a night. I can sleep 6 hours as before I would only sleep 3 to 4 hours.
I can go up stairs without having to pull myself on the stair rail.
I was not a marathon runner, I did not have weight lifter's muscles but my diet was mostly potatoes, bread, pasta, etc.
I don't understand what is your message.
