I have been having huge inflammatory responses since that morbid vaccine a few years back. Carnivore diet is the only thing i can do to make the pain semi bearable. Never would i have thought i could go from where I was to disabled and have my doctor ignore the inflammation complaints every time I saw her. When i refused to take anymore vaccine this year she quickly made note of that on my file. It's been a long and painful journey because of nerve damage I believe, but thanks to doctors like Anthony I have hope and plan to stay carnivore forever. Thankyou doctor you are a God send to many.
I was diagnosed with primary progressive 14 years ago… i started the Wahl’s Protocol 14 months ago, in the midst of that i realized I have Celiac’s… I couldn’t walk. Started Carnivore a month ago… Last Sunday I donated my wheelchair and walker to an old’s folks home down the street!! There’s sooo much hope my friends… but it starts with MEAT!
That's amazing and I'm so happy for you. My daughter has relapsing remitting and coeliac disease and has those 6 month infusions which I'm sure are very harsh chemicals on the body. I'm carnivore and I'm hoping she'll embrace this way of eating too.
That's great, it's such a shame but it seems most people with ms have difficulty believing the food they eat will make any difference. I tried the Wahl's diet but my arthritis quickly became unbearable. Carnivore is so much better.
Wish my ibd specialist was on the same page as you. I stopped my chrons using the lion diet. No drug was able to do that. When I add in coffee I get symptoms. Meat and water is all you need 😊
That's amazing to here! I have a friend with chron's/ colitis who has been working very hard the last few years trying to eat "clean", however she eats tons of fiber and plants and I can't convince her that her bowels do not benefit from from fiber whatsoever. It's hard to watch and I have tried to convince her to at least try carnivore, but she doesn't seem convinced. Unfortunately she has already had 1 bowel surgery with a blockage, yet still thinks she needs fiber... I am not sure how else to help her :(
You are 100% correct!!! I thought the same exact thing with autoimmune disease, and always asked the Dr's " but why would your body attack itself?" Unfortunately I didn't understand it like I do now and my wife needed a liver transplant 10+ years ago 😢. If I knew then, what I know now she would never have needed it. We went through hell on earth with the medical establishment, but at least she's doing a lot better now that, I have her doing carnivore, even though she fought me kicking & screaming every ounce of the way with her carb & sugar addiction.
@@ErnestoGluecksmann Yes she finally admits her diet was the root cause of her many health ailments, but it's been a journey, she was severely addicted to carbs/sugar. My constant talking about it, and her seeing me transform into a super human, when I was in pretty bad shape myself, before carnivore, and playing all the good Dr's video's like Chafee, Berry and the rest, it finally sunk in. She still gets some cravings, but at least she doesn't give in to them anymore. I've seen many positive changes in her, more energy, her brain is working so much better, she's not lazy anymore she just does what needs to get done. We've been lowering her meds very slowly, against her Dr's demands (all they want to do is give her more & more) and her liver #'s have been getting better & better. The one downside is, her senses are so much better now she can smell my BO if I've been excercising from a mile away now ;)
@dannyc9784 thanks for sharing. Then there is hope for me and my spouse. My wife hasn't been as interested in the technicalities of nutrition and I certainly have become a broken record about it all. But I'm not giving up.
Hi, doc! Same I've heard from Wayne Rowland in 1996 video. The difference is: he was engineer and you are real doctor. Thank you for all statements and advises! From one autistic mum.
Fasting can help a great deal here because it weeds out the B cells that make antigens, and whenever your body makes new ones it refines the process to make less damaging ones. It also can lead to the creation of T reg cells which will clamp down on autoimmune reaction hotspots and neutralize them. Stem cells are required for this and 72+h fasts will release them.
Anthony, I love your idea about a broad education vs a narrow one. As you point out, when there is no “cross mixing” of information of seemingly “unrelated” subjects, it could possibly miss an “aha moment” of a serendipitous idea or discovery.
Hi Anthony, Every video you post, I get something useful from. Some of this information has been life changing for me - handling SIBO, IBS, Sarcopenia, brain fog, mental abitity, etc. And this one on autoimmunity just tops the charts. Your explanation of autoimmunity agrees with everything I have ever experienced, heard or read concerning autoimmunity. Thank you so much for everything you do and bringing such ground breaking discoveries and knowledge to anyone who wants it.
Periodontal disease is also related to immune response . It was suspected for autoimmunity . The idea of collateral damage makes more sense . Sugar being the real cause - as usual . In commercials they like to connect bad oral hygiene to heart disease . Hinting that if you don’t use their products you’ll get heart problems . Wrong of course , I think . Oral problems come down stream to generally bad health - often with sugar as the root cause , it seems.
I'm coeliac, then developed Ulcerative Colitis and my doctors still told me diet had nothing to do with it. It's gone now. I even a have a list of cross reactive foods from testing when I was 6 years old, which I didn't know about until my mum gave it to me when I had IBD. It's DNA tested proof about all of these food cross reaction issues, no meats are listed as an issue.
@@mattyb1624 did you have to get on an immuno suppressant? I'm going to do the same. If I'm paying these doctors and they gave me shitty advice to begin with, I have to rub it in the faces to wake 'em up. Otherwise they're going to continue with the same BS and ultimately hurt others.
@ErnestoGluecksmann yes I did to initially reduce the inflammation as it went on so long. But it came back a 2nd time really bad despite the immune suppressants. I switched to carnivore just before going to hospital during my 2nd flare up and the symptoms started easing or not getting worse. so I used immune suppressants to help again, and havent had a symptom since and am off all medications. Mine was a severe acute case. Do everything you can, take advantage of meds like infliximab. My point is, it came back on a normal diet but didn't on carnivore. Start with steamed white fish and steamed chicken, then add fatty meat after a few weeks slowly. NOTHING ELSE for at least 6 months. No dairy, oils, seasoning. Your body needs time to heal.
If you are right that not eating gluten stops the attack even id antibody level is very high (we have celiac in the family) this is really great news! This is your best film and I watched plenty.
Hi Doc. Great podcast. big fan here... Very interesting. Question. How does PMA [auto suggestion/personal mental attitude] influence your immune system, and if it does, could you give some examples? thanks.
Hi, I've always had intestinal issues, but 1 year ago, it really became worse, i was constipated, after every meal i was so bloated, my stomach hurts every time I ate. I removed gluten and lactose and paid attention to anti nutrient and fiber vegetables, i basically opted for an animal based diet, with fruits.. and my symptoms were getting so much better, no bloating or pain after meal, my constipation improved a lot, my joint pain gone away. But i still had sometimes some issues like my break out and acne had lower but still, and i was also constipated sometimes.. I just decided to go carnivore, but since i feel like i'm constipated, i have more bloating, and whenever i eat a lot of fat, it's even worse, though my skin issues have got a lot better, I'm constipated and my stool is really loose. I tried to follow your suggestions, I don't do prolonged fast but i'm always intermittent fasting . I heard about MMC and how damaging can be a bad gut Motility and so I'm thinking of buying ginger root extract, artichoke leaf extract and Bile salts to make it better. **Also, i ate a tons of nuts and gluten before and whenever i would eat many nuts or nut butter, i would get really pointed pain under left or right rib. But saturated fat never done that. I'm wondering what do you think about my situation... Thanks a lot for all the free information that you share.
I remember a doctor telling me that the cause of my vitiligo was in my head 😂 When I've heard about the iodine protocol and got tested with thyroid antibodies, they were crazy high.
@@sansnomI have hashis. I’ve only briefly gone up to 12-20mg. But I don’t feel well when I do. I salt loading. But I came off iodine and now even one drop gives me anxiety.
@@rosssundberg5510 Were you taking all the cofactors to help the Sodium-Iodine symporters? It might be sign of bromine detoxification, it took me 6 months before reaching the 50mg, I went super slow. If I wasn't having any effects then I end up increasing the dosage.
@@sansnomI took selenium for 3 months but stopped because I get so much on a carnivore diet. I didn’t take b2/b3 (other than occasionally to test how it made me feel) and I didn’t do vit c. I felt fine on about 5mg of iodine for about a year but had trouble increasing. Now I can’t even do 2.5mg. Maybe I’ll try again with vit c.
I’ve got crohn’s. Had most of my large colon removed in 1997, had reversal of the ileostomy in 2001. Stomach wise that resolved my issues but left with permanent diarrhoea since. I follow a paleo diet now, have done for the last 10 years. Made a huge difference things for me. I react to loads of foods, tea, coffee, sprouts, broccoli….. I also suffer from gout since 2020. Due to my restrictive diet I was able to identify my gout triggers easily. I believe I have removed most of the foods I react to from my diet but I still get issues the same time of year, every year. March to middle of June and October/November. Has to be environmental as well as food
@@LIBERTYCAP2612 you have to give your micro biome time to adjust to an all meat diet and once it does you’ll be amazed…bacteria that thrive on carbohydrates are overpopulated in your digestive system..once they die off your stomach will be the best it’s ever been ..you need to give it at least 10-30 days to see results..everyone is different depending on how unbalanced your gut microbiome is
I have had issues with my bowels since I was 5 months old. I missed alot of school because of it and other issues but I wasn't diagnosed with crohns until 8 years ago at age 50. I had alot of issues and my doctor at the time said that it was irritable bowel but then I was diagnosed. I have been on mezavant for the last 8 years and I have all the side effects from the med but it keeps my fecal calprotectin level normal finally after 8 years. I am so exhausted. I still have bowel issues everyday and stay house bound mainly. My c reactive protein is still quite elavated.
If they are human then no, It our natural way to eat. There are some people with certain conditions that will have issues. People that have been bitten by Alpha Gall tic for instance.
Except for alpha gal tick, if people don’t do well it simply means they need an additional intervention. Like help for their gallbladder, or small intestinal enzymes, or to replete minerals, or help with methylation. There is no circumstance in which adding carbs back in is healthier - even if it makes symptoms seem to go away. That would just be sacrificing metabolic health. Humans are fat burners, not carb burners.
Depends. Some are so sick they need a binder like soluble fiber or charcoal to remove toxins from bile. I'm one. I eat beef, salt, and charcoal before I saw improvements
I started oxalate dumping when I went carnivore. I had no idea what was happening because I had never heard of oxalates before, but after much investigation I discovered that was what was happening. I had to re-add small amounts of low oxalate vegetables to stop the scalp rash I got from oxalate dumping. I'm about 97% carnivore now.
@@Baptized_in_Fire. Interesting. I left my comment open to unusual things as we can never be certain, Especially after thousands of years of mostly eating wrong. It is great that you found out about your issue eventually. I wouldn't have a clue how a person would find that sort of thing out.
@@Freebird240 Anthony does answer questions as much as he can but obviously can't get to everybody. I have seen him comment many months later on older videos as well.
Have you changed your diet and eliminated everything bar beef, lamb, fish, butter, eggs, cheese, heavy cream, salt & water. You could restrict to just beef if you want to really screw it down. Make sure you’re 75% fat 25% protein. loose stool reduce fat ratio a little.
Where does LADA fit into this idea? I have tested positive for insulin autoantibodies and am slowly producing less and less insulin over time. Eating strict carnivore (no dairy) has allowed me to stay off exogenous insulin and slowed the progression significantly, thankfully, but I’m curious about the link here. Thanks!
I wonder how off you see negative responses from dairy. Because I feel okay including dairy, but with hashis, my antibodies are 1300. I’ve been mostly carnivore for 2 years.
From all the videos I’ve watched since 2006, elevated antibodies can be due to infections/dysbiosis. Dairy proteins are a trigger for autoimmunity, and even fat has protein (butyrophilin)! Ask me how I know 👍🏼
Are you saying that autoimmune conditions are a severe form of allergies?? Immune complexes start from allergies to something causing the body to make antibodies to the cells that are attacked by the antigen ie complexes?? Where am I going wrong? I've had thoughts about this over the last 5 years but my rheumatologist looks at me and shakes his head, but I've been asking about IG for a while. My anti-DS are in the normal range from high, but I still have symptoms, so immune complexes may be part of the problem??
Ok, so I’ve got psoriasis on my knees and elbows and after 3 months of strict Carnivore (meat/eggs/salt/occasional cheese and butter) there was no change. Any tips?
Since you’ve come this far, go a little further. Try lion diet. Ruminant meat, water and possibly salt. No eggs, no dairy. Have a listen to Mikhaila Peterson. She’s been through hell but the lion diet is total elimination. Then after a few months when psoriasis goes away, slowly one at a time over weeks, introduce eggs, then cheese, then butter etc.
Maybe you need more time. Three days of water and salt fasting replaces one third of the immune cells (macrophages?). Go more strict and try the Lion diet. Get natural sunlight exposure. Take oral vitamin D3. My personal goal is for my serum level to be between 100 to 154 (American units). Take 1 teaspoon of Carlsons fish oil daily. Or eat 2 tins of sardines in water. To get your question answered on Dr Chaffee next live stream supper chat what you can afford early. Take care.
Ok, one question. 30% of people have genes predisposing them towards celiac. But only 1% of people have celiac. Why? Why other people do not react to gluten they eat?Gluten gets stuck to their gut too. But there is no reaction. Why?
I believe the gluten sensitive person has an underlying infection, Lyme and co-infections, EBV, etc. Just my theory after being sick for 36 years... 18 years before Lyme and co-infections were diagnosed.
@@tracyd2598 I'm not talking about gluten sensitive. I'm talking about full blown autoimmune celiac. Why people can eat gluten, which gets stuck to their gut for 60 years and at the age of 60 get celiac disease? What changed? And if it was infection what mechanism exactly starts the autoimmune reaction? Tis is the same situation all the time, gluten stuck to gut.
I had mold exposure before my symptoms of celiac started up. Before that I was living on grain and was very overweight (was 210 pounds). But then I was cleaning my grandmother's basement after she had died and there was bad mold down there. Unknown to me I also had Ehlers Danlos Syndrome - hEDS - which also leans you towards leaky gut as the connective tissue is badly made. And EDS is also often comorbid with MCAS mast cell activation syndrome. So its just a jumble of stuff. But the mold exposure seems to be the thing that set it off. Many people state that the mold exposure started up their MCAS and if you also have the celiac gene like I do... Guess it turns that gene on too. Its stress that usually flips the genes on. Any type of bad stress.
@@sarahb.6475 this is a very interesting explanation but still not aswer to the question. you have 2 people with celiac gene. No 1 has celiac, no 2 does not. Both eat gluten. Gluten as a lectin gets stuck to the gut. The body attacks gluten. Why only the body of person no 1 attacks gluten? Why person no 2 does not do it? What is the biological, chemical difference between these people? So no 1 had a mold exposure and? What changed biologically?
I just assumed autoimmune issues were the body attacking things on itself that shouldn’t be there, like lectins, not it attacking itself. I didn’t realize that is not the way that most of the medical world looks at it. Of course they look at it the wrong way. Haha. Anatomy brains vs Physiology brains.
Okay so what about the hormesis dose-response phenomenon in toxicology which also applies to plant foods. While the toxic compounds can pose risks at high levels, they offer health benefits when consumed in small quantities due to the body’s ability to adapt and respond positively to low doses. So, while it might seem counterintuitive, incorporating small amounts of certain plant foods containing natural toxins could be beneficial due to the hormetic affect. So doesn't this highlight the need for a nuanced approach to nutrition that considers both the potential risks and benefits of plants? The dose makes the poison.
@@BlitzerkidSix For some people, yes. For others it's a plain baked potato with their steak once in a while. Whatever amount doesn't give you symptoms is your dose... just like any other poison. Now, if your metabolism is so damaged that you can't handle any dose ever, then obviously your dose is zero. But most people's dose isn't zero.
It is like medicine, Why take it when you have no condition? This is the same thing. A potato with meat will trigger the Randle cycle. There is no required amount of poison.
Nobody got fat and sick from eating vegetables and fruit with their meat. We got fat and sick from being gluttons and stuffing our faces with pizza, beer, french fries, chips, Big Macs, soft drinks, cakes, cookies, ice cream, donuts, etc ALONG WITH the meat, vegetables, and fruit. A plain baked potato, for example, is a completely different food than french fries and potato chips fried in seed oil.
Fwiw, even though fries may have seed oils, the potato is a nightshade which can cause inflammation. I think stress can also cause leaky gut, which can be from SO many sources.
@@DeeElle2 And yet there are people who go on a potato-only diet (one guy did it for a full year) and lose weight and reverse all their chronic health conditions. So while SOME people can't tolerate nightshades, doesn't mean everyone should avoid nightshades.

@@LIBERTYCAP2612 you have to give your micro biome time to adjust to an all meat diet and once it does you’ll be amazed…bacteria that thrive on carbohydrates are overpopulated in your digestive system..once they die off your stomach will be the best it’s ever been ..you need to give it at least 10-30 days to see results..everyone is different depending on how unbalanced your gut microbiome is
I think this theory makes sense.
Wow! This has blown my mind! But now we need to rename so-called auto-immunity! What should we call it? 🤔
I have asked the same question. I have ME myself, really I am not so concerned what to call it but I do like Anthony's theory, Sounds logical.
Wow very interesting, I've got RA. This makes sense.
Can you speak more on Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. Thank you.
I am adding in some iodine (lugols 5%)
And some boron
Doing no carb low carb
But like I’ll still eat some ice berg lettuce
Maybe soon our sick care system will get an overhaul. Wishful thinking but a girl can dream
Will gluten cause ur intestines to have small bleeding spots?
only if you eat it.
I have had issues with my bowels since I was 5 months old. I missed alot of school because of it and other issues but I wasn't diagnosed with crohns until 8 years ago at age 50. I had alot of issues and my doctor at the time said that it was irritable bowel but then I was diagnosed. I have been on mezavant for the last 8 years and I have all the side effects from the med but it keeps my fecal calprotectin level normal finally after 8 years. I am so exhausted. I still have bowel issues everyday and stay house bound mainly. My c reactive protein is still quite elavated.
Dr.Chaffee, I’d love to know your take on germ vs terrain theory(which could also explain autoimmune)
Are there people who should not do a strict carnivore diet? Are there people who do not do well eating just meat, salt, water?
If they are human then no, It our natural way to eat. There are some people with certain conditions that will have issues. People that have been bitten by Alpha Gall tic for instance.
Except for alpha gal tick, if people don’t do well it simply means they need an additional intervention. Like help for their gallbladder, or small intestinal enzymes, or to replete minerals, or help with methylation. There is no circumstance in which adding carbs back in is healthier - even if it makes symptoms seem to go away. That would just be sacrificing metabolic health. Humans are fat burners, not carb burners.
Depends. Some are so sick they need a binder like soluble fiber or charcoal to remove toxins from bile. I'm one. I eat beef, salt, and charcoal before I saw improvements
I started oxalate dumping when I went carnivore. I had no idea what was happening because I had never heard of oxalates before, but after much investigation I discovered that was what was happening. I had to re-add small amounts of low oxalate vegetables to stop the scalp rash I got from oxalate dumping. I'm about 97% carnivore now.
@@Baptized_in_Fire. Interesting. I left my comment open to unusual things as we can never be certain, Especially after thousands of years of mostly eating wrong. It is great that you found out about your issue eventually. I wouldn't have a clue how a person would find that sort of thing out.
Dr What's going on when a person has 6 known autoimmune disease?
If a person has one they usually have several. I have around 5.
Guess he doesn’t answer questions.

1- This is a short clip from a 2hr live stream he did 3 days ago.
2- It's mid afternooon where he lives, so he's probably at work.
@@Freebird240 Anthony does answer questions as much as he can but obviously can't get to everybody. I have seen him comment many months later on older videos as well.
Have you changed your diet and eliminated everything bar beef, lamb, fish, butter, eggs, cheese, heavy cream, salt & water.
You could restrict to just beef if you want to really screw it down. Make sure you’re 75% fat 25% protein. loose stool reduce fat ratio a little.
What about Lupus
Lupus symptoms go away with a Keto or carnivore diet, your improvements will show with your blood work as well as how you feel.
Where does LADA fit into this idea? I have tested positive for insulin autoantibodies and am slowly producing less and less insulin over time. Eating strict carnivore (no dairy) has allowed me to stay off exogenous insulin and slowed the progression significantly, thankfully, but I’m curious about the link here. Thanks!
I wonder how off you see negative responses from dairy. Because I feel okay including dairy, but with hashis, my antibodies are 1300. I’ve been mostly carnivore for 2 years.
I should add, I have histamine responses often and I’m wondering if my autoimmunity is still being triggered by Covid, which is what set me off.
From all the videos I’ve watched since 2006, elevated antibodies can be due to infections/dysbiosis. Dairy proteins are a trigger for autoimmunity, and even fat has protein (butyrophilin)! Ask me how I know 👍🏼
Are you saying that autoimmune conditions are a severe form of allergies??
Immune complexes start from allergies to something causing the body to make antibodies to the cells that are attacked by the antigen ie complexes??
Where am I going wrong?
I've had thoughts about this over the last 5 years but my rheumatologist looks at me and shakes his head, but I've been asking about IG for a while.
My anti-DS are in the normal range from high, but I still have symptoms, so immune complexes may be part of the problem??
How might the carnivore diet help Alzheimer’s- if tau proteins are tangling neurological circuits - what are they reacting to? Anyone?
Ok, so I’ve got psoriasis on my knees and elbows and after 3 months of strict Carnivore (meat/eggs/salt/occasional cheese and butter) there was no change. Any tips?
Since you’ve come this far, go a little further. Try lion diet. Ruminant meat, water and possibly salt. No eggs, no dairy. Have a listen to Mikhaila Peterson. She’s been through hell but the lion diet is total elimination. Then after a few months when psoriasis goes away, slowly one at a time over weeks, introduce eggs, then cheese, then butter etc.
Maybe you need more time.
Three days of water and salt fasting replaces one third of the immune cells (macrophages?).
Go more strict and try the Lion diet.
Get natural sunlight exposure.
Take oral vitamin D3. My personal goal is for my serum level to be between 100 to 154 (American units).
Take 1 teaspoon of Carlsons fish oil daily. Or eat 2 tins of sardines in water.
To get your question answered on Dr Chaffee next live stream supper chat what you can afford early.
Take care.
Try no dairy, ruminant only

Ok, one question. 30% of people have genes predisposing them towards celiac. But only 1% of people have celiac. Why? Why other people do not react to gluten they eat?Gluten gets stuck to their gut too. But there is no reaction. Why?
I believe the gluten sensitive person has an underlying infection, Lyme and co-infections, EBV, etc.
Just my theory after being sick for 36 years...
18 years before Lyme and co-infections were diagnosed.
@@tracyd2598 I'm not talking about gluten sensitive. I'm talking about full blown autoimmune celiac. Why people can eat gluten, which gets stuck to their gut for 60 years and at the age of 60 get celiac disease? What changed? And if it was infection what mechanism exactly starts the autoimmune reaction? Tis is the same situation all the time, gluten stuck to gut.
I had mold exposure before my symptoms of celiac started up. Before that I was living on grain and was very overweight (was 210 pounds). But then I was cleaning my grandmother's basement after she had died and there was bad mold down there. Unknown to me I also had Ehlers Danlos Syndrome - hEDS - which also leans you towards leaky gut as the connective tissue is badly made. And EDS is also often comorbid with MCAS mast cell activation syndrome. So its just a jumble of stuff. But the mold exposure seems to be the thing that set it off. Many people state that the mold exposure started up their MCAS and if you also have the celiac gene like I do... Guess it turns that gene on too. Its stress that usually flips the genes on. Any type of bad stress.
@@sarahb.6475 this is a very interesting explanation but still not aswer to the question. you have 2 people with celiac gene. No 1 has celiac, no 2 does not. Both eat gluten. Gluten as a lectin gets stuck to the gut. The body attacks gluten. Why only the body of person no 1 attacks gluten? Why person no 2 does not do it? What is the biological, chemical difference between these people? So no 1 had a mold exposure and? What changed biologically?
Is there any correlation between carnivore diet and gout?? 😢
To lower uric acid drink water. Search for Steak and Butter Girl interview and uric acid.
Gout is also related to oxalic acid fwiw.
I just assumed autoimmune issues were the body attacking things on itself that shouldn’t be there, like lectins, not it attacking itself. I didn’t realize that is not the way that most of the medical world looks at it. Of course they look at it the wrong way. Haha. Anatomy brains vs Physiology brains.
Okay so what about the hormesis dose-response phenomenon in toxicology which also applies to plant foods. While the toxic compounds can pose risks at high levels, they offer health benefits when consumed in small quantities due to the body’s ability to adapt and respond positively to low doses. So, while it might seem counterintuitive, incorporating small amounts of certain plant foods containing natural toxins could be beneficial due to the hormetic affect. So doesn't this highlight the need for a nuanced approach to nutrition that considers both the potential risks and benefits of plants? The dose makes the poison.
What's the dose, then? About three leaves, maybe a third of a root?
@@BlitzerkidSix For some people, yes. For others it's a plain baked potato with their steak once in a while. Whatever amount doesn't give you symptoms is your dose... just like any other poison. Now, if your metabolism is so damaged that you can't handle any dose ever, then obviously your dose is zero. But most people's dose isn't zero.
It is like medicine, Why take it when you have no condition? This is the same thing. A potato with meat will trigger the Randle cycle. There is no required amount of poison.

Why doesn't autoimmune hepatitis improve?
💖💖💪
Very interesting theory. You should run that by a smart immunologist though and hear their take.
Eat for your body type
Nobody got fat and sick from eating vegetables and fruit with their meat. We got fat and sick from being gluttons and stuffing our faces with pizza, beer, french fries, chips, Big Macs, soft drinks, cakes, cookies, ice cream, donuts, etc ALONG WITH the meat, vegetables, and fruit. A plain baked potato, for example, is a completely different food than french fries and potato chips fried in seed oil.
Fwiw, even though fries may have seed oils, the potato is a nightshade which can cause inflammation. I think stress can also cause leaky gut, which can be from SO many sources.
@@DeeElle2 And yet there are people who go on a potato-only diet (one guy did it for a full year) and lose weight and reverse all their chronic health conditions. So while SOME people can't tolerate nightshades, doesn't mean everyone should avoid nightshades.
@@WordsBloom Yes of course. We're all different. It has to do with the microbiome and lifestyle.
Ditch the hat that you all have,looks sheep like!
Sheep don't wear hats.😂
