In my first two months of carnivore, I had trouble with stomach indigestion. I had to eat my last meal early in the day and follow it up with a cocktail of apple cider vinegar and lemon juice (a tsp each) in hot water (it’s surprisingly tasty). I’m starting my third month, and it seems my stomach is beginning to adjust. I’m able to eat later with no indigestion. Also stools were loose during that first two months. Those are firming up and becoming more regular. My point is that our smart bodies will adjust over time. Be encouraged!
@@zzzjon Yes it’s been a while. I’ve adopted carnivore as my primary diet but I’ve gone off the rails a few times. When I do, my body pains come back, including arthritis, which is no fun. When I stick to meat I have no indigestion even when I use spices. The indigestion comes primarily from grains. I haven’t given up my wine or coffee. I’d no doubt feel even better if I did. Carnivore is definitely the way to go for me. ❤️
My magic combo was HCL+pepsin and milk thistle! I knew high fat was the best for my mood, energy and alertness so I tried a bunch of different things but it turns out I had low stomach acid and the HCL did the trick WITH PEPSIN. The loose stools were fixed with milk thistle, which supports bile acid malabsorption 👍🏻 I’m at the point I can even eat rendered fat!
Too much protein without fat and I get crazy tired immediately after eating. My teen daughter tried a chicken breast recipe and was excited for me to try her cooking...I should have added some butter because I felt sooo tired just minutes after eating. Thankfully I was able to take a nap. If I had realized, I would have immediately eaten some fat just on its own. If I had been about to go to a job or something, I would have been so moody without the needed fat.
After doing carnivore for a couple of months now; chickens are only good for eggs. LOL Seriously; I do not like chicken or pork anymore. Not enough fat/flavor.
On a note about HCL. When consuming a meal as well as 10 minutes prior and up to 30 minutes after the meal/snack, you should avoid consuming any alkaline beverages. I would personally not consuming any beverage during this period. Unless you're having trouble getting the food down. By avoiding alkaline beverages you'll retain more hcl to digest what your eating. Preventing the food from fermenting and causing heartburn, gas, etc.
Started Keto 18 months ago and have overcame T2 Diabetes, hypertension, off 9 meds etc....6 months ago I switched from a nutritional Keto diet to a Paleo Keto per Dr. Zsofia Clemens of Paleo Medicina. It is a high fat to proteins ratio of 2:1. This approach has shown to be very beneficial in the healing of the intestinal tract, specifically targeting intestinal permeability (leaky gut). I figured if I had any permeability now is the time to fix it. I think most folks on the SAD diet for decades have some intestinal disfunction. Heal the gut and heal the body. I have been doing this with 23/1 eating window. Have maintained optimal weight with high energy. Having a GKI range between 2-3. This was suppose to be a 6 month experiment but I like it, so I shall continue until I do not.
@@NutritionwithJudy Yes agree on the caloric restrictions. I do not count calories. During this PKD I stopped all supplements and spices. Eat till I am satiated. I made my own % carb, protein and fat calculator using mostly info from Nutrita. I have been recording all food weights and macros, blood pressures, glucose, BHB twice per day since December 2018 as well as sleep via the Oura Ring, only because I like it, I'm a data junkie. 62 years old, metabolically 55. 133 lbs.. and eat between 700 to 800 grams per day with 90-120g being protein. Thanks for all you do and keep sharing the good news. Looking forward to your book.
Hi, Judy. I had eschemic bowel syndrome. 85% of my small intestines were removed and 5% of my colon. I've had diarrhea since 2013. I started the carnivore diet 6 weeks ago and I feel so much better. But I can't eat much because I also had gastric bypass in 05 so I can't eat much. But I cook with butter and make butter bites, I eat ribeyes for dinner. Lunch I have eggs and bacon. But I still have diarrhea. I admit I don't go to the restroom as often as I use to, but I still feel tired. I don't know where to look for help I've ask so many professionals of the carnivore diet and they never answer my question. Hopefully you can tell me what to do. Thank you so much. ~ Rosie
11th day on the carnivore, I've been losing 0.5kg a day, and It feels amazing to see the scale budge and the weights going down. I've lost 47kg since having my son, then 7kg last month during Ramadan, then I've lost a few on carnivore. Let's see, I have another 8kg to lose before hitting my GW 50kg.
Wow!! Thanks so much for sharing this video. I’m planning on going back to carnivore. In the past I had very low energy & brain fog on carnivore. I really liked when I reduced belly fat while cutting carbs significantly. This video is very helpful. 👍🏼👏🏽👏🏻💕💯
Yes, I’ve been one month with carnivore and really having some problems with diarrhea. My biggest is I don’t have a gallbladder, so I’m trying with ox bile and enzymes before each meal. I am really concerned as I was diagnosed with.Sibo and I was told that the carnivore diet will kill any type of tech tear bad bacteria in your stomach. Now I’m thinking am I causing more of this bad bacteria because I don’t know if I’m digesting my meat and fat as I do have diarrhea. Help!
Watch her video on diagnosing gut health issues...I don't remember what the exact title is but I can find out if you want. I even watched a few videos of Eric Berg on gut health where he provides the different symptoms you will have based on where your gut issues lie. I had diarrhea and bloating, and I took Betaine HCl first. It worked for a few days then stopped. Now am taking bile supplements and it is working...fingers crossed it works more than a few days.
Looked this up because i have been craving fat. Transitioning into carnivore, finishing off some nuts and berries but feeling tired, brain fog and depressed. The extra fat helped and i'm steal craving fat as if it was a piece of delicious chocolate. Thx for the info.
I feel tired after my meals, after eating a steak. Is it because I don’t have a Gaul bladder? Can or do I need to eat more fat and is beef tallow or lame fat okay. Is butter better. Thanks for helping people like me.
Thank you for the amazing content. Quick question. What is the consensus on other holistic activities such as coffee enemas, colonics, etc.? I've been total carnivore for about 2 months. Stools have been challenging and not moving along as usual. Any thoughts?
Sounds like you might need more fat in your diet? I have the same problem, and if I manage to eat a few spoonfuls of butter each day then my stools come out more easily.
Is it Okay to take these support supplements if I have GERD? I have to eat three or four TUMS every day because of the reflux and eat last meal no later than 5 PM.
I’m 112lbs and I have been struggling on this diet with poor sleep, low energy, palpitations, brain fog, tiredness during the day and major swelling in my hands at night . I had to add carbs after being strict carnivore for the palpitations and it has helped. I also added dairy But This swelling is really concerning me. My blood panel showed elevated ferritin, elevated cholesterol, morning glucose 95 and 5.3 A1c (all of these numbers have gone up since carnivore) I think I am eating too much protein and possibly too much dairy but if I lower my consumption of either I can’t get enough calories for the day and I loose weight. (I’m underweight already) please help. My protein intake has been around 90-130g carbs 40-80g and fat 100-130g.
Greetings ❤ Judy mentioned her protein consumption was about 70 grams and she weighs 130. Maybe lower your protein. I am 65 and adjusting to Carnivore. Good luck with your healing 😊
What if you don’t have a gallbladder anymore? I started on the carnivore diet this past Tuesday. I have mostly been eating breakfast 1 egg 2 to 3 pieces of bacon and tbsp butter . 8 oz ribeye for lunch and 1 tbsp butter. 8 oz. Chuck eye steak . 1tbsp butter. I have had upset stomach since I started . I started doing electrolytes also.
Great video Judy. I must be a very different person as I feel very tired and lethargic and sleepy when I eat too much fat.I have tried multiple times and every time is the same. In the other hand I am so energetic eating meat . I am a mystery !
@@kateaye3506 yeah...I have noticed as well that I need to "fat cycle "😉 my body is telling me when. The only problem is I don't do well with tallow, suet etc. And the only another way is dairy, butter cream etc. Which i don't want to eat either 😆 may I ask what is your fat source? Cheers
Can using lime juice on meat help with stomach acid or digestion? I don't like it in water, too strong for me. Do I have to worry about intestinal breakdown cuz of constipation and bloating?
I have gerds and is difficult at times to swallow protein where it doesn’t want to go down my throat. I sometimes have to bring it up because I feel as though I am choking. I really want to start the carnivore diet because of all the health benefits that many doctors like you, Dr. Ken Berry and many others are telling us. My mom has gerds as well and she told me about integrative similase supplements to take before a meal with protein. Any thoughts on this? Is it safe for me to go carnivore. I don’t dare ask my own doctor because he thinks it’s a fad diet. I really would appreciate your input. Thank you.
How are things now? I have Gerds after a seatbelt injury. Upping the fat helped a lot. I have trouble swallowing uncoated pills and have to chew food then add the pills before swallowing. Also, if food doesn't go down I take a sip of water which helps immediately. The acid reflux only appears if I eat before bedtime or drink to much coffee. The ketovore diet has helped immensley tho.
How we get 1 pound of protein/meat (minimum to eat) for 140 pound person? 0.8gr protein (min.amount per pound weight) multiplied by 140 pound (weighing person) to get 104gr protein required. Then divide 104gr by 7 to get 15 oz, which is 1 pound protein/meat. How?? How 104gr protein turns to 15 oz (which is around 450gr=1 pound) protein? Where magic number 7 comes from? Any explanations will be appreciated.
Not sure where the 7 comes from, but it is Because grams of meat do not equal grams of protein. For example 100grams of lean steak can have somewhere around 25grams of protein. The rest is water and other components. Just find a macro calculator online and see different foods ( is not going to be exact, but very close). Good luck
I have prominent/full heartbeat and increased blood pressure after eating full beef meal especially and can't sleep most of the night because of this. Have anyone heard of this ?
My B12 is double the upper level after 11 months of carnivore. Any idea why would that be? Some carnivores on Instagram experience the same. Thank you Judy
Being carnivore I started do break out with itchy hives. I introduced ox bile and it went away. I also now use digestive enzymes and bentaine hydrochloride. If I forget to take these with meals I still get the hives. How long should I expect I’d need to take these? Should I see my gut heal over time? Love your work
Nutrition with Judy Thank you Judy! I’ve been Keto since December 2017 Been meat based ketogenic starting September 2018 Strict carnivore in January 2020 Hives issue started January 2020 Started all this to specifically rid acne. Removing dairy helped the most. 85% gone but still persists. You mentioned fungal in a video and I’m using a antifunal shampoo this month with no results for acne. I also take l-glutamine and a pre+probiotic now for 2 months for gut. I’ll try a chelator and anti-fungal. Any specific kind I should try?
I have a question regarding people who had their gull bladder removed. Would they have issues with the carnivore diet. I am doing pretty good on the diet but I am curious about people with gull bladder issues my brother in law got his removed
@@bobsapp4119 No, that's the fat ratio. Usually ground beef that is sold at stores will have the ratio. Some are 92% lean, some 80%, but I like the ones that are closer to 70% lean. So the other 30% is fat. The fatter cuts are cheaper too.
People with an MTHFR mutation have a harder time methylating B vitamins into the form our cells are able to use. Roughly 30% of American adults have an MTHFR mutation. It is helpful to take a methylated b complex to insure they are getting the b vitamins they need.
Great one. I have heard that I should eat .8 G protein per pound of LEAN BODY MASS. I like yours better! But I do want to clarify. I want to lose weight - so is .8 per pound that I currently weigh going to help me do that? Thanks!
I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago. I'm amazed myself since I've done keto then to Carnivore maybe 95% only ( I cant give up my Macadamia nuts & Pistachios just a nice small portion😀) So far I did not experience any discomfort when I transition to more protein/fats meals. Even my acid reflux is gone!! I also add 1TBS of ACV with some spices & salt in my meals for the taste. Even without ACV no discomfort at all. Only that happens in my observation when sometimes I got tempted picking Carb & sugar!!! Maybe we're not all the same, so far I feel great @ 67.
Check out Judy's other video "How much to eat on the Carnivore Diet. Counting macros, pounds of meat, OMAD, fasting, Keto." th-cam.com/video/UvWQjqDofGo/w-d-xo.html It depends on height, age, ideal body weight, gender. But, at least 1gram of protein for every pound of ideal weight. Fat/protein about 75%/25% :)
Here is Judy's other video: "How Much to Eat on a Carnivore Diet (for Hormones and Thyroid): Macros, Calories, Protein & Fats" th-cam.com/video/zsyhfEskuUo/w-d-xo.html
Same with me. Had to be gentle with adding fat in the beginning. Now, more than 2 months into carnivore I have no problems digesting around 100g of fat together with my meals every day.
I tried high fat (80/20) and my hands started drying up like crazy when I have never had that problem in my life... I was getting bleeding cuts out of nowhere... I didn't change my foods, I just ate more (basically all) of the leftover fat after cooking the meat, and cutting down to 1 lb meat/day Once I went back to what I had been doing (75/25 and 1.5-2 lb meat/day) it went away
Thanks for the video! I’m about 2 months into the carnivore diet. Aside from butter, what are some other fats I can add to the diet? I eat lots of protein and I eat the whole steak, fat and all. Is that good enough?
Nutrition with Judy thank you! Please mention that sometime in a video. When I started tracking, I found my macros were reversed, much more protein than fat. I feel so much better energy-wise, since I started monitoring and making the effort to eat sufficient fat. I reverted to CarbManager from my keto days for this. Husband does, too. Thank you for your work in support of the carnivore diet.
GROAN, despite searching all over NO where am I able to see accurate ratios of protein to fats. I need to determine if I am eating enough fats due to cortisol rising after meals! Caloric counts are skewed by mainstream opinions on what is best. Carnivores apparently need 80% fats...is that like 8 Tablespoons for every 3.5 grm protein? Tell me, we all likely need to know. This is agony having been on Carnivore for 3 yrs now but wobbling off with cravings & pleasure trips, Show us the amount in Tablespoons that you put on you 3.5-4 ounce burger or whatever you do best on. At least then one can figure it out for ourselves.

I get sooo tired after I eat pretty much anything except for when I consume raw eggs in full fat coconut milk. I thought it was just carbs making me so tired but now that I’m trying full carnivore, the meat/fat meals also make me so tired. It’s so frustrating!
@@tallcedars2310 actually it seems I am also in another Lyme/bartonella flare. Just ordered a comprehensive tick borne disease panel from Igenix, results in 10 days. Been dealing with tick diseases for many years sadly. As long as I don’t eat too much meat at one time then I don’t get tired. If I add seasoning or sauces then I often get very sleepy with fast pounding heart so I stick to just salt & butter with the meat and do fine. I get pounding heart if the canned coconut milk has added guar gum so I order stuff online from Vietnam that is just coconut & water. The raw eggs & coconut milk with added redmonds salt is what makes me feel the best, my gut is happy & I get energy from that. I’ve been taking 8-10 raw farm fresh eggs nearly every day. Some days only 4 eggs. Cooked eggs make me a little sleepy and my gut can’t handle much of that.
@@AllThingsConsidered333 Sorry to hear you are dealing with tick borne illness. I was tested for it due to extreme fatigue. Was relieved the results were negative. Then I learned testing was not conclusive and I still might have it... Do you have your gall bladder? I had to have mine out for reasons still unknown since surgeon would not tell me why. It was after a car accident and I did have seatbelt injuries, so I guess it was torn or something. I have started taking ox bile salts to help me digest the fats that, as you know, are so important. I used to get tired after eating before carnivore, and once in awhile still do. One thing that Dr. Chaffee mentions for this is that one may not be eating enough. I am trying 2 meals a day, it seems to be helping. I drink 4-8 eggs a day in milk also. One more thing I am trying is a parasite cleanse. My apologies if this is gross, but I have read that parasites can cause fatigue, so I'm trying it. I won't go into details but if you do a search, it might be worthwhile. On the carnivore diet my energy has improved but not as fast as young peoples. I have decades of carbohydrate damage to deal with, and a car accident didn't help. But I finally feel like doing something other than sitting around, it's great. Have suffered 3 decades with low energy and it's nice to finally live a little. It's great we have found the carnivore diet has helped but we both have a ways to go before we get the energy we want. All we can do is keeping trying!

Try eating more fatty beef. And take nattokinase and serrapeptase to keep the arteries clear.
I drink 1/4 tsp. salt in 1 cup water before bed to calm a pounding heart.
I would also research histamines. I had the same problem for a bit.
Thank you!!!
My B12 is double the upper level after 11 months of carnivore. Any idea why would that be? Some carnivores on Instagram experience the same. Thank you Judy
c.d.i. Did you ever figure out why your b12 was double?
When my B12 is low I get a B12 injection which absorbs quicker then tablets.
Being carnivore I started do break out with itchy hives. I introduced ox bile and it went away. I also now use digestive enzymes and bentaine hydrochloride. If I forget to take these with meals I still get the hives. How long should I expect I’d need to take these? Should I see my gut heal over time?
Love your work
A probitoic called Culturelle helped my gut issues.
Nutrition with Judy
Thank you Judy!
I’ve been Keto since December 2017
Been meat based ketogenic starting September 2018
Strict carnivore in January 2020
Hives issue started January 2020
Started all this to specifically rid acne. Removing dairy helped the most. 85% gone but still persists. You mentioned fungal in a video and I’m using a antifunal shampoo this month with no results for acne. I also take l-glutamine and a pre+probiotic now for 2 months for gut. I’ll try a chelator and anti-fungal. Any specific kind I should try?
I am using digestive support, but am still having gallbladder issues. When I eat less fat I have no energy. I am starting to feel rather discouraged.
Thank you!!
Zinc Carnosine helps with digestive issues.
Try TUDCA
I have a question regarding people who had their gull bladder removed. Would they have issues with the carnivore diet. I am doing pretty good on the diet but I am curious about people with gull bladder issues my brother in law got his removed
I thought the rule was if you have loose stools, then up your salt. If you're backed up, up your fats.
What if you do not have a gall bladder?
I feel best when I eat ground beef at a 70/30 fat ratio.
Do you render out the much of the fat and throw it away as in hamburgers--or do you eat the rendered fat along with the ground beef? Thanks!
@@jim5jim5jim5 I actually eat it raw. Easier to digest.
Thank you for both of your responses! I will consider all your thoughts. 🙂
Hi, is that 70/30 weight of food, or number of calories?
@@bobsapp4119 No, that's the fat ratio. Usually ground beef that is sold at stores will have the ratio. Some are 92% lean, some 80%, but I like the ones that are closer to 70% lean. So the other 30% is fat. The fatter cuts are cheaper too.
Hi Judy, what is the background noise I hear? Ocean?
So eating a carnivore diet can potentially make SIBO worse?!! I started eating this way a week ago thinking it would cure my SIBO. What the heck?!!!
What do u mean by digestive support ? Supplements ?
What about MTHFR and b vitamin absorption?
Post meal fatigue can be histamine intolerance too!
People with an MTHFR mutation have a harder time methylating B vitamins into the form our cells are able to use. Roughly 30% of American adults have an MTHFR mutation. It is helpful to take a methylated b complex to insure they are getting the b vitamins they need.
I have low energy AND loose stools.
???
Thank you again well said
Thank you for your video😊
Maybe high dose of Niacin (to increase l-carnitine and fat oxidation) + vitamin c (increase hcl, lower cortisol)?
Thanks for sharing 🙏
Great one. I have heard that I should eat .8 G protein per pound of LEAN BODY MASS. I like yours better! But I do want to clarify. I want to lose weight - so is .8 per pound that I currently weigh going to help me do that? Thanks!
Great topic!
What about when you have no gallbladder and have had some of your colon removed ?
I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago. I'm amazed myself since I've done keto then to Carnivore maybe 95% only ( I cant give up my Macadamia nuts & Pistachios just a nice small portion😀) So far I did not experience any discomfort when I transition to more protein/fats meals. Even my acid reflux is gone!! I also add 1TBS of ACV with some spices & salt in my meals for the taste. Even without ACV no discomfort at all. Only that happens in my observation when sometimes I got tempted picking Carb & sugar!!! Maybe we're not all the same, so far I feel great @ 67.
Okay but then how long can you take hcl? One year later.
What would be a optimal number of grams should be for fat. We got the .8 for protein, but what about the fat?
Check out Judy's other video "How much to eat on the Carnivore Diet. Counting macros, pounds of meat, OMAD, fasting, Keto." th-cam.com/video/UvWQjqDofGo/w-d-xo.html
It depends on height, age, ideal body weight, gender. But, at least 1gram of protein for every pound of ideal weight. Fat/protein about 75%/25% :)
Is that the amount of protein per day or per meal? I am new to carnivore, i have no idea on the macros.
Here is Judy's other video: "How Much to Eat on a Carnivore Diet (for Hormones and Thyroid): Macros, Calories, Protein & Fats" th-cam.com/video/zsyhfEskuUo/w-d-xo.html
I don't have a gall bladder, can I still be carnivore?
Same with me. Had to be gentle with adding fat in the beginning. Now, more than 2 months into carnivore I have no problems digesting around 100g of fat together with my meals every day.
I tried high fat (80/20) and my hands started drying up like crazy when I have never had that problem in my life... I was getting bleeding cuts out of nowhere... I didn't change my foods, I just ate more (basically all) of the leftover fat after cooking the meat, and cutting down to 1 lb meat/day
Once I went back to what I had been doing (75/25 and 1.5-2 lb meat/day) it went away
Thanks for the video! I’m about 2 months into the carnivore diet. Aside from butter, what are some other fats I can add to the diet? I eat lots of protein and I eat the whole steak, fat and all. Is that good enough?
Bacon, Baby!!
I often add duck fat to my meats during cooking..
notification gang!!
What about our fat macro? I do a 0:25:75 carbs, protein, fat. This info is not complete. Please respond with a fat baseline, too.
Nutrition with Judy thank you! Please mention that sometime in a video. When I started tracking, I found my macros were reversed, much more protein than fat. I feel so much better energy-wise, since I started monitoring and making the effort to eat sufficient fat. I reverted to CarbManager from my keto days for this. Husband does, too. Thank you for your work in support of the carnivore diet.
@@NutritionwithJudy I'm new here--what kind of fat and how prepared and eaten. 80% fat by grams or calories? Thank you!
I can't eat fatless meat. I dislike chicken breasts for this.
thank u
PKD diet. 2:1 fat to protein ratio. Nuff said.
How do u help the gallbladder?
Take ox bile supplements
When I take Culturelle in the morning, I can digest meat better.
What if you don’t have a gallbladder? ☺️
GROAN, despite searching all over NO where am I able to see accurate ratios of protein to fats. I need to determine if I am eating enough fats due to cortisol rising after meals! Caloric counts are skewed by mainstream opinions on what is best. Carnivores apparently need 80% fats...is that like 8 Tablespoons for every 3.5 grm protein? Tell me, we all likely need to know. This is agony having been on Carnivore for 3 yrs now but wobbling off with cravings & pleasure trips, Show us the amount in Tablespoons that you put on you 3.5-4 ounce burger or whatever you do best on. At least then one can figure it out for ourselves.
Cronometer is a great app for tracking your macros and adjusting.

WTF is a digestive support?

Does ACV help?
Yes it does before eating protein.
Hello 👋💙❤️💜👍
Fatty > Lean
👍👍
I get sooo tired after I eat pretty much anything except for when I consume raw eggs in full fat coconut milk.
I thought it was just carbs making me so tired but now that I’m trying full carnivore, the meat/fat meals also make me so tired. It’s so frustrating!
It was likely detoxing that caused the fatigue, how are you doing now?
@@tallcedars2310 actually it seems I am also in another Lyme/bartonella flare. Just ordered a comprehensive tick borne disease panel from Igenix, results in 10 days. Been dealing with tick diseases for many years sadly.
As long as I don’t eat too much meat at one time then I don’t get tired. If I add seasoning or sauces then I often get very sleepy with fast pounding heart so I stick to just salt & butter with the meat and do fine.
I get pounding heart if the canned coconut milk has added guar gum so I order stuff online from Vietnam that is just coconut & water. The raw eggs & coconut milk with added redmonds salt is what makes me feel the best, my gut is happy & I get energy from that. I’ve been taking 8-10 raw farm fresh eggs nearly every day. Some days only 4 eggs. Cooked eggs make me a little sleepy and my gut can’t handle much of that.
@@AllThingsConsidered333 Sorry to hear you are dealing with tick borne illness. I was tested for it due to extreme fatigue. Was relieved the results were negative. Then I learned testing was not conclusive and I still might have it...
Do you have your gall bladder? I had to have mine out for reasons still unknown since surgeon would not tell me why. It was after a car accident and I did have seatbelt injuries, so I guess it was torn or something. I have started taking ox bile salts to help me digest the fats that, as you know, are so important.
I used to get tired after eating before carnivore, and once in awhile still do. One thing that Dr. Chaffee mentions for this is that one may not be eating enough. I am trying 2 meals a day, it seems to be helping. I drink 4-8 eggs a day in milk also.
One more thing I am trying is a parasite cleanse. My apologies if this is gross, but I have read that parasites can cause fatigue, so I'm trying it. I won't go into details but if you do a search, it might be worthwhile.
On the carnivore diet my energy has improved but not as fast as young peoples. I have decades of carbohydrate damage to deal with, and a car accident didn't help. But I finally feel like doing something other than sitting around, it's great. Have suffered 3 decades with low energy and it's nice to finally live a little.
It's great we have found the carnivore diet has helped but we both have a ways to go before we get the energy we want. All we can do is keeping trying!
