      I just started carnivore about 3 weeks ago. Already lost over 10 pounds and have a whole lot more energy. I've done keto in the past and found it hard to stick to, but find with this diet it's much easier. I think not allowing any carbohydrates is the key. Thank you for sharing your story. You are an inspiration.

      The main person who used to talk smack about me doing keto, then carnivore (and for using 1 T of heavy whipping cream daily 🤣), was my ex's mother. She was the most toxic, unhealthiest person alive, (survived a brain aneurysm, 2 heart attacks, a stroke which she had to stay at a rehab facility for awhile to learn to walk and talk again, surgeries to remove blood clots, overweight, uses a walker and cane, ect). No lie, right when she wakes up, first thing she does is light up a cigarette and drink a pop, but somehow, someway, it's ME who's unhealthy and sick from eating the way I do, and I'M the one who's going to die. 🤣🤣

    For 5 years I ate plant based. I'm now carnivore for 4 months and I'm coming to realize that my body is healing itself. I have lost 8lbs but my non-scale victories are: gums not bleeding, sleeping almost through the night (up only once), dreaming again, fungus on toes drying up, heartburn 98% better, flashes in my eyes are gone, obsessive food thoughts are gone and brain fog is gone. I'm sticking to this way of eating. I have lost some inches but I'm trusting the process and know that when my insulin resistance goes down my body will release the weight. Never going back!!!!

There are many benefits and most people do lose weight. I have not lost any weight on Carnivore myself and that has been sad for me as I have tried so very hard for nearly five years now. I still keep going though. Today I had a cup of black coffee in the morning and later about 12 ounces of steak . That maintains my weight but doesn't result in any weight loss.

    Yup. 75 here. I cut carbs after being diagnosed with fatty liver disease with NASH and fibrosis in 2019. I backed into keto by just constantly identifying sources of carbs in my diet and eliminating them. About a year and a half ago I transitioned to carnivore. Today I am 60 pounds lighter and normal weight. My liver is now normal with no disease. I do 35+ pushups per set and 25+ inverted rows per set. I take no prescription meds. I am stronger and healthier than I have been in decades. Every day is good.

    In 1987, when I was in my 20's, I was having problems and I went to the endo. He ran tests and said that I was hypoglycemic and prediabetic. I was not overweight, but he said, "No more carbs for you". I went home and cried to give up carbs, but I was afraid of diabetes, so I did it. In one week, all my problems went away. I was so ecstatic that I told all my friends. They were horrified. They said I was going to get fat and die young from a heart attack or stroke. I felt so good, that I didn't care. I had stuck with it all these years because when I cheat, then in 2 hours, all my old problems (from the insulin dump) come right back. Now I am in my 60's. I am still slender, energetic and healthy. My friends who told me this was dangerous: they are overweight, diabetic, autoimmune diseases, and some have died of stroke and heart attacks. I also lift weights now. I am not a bodybuilder, but I am strong and flexible, just like when I was young. I remember how I cried when the doctor said, "No more carbs for you". Now I could kiss his feet for giving me the Fountain of Youth.

I've been a carnivore for a full year now and I'm grateful to you for reminding me of health improvements I wasn't even aware of, because we take everything that's good for granted. I would like to add some of what I noticed, which you did not mention, the absence of bad body odors, no more bloating, gas, stomach pains, no bad feeling in the mouth in the morning, after waking up. I am 69 years old. I no longer have urinary incontinence, frequent and painful bladder infections, swollen joints, puffy face, irritability, pessimism, and fears. All that was replaced by will, cheerfulness, a youthful state of mind. God bless youTube who accidentally offered me a video on the carnivore diet. That's where it all started! Thanks heavens!

    Just like week it was found that a Keto diet is the best diet for people with MS. My mother died of complications of MS. She spent her whole life battling being overweight, due to the SAD diet and died before her time because doctors refused to consider her diet, prescribed by them, was killing her. Doctors don't learn nutrition in med school, so they know very little about it. Doctors were fooled by the SAD, just like the rest of us. I have lost several relatives for no good reason because the American diet is such a sacred cow no one has questioned it. I am angry, so angry, at their needless suffering.I also believe the food industry and the pharmaceutical industry are fine with slaughtering us, as long as they are banking big bucks.

    Been doing Keto for 2 years started carnivore March 17th. Feeling absolutely amazing. Joint pains gone, was intending to go to the chiropractor but no need now. Started doing press-ups ,first week did 35/day, which was 5 up on what I usually do. Gone up steadily every day, did 70 a few days ago!! Can’t believe it!! What I did add was boron which was suggested by one of the many doctors I follow on TH-cam. That took it to another level. 67 years young. I will never eat vegetables again. No carbs, absolutely no carbs. Have used sugar in coffee or tea for at least 40 years
    Another effect of this diet is that plaque on my teeth has completely gone. After about a week I could feel it coming off, very strange sensation. In addition no more bleeding gums. Only take thyroxine for my under active thyroid. Hope to get off of this over the next year on this diet.

    First low carb, then Keto, then mostly red meat Keto. That has been the last 14 years. But I noticed at almost 60, my hair and nails were thinning and my skin was starting to wrinkle. Our species typically hunted every day. And when we got an animal, what were the prized cuts? Throughout history and across cultures, the heart and liver were considered sacred foods. They went to the hunter, the chief, pregnant women, etc. I thought, what if I ate like I was the most successful hunter ever? I started eating ground heart meat and liver, both from beef cattle, every day. The changes have been amazing. Particularly the liver. I started with a small piece a day and noticed my skin, nails and hair improving. So I increased the amount and the improvements increased too. I am up to a pound of liver a week and 3 lbs of ground heart meat. The improvements are amazing. I routinely get mistaken for someone in their 30's. But its not just the appearance, my sleep, mental concentration and energy levels feel like my 30's too. I don't know what to call my diet- maybe carnivore warrior 🙂? But adding large amounts of beef heart and liver has taken me to the next level.

    I'm 63 with full blown emphysema, mild arthritis and lifelong depression which until recently I was able to manage naturally, no meds, Don't drink alcohol or smoke anything. Bi-weekly acupuncture, keto diet and vitamin supplements, keto since 2010 and maintained a 50 lb weight loss(went from 162 lbs to 112, Im 5 foot 2). But it was always a battle with the Food Monster, and recently, anxiety. Started doing OMAD (one meal a day) 2 years ago with the occasional 1 or 2 day fast. But it wasn't enough. The emphysema was getting worse, and despite no meds and biweekly acupuncture, the violent coughing fits got worse and worse. Saw Dr. Berry, your channel, and Carnvorous Me and decided to give it a go. A month ago, did keto carnivore. Then on July 17th, started strict carnivore, NO veggies. Then on July 25th, I cut out coffee, heavy cream, and stevia. I take Keto Chow and some vitamin supplements. Eventually I will do lion diet. But for now, I have NO ARTHRITIC PAIN in my ankles, hands, or back. And I still cough, but NO VIOLENT COUGHING FITS for the first time in YEARS! And I've won The Battle of the FOOD Monster, NO CRAVINGS! And no bloody gums!! Thank you for all you do, looking forward to better health, and being able to travel from New Mexico to Maine to visit my kids, which I haven't been able to do for the last 2 years due to shortness of breath and tachycardia. Much love to you and your family, Kerry from New Mexico USA thanks for this awesome interview!

      @@ladeene06 Sugar and carb (wheat) addicts are just that - addicts. Both of them hit the brain in the exact same way that cocaine does. When I tried going keto (but lower fat, basically a Dukan diet), I panicked thinking of what I couldn't have and there was a lot of backtracking. Now I've learned from various YT videos how to make anything that I might crave, but ketofied. Chocolate, waffles, muffins, bread, cookies - everything has a keto or high protein, low fat, very low carb equivalent. Once I could default to my new recipes, I calmed down about what I might be missing. It doesn't seem that important anymore, or I've finally kicked the addiction. Living on ketones is very Zen-cheerful and I like the feeling compared to the energy crashes I used to get, as well as the constant hunger. I've often wondered why no one opens up a 'Boot Camp' on an isolated island for sugar/wheat addicts to go to, to get off of the stuff. The only way for some people to wake up is to not have a 7-11 or grocery store anywhere available to them. Isolation plus 'here's your food for the day, no sugar or wheat for you' plus seeing how they feel after a few days.

    SO INSPIRING!! LOVE THIS! As a 55 yr old fatty, I'm super excited by all this information. I've been doing Keto/Carnivore since late Aug 2022, it's early June 2023. I'm down close to 50 pounds!! Literally like 1-5 pounds away and my weight is funny, I get to that 50 pound mark and then gain a few then lose and gain more then lose more. hahaha it's a rollercoaster.
    BUT I weight myself everyday and I'm 100% not even worried about this. I'm simply in a short plateau, which happens. My body is doing whatever it needs to be healthy and this has happened often in these 9 months and the weight loss picks up again when my body is ready. I was literally stuck at 300+ pounds for like a month. It was so frustrating because weeks before I was losing weight effortlessly. Thankfully Dr. Ken Berry and others encouraged me NOT to worry, NOT to get hung up, TO trust my body and keep doing what I've been doing. That was almost 20+ pounds ago and so many months ago I can't hardly even remember.
    THE BEST FEELING is to hear guys like Ron talk about doing this at his age and feeling AMAZING! When you've lived to your 50s and had nothing but the slowly creeping waist, the ever increasing weight, the decreasing mobility, YOU will realize that 70s do NOT look good AT ALL. BUt now I'm excited for the future. I've recently rediscovered the wonderous flavors and fun of grilling out. I haven't done that in DECADES, literally. I'm also so grateful for this way of eating and all the people who talk about it on TH-cam and share their experiences.
    LIFE is now full of possibilities and I'm not even close to my goal weight of 185! But it's only a matter of time before I get there. Thanks again for sharing this vid.

    I'm a 57 y.o. guy and I've been carnivore for 4 years now. I wish I was having all the benefits that these two guys are. I have a lot of pain in my feet and joints, low energy, tired, no motivation. I still get cramps in my feet at night. I sometimes have digestive issues. I eat mostly ground beef with some eggs on some days.

      I hope your situation improves. I've been carnivore for close to three years and have experienced all of the great benefits. Mostly eat fatty cuts of beef that I buy on sale. Untrimmed tri-tip is my all time favorite. I don't shy away from butter either! Sometimes I'll eat sardines or chicken. Especially like chicken thighs heavily salted and grilled till the skin is crispy. I'm sure by now you've tried adding more salt or an electrolyte mix or more fat, but if not, give it a go.

      Make sure you are not dehydrated (alone with some of the other advice here). Caffeine (if you drink enough of it) can be dehydrating. I saw a reply to another video on this subject - the guy replying said he was a chiropractor and that he recommended giving up coffee in situations like yours, specifically back pain.Or you could just cut back on the caffeine. See your doctor about the low energy issue. Much of that can be checked with blood tests for thyroid and other problems.

    I am on day 2 of the carnivore diet. I had a great sleep but i always thankfully do. I am 47 years young but already i find my breathing has improved. I am not overweight but i still want to lose a couple of pounds. I run about 20 miles a week and will be interested to see how much progress i will make in the future.
    Thanks so much for a very informative production. Just a side note. The people on carnivore diet all seem really nice and happy.
    Wishing you all well ❤

    One of the downsides of losing weight, is losing strength (or capability). I remember working in Yellowknife and tying down Hercules skids, I didn't have enough weight to push down the binder handle, without a long pipe. I ended up setting all the chains and binders and my partner who was 380 snapped them down with ease. That is why Brian Shaw is so strong, big factor is weight. You said you workout now, if you did when you had weight, you'd see the difference now. I exercise every day, example putting free weights over my head was easy when I was 200, completely different now at 175, I am not as stable in my stance. Love what you are doing, very interesting to follow your journey. Cheers.

    Great video! I am 71 and just started the carnivore diet 32 days ago. So far I’m down about 15 pounds, can’t really say where there is much else I notice. While we were watching the video and you mentioned your snoring, my wife said she hasn’t heard me snoring lately either. I am looking forward to getting more weight off and having my energy get boosted. I started at 240 and this morning weighed 224.

    Including almost a stick of butter a day. Have some in coffee in the AM some in my eggs for dinner and just eat a big chunk before bed. Helps me sleep, not feel anxious or depressed.

  • @twofarg0ne763
    @twofarg0ne763 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm 74. I started my weight loss journey 2 and a half years ago. At the time I weighed 254 pounds. I was borderline diabetic, my blood pressure was 175/140, I had severe acid reflux, auto-immune skin rashes all over my legs, bleeding gums, arthritis in my shoulders, knees, wrists and fingers, plus I had sleep apnea. After a year and a half on Keto I weighed 215 and several of my health issues improved, but were not completely gone. I hit a plateau at 215 and could not seem to lose any more weight, so a friend suggested carnivore. I've been carnivore for a year now. My weight is 163, by blood pressure is 125/68 and ALL of my other heath issues are gone. I had a complete physical at the VA last week. My doctor was amazed at the results of my blood tests. He said I was healthier than 85% of his other patients. That's pretty good considering he's seeing patients in their 20's into their 90's.

    I’ve had incredible results with the carnivore/keto diet. I’ve lost about 45 pounds since last November amazing ! I’ll never go back to eating the standard American crap diet. No wonder the standard American sick care wants to bury this . the best “diet” i’ve ever been on. I don’t like to call it a diet. It’s definitely a lifestyle I don’t plan on ever going back to carbohydrates and sugar again and no you don’t need to exercise to lose weight matter-of-fact you’re not gonna probably lose weight in the gym. I go to the gym because I like it,I am Not your average person when it comes to my daily activity levels. I have cerebral palsy and utilize a power wheelchair for my mobility so my physical activity is not the same as everybody else’s but yet I was still able to basically transform my body with this way of eating, now I do enjoy going to the gym since carnivore I’ve been able to do 6 to 8 miles a day on the stationary hand bike at the gym and it’s gotten to the point where I don’t feel normal unless I do 5 to 6 miles every day. I could’ve never done this on the American crap diet hoping everybody comes around this way of eating.

    I am new to low carb/carnivore and keep falling off the wagon while pushing my shopping cart down the dreaded "Cookie" aisle at my supermarket. I got myself off the chips and nacho chips, etc., thank goodness, especially because excess salt has an adverse effect on bone density (I think Dr. Berry said that??) -----So-----Maybe I should shop at: 1. Butcher shop. 2. Fresh vegetable/fruit stand for green stuff and berries. My Publix is like a fairy wonderland of carboholic delight. My sugar habit was well started in childhood. We were all normal weight back then but I am 77 and nearly pre-diabetic. My older siblings already have diabetes. So here is my motivation.

      I work in a supermarket and when I'm on the till I play a game in my head "yes, no, no, no, yes, no, no" the amoubt of foods that have sugar in them is astounding and scarry, i watch people shovel all this sugar into their trollies and im amazed at how nutritionaly barren it all is.

    I understand the concerns of vegetarians and vegans as far as the ethical treatment of animals go. But I also think that moderate protein intake is normal for humans. Our ancestors spend days following the herds, killing what they could eat and then feasting and drying the meat they couldn't consume all at once. They planned for the upcoming winters and only had fruits and vegetables during the fall season. Year round access to sugar and grains is NOT normal.
