Not only am I learning, being inspired, taking mental notes, I don't even mind how long this interview is. I find that I used to speed up podcasts or videos to get all my lists done but you cannot speed this important video up. So brilliant and very thankful for the questions and answers in the interview! I also love that he is apologizing when he himself wasn't healthy and now making it right by his weekly videos, seminars, coaching, and continued research on the "PHD". I love hearing all the great results!
Thanks for the “like” reminder. I run my own arborist channel and I literally forget to like videos that I like 😃 I am 10 months ketogenic. At 59 and a climbing arborist, I have gained 20 years of youth in functional ability. That is very meaningful as an industrial athlete. Dr. Barry is one of my favorites. He is so practical and common sense based. I will eventually listen to all four hours . Sometimes you just have to post the whole thing. Sure does make editing easier 😃
Dr Chaffe! And just to comment on the last 15 minutes .... No, not every ancestor of everyone drank blood. If Dr Berry was a devoted Christian, he would realize that God forbid the consumption of blood in the Bible... So sure, maybe 'some' cultures that did not follow The Word of God may have consumed blood, but those of us from the lineage of Abraham most assuredly did not. And will not, at least to our knowledge, ever do so with any intent. It's interesting he did point out people were taught it is a sin... So not sure why he doesnt connect that those teachings were passed down just as long as we have been eating meat... Bc the command to not consume the blood was given from the beginning of eating meat.... But I dont think he is a Christian considering the billions of years comments etc. It's ok, I still appreciate Dr Berry greatly.... Just not at all on the same page with everything. Thanks for doing this interview! It was great otherwise!
this is pieced together from various other videos of Dr Ken Berry's. are you stealing videos from other people and breaking them up to make it look like you're interviewing them? loser
Really enjoyed this episode! I told all my doctors how much fatigue I was having. Only one of them, my OB-Gyn offered to check my testosterone level. She told me on the return visit that my level was so low, it was undetectable. She prescribed a conjugated cream supplement and I felt much better within two weeks. It's not just a male thing-- low T makes women feel crappy too!
At 800 lbs I had given up on life. I found Dr Berry’s carnivore videos and thought to myself continue what I’m doing and die, or eat meat and have a heart attack. The second option seemed quicker, so took that not expecting to lose any weight or get my life back. 500 lbs lost, I am no longer house bound, I am driving again and living my life. At 52 years old, I look and feel better than I did in my 20s. I can’t thank Dr Berry enough for all he does in the community. He truly saved my life. Xx
I felt the same way. I would have rather died than continue feeling the way I felt. So a diet that, based on everything I knew about meat from the powers that be, would kill me, didn’t seem any different than where I was already heading. And I knew I’d tried everything else without feeling better. I think that mindset (as horrible as it sounds) was what kept me going through the first few months of carnivore when my body was going crazy and doing lots of weird (and sometimes scary) things.
I am ketovore as I drink coffee with heavy cream in my coffee, eat some cheese, and full fat Greek yogurt with a few drops of organic stevia. People are shocked that I don't eat bread. I eat chaffles for my first meal of the day: equal parts egg and mozzarella cheese with a spoonful of coconut flour in a mini waffle maker. Top it with butter and it is better than any bread to me. Fresh, hot, and no insulin spike. My 30 year history of fibromyalgia, bladder pain, depression, and chronic anemia are gone. 61 years old and no pain is awesome!
I started on keto but found out I can't do cream. I really think it might be the stuff that's put into it to put on shelf. I'm going to try real cream soon to see what happens
I only drink water Daily Cod liver oil Eat the same meal twice a day. 450 gram ground beef 3 eggs scrambled into the beef + butter + parmesan. Once or twice week I eat 200-300 grams of beef liver. Salmon once a week.
@@stormysocks I would love to find pure cream. I would have to buy a gallon of raw milk and figure out how to just use the dream top. Aldi's brand only has gellan gum and I seem to tolerate that ok
I don't even tell people that I don't drink coffee or tea or milk because everyone gets surprised too...imagine if they know I only eat meat lol, my first meal of the day is a fatty steak.
Thank you! I feel like we are getting a free class. I'm grateful these people are so generous with their time and knowledge. So strange people are complaining about a long, free TH-cam video. You can watch it in segments, you can pause it, you can move on. Maybe your positivity will improve by eating feel-good fats on the diet Dr. Berry is educating us on.
I absolutely love long-form content, especially when it provides great information and/or value, I mean it's free, people spent time, and they want to help us.
The thing with this is Dr he is living and practicing what he is teaching us. You can see the change he has made in his life. He is saying the proven facts. I had two centenarians on my mother side. They didn't really eat vege but loved meats. They had no weight issues and remained the same sizes, even after giving birth to over 10 kids each.
I was a vegetarian for 10 years, became obese and prediabetic and had tons of inflammations over the years. Now I have been on Keto/Carnivore for 1 year and 3 months and there is no way back. Lost 25 kg and reversed prediabetes, reflux and lots of other health issues. Also, I couldn't imagine how much better ketosis is, especially for the brain. It's crazy. Thanks Dr Berry, love it when something works.
Thanks for sharing. I was never vegetarian but following diet advice from different drs and dieticians I keep getting fatter and sicker. Was losing weight on keto before dietician talked me out of it. Lol. Now I know, just have to get back to being smart and do phd
@@ekelgedekelIt's almost completely gone. Before changing the diet I suffered from severe reflux about 5 or 6 times a year. Since I switched to Keto/Carnivore in December 2022 I only had one reflux, which I had in January 2024. But this one reflux was the result of a coughing attack that I got due to exhaustion and excessive running.
I'm 50 days into it...... And I am beginning to understand what you're saying. After at least 35 years of uncontrolled binge eating even when my stomach hurts from being too full... It almost seems like I'm in a beautiful dream, where cravings do not exist. ...and I'm down 20 lbs, (so far) while eating till I'm "Comfortably Stuffed" every day.
Be aware, there are naysayers who troll these videos, just to (covertly) convince y'all, there's no point in doing this elimination diet, for a decent trial period. Go with whom YOU trust. Not everyone is truthful, nor are their motives pure.That knowledge should be "Humanity 101"
@@janiemiller825 I eat mostly various beef cuts, & the fat on them that's edible, (which I never did before) eggs, real butter, bacon, avocados to increase good fat. but I also eat chicken, chicken wings, tuna, salmon. with spices but no sweeteners, at all . I drink some coffee, in the morning, lots of filtered water, some water with fresh squeezed lemon, apple cider vinegar, 1/8 tsp. salt. I did buy a quart of heavy whipping cream, for my coffee, but I generally put 2-3 cinnamon sticks in my coffee, instead & it sweetens it up...without triggering cravings. For the first time since I can remember, I feel like the real me, has taken back control of my body and my mind.....and that they're both VERY happy, and thankful about it.
I have to post this here as I truly feel it is linked to the massive amount of humans that are very deficient in iodine! I agree that natural iodine is depleted from our soils, but I firmly believe that this push of humans consume large quantities of cruciferous veggies is really harming human health and has drastically caused this excessive high rate of iodine deficiencies! Everyone is told eat lots of cruciferous veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, asparagus, brussel sprouts to name common ones- but google cruciferous veggies as there are at least 30 of them), but cruciferous veggies block the absorption of natural iodine found in foods! Everyone is told cruciferous veggies prevent cancer, but that is NOT true! Every time I ask people who have any form of cancer, fibrocystic breast masses, polyps on their gender internal organs, cysts on their internal gender organs, PCOS, hormones issues, nodules on thyroids, I ask them, “do you eat cruciferous veggies” and they all say “YES!” I have done this so many times in comment sections with carnivore interviews and they all say yes! Cruciferous veggies should be banned or have a large warning label on them that they damage the thyroid, cause cancer, and all the other issues listed above! Before I switched to carnivore, I ate broccoli daily for 6 years with half a chicken skinless breast, and a little of whole wheat noodles. In those 6 years I had a build up of fibrocystic masses in my chest. Then I started getting huge very painful cysts with one as large as 2” x 1”, and many smaller ones around 1”x1”. I became fed up with docs saying about breast cysts and fibrocystic breast masses , “it is normal,” “nothing you can do,” “we don’t know why it happens,” “diet does not cause it,” “it can turn into cancer,” “it is a disease that may not turn into cancer,” “you can’t reverse it,” “eat more plants,” “saturated fats makes it worse,”. ALL NOT true! I started researching on my own and found out fibrocystic breast masses swell and occur due to seeking for natural iodine in the body. All organs need it! Cruciferous veggies block absorption of iodine!! Saturated fats are VERY GOOD for the human body and helps heal all on carnivore diet and avoid plants! I jumped right into carnivore with zero plants and sure enough my fibrocystic masses started shrinking. I added a drop of Lugal’s iodine 2% or 5% to a glass of water at the start to help build up my iodine deficiency as well. I am now 1 year 6 months into carnivore and all my cysts have been gone, and I barely have any fibrocystic masses anymore. All shrank and almost all gone. Everyone that replies to me saying they had fibrocystic breast issues they all said they ate cruciferous veggies too because we are told to by docs!!! But the fact that people with any cancer also have been eating cruciferous veggies isn’t good and red flag that cruciferous veggies are causing all this due to blocking iodine! And broccoli alone has over 100 natural toxins in it alone, besides it blocking iodine! Avoid! Avoid all plants to be honest! Look up cruciferous veggies as there are at least 30 of them! Google it to see! Here is another thought, canola oils is hgihly processed yes, very bad- but also look that canola oil is made from rape seed and that is also a cruciferous veggie on Wikipedia’s list of cruciferous veggies, so it is ALSO harming the human body by blocking iodine too!! People needs to publish papers and books on how harmful cruciferous veggies can be and how this occurs, and shows how it is leading into this world wide iodine deficiency occurring! It’s not just because soils are depleted with iodine, it’s this mass eating of all the cruciferous veggies being pushed on humans with misinformation everywhere! Maybe Dr. Berry or Jessie will at some point, passing that idea to them! Stay away from cruciferous veggies! Docs, please stop telling people they are good for us! That’s my rant on that topic! Say “no” to cruciferous veggies! Go carnivore! I am carnivore for life! Anyone that has eating cruciferous veggies and have health issues please leave a post here!! Let us know your story!
JennifertxCarnivore. I love what you are saying here! I believe this is 100% truth. Do you have a you tube channel or FB page I could follow to learn more. I believe you are on to something!!
I had both fibrocystic breasts and uterine fibroids. I wish I had known I was iodine deficient before I had a hysterectomy. I learned from Nutrition with Judy that the iodine in salt isn't stable and gasses out. I also use a drop of 2% Lugol's a few days a week. I also add a drop to the water my dogs and chickens drink.
Dont worry about the naysayers Jesse. Ill take as many hours of Dr. Ken Berry as I can get!! His advice is always on point and full of knowledge! He truly wants help people. Thank you for this! Looking forward to many more.
They gotta push all that lab meat bill gates is producing. There is no way to know. People cannot afford grass fed grass finished beef or wild fish. The meat has hormones dyes antibiotics.
This should be everyone's motto. Our boomer parents lied to us about everything. Not maliciously so, but their life advice was more often than not either utterly useless or outright counterproductive. They were wrong about education, finances, housing market, relationships, nutrition, and god knows what else. It's not our fault that we listened, but it IS our responsibility to set ourselves straight.
@@SylvineAnd their parents, the WWII and depression era generation, were right about relationships, mostly right about nutrition, didnt understand finance nor the housing market, but generally right about the rest.
The boomers’ parents, who are considered the greatest generation, suffered the same frailties of human nature as everyone. They were propagandized by the U.S.govt., by corporations( marketing campaigns)& by media organizations. Newer understanding has allowed some of us to recognize that our govt. & large corporations don’t have the citizens’(quickly becoming extinct middle class)best interest, in mind. Human nature hasn’t changed one iota , except maybe genetic engineering, by extraterrestrials, may eventually benefit our human species. I am a cynic. I believe they have their own agenda.
I love all the carnivore doctors but the way Dr Berry talks is us and explains, wow I could learn anything from him. No wonder he helps so many, he’s so relatable.
Love Dr. Berry !!! It's occurred to me while listening that there isn't a shortage of health practitioners. If every doctor practices like this, we'll be healthy and Not clogging up the broken system of sick care. Doctors and nurses would have better lives, and so will their patients
Broken nurse here, currently unhealthy enough I've been deemed disabled. I agree, my specialists have been against fasting and keto. I'm tired of em throwing pills and shots at me, it doesn't feel right. When I choose to not take something they get huffy...needless to say I'm looking for different providers and having a heart to heart with my primary(who does listen and wants to help) this week. I plan to challenge her a lil and asking for her support.(I only have one person in my life that I talk to on the regular)
To Nikkijack: I sympathize with your lonely situation. I like what Drs. Berry & Chaffee have said about nutrition, & I like their personalities, as well. But I caution all sincere persons who are curious & not lazy about learning how to improve their health, to be skeptical & not put so-called experts on a pedestal. Examples are Dr. Fauci, the CEO of Monsanto…who portrayed themselves as avuncular individuals, but in actuality, professed genocidal policies. President Obama can be added to these examples.
@howardstewart2549 I'm dealing with the damage that following main stream advice has done, so now I have more time to look at data and learn more about molecular biology and can nourish not only my body but my mind as well, coming from healthcare background, like Dr Berry, I thought my patients weren't following the advice we were giving, having followed it myself to the letter and having worsening symptoms, I am looking past the main stream advice and paying more attention to who funded which studies.
@howardstewart2549 p.s....f@#/ fauci and Monsanto and all those getting kickbacks off poisoning ppl...this coming from someone who was raised at 2 gvt superfund sites growing up. I'm fortunate to be alive, as many of my childhood friends are not, & both of my folks died young of health complications(all of their older siblings and most of their aunts and uncles are still alive). Part of why I'm against forcing EVs. The tech isn't there yet, we have to figure out how to contain the toxins, I've seen lives destroyed by toxic environment and there should be serious repercussions for these crimes against nature and humanity instead of this push for incarcerating ppl for hate speech n such. Sorry for the rant, definitely appreciate what you said
@@nikkijack911 I wish you good health, prosperity, & happiness! Thanks for responding. Remember, despite all favorable appearances, when it comes to health care, especially, do your darned best to verify for yourself the verity of the info provided to you by others. Get a 2nd professional opinion, if the matter you deem, is serious enough.
Dr Berry, you saved my life back in 2020 when I discovered your channel during the " lockdowns" and discovered keto. I've been doing it ever since but recently I noticed my body got used to it and some of the benefits from keto stopped or even disappeared. I can't remember when you converted to carnivore diet , must have been a year or two ago - but I must tell you : I can see the benefits on you! You've never looked better, your skin cleared, your body shape is very fit , you just look 10 years younger than 2-3 years ago. Just by looking at you today I have decided it's time, time to go from keto to carnivore , thank you🙏🏻
I so hate that I didn’t know all this about the proper human diet when I was in my 20’s..I’m now 77 years old and have been BBBE diet for 6 months.. lost 24 lbs and feel amazing! My fibromyalgia is nearly non existent.. thank you Dr Berry..💕
I jumped in both feet when I found out about ketovore / carnivore diet. Been 6 months and still going... I have zero regrets. My overall health has drastically improved, energy, brain fog gone, attitude... that's gotten alot better and weight loss. I didn't start this to lose weight but it's a nice benefit to the process. :)
I'm on my 4th Medicare primary care Dr because none of the Drs seem like they are listening to me .... Dr Berry with his videos, books and mostly carnivore diet have helped me more
I love how you just jump straight into the interview with no preamble, really appreciate how you value your viewers’ time. Ken Berry is a legend! Great long-form interview with so much information 😎
Carnivore class 101102 and even 103. Dr. Barry really means it when he says he is just wanting to help people. I will be sharing this one far and wide. Thank you Jesse and Dr. Barry❤
Man oh man. So true about the acid reflux. I'm ketovore trying to switch over to carnivore. My reflux is 100% gone. So, every time I think about eating carbs, I recall how bad my reflux was. For me, the reflux is a blessing in disguise. Everytime I want some Fritos😂, I remember how bad it was.
I quit caffeine 4 weeks ago after 54 years. I don't miss it. Just drinking my purified drinking water about 100 ounces a day. I sleep better 9 to 10 hours a day and my coffee/heavy cream heartburn is gone.
No magic in following a proper human diet. I have got to Carnivore too! Love that days without temptations and feeling good are the norm! My Dexa scan also improved! And I was a fairly good vegan for 25 years. Dexa scans are not expected to improve in your late 70’s! The miracle was how quickly Dr Ken can change shirts back and forth so fast!! 😂❤. Great interview, guys!! 😊💪💕
My sister is having a difficult time sorting through what diet is right for her. I sent this interview as it's full of good information from our ancestors, vegetables, their origins as tiny, the food industry origin, and lots of stats about the carnivore diet. So many are steadfast in their diets. This is due to generations of conditioning from the processed foods system of things, so I can see why it's difficult. Thanks Jesse❤
Awesome video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I do 18:6 probably more ketovore like Neisha. The biggest problem I have is people constantly on at me ! You’re too thin, you don’t eat enough, you’re too extreme cutting out carbs ! It’s so annoying 😡 I just say “ you do you and I’ll do me “ lol x
Many of us believe gluttony is wrong, as do I....yet i was a glutton for 35 years. Some of us tend to think our problem is spiritual... "Gluttony & Sloth. Robert Lustig "sugar the bitter truth" proves it may well (NOT) be a spiritual problem....at all I now believe He's right. "Its not your fault, but it is your problem"...and there IS an answer.
Many Thanks to Ken Berry for helping me get my life and health back … My N of 1 During the extreme lockdown here in the Philippines, January 2021 I was obese type 2, 94Kg/207lbs, (I’m only 5’6”) with pre-diabetes and high blood pressure. I was suffering from metabolic syndrome. I understood the comorbidity I had as a 57 year old would greatly affect me if I contracted the Rona. I had to lose fat, reverse hypertension, reverse my NAFLD and reduce my HbA1c. Sitting in my armchair at the beginning of lockdown I saw that the keto/ketovore/carnivore diet claimed it could ‘cure’ my ailments. I watched a bunch of videos and tried to understand the linked papers supporting the claims. End result was that it simply made a lot of sense to me. After procrastinating for a couple of weeks I saw a video by Ken D Berry, MD where he said ‘Just do it’! … so I did 🤓 8 months later, whilst still sitting in my armchair (most of the time). I had lost the 30kg/66lbs of fat that was required to get me down to a ‘normal’ BMI, I GREATLY improved my blood pressure to the point it raised my wife’s eyebrows, she’s a First Responder. My blood sugar was well back in to the ‘normal’ range and I vastly reduced inflammation. I also reversed IBS that had controlled my life for 40 years (I lost jobs because of it), got rid of decades long debilitating heartburn, my Testosterone went up drastically and I stopped snoring … my wife is happy 🤓 I was ‘foggy’ & forgetful, I sometimes also slurred my words and forgot what I was talking about mid sentence, possible early stage MCI ? This has completely reversed! Undiagnosed but recognised by my family I got out of a bad case of lockdown depression. A year ago I further decided to cut out most vegetables from my meat heavy Keto WOE, only adding on occasion a little onion, garlic, green peppers, tomato and a pickle here and there for some flavour… always salting to taste. Improvements are continuing with a pace with better mental health, blood markers, skin conditions (skin tags have also disappeared) etc. Most recently I have noticed pain improving in my back associated with osteoporosis in my lower spine. I don’t sweat like I did earlier in life, slimmer or overweight. Also I am using old prescription glasses as I can see through them better, eye floaters are disappearing… possible eyesight improvements? I don’t go lobster red peel and go back to pale white after being in the Sun anymore … I hold a slight tan. Spider veins are clearing up on my outer thighs. Simply eating nutrient dense meat, HEAVY in animal fat, eggs, seafood, salmon … single ingredient real food is all it took … Whilst cutting out processed food, sugar/carbohydrates and seed/‘vegetable’ oils and most dairy. We THRIVE when eating our evolved, species specific Proper Human Diet along with some intermittent fasting to mimic the way our ancestors survived. I’m sure there are thousands upon thousands of people that have similar anecdotal stories to tell … Please tell them … get the message out there!
Thanks for sharing yours!!! My hubby and I are 9 months in feeling great no heartburn lost 23 lbs that wouldn’t budge for years. Sleep well very energized.im 65 Hubby no psoriasis or joint pain 71
For me liver beef or pork. Relatively well done. Dependently on the day preference, Fried in butter, tallow or Olive oil. As an example. Yesterday it was a fair mix of tallow and olive oil, with a touch of salt and garlic. So tasty. :-)
I cook my beef/calves liver semi-frozen in bacon grease. Just heat up the bacon fat and slip the liver into the pan, after a few minutes, flip it and cook for a few more minutes. It comes out medium-rare, tender and delicious.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! My son and I have truly benefitted from your dietary information along with the scientists and doctors you consult with.😊❤
I forgot to tell you I quit coffee for all of last year. I just started drinking bulletproof, the Maxizer one with Slippery Elm. Just 1 cup a day is all I need. It's been 1 month and I love my good clean coffee!!!! No more gut problems so far.
Doc Berry has helped me go from old at 75 to strong and up 11 lbs at 76. Yup carnivore helps us gain weight too. I'm 7 months carnivore and strength has grown obviously as I toss the 50lb grain bags around like I did in my 40s. We too raise sheep and chickens here on our farm in NE TN in the mountains. I'm getting so much more done now as we build our homestead. Heating with wood is such a great year round exercise. Right Doc? I'll be dancing at 108 as well 💪😁👌
@@amitloutube carnivores don't count calories. We eat all we want. I have 6 to 10 of our own eggs and a pan full of bacon and real sharp cheddar for breakfast and a pound of steak or burger or salmon for dinner. Dairy in the form of real whole fat yogurt, butter and aged sharp cheddar.
22 minutes in and I’m enjoying this interview soo much! Thank you for this unedited version of pure gold. I consider Dr. Ken Berry the ‘Gold Standard’ of all things Carnivore. What a blessing this interview is. Can’t wait to share this with others! (New sub!)
1:30 ish I love he gives the way most feel when the withdrawal from carbs sugar etc. You can cut carbs and sugar slowing cut the carbs slow each week. I had it 1 full month of fatigue. I didn’t do it slow kept watching video to keep going. I’m so glad I pushed we are 9 months in
Dr. Anthony Chaffee literally saved my life half a year ago by spreading the truth. I was then binge watching him, Dr. Ken Berry and Dr. Eric Westman for weeks for support. Now I am regaining my health and returning to life again. Finally!
Gosh, all the food Dr. Berry eats are the best for me too. My supplement is 1 ounce of raw grass fed liver a day. No caffeine for 40 years. I’m 69 and look 20 years younger if I do say so myself.
I’m very happy and strong on grassfed ruminants, caviar, oysters, cod liver, salt, grapefruit, water and occasionally matcha after a large brunch. My labs aren’t just within range but optimal. This is actually easy for me bc everyone knows exactly what to keep stocked and make for me. I don’t go to the gym or run but I’m constantly in motion doing things and multi tasking. I party hard every once in a while and it’s not a problem.
Thank you! This must have taken a lot of time and effort to produce. It is brilliant and much appreciated. Thorough, very informative & helpful. Greetings from UK
Dr. Berry your words ring so loud and true. They have had such a deeply impactful, profound and meaningful influence on my life. Thank you so much for teaching me.
At 72yrs l have had so many different diets over the years. I gave up sugar 15yrs ago and felt great. 10yrs ago l gave up carbs feel even better. I started keto 1 year ago feel better again & got rid of my sinuses permanently, 1st time in decades. More Carnivor l started 6 months ago and my energy levels are off the scale & can work for hours. The only issue is constipation because l eat native wild meat (kangeroo) which has no fat so l now cook in gee and eat butter and eat green vegs or swig coconut MCL if chronicly constipated. Just need to tune my intake with fat l believe. I am not happy eating cows or chicken as l have to rely on humans to feed nutrient rich grass. I know the mineral content of wild meat & fish is a must. All the people l care about have passed with a different chronic disease or fatal medical drugs.
I am 65 yrs old this December have been researching and listening to y’all for two weeks. I became sick and tired of being sick and tired. Lost much of my wt 3 different times through gym, ‘balanced’ meals, protein shakes….only to put the wt back on.
Thankyou . Food for fuel . Julia child had the best diet . She ate at least a pound of butter a week . Food was real back then , she warned against packaged food .
I also eat a pound of butter a week. Kerry gold grass fed butter. Been pretty strict carnivore for 3 years. Never felt better. I'm 76 years old. Keep a stable weight, walk a mile every day. Lost 45 pounds and kept it off. On no meds . THIS WAY OF EATING GETS RID OF INFLAMATION. Witch is the cause of every disease. Please try it and see your own transformation !
I did a four week water fast and when I started eating I did not start with coffee again. The whole fasting process reset my food addictions. They just left me obviously for good. I don't feel for any of the other bad foods like bread and potato chips. The only foods I am eating now are mainly meats, lots of raw meats, eggs, I have always loved liver, butter, self made sauerkraut, ACV, onions and arugula. Once in a while I love the juice of a grapefruit or lemon.. And this is all that my body wants now.
@@ellajayleenbryan9636 once you are beyond your first three days its getting easy. I have done it more than once so my ego shuts up quickly. I did it prolonged because I had to amp up autophagy in order to heal some issues.
@@Rosatachyondid your health issues all heal? If you don't mind, what were the issues? I am trying to heal some issues by eating carnivore for the past 22 months and have healed many issues except for a couple of stubborn issues.
😱You didn't eat any food at all for 4 weeks OR you Intermittent Fasted everyday for 4 weeks? I have never known anyone to totally fast for more than 4-5 days.
Jesse I agree with some of what you said..regarding about the "age/activity level when someone starts their journey. It does matter, but what I can tell you that once someone gets rolling with a proper human diet, their mental state about the whole activity level will greatly improve, and they will find they can and will engage in some level of activity. While personally... I'm about ready to start competing at 66, I dont expect most people will go that extreme.. but I can tell you that mentally and physcially.. going carnivore..will be life changing. I know the carnivore diet super jazzed me up. I do high intensity training road cycling- sprints/weight-resistance training.
I used to be in love with chocolate and all the sugary pastry, whatever carbs that was, the first time I went to a supermarket after deciding to be on a carnivore diet, I felt so bad not being able to eat literally anything that is on a shelf. But now I don't care, it feels so good to eat real food. Actually, I feel happier now, other foods don't mean nothing to me now. I fully enjoy my unsalted butter from time to time, it is like my nowadays ice cream.😂😂. To be honest , I have lost so much weight, having a few bites of butter for breakfast with my coffee or every time i feel hungry and eating my meal around 5pm, actually I don't even feel hunger anymore. I hope carnivore diet is a diet with no consequences because I would love to be on this diet forever ❤❤. By the way , butter helps with hunger while fasting and doesn't elevate blood glucose.
Hi Dr. Berry Firstly, I want to express my gratitude for your insightful videos. I am a 37-year-old Indian man, 6 feet tall, currently on day 17 of the carnivore diet. I started at 101 kg and have lost 3 kg, but more significantly, I have noticed a substantial reduction in inches around my waist. I feel better than ever. Initially, I focused on lamb, eggs, and animal fats, but recently, I have developed a newfound appreciation for ribeye steak. Despite my initial concerns about decreased gym performance due to the absence of carbs, I have experienced the opposite. I no longer feel fatigued and have achieved personal records in my lifts, including deadlifts, bench presses, and shoulder presses. I am pleasantly surprised by these results and am now considering extending my carnivore diet from 30 days to possibly 90 days. Thank you.
Thank you very much to both of you gentlemen for taking the time and energy to share with us this wealth of information. Im grateful that there are people like you who care enough for others to tell the truth.
1:35:56 Starting my 11 month in doing carnivore. Not perfect. Retired 2 years from emergency nursing. 256lbs tired depressed unhappy. Now 179lbs, little exercise but some, feeling much better, depression lifted, happy wow!! Looking good, labito crazy improved, walk 3 to 5 miles per day. In a carbohydrate home spouse not on board whom is a diabetic on insulin, ozempic and blood pressure meds and a couple of more to pee out sugar. However I have noticed they cut down on their carb consumption watching me, one of their blood pressure pills with their doctor had to be reduced. With ozempic they have lost weight but unfortunately some muscle loss. I don't practice nursing at home, as an argument will come to be. My third relationship and have learned to shut my mouth, lead by example. lost my partner 9 years ago this month after a 30 year short relationship massive coronary event. I am off most of my meds one two med for prostate issues. Off my prevacid for gastric reflux, off blood pressure pills, off antidepressants. All my aches and pain gone. However, just off a boat cruise, went off carnivore i could of done it lots of food choices on the ship to have done so. I had many sugary alcoholic beverages, eat many desserts, oh my goodness lots of bread, gained 5lbs in the 7 days on board. 90 percent of the people on board were overweight male, female, children young teens early to late 20's were either pudgy, fat, and many morbidly obese. Got home back to carnivore lifestyle don't like to say diet. Thought I had COVID tested twice thankfully negative so perhaps the flu, then ding dong sugar withdrawal, day 4 home feeling better each day, all my joints ached what hair I have left hurt, my back pain crazy uncomfortable. Sugar=inflammation good experience great reinforcement no regrets
Talking about seasoned fruit. Years ago while working as expatriate in Africa. For a couple of weeks, I was checking, double checking and triple checking! A fantastically looking mango. Hanging up on a tree on our camp. Long story short. The day before cropping that amazing, ripped and sweet mango! I start planing all the action on my head... Drive the 4x4 under the tree. Get on the roof of the vehicle and finish by having it for desert. Come the day and respective lunch time. Drive to location, stop the 4x4 under the tree. Get out, look up... To find out someone took it before me! LOL :-)
Brilliant interview. One comment; our ancestors in the rift valley had very consistent days. Sun up 6am sun down 6pm. They are on the Equator. In Swahili the word for 7am is one hour after sun up. Much easier to have consistent circadian rhythm.
Very well done gents. I watched the entire almost 4 hours. Excellent insight mixed with so much common sense and sound knowledge. Love your approach Dr. Berry. Keep up the good work for what is so far the silent minority. Greater achievements to follow.
I am a retired family physician. I live for decades on adrenaline and cortisol to perform in the face of long hours and stressful decisions, Sugar was one more path to performance in the face of fatigue. I found that giving up the sugar was much easier than giving up adrenaline, but think cutting back adrenaline was better for my health and relationships. What if anything do you do to control cortisol and adrenaline?
Just a suggestion: look into retraining the mind. Mary Ruddick is a proponent and there are others. Diet is crucial but so are other parts of lifestyle. Getting your body to be in the parasympathetic state rather than the sympathetic state can be controlled by the mind. I am not schooled in this area and am just beginning to scratch the surface. You need to tap into the relaxed body and mind state. All the best to you.
My second time of listening to this fabulous talk. Dr Berry conveys his message so clearly, with not too much fancy-pants science speak. Thank you again
I had severe nightly reflux issues for years! Started carnivore aug.1.23. In the last 7 months I experienced reflux only one night. And that was the only time I ate a single slice of a big tomato in my 'carniburger'. I love(d) tomatoes! 😂
By reflux I mean the condition when the contents of the stomach suddenly flow up into the esophagus and even into the oral cavity. By far, this happened to me most often while sleeping on my right side. It is significantly better when sleeping on the left side.
2:02:42 - I live in tropical Mexico, and the sour oranges, guavas, and avocados ABSOLUTELY have a season here. The guavas appear during September and October, then they're gone. 💯
My acid reflux or gerd was 99% because of caffeine. Caffeine has been shown in mice to loosen the sphincter of the stomach. Its measurable. Switched to decaf, GERD is 99% gone.
Thanks for watching this episode with Dr. Ken Berry! If you're finding it valuable, please vote by hitting the LIKE button on the video. This lets me know what type of guests to book for upcoming shows. Thanks! -Jesse 💙
Not only am I learning, being inspired, taking mental notes, I don't even mind how long this interview is. I find that I used to speed up podcasts or videos to get all my lists done but you cannot speed this important video up. So brilliant and very thankful for the questions and answers in the interview! I also love that he is apologizing when he himself wasn't healthy and now making it right by his weekly videos, seminars, coaching, and continued research on the "PHD". I love hearing all the great results!
Thanks for the “like” reminder. I run my own arborist channel and I literally forget to like videos that I like 😃 I am 10 months ketogenic. At 59 and a climbing arborist, I have gained 20 years of youth in functional ability. That is very meaningful as an industrial athlete. Dr. Barry is one of my favorites. He is so practical and common sense based. I will eventually listen to all four hours . Sometimes you just have to post the whole thing. Sure does make editing easier 😃
Dr Chaffe!
And just to comment on the last 15 minutes .... No, not every ancestor of everyone drank blood. If Dr Berry was a devoted Christian, he would realize that God forbid the consumption of blood in the Bible... So sure, maybe 'some' cultures that did not follow The Word of God may have consumed blood, but those of us from the lineage of Abraham most assuredly did not. And will not, at least to our knowledge, ever do so with any intent. It's interesting he did point out people were taught it is a sin... So not sure why he doesnt connect that those teachings were passed down just as long as we have been eating meat... Bc the command to not consume the blood was given from the beginning of eating meat.... But I dont think he is a Christian considering the billions of years comments etc. It's ok, I still appreciate Dr Berry greatly.... Just not at all on the same page with everything. Thanks for doing this interview! It was great otherwise!
this is pieced together from various other videos of Dr Ken Berry's. are you stealing videos from other people and breaking them up to make it look like you're interviewing them? loser
Really enjoyed this episode! I told all my doctors how much fatigue I was having. Only one of them, my OB-Gyn offered to check my testosterone level. She told me on the return visit that my level was so low, it was undetectable. She prescribed a conjugated cream supplement and I felt much better within two weeks. It's not just a male thing-- low T makes women feel crappy too!
At 800 lbs I had given up on life. I found Dr Berry’s carnivore videos and thought to myself continue what I’m doing and die, or eat meat and have a heart attack. The second option seemed quicker, so took that not expecting to lose any weight or get my life back. 500 lbs lost, I am no longer house bound, I am driving again and living my life. At 52 years old, I look and feel better than I did in my 20s. I can’t thank Dr Berry enough for all he does in the community. He truly saved my life. Xx
Happy for you! 💙
Me too, being bedridden for a year. Thought why not follow the video and just die from heart attack. Now i can walk again without inflammation 😂
I felt the same way. I would have rather died than continue feeling the way I felt. So a diet that, based on everything I knew about meat from the powers that be, would kill me, didn’t seem any different than where I was already heading. And I knew I’d tried everything else without feeling better. I think that mindset (as horrible as it sounds) was what kept me going through the first few months of carnivore when my body was going crazy and doing lots of weird (and sometimes scary) things.
You are all amazing! Unstoppable!! ❤
Wow 500 pounds last that’s amazing!! Great job
I am ketovore as I drink coffee with heavy cream in my coffee, eat some cheese, and full fat Greek yogurt with a few drops of organic stevia. People are shocked that I don't eat bread. I eat chaffles for my first meal of the day: equal parts egg and mozzarella cheese with a spoonful of coconut flour in a mini waffle maker. Top it with butter and it is better than any bread to me. Fresh, hot, and no insulin spike. My 30 year history of fibromyalgia, bladder pain, depression, and chronic anemia are gone. 61 years old and no pain is awesome!
So happy for you. It’s like getting a new lease on life.
I started on keto but found out I can't do cream. I really think it might be the stuff that's put into it to put on shelf. I'm going to try real cream soon to see what happens
I only drink water
Daily Cod liver oil
Eat the same meal twice a day.
450 gram ground beef
3 eggs scrambled into the beef + butter + parmesan.
Once or twice week I eat 200-300 grams of beef liver.
Salmon once a week.
@@stormysocks I would love to find pure cream. I would have to buy a gallon of raw milk and figure out how to just use the dream top.
Aldi's brand only has gellan gum and I seem to tolerate that ok
I don't even tell people that I don't drink coffee or tea or milk because everyone gets surprised too...imagine if they know I only eat meat lol, my first meal of the day is a fatty steak.
Thank you! I feel like we are getting a free class. I'm grateful these people are so generous with their time and knowledge. So strange people are complaining about a long, free TH-cam video. You can watch it in segments, you can pause it, you can move on. Maybe your positivity will improve by eating feel-good fats on the diet Dr. Berry is educating us on.
100% Agree. Dr. Berry is a blessing!
😂 true
💯🙏🏻🫶
I absolutely love long-form content, especially when it provides great information and/or value, I mean it's free, people spent time, and they want to help us.
The thing with this is Dr he is living and practicing what he is teaching us. You can see the change he has made in his life. He is saying the proven facts. I had two centenarians on my mother side. They didn't really eat vege but loved meats. They had no weight issues and remained the same sizes, even after giving birth to over 10 kids each.
I was a vegetarian for 10 years, became obese and prediabetic and had tons of inflammations over the years. Now I have been on Keto/Carnivore for 1 year and 3 months and there is no way back. Lost 25 kg and reversed prediabetes, reflux and lots of other health issues. Also, I couldn't imagine how much better ketosis is, especially for the brain. It's crazy. Thanks Dr Berry, love it when something works.
Thanks for sharing. I was never vegetarian but following diet advice from different drs and dieticians I keep getting fatter and sicker. Was losing weight on keto before dietician talked me out of it. Lol. Now I know, just have to get back to being smart and do phd
how did your reflux change?
@@ekelgedekelIt's almost completely gone. Before changing the diet I suffered from severe reflux about 5 or 6 times a year. Since I switched to Keto/Carnivore in December 2022 I only had one reflux, which I had in January 2024. But this one reflux was the result of a coughing attack that I got due to exhaustion and excessive running.
@@nikkijack911 Better stay away from dietician hahaha
@@nikkijack911Everything a 'dietician' says, do the opposite.
So true about fasting: you don’t think about food when you are on carnivore; you develop a different relationship with food.
I'm 50 days into it......
And I am beginning to understand what you're saying.
After at least 35 years of uncontrolled binge eating even when my stomach hurts from being too full...
It almost seems like I'm in a beautiful dream, where cravings do not exist.
...and I'm down 20 lbs, (so far) while eating till I'm "Comfortably Stuffed" every day.
11 months carnivore here. I don't go two waking hours without thinking about food.
Be aware, there are naysayers who troll these videos, just to (covertly) convince y'all, there's no point in doing this elimination diet, for a decent trial period.
Go with whom YOU trust. Not everyone is truthful, nor are their motives pure.That knowledge should be "Humanity 101"

Are you just eating 🥩
Or coffee ☕️ with cream etc??
@@janiemiller825 I eat mostly various beef cuts, & the fat on them that's edible, (which I never did before) eggs, real butter, bacon, avocados to increase good fat.
but I also eat chicken, chicken wings, tuna, salmon. with spices but no sweeteners, at all .
I drink some coffee, in the morning, lots of filtered water, some water with fresh squeezed lemon, apple cider vinegar, 1/8 tsp. salt. I did buy a quart of heavy whipping cream, for my coffee, but I generally put 2-3 cinnamon sticks in my coffee, instead & it sweetens it up...without triggering cravings.
For the first time since I can remember, I feel like the real me, has taken back control of my body and my mind.....and that they're both VERY happy, and thankful about it.
Yay a 4 hr video, I was running out of carnivore videos to binge. This should hold me over
LOL
eheheh I get you. LOL 🙂
Same here. 😊
A 4h Ken Berry interview? This has gotta be good
🥩
It’s the same one
@@jessicab87he does kinda say the same ole thing.
Looks like pieced-together interviews from other channels...
What I am listening on my Friday night. 1 1/2hrs in so far.
I have to post this here as I truly feel it is linked to the massive amount of humans that are very deficient in iodine! I agree that natural iodine is depleted from our soils, but I firmly believe that this push of humans consume large quantities of cruciferous veggies is really harming human health and has drastically caused this excessive high rate of iodine deficiencies! Everyone is told eat lots of cruciferous veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, asparagus, brussel sprouts to name common ones- but google cruciferous veggies as there are at least 30 of them), but cruciferous veggies block the absorption of natural iodine found in foods! Everyone is told cruciferous veggies prevent cancer, but that is NOT true! Every time I ask people who have any form of cancer, fibrocystic breast masses, polyps on their gender internal organs, cysts on their internal gender organs, PCOS, hormones issues, nodules on thyroids, I ask them, “do you eat cruciferous veggies” and they all say “YES!” I have done this so many times in comment sections with carnivore interviews and they all say yes!
Cruciferous veggies should be banned or have a large warning label on them that they damage the thyroid, cause cancer, and all the other issues listed above!
Before I switched to carnivore, I ate broccoli daily for 6 years with half a chicken skinless breast, and a little of whole wheat noodles. In those 6 years I had a build up of fibrocystic masses in my chest. Then I started getting huge very painful cysts with one as large as 2” x 1”, and many smaller ones around 1”x1”. I became fed up with docs saying about breast cysts and fibrocystic breast masses , “it is normal,” “nothing you can do,” “we don’t know why it happens,” “diet does not cause it,” “it can turn into cancer,” “it is a disease that may not turn into cancer,” “you can’t reverse it,” “eat more plants,” “saturated fats makes it worse,”. ALL NOT true!
I started researching on my own and found out fibrocystic breast masses swell and occur due to seeking for natural iodine in the body. All organs need it! Cruciferous veggies block absorption of iodine!! Saturated fats are VERY GOOD for the human body and helps heal all on carnivore diet and avoid plants! I jumped right into carnivore with zero plants and sure enough my fibrocystic masses started shrinking. I added a drop of Lugal’s iodine 2% or 5% to a glass of water at the start to help build up my iodine deficiency as well.
I am now 1 year 6 months into carnivore and all my cysts have been gone, and I barely have any fibrocystic masses anymore. All shrank and almost all gone. Everyone that replies to me saying they had fibrocystic breast issues they all said they ate cruciferous veggies too because we are told to by docs!!! But the fact that people with any cancer also have been eating cruciferous veggies isn’t good and red flag that cruciferous veggies are causing all this due to blocking iodine!
And broccoli alone has over 100 natural toxins in it alone, besides it blocking iodine! Avoid! Avoid all plants to be honest!
Look up cruciferous veggies as there are at least 30 of them! Google it to see!
Here is another thought, canola oils is hgihly processed yes, very bad- but also look that canola oil is made from rape seed and that is also a cruciferous veggie on Wikipedia’s list of cruciferous veggies, so it is ALSO harming the human body by blocking iodine too!!
People needs to publish papers and books on how harmful cruciferous veggies can be and how this occurs, and shows how it is leading into this world wide iodine deficiency occurring! It’s not just because soils are depleted with iodine, it’s this mass eating of all the cruciferous veggies being pushed on humans with misinformation everywhere! Maybe Dr. Berry or Jessie will at some point, passing that idea to them!
Stay away from cruciferous veggies! Docs, please stop telling people they are good for us! That’s my rant on that topic! Say “no” to cruciferous veggies! Go carnivore! I am carnivore for life!
Anyone that has eating cruciferous veggies and have health issues please leave a post here!! Let us know your story!
JennifertxCarnivore. I love what you are saying here! I believe this is 100% truth. Do you have a you tube channel or FB page I could follow to learn more. I believe you are on to something!!
Good post. Thankyou for sharing your story with the people.
@@jaymehatfield9540you are welcome! ☺️
😳🫢
I had both fibrocystic breasts and uterine fibroids. I wish I had known I was iodine deficient before I had a hysterectomy.
I learned from Nutrition with Judy that the iodine in salt isn't stable and gasses out. I also use a drop of 2% Lugol's a few days a week. I also add a drop to the water my dogs and chickens drink.
DR Berry doesn't do alot of interviews. He is a legend thanks to him and Dr Chaffee these guys have changed my life and thousands others. 🙌
Dont worry about the naysayers Jesse. Ill take as many hours of Dr. Ken Berry as I can get!! His advice is always on point and full of knowledge! He truly wants help people. Thank you for this! Looking forward to many more.
"It's not your fault, but it IS your problem" Write that one in stone.
I'm already seeing that on T-Shirts! ;-)
💯 @@carlosipec2270
At 7minutes and 5seconds Dr. Berry is as honest as anyone could ever be. Please continue the journey Ken and be strong, best regards from Canada.
I respect that so much!!

They gotta push all that lab meat bill gates is producing. There is no way to know. People cannot afford grass fed grass finished beef or wild fish. The meat has hormones dyes antibiotics.
It's ok to say this worked for me but without many decades or being completely sure then maybe don't push it on people so hard.
You should look up the Dr. Chaffee/ Maggie white interview. She's an 82 year rancher, carnivore for nearly her whole life.
"It's not your fault, but it is your problem".
Yes!
This should be everyone's motto. Our boomer parents lied to us about everything. Not maliciously so, but their life advice was more often than not either utterly useless or outright counterproductive. They were wrong about education, finances, housing market, relationships, nutrition, and god knows what else. It's not our fault that we listened, but it IS our responsibility to set ourselves straight.
@@SylvineAnd their parents, the WWII and depression era generation, were right about relationships, mostly right about nutrition, didnt understand finance nor the housing market, but generally right about the rest.
The boomers’ parents, who are considered the greatest generation, suffered the same frailties of human nature as everyone. They were propagandized by the U.S.govt., by corporations( marketing campaigns)& by media organizations. Newer understanding has allowed some of us to recognize that our govt. & large corporations don’t have the citizens’(quickly becoming extinct middle class)best interest, in mind. Human nature hasn’t changed one iota , except maybe genetic engineering, by extraterrestrials, may eventually benefit our human species. I am a cynic. I believe they have their own agenda.
I love all the carnivore doctors but the way Dr Berry talks is us and explains, wow I could learn anything from him. No wonder he helps so many, he’s so relatable.
Carnivore over 2 years, best thing I ever did, forever grateful to Dr. Berry, Jason Fung, Anthony Chaffee and many more!
Love Dr. Berry !!! It's occurred to me while listening that there isn't a shortage of health practitioners. If every doctor practices like this, we'll be healthy and Not clogging up the broken system of sick care. Doctors and nurses would have better lives, and so will their patients
Broken nurse here, currently unhealthy enough I've been deemed disabled. I agree, my specialists have been against fasting and keto. I'm tired of em throwing pills and shots at me, it doesn't feel right. When I choose to not take something they get huffy...needless to say I'm looking for different providers and having a heart to heart with my primary(who does listen and wants to help) this week. I plan to challenge her a lil and asking for her support.(I only have one person in my life that I talk to on the regular)
To Nikkijack: I sympathize with your lonely situation. I like what Drs. Berry & Chaffee have said about nutrition, & I like their personalities, as well. But I caution all sincere persons who are curious & not lazy about learning how to improve their health, to be skeptical & not put so-called experts on a pedestal. Examples are Dr. Fauci, the CEO of Monsanto…who portrayed themselves as avuncular individuals, but in actuality, professed genocidal policies. President Obama can be added to these examples.
@howardstewart2549 I'm dealing with the damage that following main stream advice has done, so now I have more time to look at data and learn more about molecular biology and can nourish not only my body but my mind as well, coming from healthcare background, like Dr Berry, I thought my patients weren't following the advice we were giving, having followed it myself to the letter and having worsening symptoms, I am looking past the main stream advice and paying more attention to who funded which studies.
@howardstewart2549 p.s....f@#/ fauci and Monsanto and all those getting kickbacks off poisoning ppl...this coming from someone who was raised at 2 gvt superfund sites growing up. I'm fortunate to be alive, as many of my childhood friends are not, & both of my folks died young of health complications(all of their older siblings and most of their aunts and uncles are still alive). Part of why I'm against forcing EVs. The tech isn't there yet, we have to figure out how to contain the toxins, I've seen lives destroyed by toxic environment and there should be serious repercussions for these crimes against nature and humanity instead of this push for incarcerating ppl for hate speech n such. Sorry for the rant, definitely appreciate what you said
@@nikkijack911 I wish you good health, prosperity, & happiness! Thanks for responding. Remember, despite all favorable appearances, when it comes to health care, especially, do your darned best to verify for yourself the verity of the info provided to you by others. Get a 2nd professional opinion, if the matter you deem, is serious enough.
Dr Berry, you saved my life back in 2020 when I discovered your channel during the " lockdowns" and discovered keto. I've been doing it ever since but recently I noticed my body got used to it and some of the benefits from keto stopped or even disappeared. I can't remember when you converted to carnivore diet , must have been a year or two ago - but I must tell you : I can see the benefits on you! You've never looked better, your skin cleared, your body shape is very fit , you just look 10 years younger than 2-3 years ago. Just by looking at you today I have decided it's time, time to go from keto to carnivore , thank you🙏🏻
I so hate that I didn’t know all this about the proper human diet when I was in my 20’s..I’m now 77 years old and have been BBBE diet for 6 months.. lost 24 lbs and feel amazing! My fibromyalgia is nearly non existent.. thank you Dr Berry..💕
I stopped coffee and got constipated, so I added it back. Makes a big difference for me.
You likely need more fat.
I jumped in both feet when I found out about ketovore / carnivore diet. Been 6 months and still going... I have zero regrets. My overall health has drastically improved, energy, brain fog gone, attitude... that's gotten alot better and weight loss. I didn't start this to lose weight but it's a nice benefit to the process. :)
So many have been helped from big stuff. Love it
Same...I just want to feel better. Weightloss is bonus...I mean fat reduction 😊
I'm on my 4th Medicare primary care Dr because none of the Drs seem like they are listening to me .... Dr Berry with his videos, books and mostly carnivore diet have helped me more
I love how you just jump straight into the interview with no preamble, really appreciate how you value your viewers’ time. Ken Berry is a legend! Great long-form interview with so much information 😎
Carnivore class 101102 and even 103. Dr. Barry really means it when he says he is just wanting to help people. I will be sharing this one far and wide. Thank you Jesse and Dr. Barry❤
Jesse you are such a good interviewer, great job. Dr. Berry has been great in this Carnivore/keto WOE of eating.❤
Man oh man. So true about the acid reflux. I'm ketovore trying to switch over to carnivore. My reflux is 100% gone. So, every time I think about eating carbs, I recall how bad my reflux was. For me, the reflux is a blessing in disguise. Everytime I want some Fritos😂, I remember how bad it was.
I quit caffeine 4 weeks ago after 54 years. I don't miss it. Just drinking my purified drinking water about 100 ounces a day. I sleep better 9 to 10 hours a day and my coffee/heavy cream heartburn is gone.
Dr.Berry is truly amazing and has saved so many lives including mine. He is a special human.
this is the best one yet of him explaining everything...I will be sharing this
No magic in following a proper human diet. I have got to Carnivore too! Love that days without temptations and feeling good are the norm! My Dexa scan also improved! And I was a fairly good vegan for 25 years. Dexa scans are not expected to improve in your
late 70’s!
The miracle was how quickly Dr Ken can change shirts back and forth so fast!! 😂❤.
Great interview, guys!! 😊💪💕
I love these long interviews. The longer the better.
I have learned so much from Dr. Ken Berry. He and his wife are my favorite!!!
A masterclass in nutrition and knowledge. 10/10 every human being on this planet should be watching this and take notes.
My sister is having a difficult time sorting through what diet is right for her. I sent this interview as it's full of good information from our ancestors, vegetables, their origins as tiny, the food industry origin, and lots of stats about the carnivore diet. So many are steadfast in their diets. This is due to generations of conditioning from the processed foods system of things, so I can see why it's difficult. Thanks Jesse❤
Some think meat is an addiction. To see both sides check out Dr fuhrman

Awesome video 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I do 18:6 probably more ketovore like Neisha. The biggest problem I have is people constantly on at me ! You’re too thin, you don’t eat enough, you’re too extreme cutting out carbs ! It’s so annoying 😡 I just say “ you do you and I’ll do me “ lol x
Dr Berry is getting younger by the day ❤ amazing
Dr. Berry is world class.
Great job interviewing Dr Berry! This is the best interview with Dr Berry that I have seen!
Thanks so much 🙏🏻💙
Many of us believe gluttony is wrong, as do I....yet i was a glutton for 35 years.
Some of us tend to think our problem is spiritual... "Gluttony & Sloth.
Robert Lustig "sugar the bitter truth" proves it may well (NOT) be a spiritual problem....at all
I now believe He's right.
"Its not your fault, but it is your problem"...and there IS an answer.
Thank you so much for inviting Dr Berry!!! ❤ Thanks to his videos I became a carnivore almost 5 years ago. 🥩🧈🥓🥚
Always good to see people who have done this longer than a year! Yay!
Powerful testimony. I really needed to hear this. Thanks for sharing your journey.
1. EXCELLENT Carnivore Diet discussion! 👍
2. EVERYONE should archive & share this video! 🙏
Many Thanks to Ken Berry for helping me get my life and health back …
My N of 1
During the extreme lockdown here in the Philippines, January 2021 I was obese type 2, 94Kg/207lbs, (I’m only 5’6”) with pre-diabetes and high blood pressure. I was suffering from metabolic syndrome. I understood the comorbidity I had as a 57 year old would greatly affect me if I contracted the Rona. I had to lose fat, reverse hypertension, reverse my NAFLD and reduce my HbA1c.
Sitting in my armchair at the beginning of lockdown I saw that the keto/ketovore/carnivore diet claimed it could ‘cure’ my ailments. I watched a bunch of videos and tried to understand the linked papers supporting the claims. End result was that it simply made a lot of sense to me.
After procrastinating for a couple of weeks I saw a video by Ken D Berry, MD where he said ‘Just do it’! … so I did 🤓
8 months later, whilst still sitting in my armchair (most of the time). I had lost the 30kg/66lbs of fat that was required to get me down to a ‘normal’ BMI, I GREATLY improved my blood pressure to the point it raised my wife’s eyebrows, she’s a First Responder. My blood sugar was well back in to the ‘normal’ range and I vastly reduced inflammation.
I also reversed IBS that had controlled my life for 40 years (I lost jobs because of it), got rid of decades long debilitating heartburn, my Testosterone went up drastically and I stopped snoring … my wife is happy 🤓 I was ‘foggy’ & forgetful, I sometimes also slurred my words and forgot what I was talking about mid sentence, possible early stage MCI ? This has completely reversed! Undiagnosed but recognised by my family I got out of a bad case of lockdown depression.
A year ago I further decided to cut out most vegetables from my meat heavy Keto WOE, only adding on occasion a little onion, garlic, green peppers, tomato and a pickle here and there for some flavour… always salting to taste. Improvements are continuing with a pace with better mental health, blood markers, skin conditions (skin tags have also disappeared) etc.
Most recently I have noticed pain improving in my back associated with osteoporosis in my lower spine. I don’t sweat like I did earlier in life, slimmer or overweight. Also I am using old prescription glasses as I can see through them better, eye floaters are disappearing… possible eyesight improvements? I don’t go lobster red peel and go back to pale white after being in the Sun anymore … I hold a slight tan. Spider veins are clearing up on my outer thighs.
Simply eating nutrient dense meat, HEAVY in animal fat, eggs, seafood, salmon … single ingredient real food is all it took …
Whilst cutting out processed food, sugar/carbohydrates and seed/‘vegetable’ oils and most dairy.
We THRIVE when eating our evolved, species specific Proper Human Diet along with some intermittent fasting to mimic the way our ancestors survived.
I’m sure there are thousands upon thousands of people that have similar anecdotal stories to tell … Please tell them … get the message out there!

Thank you for taking the time to put out this video. Great content
Awesome Jesse
Thank you for bringing Dr Berry on.
I love Dr Ken Berry, lets goooo!
I'm not here to make a million dollars but to help a million people. ❤ Thank you ❤
6 kids already Dr Ken? Wowee, sending God’s blessings to all here🙏🏻
Beef liver trick - Gently cook it in butter of ghee til med/rare.
Beef liver doesn't even taste that bad. I just eat it straight up even without salt
For me liver beef or pork. Relatively well done. Dependently on the day preference, Fried in butter, tallow or Olive oil. As an example. Yesterday it was a fair mix of tallow and olive oil, with a touch of salt and garlic. So tasty. :-)
@@Conservative_carnivoresame, I crave it
I cook my beef/calves liver semi-frozen in bacon grease. Just heat up the bacon fat and slip the liver into the pan, after a few minutes, flip it and cook for a few more minutes. It comes out medium-rare, tender and delicious.
My butcher doesn't sell it as no one wants it so he turns it into dehydrated dog treats. It's human grade, so I share it with my dogs LOL!
I always enjoy Dr Berry’s interviews
Congratulations Jesse! You bagged the big one! Dr. Berry is a treasure.❤
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! My son and I have truly benefitted from your dietary information along with the scientists and doctors you consult with.😊❤
I forgot to tell you I quit coffee for all of last year. I just started drinking bulletproof, the Maxizer one with Slippery Elm. Just 1 cup a day is all I need. It's been 1 month and I love my good clean coffee!!!! No more gut problems so far.
44:23 I enjoy listening to Dr. Ken Berry. I’m learning so much.
Doc Berry has helped me go from old at 75 to strong and up 11 lbs at 76. Yup carnivore helps us gain weight too. I'm 7 months carnivore and strength has grown obviously as I toss the 50lb grain bags around like I did in my 40s. We too raise sheep and chickens here on our farm in NE TN in the mountains. I'm getting so much more done now as we build our homestead. Heating with wood is such a great year round exercise. Right Doc? I'll be dancing at 108 as well
💪😁👌
Great how many calories consumed daily
@@amitloutube carnivores don't count calories. We eat all we want. I have 6 to 10 of our own eggs and a pan full of bacon and real sharp cheddar for breakfast and a pound of steak or burger or salmon for dinner. Dairy in the form of real whole fat yogurt, butter and aged sharp cheddar.
He is so down to Earth ❤ I love His honesty and compassionate.
22 minutes in and I’m enjoying this interview soo much! Thank you for this unedited version of pure gold. I consider Dr. Ken Berry the ‘Gold Standard’ of all things Carnivore. What a blessing this interview is.
Can’t wait to share this with others! (New sub!)
I eat beef liver with a sprinkle of curry and garlic and onion powder.....So delicious !! Liver and hearts together.
1:30 ish I love he gives the way most feel when the withdrawal from carbs sugar etc. You can cut carbs and sugar slowing cut the carbs slow each week. I had it 1 full month of fatigue. I didn’t do it slow kept watching video to keep going. I’m so glad I pushed we are 9 months in
Dr. Anthony Chaffee literally saved my life half a year ago by spreading the truth. I was then binge watching him, Dr. Ken Berry and Dr. Eric Westman for weeks for support. Now I am regaining my health and returning to life again. Finally!
Ken is top notch.
Dr. Berry is sharp as a samurai sword 🙌
Gosh, all the food Dr. Berry eats are the best for me too. My supplement is 1 ounce of raw grass fed liver a day. No caffeine for 40 years. I’m 69 and look 20 years younger if I do say so myself.
I’m very happy and strong on grassfed ruminants, caviar, oysters, cod liver, salt, grapefruit, water and occasionally matcha after a large brunch. My labs aren’t just within range but optimal. This is actually easy for me bc everyone knows exactly what to keep stocked and make for me. I don’t go to the gym or run but I’m constantly in motion doing things and multi tasking. I party hard every once in a while and it’s not a problem.
4hr video, please let's have more of these.
Thank you! This must have taken a lot of time and effort to produce. It is brilliant and much appreciated. Thorough, very informative & helpful. Greetings from UK
Wonderful succinct and Doctor Berry has most eloquently delivered what all humans should listen to, understand, and share with the tribe.
I love liver. But it shall have onions and garlic. It's a must. Everything tastes better with onions and garlic.
Sure does!
And mushrooms. . I'm a little dirty carnivore.
And bacon! Don’t forget bacon!
@@margomoore4527 ooh - next time I have liver I will add pieces of bacon, thanks :)
@@margomoore4527
Everything’s better with a big slab of bacon!
Jesse, long interviews are awesome. I love to work out to these.
I love the long ones, too!
Dr. Berry your words ring so loud and true. They have had such a deeply impactful, profound and meaningful influence on my life. Thank you so much for teaching me.
At 72yrs l have had so many different diets over the years. I gave up sugar 15yrs ago and felt great. 10yrs ago l gave up carbs feel even better. I started keto 1 year ago feel better again & got rid of my sinuses permanently, 1st time in decades. More Carnivor l started 6 months ago and my energy levels are off the scale & can work for hours. The only issue is constipation because l eat native wild meat (kangeroo) which has no fat so l now cook in gee and eat butter and eat green vegs or swig coconut MCL if chronicly constipated. Just need to tune my intake with fat l believe. I am not happy eating cows or chicken as l have to rely on humans to feed nutrient rich grass. I know the mineral content of wild meat & fish is a must. All the people l care about have passed with a different chronic disease or fatal medical drugs.
LOVE Dr. Berry! Excellent interview!
I am 65 yrs old this December have been researching and listening to y’all for two weeks.
I became sick and tired of being sick and tired. Lost much of my wt 3 different times through gym, ‘balanced’ meals, protein shakes….only to put the wt back on.
Thankyou . Food for fuel .
Julia child had the best diet . She ate at least a pound of butter a week .
Food was real back then , she warned against packaged food .
I also eat a pound of butter a week. Kerry gold grass fed butter. Been pretty strict carnivore for 3 years. Never felt better. I'm 76 years old. Keep a stable weight, walk a mile every day. Lost 45 pounds and kept it off. On no meds . THIS WAY OF EATING GETS RID OF INFLAMATION. Witch is the cause of every disease. Please try it and see your own transformation !
She was a big woman. V tall and big boned. She would have needed more fuel than people of smaller stature.
I did a four week water fast and when I started eating I did not start with coffee again. The whole fasting process reset my food addictions. They just left me obviously for good. I don't feel for any of the other bad foods like bread and potato chips. The only foods I am eating now are mainly meats, lots of raw meats, eggs, I have always loved liver, butter, self made sauerkraut, ACV, onions and arugula. Once in a while I love the juice of a grapefruit or lemon.. And this is all that my body wants now.
How did you manage to fast for four weeks? Good for you!
@@ellajayleenbryan9636 once you are beyond your first three days its getting easy. I have done it more than once so my ego shuts up quickly. I did it prolonged because I had to amp up autophagy in order to heal some issues.
@@Rosatachyondid your health issues all heal? If you don't mind, what were the issues? I am trying to heal some issues by eating carnivore for the past 22 months and have healed many issues except for a couple of stubborn issues.
😱You didn't eat any food at all for 4 weeks OR you Intermittent Fasted everyday for 4 weeks? I have never known anyone to totally fast for more than 4-5 days.
@@jaso9217 Yes, no food for 30 days, only water plus salt plus other electrolytes. I live in Europe I believe fasting is more common here..
I think I will subscribe, never seen him before, but, he seems like a really nice, caring man.
Jesse I agree with some of what you said..regarding about the "age/activity level when someone starts their journey. It does matter, but what I can tell you that once someone gets rolling with a proper human diet, their mental state about the whole activity level will greatly improve, and they will find they can and will engage in some level of activity. While personally... I'm about ready to start competing at 66, I dont expect most people will go that extreme.. but I can tell you that mentally and physcially.. going carnivore..will be life changing. I know the carnivore diet super jazzed me up. I do high intensity training road cycling- sprints/weight-resistance training.
I used to be in love with chocolate and all the sugary pastry, whatever carbs that was, the first time I went to a supermarket after deciding to be on a carnivore diet, I felt so bad not being able to eat literally anything that is on a shelf. But now I don't care, it feels so good to eat real food. Actually, I feel happier now, other foods don't mean nothing to me now. I fully enjoy my unsalted butter from time to time, it is like my nowadays ice cream.😂😂. To be honest , I have lost so much weight, having a few bites of butter for breakfast with my coffee or every time i feel hungry and eating my meal around 5pm, actually I don't even feel hunger anymore. I hope carnivore diet is a diet with no consequences because I would love to be on this diet forever ❤❤. By the way , butter helps with hunger while fasting and doesn't elevate blood glucose.
The best video to learn about carnivore
Dr Berry as a fellow native Tennessean TTU class of ‘69 I’m a loyal disciple. Everything the PhD did for you did the same for me; and more👍
You are absolutely right about the food advertising no longer having an influence on me.
This is a terrific interview, I'm glad I watched this.
Dr Berry thank you for a great video and thank you Jesse for the best interview. Great information to pass on
Bless you both
Awesome guest! Love Dr. B! Thank you!
Hi Dr. Berry
Firstly, I want to express my gratitude for your insightful videos. I am a 37-year-old Indian man, 6 feet tall, currently on day 17 of the carnivore diet. I started at 101 kg and have lost 3 kg, but more significantly, I have noticed a substantial reduction in inches around my waist. I feel better than ever. Initially, I focused on lamb, eggs, and animal fats, but recently, I have developed a newfound appreciation for ribeye steak. Despite my initial concerns about decreased gym performance due to the absence of carbs, I have experienced the opposite. I no longer feel fatigued and have achieved personal records in my lifts, including deadlifts, bench presses, and shoulder presses. I am pleasantly surprised by these results and am now considering extending my carnivore diet from 30 days to possibly 90 days. Thank you.
Thank you very much to both of you gentlemen for taking the time and energy to share with us this wealth of information. Im grateful that there are people like you who care enough for others to tell the truth.
1:35:56 Starting my 11 month in doing carnivore. Not perfect. Retired 2 years from emergency nursing. 256lbs tired depressed unhappy. Now 179lbs, little exercise but some, feeling much better, depression lifted, happy wow!! Looking good, labito crazy improved, walk 3 to 5 miles per day. In a carbohydrate home spouse not on board whom is a diabetic on insulin, ozempic and blood pressure meds and a couple of more to pee out sugar. However I have noticed they cut down on their carb consumption watching me, one of their blood pressure pills with their doctor had to be reduced. With ozempic they have lost weight but unfortunately some muscle loss. I don't practice nursing at home, as an argument will come to be. My third relationship and have learned to shut my mouth, lead by example. lost my partner 9 years ago this month after a 30 year short relationship massive coronary event. I am off most of my meds one two med for prostate issues. Off my prevacid for gastric reflux, off blood pressure pills, off antidepressants. All my aches and pain gone. However, just off a boat cruise, went off carnivore i could of done it lots of food choices on the ship to have done so. I had many sugary alcoholic beverages, eat many desserts, oh my goodness lots of bread, gained 5lbs in the 7 days on board. 90 percent of the people on board were overweight male, female, children young teens early to late 20's were either pudgy, fat, and many morbidly obese. Got home back to carnivore lifestyle don't like to say diet. Thought I had COVID tested twice thankfully negative so perhaps the flu, then ding dong sugar withdrawal, day 4 home feeling better each day, all my joints ached what hair I have left hurt, my back pain crazy uncomfortable. Sugar=inflammation good experience great reinforcement no regrets
Great and compelling exchange! Thank you both for the PHD level course in nutrition. 🙏🏻
Talking about seasoned fruit. Years ago while working as expatriate in Africa. For a couple of weeks, I was checking, double checking and triple checking! A fantastically looking mango. Hanging up on a tree on our camp.
Long story short. The day before cropping that amazing, ripped and sweet mango! I start planing all the action on my head...
Drive the 4x4 under the tree. Get on the roof of the vehicle and finish by having it for desert.
Come the day and respective lunch time. Drive to location, stop the 4x4 under the tree. Get out, look up...
To find out someone took it before me! LOL :-)
😆 the bastard!
Brilliant interview.
One comment; our ancestors in the rift valley had very consistent days. Sun up 6am sun down 6pm. They are on the Equator. In Swahili the word for 7am is one hour after sun up. Much easier to have consistent circadian rhythm.
Very well done gents. I watched the entire almost 4 hours. Excellent insight mixed with so much common sense and sound knowledge. Love your approach Dr. Berry. Keep up the good work for what is so far the silent minority. Greater achievements to follow.
I am a retired family physician. I live for decades on adrenaline and cortisol to perform in the face of long hours and stressful decisions, Sugar was one more path to performance in the face of fatigue. I found that giving up the sugar was much easier than giving up adrenaline, but think cutting back adrenaline was better for my health and relationships. What if anything do you do to control cortisol and adrenaline?
Just a suggestion: look into retraining the mind. Mary Ruddick is a proponent and there are others. Diet is crucial but so are other parts of lifestyle. Getting your body to be in the parasympathetic state rather than the sympathetic state can be controlled by the mind. I am not schooled in this area and am just beginning to scratch the surface. You need to tap into the relaxed body and mind state. All the best to you.
My second time of listening to this fabulous talk. Dr Berry conveys his message so clearly, with not too much fancy-pants science speak. Thank you again
I had severe nightly reflux issues for years! Started carnivore aug.1.23. In the last 7 months I experienced reflux only one night. And that was the only time I ate a single slice of a big tomato in my 'carniburger'. I love(d) tomatoes! 😂
carbs of any kind cause my acid reflux. No carbs, no acid reflux. Was on PPI but only for a couple of months.
do you guys mean like silent reflux?
By reflux I mean the condition when the contents of the stomach suddenly flow up into the esophagus and even into the oral cavity. By far, this happened to me most often while sleeping on my right side. It is significantly better when sleeping on the left side.
2:02:42 - I live in tropical Mexico, and the sour oranges, guavas, and avocados ABSOLUTELY have a season here. The guavas appear during September and October, then they're gone. 💯
Wow Dr. Ken it sounds just like a spiritual journey!!😊❤💫Remembering who you really are and letting go of all that no longer serves you!!
Some days I need a 4 hour video to keep me going. Thank you, thank you.
My acid reflux or gerd was 99% because of caffeine. Caffeine has been shown in mice to loosen the sphincter of the stomach. Its measurable.
Switched to decaf, GERD is 99% gone.
Thank you so much guys! Best video ever!! God bless❣️🙏
Love this long in-depth video! 🤩💪🫶
