I listen to many of the carnivore keto docs and Chaffee is hands down the smartest and most humble of them all. Doesn't constantly cut people off to get his words in. Love him.
Hey Doc! I chat with you couple of months ago about my health. In 2016 I was diagnosed with a small carcinoid tumor on my trachea and I got scared and I turned into a vegan diet thinking it's the most healthy diet. 5 years goes by nothing happened for the first 2 years was stable but the last 3 increased in size, my blood work was upside down , and one year ago I turned carnivor over night and you told me to continue and check my glucose to make sure to keep it down. One week ago I did a ct scan to see what happened and my results are positive the tumor shrink 3 mm. Is not much but I'm happy for the results I will continue.
Christian carnivore family of six. I prayed for wisdom in dealing with our health issues and I believe this is Gods plan for us in this time. We are all ridiculously healthy, now! Thank you for spreading this vital information.
At church they always pray for health and vitality of all His followers. I thank God for showing me lifestyle and true true healing. Creating the ideal environment inside my body with carnivore diet so that the Lord can do His healing His way. Trying to heal up a stress fracture so I can get back to carnivore marathon running! Which btw got this dang stress fracture during a 1.5 month stent with VEGANISM lol idk what I was thinking! Ready to be back and healed and spreading the good word!!!!🥩🏃🏼♀️
@@kinggrimm4338 God is the science. He's basically everything. No other explanation. Unless you're going with "nothing and BAM, bunch of stuff." That takes more faith than believing the God. For me, the BAM came with "Let there be light," ...and there was light. Boom. I prayed for wisdom...and boom, found carnivore. And He shows up in everything. Not invisible to me. Try reading the Bible straight through. It's life-changing. Until then, be thoughtful and careful in your attacks. God will not be mocked.
"You don't know how bad you feel until you feel better." I had no idea how much better I would feel moving from a 'healthy' low fat plant based diet to low carb omnivore. I had no idea how much better than that I would feel on ketovore. But I had absolutely no idea how amazing I would feel as a carnivore.
This interview reminds me of Prof Tim Noakes and how he’s changed his mind regarding carbs and running. Great interview! I hiked almost half the Appalachian trail in two months as a carnivore and everyone along the way kept telling me I couldn’t do it without carbs. My response was “but I am”. At first it made me mad because I didn’t care that they were eating junk food chasing their sugar high.
If you don't mind a question... I've done a fair amount of hiking before i went carnivor and i consumed massive amounts of calories while hiking. I can't afford to lose any more body fat. What did you pack for food? I was thinking maybe a pemmican type product?
@@jonahsmith3614 yes that and I took a whole very fatty roast sliced thicker slices and dehydrated it. I used a food saver to seal the jerky in manageable sizes to fit into my front pockets. I had to remind myself to snack along the way because I wasn’t always hungry but I too didn’t want to loose too much weight. When I got to town I would eat the fattiest burgers with extra bacon and cheese. I got the idea of the fattier jerky from a video Dr Chaffee did. I also dehydrated full pounds of the fattiest meat and dehydrated and sealed them too. So easy to eat every night when I got to camp. Nothing less than 80/20.
Lately you’ve been hosting some outstanding guests ! Killin it!! Love all doctors coming out of their “caves” in support of low carb meat base diets and speaking out and calling out the bs on medical establishment . Our Voice is our power 💕🙏
@anthonychaffeemd Thank You Anthony. I am so grateful you have done all these interviews. I'm hopeful that we are able to blast this out and it can be noticed #seektruth #meathealsus #resilientbiology
Love this! I Started learning about carnivore diet almost a year ago & slowly changing the diet & feeling great. December 2020, I had a 1cm. cancerous tumor removed from my breast. Right before the surgery, someone suggested I do a 10 day fast, eating only fresh fruits & veggies. For me, that was not a problem. (I’ve never been a vegan or vegetarian, nor will I ever be.) after about 3 days on the fast, I noticed my poop didn’t smell, there was actually no odor. The thing is, I was already healthy. One might ask, ‘we’ll how does a healthy person get cancer? Yeah, that’s one of my questions 🙄 So as soon as I was told about the cancer, I went & did my own research & stopped eating & using anything that causes cancer. Like they say, you have to listen & pay attention to your body. Only you know how you feel when you eat or use something on your body. Btw, I didn’t need chemo, but they wanted me to do radiation & this 5 year pill, which I refused & I’m still very healthy. (Not suggesting this to anyone) Sorry for it being so long. I tried to give the shortest version as possible. Be blessed 💕
It was such a knowledgeable conversation, even dr Chaffee's ears perked up more than once and I could see he was amused and sometimes suprised with the input Jake gave. One of the best interviews so far!
As a former Royal Marine I enjoyed this. 10 months ago a nutritionist friend looked in my fridge, (cooler) and laughed! What is all this low fat stuff? I was mortified, thinking how healthy I was. She said she had to lie during her exams to become MSc to comply with the low fat high carb curriculum. So with an open mind I agreed to trial high fat low carb for 90 days. Wow what a difference, been carnivore ever since and not going back.
Absolute top class interview, been on and off ketovore for 6 months, now honing it to pure carnivore with the majority of meals being beef of some sort, and I’m already feel tons better!! It’s amazing what it does to you, your awareness becomes finally tuned, you get deep sleep, you wake up refreshed and energised, you feel like superman! Thank you Dr Chaffee, for your awesome content, knowledge and honesty! Absolutely spot on!!!!
Trying to reverse kidney failure whilst on dialysis eating carnivore. It’s not easy but the more i watch and listen the more hope i have. Thank you Dr Chaffee for all you do, i used to be so strong being a builder all day and lifting weights most days, then after 25 years of pushing it on a carb rich diet my kidneys packed up and my bp went to 235/140. Started dialysis 2020 just after id gotten married and my life fell apart. Couldn’t get a hold on my bp for a long long time, not until i started carnivore much to the horror of my clinic nurses and nephrologists. A couple of months in my bp is down to 170/85 on average, still taking 4 different bp meds but suddenly they don’t seem to be doing much with no side affects like before. I am in complete control of my oedema now and my urine has started to darken as opposed to just passing clean water urine which tells me theres some proper function going on with my kidney beans. I’ve stopped having kidney pain that was noticeable with certain meals including carbohydrates. I think I’ve always been carb sensitive and when i think of all the sugar and anabolic post window carbs i stuffed into me 🤮 and yet the nurses and doctors are still pushing carbs even to the diabetics at my clinic and I’d say 80% of the patients there have become diabetics whilst on dialysis. I’ve started exercising again, don’t seem to need much sleep, my skin tone is better, my stomach has abs, i look more muscular and ripped yet i have gained 5 kg in a couple of months and am having to lie about my dry weight to the nurses or they will just try to take more fluid off me even though i look like an anatomy chart under my clothes. Theres just not much fluid to come off anymore, i feel almost bad when i look at the other patients scoffing toast and biscuits and i just wait til i get home for some beef mince. I dare not say anything because these diabetics are told carbs are important and I’ve upset 2 people already saying that sugar carb’s aren’t helping them and they get very defensive 🙄 i hope i won’t need dialysis one day and can live a normal life again, it’s a massive burden and although it’s saved my life so far I can’t help feeling I wouldn’t have needed it at all had i known about eating this way years ago. My advice to anyone would be don’t avoid going to the doctors for check ups and blood tests, had i not avoided the dr’s for 20 years i could have been diagnosed at an earlier stage and saved some damage on my kidneys from the diet and the high blood pressure. Due to the dietary advice from the docs i tried vegetarianism, veganism, juicing, fruitarian and all that happened was a decline from 10% function down to 3% function in 3 months and hospitalisation with severe oedema and potassium overload. The vegan diet is dangerous so why are they pushing it to the masses? To get us all on meds? Crazy times
Hi friend. I got shot in the kidney (Wagner group Syrian oil field) and I was on dialysis. They told me I'd have to stay on it because of the scar tissue in my kidney. I am no longer on dialysis friend this diet seems to have even taken care of the scar tissue on the interior of the kidney (something by the way that the doctors said was "impossible"). I just thought I'd take the time out of my day to let you know that in my humble opinion there are "doctors" that pumped me full of medication and told me there was nothing I could do and to just adjust and live with it and my new sick reality and DOCTORS like Dr Chaffee and there is a HUGE chasm of a difference. In my opinion the difference your mind and mental framework makes to your recovery and health is also HUGE and you seem to be in the right place friend. I recovered from dialysis with my kidney apparently looking like "Someone got a cigarette lighter and burnt a section of it meaning it simply will not be able to filter or function properly ever, think of a bathroom sponge that's been burnt with a lighter and it's ability to filter the water through" etc etc blah blah. They ALL turned out to be wrong friend. This diet truly redefines what "health" actually is and sets a new bar on what a human being can actually recover from as each individual mitochondria has greater ATP than what's considered "normal" (it's just a biological acronym for energy really friend) so there is DEFINITELY light at the end of the tunnel for you as I am literally living proof that dialysis isn't permenant in some instances and if you are properly nourished it's mind blowing what your body is capable of recovering from we are literally like wolverine when properly nourished. Chin up our bodies WANT to be functioning optimally and now that you are dealing with the nutritional side friend ANYTHING is possible. Sending you positive healing vibes you got this x
@@Fuckgoogle-tg5kz Thanks so much for your story, it gives me more hope cos i too was told the scarring of my kidneys is unfixable and my only option is dialysis and then a transplant. I really don’t want to go the transplant route and am praying now that i DONT get the call as I’m actually doing ok. Great to hear you got through it and even better to know scar tissue is actually repairable. Thanks again
Great conversation! Jake, your mother sounds like someone that many of us seniors would love to hear from! “She looks like a bionic human” and amazes her doctors! I’m 68 and just started Carnivore Diet 33 days ago. I’ve only lost 2 lbs so far, but I’m feeling really good and I feel stronger, even though I haven’t started exercising, yet. I really love how you are so in tune with your body and talk about your personal experiences and observations. Loved the comparison of 100 percent breast milk or all beef diet, vs a plant based, multi-ingredient diet. You two have been most inspiring! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Anthony~ I agree with the others.. the level of intelligent conversation just keeps getting better & better. And that's what first attracted me to your channel/podcasts-- intelligent information and discussion. I dont know how anyone could not be intrigued and persuaded to try this way of life after listening to this or any of your interviews. This one moved me again to whole-heartedly appreciate and thank you for all you do to share the truth about health. ❤
To Anthony, this guy is without a doubt the most influencing guests you have had,so much more than the contextual benefits of carnivore. Some will lose by being put off by his confidence and mode he is operating on , but like most things that are truly valuable are scarce or hard to find or even hidden because most of the masses that are Sick and confused have lost their way he Is a model that can be adhered to. Good job
Finally someone that has tested a strict carnivore diet on running marathons! Even taken it a step further with no water! Amazing! I was breaking my diet during long runs and races thinking it was necessary to have some carbs or caffeine. So unnecessary and harmful! Now I've been training while strict carnivore, just meat/eggs/salt/water and my performance and body composition are the best ever! Amazing stuff! ❤ Thank you both! Loved the interview!
Hi Jake! I’ve trained and ran two marathons while on carnivore diet! My first two! 4:10 then 4:07. Got plans to break that 4 hour barrier! I’m 32 yo female! But would you believe, I got brainwashed a few months ago and was vegan for an about 1.5 months and ended up getting a stress fracture to my 4th metatarsal!😩idk what I was thinking! What another CLEAR SIGN that plants are trying to kill me🤣train and completed TWO marathons! Then I do vegan for 6 weeks and boom, my bones start breaking 😂Lordy I’m back on track now, it’s been 5 weeks since the injury and I’m so so close to being back full running! Walking and stairmaster are no issue! But running-almost there! Plant based Never again! Houston marathon this coming January! Plans to break 4 hours!! Eat meat, run, repeat!🥩🏃🏼♀️
I'm listening to this at work, been carnivore for a little over a month, feel great and will keep going, experiencing and experimenting for myself. Wonderful conversation highly informative and motivational. Thank you both.
AweSum interview. It is so fun to see how each person's passion for helping people projects forth in such unique ways. It is clear that Jake has a wealth of personal experience and experimentation, along with a depth of research in the nutrition space for all that he shares. I feel enriched from this time with you two. Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this interview, dr. Chaffee. I did carnivore recently for three weeks and felt great. Then I got a craving for “something else” and regrettably caved in. Back on the carnivore wagon again now. Greetings from Oslo, Norway.
So glad to have seen this episode. I have a 41 mile Ultramarathon in November. My first ever Ultra as a carnivore....I have been a little nervous of the unknown 😅.
Gotta say #2 in my most favorite vids I’ve watched so far in the carnivurse. Not because of the information but the PASSION Jake has when he speaks. #1 to me is with Richard Smith. He also speaks with absolute devotion. I can feel his words as they resonate with me. Richard also has a kick ass accent! Like grounds keeper willie! Keep ‘em comin doc!
Ran a 50k trail run on just water and base salt. Was a hot day, 2nd half of the run, many had stomach cramps. My stomach felt great the whole race. That was just 60 days or so of carnivore, after a few years of mostly low carb.
Great video Dr. Chaffee! I have never listened to Jake Thomas before and he has great analogies! I loved the one that our body does best when given one item that is packed full of nutrition( which I am adding is packed with all the nutrients we need in a day- beef and other remanent meats! Example- beef-it is a food pyramid all by itself! In fact- someone should design a food pyramid on just the cow and show it’s breakdown in a food pyramid fashion-it alone is a healthy balanced diet!) But Jake’s analogy on how like a human baby with breastmilk and getting all it needs, anyone weaned from that and moving to remanent meat- the human body says- “oh, ok, it’s just beef- we are good, can work and build while beef alone is here.” But when we add a bunch of other mess- including plant based foods- processed or whole (raw or cooked) the body can’t relax and has to be constantly focused on figuring out where all that mess goes and if plant based it’s working hard to flush it out and any other toxins (like sugar and fiber- both plant based) that enter your mouth! Ok, speaking from my heart and venting a bit, I recently found out that the 7th Day Adventists Christians are the ones that designed our current food pyramid, RDA, they own companies like Kellogg’s and Coca Cola, are running our “health” organizations and wrote curriculum for doctors on health and nutrition for medical school. Also found out that they are the ones making the “fake meats” and lab grown ones. That they created the vegan and vegetarian diets, first called the “Garden of Eden Vegan Diet” and how their agenda was to harm hormones, prevent fertility, but main was they knew plants harm the body and said they would rather be sick for a lifetime and rise at the end of their time than eat meat that makes us healthy. And the more people they have on their Eden Vegan Diet, or just heavy plant based with little to no meat- then they have succeeded. I understand currently that not all 7th Day Adventists Christians are doing this- that even many are going carnivore- and that’s awesome! They are feeling so healthy. But the 7th Day Adventists Christians that are still pushing the plant heavy diets for their agenda onto the whole human race as they think that will help them rise at the end- I don’t agree with that religious agenda being secretly forced on the human race. That’s why I hope the food pyramid is redone and based on science- not their religious ideology like the current one made by them. The RDA needs to be redone and based on true science! That the Big plant food industry’s power to make decision on human kinds nutrition be made illegal and not allowed. They can’t be allowed to buy into organizations like the AHA. Also, unless a school is a “7th Day Adventists Christian Schoon that clearly states their food rules of “no meat” days and “vegan” days- bought or brought from home- regular public schools should NOT be allowed to force “no meat” or “vegan” days on students due to that also being a 7th Day Adventist Christian Religious Ideology that you can’t force on regular public school kids in any country! And them taking children’s home packed lunches from a child that contain animal meat because they brought it on a “vegan” or “no meat day” is a lawsuit waiting to happen if in a regular public school! But I hope the world understands that our current food pyramid and RDA, and all the nutrition and health bologna from the past 150+ years was purely run off a religion based 7th Day Adventists Christian ideology- not science based at all! I just want to keep repeating this here- but our food pyramid is not science based! That’s why everyone is sick with illnesses, diseases, and cancers! Humans are not meant to consume a heavy plant based diet- and plants today are not the same as they were long ago when humans barely ate them to get by- and were only seasonal! But humans ate mainly meat! It just upsets me that everyone is so brainwashed off a religion based ideology and they have no clue on that! If the world had stayed more human ancestral with a primarily meat heavy and animal saturated fat based diet- the world would be a very different place! Peace would be more wide spread! All the wars we have seen probably wouldn’t have been or not as bad, science and technology would be way further along! Who knows- we could have been traveling to other planets easily by now! Humans would know their true born identify- hormones not screwed up! The human race would be living closer to 120 like our telomeres show! People would have been so much happier! No illnesses, diseases, and cancers! I want to see this carnivore diet continue to spread- and letting people know that the current food pyramid was a religious 7th Day Adventists Christian religious ideology, human kind would snap out of this plant based brainwashed matrix faster and go carnivore. Hope more realize the truth. Big Pharma and Big plant food industry took a greedy profit margin take from the 7th Day Adventists Christians agenda when they got involved and the two corrupt masses went full swing to make human kind sick! Time to end the plant based matrix and unplug everyone so they can see the truth! (I love saying analogies too! Haha ☺️). The carnivore diet is the human ancestral way of eating, not a fad! And science includes observable data collecting! Well, we can clearly see the thousands healing on a carnivore diet! From people just beginning carnivore to people like Maggie White, age 82 but looks like she is 60 or less-she on carnivore for 65+ years and still working on her ranch daily for 14+ hours! She’s super healthy! Have a great day Dr. Chaffee! I appreciate you and all that you do!
@@cornstar1253 not picking, just informing on facts and the base that their religious ideology was forced on to human kind and no science based backing up the food pyramid, RDA, and many other things. The world is in a crisis of illnesses, diseases, and cancers due to the 7th day Adventists Christians religious ideology. Not good.
@@lifelikejake I have been lately. Not quite the lion diet but carnivorous with some cheese. It’s been tough because it’s really hot here and I’ve been craving some fruit but I’m hanging in there. Thanks buddy!
Wow he is so real on the metaphors. Your content always inspires me to keep going. Ex elite cyclist with a former carb and alcohol addiction..now carnivore with an occasional beet or grilled no carb veggies..feeling amazing!
Thank you so much Dr Chaffe and Jake for the excellent conversation. Carnivore for 44 days and great results! Always healthy and athletic but need to add a few pounds. Thank you Dr Chaffe also for the X3 Bar discount! Im going to be an animal like you. At 5'8" and 112 lbs I have a way to go 😂 but I will do it!!
That part around 51:00 about feeling it was a particularly standout part of an awesome conversation. I am really enjoying this and I'm still only halfway through. Don't want it to end! Thanks! :D
People can do what they can do for themselves or not. Their choice. Personally at 68, I learned to filter out all the noise. Cant worry about what is going to happen. My advice is keep your life simple.
I'm happy I learned about carnivore, but I'm pissed to have lived 70 years before I saw "Plants Are Trying To Kill You" and Dr. Chaffee introduced me to carnivore! I started "full on" the very next day on July 8, 2023! Bless everyone willing to learn and take action!
Dr. Chaffee - would you agree at all with this -- our bodies are not machines but intelligent intricate complex systems that have a drive or agenda to thrive and survive - and what we eat is not just fuel and building material but also information and messaging and instructions that can either work in sync with the body's goals and agenda or against them. The body will always attempt to thrive and sustain optimal life but an onslaught of destructive messaging, supply chain obstruction and confusion, and toxins and repeated insults will eventually wreck it and kill it.
I have moved from keto to carnivore. I am calm, sleeping well, cravings are not bad, I'm not hungry, no brain fog. I'm using tallow on my skin and it glows! And I'm walking 2 miles every day and lifting weights. I mean I am 77 years old and I could go on and on!
Thank you for this motivational discussion! I still struggle eating & drinking crap and keep reminding my self it’s literally scat! Minute 57 living to eat. Need to lose nearly half of my self in weight, but more importantly I want to live a productive life, one I haven’t lived in the last 7 years. Thank you! 🥰
Great podcast. I’m from New Orleans so def piqued my interest! Jake’s message resonates. Food/alcohol is HUGE in New Orleans. Fighting hard--friends are seeing my success but they roll their eyes when I tell them. My family tolerates me-it’s so hard to stay quiet when feeling and seeing such benefits. Y’all keep up the good fight! It’s coming around!!
I can totally relate to Jake Thomas on my experience as an 8 month carnivore and the VA health system. I came from a place of high cholesterol (280), super high triglycerides (600-700), low HDL (28). normal LDL and somewhat high fasting glucose (110). I've always ate a supposedly 'balanced' and low fat diet and was not obese at all at 56yo, 6ft 189lbs and yet, after 8 months on carnivore, and without much exercise due to back fusion surgery, my cholesterol went up to 619, triglycerides down below 100, HDL up in the 70s, high LDL at 538 and fasting glucose down in the 70s. I also Lost 30 lbs (of mostly inflammation I gather). My also BP went from 120/80 down to 109/70. I haven't felt this good since my 30s and in military service. But you guessed it, the VA wanted me on statins instead of noticing that I lowered my triglycerides and bettered every single metric (except total cholesterol and LDL IAW their metrics) after a decade trying to lower them with medications. Those numbers will only get better as they still need to settle after a lifetime of bad habits and nutrition and just now started excercising again. I obviously kindly declined the myriad of medicatons they offered. I can't help it to think, how many veterans would benefit from promoting a low-carb diet at least. Sad thing is that when I was hospitalized at the VA, all they fed me was pure carbs and some meat, almost no salt. I had plenty of bread and margarine spread. Go figure.
Into my 3rd week as beef only (finished off what bacon I had) and I don't feel weak ... cut out sugar 5 months ago. 240 lbs down to 208 now. As a truck driver I'm struggling to eat 1 pound of meat at 1 setting. Am I starving myself without noticing?
I was vegan for 5 months and I developed ulcerative colitis. That was 2019. I stopped went back to a normal diet protein and carbs and never got over UC until I started mushroom powders and after 3 months I went into remission late 2022. I'm now on the carnivore diet day 11 and I feel amazing now down 6kg and energy is awesome. Can I ditch the mushrooms now? I'm still taking it because it healed me and I know taking mushroom powders is not a true carnivore.
Dr Chaffee, I'm so sorry to bother you in the comments about this. And if you've already made a video (not just a short) about this then my bad. But could you make a video about your method of dehydration of steaks, including temps and times? Again, so very sorry for bothering you. Thank you so much for the videos and info that you put out!
Thanks switching from Keto to carnivore to clean up my diet. Interesting and informative. Inflammation that I never knew I had, went in about 2 days. Impressed. Look younger too so that's a bonus (might only be in my head😂😅).
My 2 Italian sisters are 80 and 82 and they are so set in their ways they just won’t hear me out. They shut me down, every time. I worry about them but it’s their choice . So maybe when I’m 125 on Jan 3rd according to my “Lose it” app …maybe they’ll be open to hearing me out. For now I’m just praying 🙏
@@anthonychaffeemd 🙋Would you ever consider a short video on Autism? My son is 11and on the Spectrum. We do as much protein for him as he will tolerate. No veggies only a little bit of unsweetened applesauce to give the meat a texture he will actually eat. We also make our own ghee and he eats lots of that. I was wondering your thoughts on children's vitamins? I feel that you have an incredible knowledge of the brain as well as nutrition (which is not easy to find.) I desperately want to do my part as a mom to help my son eat and live with autism the best way that he can and I feel you can shed very useful info on that. God bless you for sharing your info with us. I have learned a lot. I am also basically Carnivore. That darn coffee keeps gettin me.😌 Each day I am overcoming a terrible relationship with food and getting comfortable with the just meat lifestyle. I share your content often. It helps others understand why I live this way.😊👍
In the 90s through 2010 I ran/walked about 12 marathons and I was vegetarian…I never ate the high carbs like most of the other runners I was working out with.. they would eat pasta the night before… I ran LA marathons, New York Marathon, palos verdes marathon… I finished every marathon I attempted…I think I would have done much better as a carnivore
When I was on my walk with my dog, we have a police officer that lives on my block and he was coming home from work last night and I said “ hey how are you doing” He said you look good what’s going on? I said I’m doing the carnivore diet I lost 17 pounds in 6 & 1/2 weeks. And he said “you know, I just heard about the carnivore diet,” so the word is getting out . 🎉🥳🥳
Amazing talk. Could listen to both of you for days. What's your take on eating meat raw? I get the same kind of skepticism from other carnivores like I would with people on a SAD diet when I mention I eat most of my meat raw. I've probably eaten 500kg of raw ground lamb and have never had any issues whatsoever.
I love what Jake says ,but we do know our foods are not made healthy and our animals are feed bad stuff .but as everyday people we are helplessly unable to fight the big food management. So we have to eat just meat exercise hope to be our best spread the information as best we can
@@lifelikejake if you would like to help humanity that idea of yours is great. Carnivore baby food would fill an opportunity to help mothers out that are pressed for time. Should be a good market, canned everything from salmon wild caught to canned elk or moose meat. And I think father's would get behind it also. Plus good for the environment. Get a tribe of Inuits to help out. Wild meat along with domesticated.
Great exchange but what about the argument from Dr Pradip Jamnadis, a big critic of the SAD diet, that you should eat fiber everyday, not for us but for our gut bacteria? They outnumber our cells 10 to 1.
Great question. In short, the human body does not “need” fiber. Additionally, as your fiber consumption goes up, so does your risk of developing diverticular diseases. One study found that people who ate more fiber and had more bowel movements also had a higher likelihood of colon disease. As far as gut bacteria, carnivore dieters’ gut bacteria are so clean and healthy and they likely outnumber cells 100 to 1.
Q. What’s your weight Devil? And how do you maintain it with your weight training on carnivore? I lost weight during the start of mine. Figuring that part out the most. Dr. Chaffee never answers me in other Q&A’s. 🤣
the trick to get Dr Chaffee to answer you is either go into his Q&A stream VERY early and ask instantly before he gets swamped with superchats or give him a few bucks yourself with a superchat
I weight about 235lbs at the moment. Maintaining it is easier on carnivore than anything else, as even when I don't workout I never lose much muscle, or gain fat. I stay very constant as long as I eat enough. You need to eat as much meat as tastes good, try at least twice a day to make sure you're getting enough. I like to lift weights 4 days a week at least, but rarely have the time to. When I do, my appetite will literally double. When I eat my fill when working out, I stack on muscle more quickly than I ever have in the past
165lbs during the interview. Consistency with eating and training is the key. Calorie surplus to gain and calorie deficit to lose. But without consistency it’s moot. 💪

Hey Doc! I chat with you couple of months ago about my health.
In 2016 I was diagnosed with a small carcinoid tumor on my trachea and I got scared and I turned into a vegan diet thinking it's the most healthy diet. 5 years goes by nothing happened for the first 2 years was stable but the last 3 increased in size, my blood work was upside down , and one year ago I turned carnivor over night and you told me to continue and check my glucose to make sure to keep it down.
One week ago I did a ct scan to see what happened and my results are positive the tumor shrink 3 mm. Is not much but I'm happy for the results I will continue.
Christian carnivore family of six. I prayed for wisdom in dealing with our health issues and I believe this is Gods plan for us in this time. We are all ridiculously healthy, now! Thank you for spreading this vital information.
At church they always pray for health and vitality of all His followers. I thank God for showing me lifestyle and true true healing. Creating the ideal environment inside my body with carnivore diet so that the Lord can do His healing His way. Trying to heal up a stress fracture so I can get back to carnivore marathon running! Which btw got this dang stress fracture during a 1.5 month stent with VEGANISM lol idk what I was thinking! Ready to be back and healed and spreading the good word!!!!🥩🏃🏼♀️
Praise God!!!
You should be praising science, your invisible sky wizard had nothing to do with it, all churches preach different nutrient advice.
@@kinggrimm4338 The God of the Bible gets all the glory, honor and praise now and forever!
@@kinggrimm4338 God is the science. He's basically everything. No other explanation. Unless you're going with "nothing and BAM, bunch of stuff." That takes more faith than believing the God. For me, the BAM came with "Let there be light," ...and there was light. Boom. I prayed for wisdom...and boom, found carnivore. And He shows up in everything. Not invisible to me. Try reading the Bible straight through. It's life-changing. Until then, be thoughtful and careful in your attacks. God will not be mocked.
"You don't know how bad you feel until you feel better."
I had no idea how much better I would feel moving from a 'healthy' low fat plant based diet to low carb omnivore. I had no idea how much better than that I would feel on ketovore. But I had absolutely no idea how amazing I would feel as a carnivore.
Great interview! 7 months carnivore…down 66 lbs…all body aches and pains gone. Feel amazing! Thanks guys!
Nice!!
huzzah!
Awesome! May I ask you what foods do you eat in a day?
@@The_Chosen_One_85 red meat, eggs, grass feed butter, bacon, and occasionally salmon.
This interview reminds me of Prof Tim Noakes and how he’s changed his mind regarding carbs and running. Great interview! I hiked almost half the Appalachian trail in two months as a carnivore and everyone along the way kept telling me I couldn’t do it without carbs. My response was “but I am”. At first it made me mad because I didn’t care that they were eating junk food chasing their sugar high.
But I am. Love it!
If you don't mind a question...
I've done a fair amount of hiking before i went carnivor and i consumed massive amounts of calories while hiking. I can't afford to lose any more body fat. What did you pack for food? I was thinking maybe a pemmican type product?
@@jonahsmith3614 yes that and I took a whole very fatty roast sliced thicker slices and dehydrated it. I used a food saver to seal the jerky in manageable sizes to fit into my front pockets. I had to remind myself to snack along the way because I wasn’t always hungry but I too didn’t want to loose too much weight. When I got to town I would eat the fattiest burgers with extra bacon and cheese. I got the idea of the fattier jerky from a video Dr Chaffee did. I also dehydrated full pounds of the fattiest meat and dehydrated and sealed them too. So easy to eat every night when I got to camp. Nothing less than 80/20.
Thank you for the response!
Lately you’ve been hosting some outstanding guests ! Killin it!! Love all doctors coming out of their “caves” in support of low carb meat base diets and speaking out and calling out the bs on medical establishment . Our Voice is our power 💕🙏
Thank you! And yes, it's so good to see more clinicians seeing what this has to offer themselves and their patients!
@anthonychaffeemd Thank You Anthony. I am so grateful you have done all these interviews. I'm hopeful that we are able to blast this out and it can be noticed #seektruth #meathealsus #resilientbiology
I like your comments...👍
Love this! I Started learning about carnivore diet almost a year ago & slowly changing the diet & feeling great. December 2020, I had a 1cm. cancerous tumor removed from my breast. Right before the surgery, someone suggested I do a 10 day fast, eating only fresh fruits & veggies. For me, that was not a problem. (I’ve never been a vegan or vegetarian, nor will I ever be.) after about 3 days on the fast, I noticed my poop didn’t smell, there was actually no odor. The thing is, I was already healthy. One might ask, ‘we’ll how does a healthy person get cancer? Yeah, that’s one of my questions 🙄 So as soon as I was told about the cancer, I went & did my own research & stopped eating & using anything that causes cancer. Like they say, you have to listen & pay attention to your body. Only you know how you feel when you eat or use something on your body. Btw, I didn’t need chemo, but they wanted me to do radiation & this 5 year pill, which I refused & I’m still very healthy. (Not suggesting this to anyone)
Sorry for it being so long. I tried to give the shortest version as possible. Be blessed 💕
Thank you for sharing! Keep strong!!
It was such a knowledgeable conversation, even dr Chaffee's ears perked up more than once and I could see he was amused and sometimes suprised with the input Jake gave. One of the best interviews so far!
Thank you!
As a former Royal Marine I enjoyed this. 10 months ago a nutritionist friend looked in my fridge, (cooler) and laughed! What is all this low fat stuff? I was mortified, thinking how healthy I was. She said she had to lie during her exams to become MSc to comply with the low fat high carb curriculum. So with an open mind I agreed to trial high fat low carb for 90 days. Wow what a difference, been carnivore ever since and not going back.
Amen brethren in arms 🫡
Absolute top class interview, been on and off ketovore for 6 months, now honing it to pure carnivore with the majority of meals being beef of some sort, and I’m already feel tons better!! It’s amazing what it does to you, your awareness becomes finally tuned, you get deep sleep, you wake up refreshed and energised, you feel like superman! Thank you Dr Chaffee, for your awesome content, knowledge and honesty! Absolutely spot on!!!!
That's great to hear! I'm glad you're doing so well. And you are very welcome! I'm glad my videos are helpful
Amazing interview!! Blown away by it!
Thank you very much!
Its so cool to hear a person so enthusiastically speak about what some of us already knew, I never get tired of this...Thank you gentelmen!
Thank you!
Trying to reverse kidney failure whilst on dialysis eating carnivore. It’s not easy but the more i watch and listen the more hope i have. Thank you Dr Chaffee for all you do, i used to be so strong being a builder all day and lifting weights most days, then after 25 years of pushing it on a carb rich diet my kidneys packed up and my bp went to 235/140. Started dialysis 2020 just after id gotten married and my life fell apart. Couldn’t get a hold on my bp for a long long time, not until i started carnivore much to the horror of my clinic nurses and nephrologists. A couple of months in my bp is down to 170/85 on average, still taking 4 different bp meds but suddenly they don’t seem to be doing much with no side affects like before. I am in complete control of my oedema now and my urine has started to darken as opposed to just passing clean water urine which tells me theres some proper function going on with my kidney beans. I’ve stopped having kidney pain that was noticeable with certain meals including carbohydrates. I think I’ve always been carb sensitive and when i think of all the sugar and anabolic post window carbs i stuffed into me 🤮 and yet the nurses and doctors are still pushing carbs even to the diabetics at my clinic and I’d say 80% of the patients there have become diabetics whilst on dialysis.
I’ve started exercising again, don’t seem to need much sleep, my skin tone is better, my stomach has abs, i look more muscular and ripped yet i have gained 5 kg in a couple of months and am having to lie about my dry weight to the nurses or they will just try to take more fluid off me even though i look like an anatomy chart under my clothes. Theres just not much fluid to come off anymore, i feel almost bad when i look at the other patients scoffing toast and biscuits and i just wait til i get home for some beef mince. I dare not say anything because these diabetics are told carbs are important and I’ve upset 2 people already saying that sugar carb’s aren’t helping them and they get very defensive 🙄 i hope i won’t need dialysis one day and can live a normal life again, it’s a massive burden and although it’s saved my life so far I can’t help feeling I wouldn’t have needed it at all had i known about eating this way years ago. My advice to anyone would be don’t avoid going to the doctors for check ups and blood tests, had i not avoided the dr’s for 20 years i could have been diagnosed at an earlier stage and saved some damage on my kidneys from the diet and the high blood pressure. Due to the dietary advice from the docs i tried vegetarianism, veganism, juicing, fruitarian and all that happened was a decline from 10% function down to 3% function in 3 months and hospitalisation with severe oedema and potassium overload. The vegan diet is dangerous so why are they pushing it to the masses? To get us all on meds? Crazy times
Yes, it's crazy times in many ways. Keep up...👍
Hi friend. I got shot in the kidney (Wagner group Syrian oil field) and I was on dialysis. They told me I'd have to stay on it because of the scar tissue in my kidney. I am no longer on dialysis friend this diet seems to have even taken care of the scar tissue on the interior of the kidney (something by the way that the doctors said was "impossible"). I just thought I'd take the time out of my day to let you know that in my humble opinion there are "doctors" that pumped me full of medication and told me there was nothing I could do and to just adjust and live with it and my new sick reality and DOCTORS like Dr Chaffee and there is a HUGE chasm of a difference. In my opinion the difference your mind and mental framework makes to your recovery and health is also HUGE and you seem to be in the right place friend. I recovered from dialysis with my kidney apparently looking like "Someone got a cigarette lighter and burnt a section of it meaning it simply will not be able to filter or function properly ever, think of a bathroom sponge that's been burnt with a lighter and it's ability to filter the water through" etc etc blah blah. They ALL turned out to be wrong friend. This diet truly redefines what "health" actually is and sets a new bar on what a human being can actually recover from as each individual mitochondria has greater ATP than what's considered "normal" (it's just a biological acronym for energy really friend) so there is DEFINITELY light at the end of the tunnel for you as I am literally living proof that dialysis isn't permenant in some instances and if you are properly nourished it's mind blowing what your body is capable of recovering from we are literally like wolverine when properly nourished. Chin up our bodies WANT to be functioning optimally and now that you are dealing with the nutritional side friend ANYTHING is possible. Sending you positive healing vibes you got this x
@@Fuckgoogle-tg5kz Thanks so much for your story, it gives me more hope cos i too was told the scarring of my kidneys is unfixable and my only option is dialysis and then a transplant. I really don’t want to go the transplant route and am praying now that i DONT get the call as I’m actually doing ok. Great to hear you got through it and even better to know scar tissue is actually repairable. Thanks again
Wow. Thank you for sharing. Keep strong!! 💪
@@LauraB.335I obviously meant "controlled" they are not wearing make up 😂

Thank you Leon!
Great conversation! Jake, your mother sounds like someone that many of us seniors would love to hear from! “She looks like a bionic human” and amazes her doctors! I’m 68 and just started Carnivore Diet 33 days ago. I’ve only lost 2 lbs so far, but I’m feeling really good and I feel stronger, even though I haven’t started exercising, yet. I really love how you are so in tune with your body and talk about your personal experiences and observations. Loved the comparison of 100 percent breast milk or all beef diet, vs a plant based, multi-ingredient diet. You two have been most inspiring! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Thank you!
Ego pride or humility, it's a choice
Anthony~
I agree with the others.. the level of intelligent conversation just keeps getting better & better. And that's what first attracted me to your channel/podcasts-- intelligent information and discussion. I dont know how anyone could not be intrigued and persuaded to try this way of life after listening to this or any of your interviews.
This one moved me again to whole-heartedly appreciate and thank you for all you do to share the truth about health. ❤
To Anthony, this guy is without a doubt the most influencing guests you have had,so much more than the contextual benefits of carnivore. Some will lose by being put off by his confidence and mode he is operating on , but like most things that are truly valuable are scarce or hard to find or even hidden because most of the masses that are Sick and confused have lost their way he Is a model that can be adhered to. Good job
Yep, he has a very influential voice. Great analogies too.
Thank you Perry!! Glad you liked it!

Hahaha thank you for sticking with us Piper!
That was one of the best parts❣️🥳
Don't forget he touched it too 🤣🤢
Finally someone that has tested a strict carnivore diet on running marathons! Even taken it a step further with no water! Amazing! I was breaking my diet during long runs and races thinking it was necessary to have some carbs or caffeine. So unnecessary and harmful! Now I've been training while strict carnivore, just meat/eggs/salt/water and my performance and body composition are the best ever! Amazing stuff! ❤ Thank you both! Loved the interview!
Hell yeah! Get some!
I am going to rewatch/relisten to this episode every day for the next week at a minimum....Outstanding on so many levels...
Wow, thank you so much, I'm really glad you liked it!
Many thanks Patrick. Enjoy!
Excellent interview!! Really enjoyed it!
Thank you very much!
I'm glad you brought it up. I was worried about my lack of boul movement. But now I understand.
Hi Jake! I’ve trained and ran two marathons while on carnivore diet! My first two! 4:10 then 4:07. Got plans to break that 4 hour barrier! I’m 32 yo female! But would you believe, I got brainwashed a few months ago and was vegan for an about 1.5 months and ended up getting a stress fracture to my 4th metatarsal!😩idk what I was thinking! What another CLEAR SIGN that plants are trying to kill me🤣train and completed TWO marathons! Then I do vegan for 6 weeks and boom, my bones start breaking 😂Lordy I’m back on track now, it’s been 5 weeks since the injury and I’m so so close to being back full running! Walking and stairmaster are no issue! But running-almost there! Plant based Never again! Houston marathon this coming January! Plans to break 4 hours!! Eat meat, run, repeat!🥩🏃🏼♀️
Thank you, Gentlemen! That was awesome and you are definitely my tribe! 🙌
I'm listening to this at work, been carnivore for a little over a month, feel great and will keep going, experiencing and experimenting for myself. Wonderful conversation highly informative and motivational. Thank you both.
Thank you!
This was a wonderful interview and it feels like what many of us go through on ourselves along with our friends and families.
Thank you very much, I really appreciate that!
Thank you. Happy to support.
AweSum interview. It is so fun to see how each person's passion for helping people projects forth in such unique ways. It is clear that Jake has a wealth of personal experience and experimentation, along with a depth of research in the nutrition space for all that he shares. I feel enriched from this time with you two. Thank you!
Thank you!
What a thoughtful, intelligent and compassionate guest. A superbly interesting video.
Thank you!
Nice job Doc, he’s a great guest.
Thanks for sharing this interview, dr. Chaffee. I did carnivore recently for three weeks and felt great. Then I got a craving for “something else” and regrettably caved in. Back on the carnivore wagon again now. Greetings from Oslo, Norway.
You got this. 💪
@@lifelikejake Thank you for your support
So glad to have seen this episode. I have a 41 mile Ultramarathon in November. My first ever Ultra as a carnivore....I have been a little nervous of the unknown 😅.
You got it!!! Blaze the trail!!! 👊👊
Just listeling in AWE to Jake.
His metaphors are off the charts! And he is funny as well.
Haha thank you
Gotta say #2 in my most favorite vids I’ve watched so far in the carnivurse. Not because of the information but the PASSION Jake has when he speaks. #1 to me is with Richard Smith. He also speaks with absolute devotion. I can feel his words as they resonate with me. Richard also has a kick ass accent! Like grounds keeper willie! Keep ‘em comin doc!
Glad you liked it! Haha, it is a good accent! 😂
Thank you my friend. Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you both for sharing your wisdom much respect always 🙏 👏 love from Ireland 🇮🇪
Ran a 50k trail run on just water and base salt. Was a hot day, 2nd half of the run, many had stomach cramps. My stomach felt great the whole race. That was just 60 days or so of carnivore, after a few years of mostly low carb.
Amazing! Well done sir!
Wow, that's 31 miles. AAAaaaAAAwesome!!! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
Great video Dr. Chaffee! I have never listened to Jake Thomas before and he has great analogies! I loved the one that our body does best when given one item that is packed full of nutrition( which I am adding is packed with all the nutrients we need in a day- beef and other remanent meats! Example- beef-it is a food pyramid all by itself! In fact- someone should design a food pyramid on just the cow and show it’s breakdown in a food pyramid fashion-it alone is a healthy balanced diet!) But Jake’s analogy on how like a human baby with breastmilk and getting all it needs, anyone weaned from that and moving to remanent meat- the human body says- “oh, ok, it’s just beef- we are good, can work and build while beef alone is here.” But when we add a bunch of other mess- including plant based foods- processed or whole (raw or cooked) the body can’t relax and has to be constantly focused on figuring out where all that mess goes and if plant based it’s working hard to flush it out and any other toxins (like sugar and fiber- both plant based) that enter your mouth!
Ok, speaking from my heart and venting a bit, I recently found out that the 7th Day Adventists Christians are the ones that designed our current food pyramid, RDA, they own companies like Kellogg’s and Coca Cola, are running our “health” organizations and wrote curriculum for doctors on health and nutrition for medical school. Also found out that they are the ones making the “fake meats” and lab grown ones. That they created the vegan and vegetarian diets, first called the “Garden of Eden Vegan Diet” and how their agenda was to harm hormones, prevent fertility, but main was they knew plants harm the body and said they would rather be sick for a lifetime and rise at the end of their time than eat meat that makes us healthy. And the more people they have on their Eden Vegan Diet, or just heavy plant based with little to no meat- then they have succeeded.
I understand currently that not all 7th Day Adventists Christians are doing this- that even many are going carnivore- and that’s awesome! They are feeling so healthy. But the 7th Day Adventists Christians that are still pushing the plant heavy diets for their agenda onto the whole human race as they think that will help them rise at the end- I don’t agree with that religious agenda being secretly forced on the human race. That’s why I hope the food pyramid is redone and based on science- not their religious ideology like the current one made by them. The RDA needs to be redone and based on true science! That the Big plant food industry’s power to make decision on human kinds nutrition be made illegal and not allowed. They can’t be allowed to buy into organizations like the AHA. Also, unless a school is a “7th Day Adventists Christian Schoon that clearly states their food rules of “no meat” days and “vegan” days- bought or brought from home- regular public schools should NOT be allowed to force “no meat” or “vegan” days on students due to that also being a 7th Day Adventist Christian Religious Ideology that you can’t force on regular public school kids in any country! And them taking children’s home packed lunches from a child that contain animal meat because they brought it on a “vegan” or “no meat day” is a lawsuit waiting to happen if in a regular public school!
But I hope the world understands that our current food pyramid and RDA, and all the nutrition and health bologna from the past 150+ years was purely run off a religion based 7th Day Adventists Christian ideology- not science based at all! I just want to keep repeating this here- but our food pyramid is not science based! That’s why everyone is sick with illnesses, diseases, and cancers! Humans are not meant to consume a heavy plant based diet- and plants today are not the same as they were long ago when humans barely ate them to get by- and were only seasonal! But humans ate mainly meat!
It just upsets me that everyone is so brainwashed off a religion based ideology and they have no clue on that! If the world had stayed more human ancestral with a primarily meat heavy and animal saturated fat based diet- the world would be a very different place! Peace would be more wide spread! All the wars we have seen probably wouldn’t have been or not as bad, science and technology would be way further along! Who knows- we could have been traveling to other planets easily by now! Humans would know their true born identify- hormones not screwed up! The human race would be living closer to 120 like our telomeres show! People would have been so much happier! No illnesses, diseases, and cancers! I want to see this carnivore diet continue to spread- and letting people know that the current food pyramid was a religious 7th Day Adventists Christian religious ideology, human kind would snap out of this plant based brainwashed matrix faster and go carnivore. Hope more realize the truth. Big Pharma and Big plant food industry took a greedy profit margin take from the 7th Day Adventists Christians agenda when they got involved and the two corrupt masses went full swing to make human kind sick! Time to end the plant based matrix and unplug everyone so they can see the truth! (I love saying analogies too! Haha ☺️).
The carnivore diet is the human ancestral way of eating, not a fad! And science includes observable data collecting! Well, we can clearly see the thousands healing on a carnivore diet! From people just beginning carnivore to people like Maggie White, age 82 but looks like she is 60 or less-she on carnivore for 65+ years and still working on her ranch daily for 14+ hours! She’s super healthy!
Have a great day Dr. Chaffee! I appreciate you and all that you do!
Funny thing is, the basis of the dietary advise is not biblical
Why pick on Christian cults?
Look at Hindus and punjabis or other religions that don't eat meat as a central part of the diet.
@@cornstar1253 not picking, just informing on facts and the base that their religious ideology was forced on to human kind and no science based backing up the food pyramid, RDA, and many other things. The world is in a crisis of illnesses, diseases, and cancers due to the 7th day Adventists Christians religious ideology. Not good.

Wow he is so real on the metaphors. Your content always inspires me to keep going. Ex elite cyclist with a former carb and alcohol addiction..now carnivore with an occasional beet or grilled no carb veggies..feeling amazing!
Thank you so much Dr Chaffe and Jake for the excellent conversation. Carnivore for 44 days and great results! Always healthy and athletic but need to add a few pounds. Thank you Dr Chaffe also for the X3 Bar discount! Im going to be an animal like you. At 5'8" and 112 lbs I have a way to go 😂 but I will do it!!

Thank you Doc this is great listening. Jake Thomas 💯 showing so many experiences and examples you nailed it ❤
Thank you 🤗
Thank you Ramona!
People can do what they can do for themselves or not. Their choice. Personally at 68, I learned to filter out all the noise. Cant worry about what is going to happen. My advice is keep your life simple.
I'm happy I learned about carnivore, but I'm pissed to have lived 70 years before I saw "Plants Are Trying To Kill You" and Dr. Chaffee introduced me to carnivore! I started "full on" the very next day on July 8, 2023! Bless everyone willing to learn and take action!
68 yrs here. I feel the same
Dr. Chaffee - would you agree at all with this -- our bodies are not machines but intelligent intricate complex systems that have a drive or agenda to thrive and survive - and what we eat is not just fuel and building material but also information and messaging and instructions that can either work in sync with the body's goals and agenda or against them. The body will always attempt to thrive and sustain optimal life but an onslaught of destructive messaging, supply chain obstruction and confusion, and toxins and repeated insults will eventually wreck it and kill it.
Love it! That’s perfect! Dr. Chaffee would agree I assume.
I have moved from keto to carnivore. I am calm, sleeping well, cravings are not bad, I'm not hungry, no brain fog. I'm using tallow on my skin and it glows! And I'm walking 2 miles every day and lifting weights. I mean I am 77 years old and I could go on and on!
Thank you for this motivational discussion! I still struggle eating & drinking crap and keep reminding my self it’s literally scat! Minute 57 living to eat. Need to lose nearly half of my self in weight, but more importantly I want to live a productive life, one I haven’t lived in the last 7 years. Thank you! 🥰
You got this!! 💪
Great podcast. I’m from New Orleans so def piqued my interest! Jake’s message resonates. Food/alcohol is HUGE in New Orleans. Fighting hard--friends are seeing my success but they roll their eyes when I tell them. My family tolerates me-it’s so hard to stay quiet when feeling and seeing such benefits. Y’all keep up the good fight! It’s coming around!!

I can totally relate to Jake Thomas on my experience as an 8 month carnivore and the VA health system. I came from a place of high cholesterol (280), super high triglycerides (600-700), low HDL (28). normal LDL and somewhat high fasting glucose (110). I've always ate a supposedly 'balanced' and low fat diet and was not obese at all at 56yo, 6ft 189lbs and yet, after 8 months on carnivore, and without much exercise due to back fusion surgery, my cholesterol went up to 619, triglycerides down below 100, HDL up in the 70s, high LDL at 538 and fasting glucose down in the 70s. I also Lost 30 lbs (of mostly inflammation I gather). My also BP went from 120/80 down to 109/70. I haven't felt this good since my 30s and in military service. But you guessed it, the VA wanted me on statins instead of noticing that I lowered my triglycerides and bettered every single metric (except total cholesterol and LDL IAW their metrics) after a decade trying to lower them with medications. Those numbers will only get better as they still need to settle after a lifetime of bad habits and nutrition and just now started excercising again. I obviously kindly declined the myriad of medicatons they offered. I can't help it to think, how many veterans would benefit from promoting a low-carb diet at least. Sad thing is that when I was hospitalized at the VA, all they fed me was pure carbs and some meat, almost no salt. I had plenty of bread and margarine spread. Go figure.
Thank you for your service 🫡

Into my 3rd week as beef only (finished off what bacon I had) and I don't feel weak ... cut out sugar 5 months ago. 240 lbs down to 208 now. As a truck driver I'm struggling to eat 1 pound of meat at 1 setting. Am I starving myself without noticing?

Good lord is this guy single or what omg😳😍the mindset of this one is tip top notch
I was vegan for 5 months and I developed ulcerative colitis. That was 2019. I stopped went back to a normal diet protein and carbs and never got over UC until I started mushroom powders and after 3 months I went into remission late 2022. I'm now on the carnivore diet day 11 and I feel amazing now down 6kg and energy is awesome. Can I ditch the mushrooms now? I'm still taking it because it healed me and I know taking mushroom powders is not a true carnivore.
Congrats Jordan! Well done!
Love this Jake Thomas, Best interview ever!!!
Thank you!
Dr Chaffee, I'm so sorry to bother you in the comments about this. And if you've already made a video (not just a short) about this then my bad. But could you make a video about your method of dehydration of steaks, including temps and times? Again, so very sorry for bothering you. Thank you so much for the videos and info that you put out!
Jake said chickens don't eat grass. That's not correct. My free-range chickens eat grass all the time. I've noticed they also like dandelion leaves
Well said Doug. They do indeed as they forage for bugs and grubs living within it.
Awesome interview!
Thanks switching from Keto to carnivore to clean up my diet. Interesting and informative. Inflammation that I never knew I had, went in about 2 days. Impressed. Look younger too so that's a bonus (might only be in my head😂😅).

🙋Would you ever consider a short video on Autism? My son is 11and on the Spectrum. We do as much protein for him as he will tolerate. No veggies only a little bit of unsweetened applesauce to give the meat a texture he will actually eat. We also make our own ghee and he eats lots of that. I was wondering your thoughts on children's vitamins? I feel that you have an incredible knowledge of the brain as well as nutrition (which is not easy to find.) I desperately want to do my part as a mom to help my son eat and live with autism the best way that he can and I feel you can shed very useful info on that. God bless you for sharing your info with us. I have learned a lot. I am also basically Carnivore. That darn coffee keeps gettin me.😌 Each day I am overcoming a terrible relationship with food and getting comfortable with the just meat lifestyle. I share your content often. It helps others understand why I live this way.😊👍
The light feeling of the GI system makes one want to be more active, simply because of the increase in ease of movement. Supreme point by the guest!!
In the 90s through 2010 I ran/walked about 12 marathons and I was vegetarian…I never ate the high carbs like most of the other runners I was working out with.. they would eat pasta the night before… I ran LA marathons, New York Marathon, palos verdes marathon… I finished every marathon I attempted…I think I would have done much better as a carnivore
Bravo!🙌🏾
Love this talk, You guys are killing it!
Wow, what a wonderful guest, sometimes he argues like a poet. Really fun to watch
Thank you!
When I was on my walk with my dog, we have a police officer that lives on my block and he was coming home from work last night and I said “ hey how are you doing”
He said you look good what’s going on? I said I’m doing the carnivore diet I lost 17 pounds in 6 & 1/2 weeks.
And he said “you know, I just heard about the carnivore diet,” so the word is getting out . 🎉🥳🥳
Amazing talk. Could listen to both of you for days.
What's your take on eating meat raw? I get the same kind of skepticism from other carnivores like I would with people on a SAD diet when I mention I eat most of my meat raw. I've probably eaten 500kg of raw ground lamb and have never had any issues whatsoever.
I love eating meat raw. But by no means is it necessary. Plenty of benefits raw and cooked.
You guys aren't just good,you are Dam Good 👏
“Fascination”
That sez it all.
I am just starting to look into carnivore and find it so innate.
These guys and this video are great.
Thank you!
I love what Jake says ,but we do know our foods are not made healthy and our animals are feed bad stuff .but as everyday people we are helplessly unable to fight the big food management. So we have to eat just meat exercise hope to be our best spread the information as best we can
As an HVAC tech there is a reason why the good foods on the perimeter. Refrigeration and plumbing.
Haha nice one. What about the frozen foods isles in the interior though?
@@lifelikejake extra cost to do that
@@lifelikejake if you would like to help humanity that idea of yours is great. Carnivore baby food would fill an opportunity to help mothers out that are pressed for time. Should be a good market, canned everything from salmon wild caught to canned elk or moose meat. And I think father's would get behind it also. Plus good for the environment. Get a tribe of Inuits to help out. Wild meat along with domesticated.
Jake is a very inspirational speaker
What a great video!!
Thank you!
Well here are two examples that brawn and brain are not necessarily opposed qualities. So I guess I gotta train for brain now.
Great interview. Wish he would have mentioned in more detail how he over did it with calcium while eating lion diet the last 70 days.
Great exchange but what about the argument from Dr Pradip Jamnadis, a big critic of the SAD diet, that you should eat fiber everyday, not for us but for our gut bacteria? They outnumber our cells 10 to 1.
Great question. In short, the human body does not “need” fiber. Additionally, as your fiber consumption goes up, so does your risk of developing diverticular diseases. One study found that people who ate more fiber and had more bowel movements also had a higher likelihood of colon disease. As far as gut bacteria, carnivore dieters’ gut bacteria are so clean and healthy and they likely outnumber cells 100 to 1.
Q. What’s your weight Devil? And how do you maintain it with your weight training on carnivore? I lost weight during the start of mine. Figuring that part out the most. Dr. Chaffee never answers me in other Q&A’s. 🤣
the trick to get Dr Chaffee to answer you is either go into his Q&A stream VERY early and ask instantly before he gets swamped with superchats or give him a few bucks yourself with a superchat
I weight about 235lbs at the moment. Maintaining it is easier on carnivore than anything else, as even when I don't workout I never lose much muscle, or gain fat. I stay very constant as long as I eat enough.
You need to eat as much meat as tastes good, try at least twice a day to make sure you're getting enough. I like to lift weights 4 days a week at least, but rarely have the time to. When I do, my appetite will literally double. When I eat my fill when working out, I stack on muscle more quickly than I ever have in the past
165lbs during the interview. Consistency with eating and training is the key. Calorie surplus to gain and calorie deficit to lose. But without consistency it’s moot. 💪
@@anthonychaffeemd thanks for the info brother!
Semper FI brother!

Hell yeah! ❤
Passionate guy on the point very interesting 🧐
