- Dr Paul Mason obtained his medical degree with honours from the University of Sydney, and also holds degrees in Physiotherapy and Occupational Health. He is a Specialist Sports Medicine and Exercise Physician.
Dr Mason developed an interest in low carbohydrate diets in 2011. Since then he has spent hundreds of hours reading and analysing the scientific literature.
For a number of years, Dr. Mason has been applying this knowledge in treating metabolic and arthritis patients who have achieved dramatic and sustained weight loss and reductions in joint pain.

After 6 month’s of carnivore.
Lost 60Lbs
Lost my sleep apnea
Lost my fatty liver
No more pre diabetic
My skin looks amazing!
And I still have obese family members telling me that it’s not good for me and I’m going to die soon. People are so conditioned.
They are in denial.
It's crazy how people can deny what they see so clearly with their own eyes
Incredible. Can you expand more on how you made the change?
I have been eating only meat for 3 days.. DAYS!!!! Already I can walk without so much pain in my knees that I want to cry. My knees are not as swollen and I can see my knee caps. This is amazing. I am 76 yrs old.
How do you know you lost your fatty liver?
Based on research which has shown that cancers grow more slowly on a keto diet, I put our 13 year old golden retriever on keto several months ago after she had surgeries for 4 mass cell tumors in 2 months. Since then she has had no more visible tumors, and surprisingly her fur shedding, which had always been a problem, has been reduced by about 90%. Apparently, keto is good for dogs as well. Update after 10 months on the diet - still no more tumors. Vet recently did an ultrasound and some biopsies and found nothing internally either.
Makes perfect sense since they are designed to be apex predators like us…
Being a golden lover myself (my boy was 12).
That makes me happy. Unfortunately as you know cancer is very prevalent in this beautiful breed.
Kibbles omega-6
@@arthurdobyns7739 no kibbles! Real men don't eat pizza, real dogs don't eat kibbles.
Try BLACK CUMIN SEED OIL for cancer or thyroid issues
I went carnivore in January, you should see the faces of people when (after being asked what I do to look so trim without going to the gym) I tell them I haven't eaten plants this year. 😳
ha ha ha yeah crack on! love it.
Long term you will get heart disease.
Yeah, other ladies keep asking me what skin care "products" I'm using. Answer, none.
@@tonyrogers8259 ah, no. Two words: Ivor Cummins. Or three: the Fat prophet.
Lol
I’ve been eating less and less veggies and went carnivore a few days ago and magically my IBD symptoms went away! I don’t have gut pain anymore. For the past few days I’ve been only eating beef in steak and ground forms. The crazy thing is when I looked up info about foods someone with IBD should eat, they tell you to avoid red meat as it will cause a flare up. Now I will say only do organic or grass fed, mostly grass fed. The chemicals in non organic meat will cause problems. But it’s crazy how the food that heals the gut, all health folks and websites tell you to avoid, including my pcp and gi. When I told my doctor I was having problems a few months ago, they did all sorts of tests and found out nothing was wrong. I told them sugar makes me sick and they told me to avoid it then I mentioned I can’t do fruit but eat white rice. They told me I was sensitive to sugar but fail to understand that glucose in white rice is sugar! My pcp said white rice was better for me and I should avoid red meat! When I first had my flare up they told me to eat the brat diet which is banana, rice, apples, toast… that baffles me because all the foods in brat diet cause IBD and other array of problems. 🤦♂️ Drs are so ill informed on nutrition.
You must keep in mind that doctors are just like garage mechanics or any other businessman. In order to make more money they will keep telling you something is wrong. Nothing proves this more than the 'plandemic' and doctors pushing the masks and vax. I was on high cholesterol and blood pressure medicine. Went KETO and in one year was off everything plus my dry skin cleared up. My doctor said whatever you are doing keep it up. I said well, I'm not listening to your advise. They make money prescribing meds and useless office visits. I remember the day when they came to your house. That's when they really cared about you.
Doctors generally only get one class on nutrition in their whole academic life, they are not experts and rely on protocols handed down from on high, unless they specialise in nutrition but nutrition is the cinderella of medicine, no kudos.
You probably know more than your GP who is restricted by protocols.
Unfortunately theres an agenda i think. And its not a good one for your health.
The dietary guidines are all wrong on so many levels. You should do the opposite of what they recommend...
@@yvonne3903 Truth.
Doctors tend to be specialists & nutrition is a unpopular field for most doctors. They tend to go for something a little more "special" than food doctor.
Med schools were taken over by Rockefeller medicine , boards, state licensing to promote being sick , taking drugs and more surgeries
Back in the 1970s , in the military, based In NATO, with Spain being my home base. I was a made man, with all my friends being Spanish, and professional people. I was a loner who made friends wherever I went! It was a blast!
I asked my bullfighter fried why all the wealthy were lean, or even skinny, and the poor, in the small villages fat? His reply was because they couldn’t afford to eat meat, and cold only eat bread! The message was loud and clear , proven decades later. I hung out with some interesting people in Europe, and had some of the best times of my life!
Been carnivore for two years, some cheat days here and there so many things have changed, it helped me with grief, knee pain, lost weight, no more floaters in my eyes, my hair grows stupid quick and its probably twice as thick, teeth have no movement at all, also no plaque, rosacea gone, I had a 722g growth on my ovary that was removed and when they removed they found it was dead - I dont know why it was dead. I joke it was carnivore that killed it. Muscles are a m a z i n g GP was shocked at how low my triglycerides are. OMAD also.
So good to hear that you are doing well!! Interested in finding out what meat are you eating and are they organic grass fed.. thanks
Were your rosacea severe? Mine is very bad and very inflamed. How long did it take to heal?
Great.what exactly specifically do U eat on carnivore..thanks
@@davidrodgers4760 any animal, or products from animals. No fruit no vegetables very little dairy. In less the dairy is raw. Eggs are also on the Cornivore diet.
I think the growth died from lack of carbs.
I have been meat based keto for 3 years! Feel and look so much better. No more fatty liver, no more PCOS, healthy glowing skin, clear mind, stable moods, amazing sleep etc.
PCOS?

As an American I pay an asinine amount of money for healthcare and insurance. The worst part is it's all based on the foundation of outdated science and nutrition. I would gladly pay the amount of money I waste each paycheck for my insurance and the amount of money I pay for office visits if I could have someone as qualified as Dr Paul. Where do we find educated doctors that are willing to admit what they learned as the foundation of their practice is no longer true?
This is a global list of Lchf/keto doctors that keep updated with nutrition advice, apologies if it’s unable to be read (I’m a diet doctor member). Also worth joining dietdoctor just for the information library, movies, they have loads of content from low carb down under on there also
At least in the USA you have Functional doctors. I guess your insurance doesn't cover those? In the UK we have nothing but standard clueless, ignorant doctors who try to bully you into taking medication for anything. I stay away as much as possible.
@@declanwoods8791 thanks alot!
Like the 15,000.00 out of pocket and 6 years of suffering to find out from a doctor in the know that I had a hole in my semicircular canal. Ignorance kills!

Red meat, dairy and eggs - my favourite foods. All my aches and pains and bloating gone within days.
A lovely caring doctor.
This is a man of Integrity, and has the courage to talk science
Ye another great listen is Bart Kay.
Doctors don't know know science? They are not biochemists not trained to differentiate between genuine research and industry promoted advertising. They are taught about procedures and drugs, sponsored by the drug industry. It's no different to listening to some bloke in the pub
Yeah, we're lucky youtube dosen't having any ties with pharma and sugar industry otherwise we prolly wouldn't have this up on youtube.
@@richardjackson5380 wouldn't go that far. But there are quack doctors.
@@loganwolv3393 Give it time...
I'm 1 month into strict carnivore; just fatty meat and eggs.
I am otherwise perfectly healthy, don't have any health issues whatsoever.
What's happened so far :
- 5kgs dropped off me in the first 2 weeks (70kg to 65kg) with doing no exercise whatsoever; my 6 pack looks shredded
- My recurrent dandruff is completely gone
- My energy levels are amazing and constant throughout the day with no energy dips
- My mental clarity and focus is sharp as a knife
- I feel perfectly satisfied and satiated after i eat and only have to eat twice a day, sometimes just once and no desire to 'snack' on any crap
- Oh, and this random girl said "You have amazing skin!"
100% going to keep eating this way indefinitely
How are you going at 4 months in?
for dundruff i would use ketokonazol shampoo
@@Sky10811 , interesting. Instead of the meat or eggs?
I developed extreme osteoporosis at a young age ( DEXA scan ) after 10-12 years of vegeterian diet. I was so sad to be so osteoporotic ( like a 90 yo!) despite daily physical exercise dancing swimming etc.. Then I was diagnosed with SIBO. Still, no one helped me with the osteoporosis from the MD world. NO ANSWER!! Finally, I got to see a GI doctor who saved me. Thank you so much Dr Paul Mason. This is life saving information that I discovered on my own person after 15 years of struggles. I am so glad to hear it is reversible!!
How did they cure yours sibo, please? Would love to get rid of mine.
@@virgilkirschner5717 Dr. Nick Zirowsky has some videos about it, You can check it out, he even sell some products to cure ir naturally, I coundnt try them because i live in México and the shipping was rejected bye customs. i hope it helps.
It sounds like lectins and oxalates are the cause of your problems. And try serrapeptase for arthritis. It works
My wife and I also went Keto last Dec 29th and we both lost 1/3 our body weight and are both at or near our goal weights. We are now basically Omnivore /Carnivore and do 18/6 IF and FEEL GREAT ! And we are in our early 60's.
You should get those body scans to be sure your arteries and heart are ok..
Same here! Keto/carnivore has changed my life. All I did was mine the trove of info available on TH-cam while I was stuck in quarantine. Off meds, weight back to my ballet body from long ago, so much energy, no more constant hunger. I'm teetering on the brink of my 70's and I've never felt better.
@@Rain-pe8nn I got blood work done while eating mostly just beef, but also pastries, high carbs and sugar. Results were outstandingly well except for Low potassium and mild kidney renal insufficiency. Got blood work because I became dehydrated. Recently moved to high desert. Anyway, Since the blood work I completely cut all carbs and sugar. I added organic pasture raised eggs, salmon, and bone broth. I haven't eaten any veggie salads or anything like that since Sept 2019. I'll do blood work again soon.
That's awesome. I went from a 6 1/2 year vegan to keto and now mainly carnivore. I feel so much better already in a short time and losing exceeds weight I couldn't on vegan diet. I truly believe it deplated me of true health. 👍
74, carnivore, great labs.
I’ve been on the carnivore diet for 18 months now. Never felt better. All those ills and issue I’ve had for decades (I’m 66) have all gone away. No more intestinal distress, no more bloating, no more allergies, pre-diabetic completely resolved, no constipation at all. I no longer have to worry about my weight. Great way to live!
Amazing 😊
Do u drink milk or eat any dairy
Right. I just tried carnivore diet & ended up in hospital. Time for some truth here. Videos on my channel.
Day 1: 2/10 pain.
Day 2: 4/10 pain. Craving carbs. Fell off wagon & had a few mouthfuls of salad, then back on wagon again.
Day 3: 8/10 pain. Feel like I might die. Nauseous. Couldn’t eat all day until 8pm. Shakey. Feels like a temperature even though it’s not.
Day 4: 6/10 pain, general serious malaise. Can’t get out of bed almost all day- can barely walk to toilet I’m so ill- feeling extremely unwell.
Day 5 (Thurs): 5/10 general fatigue but possible to work for 10 mins at a time & possible to watch tv for 30 mins
Day 6: 1/10 constant headache, pounding behind eyes, stomach cramps with 100% pain. Eye pain at 100%, thought I might go blind, head ache at 100% thought I might drop dead, Stomach ache with 100% pain. Pain is all so bad I could not sleep or stay awake, or move. Could not work or relax. Ended up in hospital. Had to stop the carnivore diet at 9pm & eat some carbs just to make sure it’s only keto flu & not something life-threatening. Within 10 mins of eating carbs all my symptoms dropped by 90% & I was fine again.
I have a high pain threshold & don’t complain easily so this is significant.
There is no way a hunter 2 million years ago could survive with these symptoms for even a short period of time.
You are seriously addicted. You probably needed electrolytes. Gotta hang in there to get through any withdrawal. And a hunter years ago never ate the crap carb addicts eat. They thrived. We started getting sick with modern food practices. Question. Why did you start if you were fine already? That makes no sense.
@@HowDidIGet3700Subs Most people should literally be able to do a 6-day water fast without any pain. Something else was going on here; probably sodium/other electrolytes as the person above me said.
Great Video. Thank you so much - I am Italian doing almost 100% a carnivore diet for 2 years and my pain in my knees is completely gone.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge im a 3 year carnivore was500lbs now 220 goal is 200 you made complete sense and validate my personal observations.
Diet diabetes gone back injury disappeared traumatic brain
Nerve damage recovery sharp sharp memory and recall.
WOW!
those are all words
Holy crap... you should do a vlog or something f
Deep respect
LOVE IT, Great work!
The only time I have lost weight, lost hunger in my life . Thanks for MD getting educated and teaching us
Hands down one of the best interviews and guests on! Dr. Paul Mason explains everything so nicely and wonderfully! Bring him back on! Thank you!
Dr. Paul Mason is a very intelligent, articulate and kind person, I love him for these qualities, it is a priviledge to listen and learn from him, he doesn't need much questions asked and is a great presenter of intricate information when allowed to talk.
(ps: I do not know him, I live in another part of the world but admire him and would like him on as a regular, what a woderfull person)
I’ve never heard a guest on a podcast be interrupted as much as in this episode. Let the man talk!
I had chronic lower back pain (over 7 years). 4 days into my carnivore diet, I wake up, and the back pain was gone...
same took me about 1 week, such a relief. I wish I would have known about carnivore many years ago, would have saved myself a lot of pain.
I don’t get all the whining about the interviewer. I see/hear an interesting conversation between a very interested layperson and an extremely informed professional. The atmosphere is friendly and curious, calm but enthusiastic. I thoroughly enjoyed this!
In case some of you missed it: high animal protein intake has been shown to reverse osteoporosis in post-menopausal women.
Yay, thank you! Osteo is horrible
the problem is how the animals are raised commercially with hormones and gmo grains fed to animals, that is why even meats sold in the stores are not healthy either. Maybe Australia is doing better than USA.
That's good to know!!
People consuming have higher higher rates of osteoporosis. Eating greens are a much better source of calcium.
@@murraybrockway6540 lolol!!!
Dr Paul Mason, Dr Bikman, Prof Noakes make me binge watching their podcasts because they are so brilliant in their knowledge and how they passionately deliver to the public through the internet the informations about science! I am so blessed to be able to get all those valuable information for free! Thank you🙏🏽🙏🏽
I went carnivore for autoimmune disease. Of course I don’t know the long term effects that it will have on my body but I can tell you in 10 years of painful autoimmune symptoms, I finally felt relief. I tried being vegan for three months and it was impossible. I have celiac so no gluten whatsoever. Gluten is the most common thing used to replace meat like texture in plant based foods so don’t tell me it’s healthier than a meat based diet.
Try millet like kodo, foxtail, browntop...
I've gone carnivore to fight ME/CFS which seems to be an autoimmune disease. If I may ask, hows progress been?
"Gluten is the most common thing used to replace meat like texture in plant based foods". I am glad you are feeling better but maybe it was just the gluten and not the vegan diet that failed you. God bless.
I just recently found out that gluten intolerance is often a zinc deficiency.
To marissa I developed gluten issues in my 20s. Then had to start monitoring what i eat even more, since many additives in foods caused issues, like severe headaches and foggy head. So after 14 years of crossing veggie stuff off one by one, everything besides meat seemingly, gave me headaches and chronic fatigue. So everyone here trying to help and telling you to replace one problematic grain with some other. that is not helping. You helpers maube try the 30 day carnivore challenge, and then come and comment. I tried the veggie diet, everything to get my health to super - and everything i was told by the mass media, brought me here, where i finally feel absolitely my best, i have no daily headaches, migraines, chronic pain. Meat is the only thing that contains irreplacable stuff (aminoacids). By day 26 on carnivore, i was free from all anxiety and depression. So please, all the helpers, replace all your veggie stuff with meat, for minimum 30 days. All the best to you all and to Marissa too!
Dr Mason is amazing! He opened my eyes When he explained the ALT and how markers are based on 95% of the people which the majority of people are not metabolically fit,therefore, those numbers are skewed! Just love this man!
Yes, a light bulb moment!
@@divinediva_ Super light bulb moment. In my last physical everything was in range and I felt proud of that fact. Now I need to go back and look how far skewed from the mean I am.
I am especially so impressed by LDL discussion… My diet mainly dependents on animal products since my early ages and have slightly high LDLs since my 20s. I had no digestive issues despite my family has a genetic tendency. I had no vitamin deficiencies no chronic disease no significant issues with my health. As a biologist I also believe we started as carnivore and evolved to omnivore in order to stay alive on plants in the lack of animal resources. We have canine teeth and one piece stomach as a base. our jaw, teeth and intestines had changed so that we can survive but in any case we cannot digest cellulose which is the main sugar in plants and we cannot tolerate lectins.
Wow so interesting, thank you
APO-B. Don't ignore it. This fool in the video ignores APB-B.
Forget big fluffy LDL-P because the science says they are all bad when the numbers are highly elevated.
Saturated fat is good for you in small doses because it helps absorb the vitamins. But a lot of It raises LDL-P.
Depending on the person it can be much much higher or not as high.
The same goes for dietary cholesterol. Most people will not see any difference in cholesterol levels with dietary cholesterol. But there are about 20% on each side that are hypo absorbers and hyper absorbers. Hypo absorbers can eat as much as they like and it won't make a blind bit of difference . Where hyper absorbers have to be a lot more careful with their cholesterol intake. There is a test that you can have to check for the specific genes.
Go easy on the meat and dairy
Always get the full fat instead of low fat but go easy on it.
It's all bullshit that high LDL is OK.
The biggest VLDL is around 80nm. The so called big fluffy LDL is much much smaller. Anything under 70nm can make its way into the walls of your arteries.
The science says the number of LDL-P matters and not the size.
Yes smaller is worse but they are all risky.
You only have to look at the comments on all the keto TH-cam videos to see LDL rocketing is the number 1 concern for a lot of people on a keto diet. Do not fall into this bullshit trap that it's ok because it's big and fluffy. There is no reason whatsoever to be in constant Ketosis. eat some unrefined carbs like porridge in the morning with some almond butter in it. It's common sense to have a balance of everything . Check out what Lipidoligist Thomas Daysping says about Cholesterol. He is an expert in Lipids and ignore this flat earther mentality. The BIG problem with a keto diet in the over consumption of saturated fat. The saturated fat is abused and because people are seeing good results they thinks it's because of the saturated fat. Problem is their APO-B is sky rocketing and they are not even aware of how risky this is.
One last thing. People say oh but I got a calcium score and it was 0. Well a calcium score won't show soft plaque. You would only know if you have advanced atherosclerosis.
This fella is totally arrogant. He calls himself Dr but tells you your Dr is clueless, and he totally ignores what the latest science is saying. Non HDL and APO-B are better predictors of risk than Triglyceride/HDL. Stop playing Russian roulette with people's lipids.
Yes brilliant
Don't interpret results by comparing your lab results to those of "most people" because most people are NOT healthy! Compare to optimal amounts & ratios
idc what my LDL is or any of my other lipids for that matter. if your eating the proper human diet, your body will make whatever it needs, I find it amusing that modern man thinks we are so smart that we can outsmart millions of years of evolution.
This guy is so good. I've listened to a number of people speak on the same subject which has been a real eye opener. My word; haven't we been misled????
Much more than most are capable of comprehending. We fought the wrong people, now we pay the price
YES!
I went beef only to cure autoimmune (hashis, psoriasis and IBS) - it worked. After two years of eating beef only, no more autoimmune issues at all. Now I have relaxed a bit and eat a raspberry trifle a day (cream, custard and jelly) as well as my beef - no return of autoimmune.
Pretty sure that rice, poatoes, wheat etc etc even wholefood would bring it back (lectins, gluten, oils - one or all of them). OR OR I have cured a leaky or inflammed gut with beef only for two years .....
Mason - my favourite doctor, the answer for good health, - so articulate as are most Aussies.
He’s a Kiwi
He’s wonderful. I want him to move to Melbourne to be my doctor 😂
Did you not want to introduce certain foods you used to like one at a time to see how it would effect you??
Martin, You're basically at the beginning of a GREAT Elimination Diet where you'd bring back elements one at a time to find the culprit(s). I wonder what causes autoimmune for people.... Pulses as canned or not? All legumes or just a few? Nightshades? Just the Anthocyanins? Rancid oils that food was cooked in. A stiff round of antibiotics a year before you notice gut issues? Corn chips, soy, and wheat (aka cattle feed). Round Up? White rice or Black rice? Romaine is a HUGE problem for many. I'd love to hear what you find out!
@@jdmosaics Really?
Dr Paul Mason puts his knowledge across in such an accessible way. I wish the mainstream media would listen to him and stop promoting the ‘healthy plant based diet’ and ‘eating the rainbow’ and ‘healthy whole grains’. The general public are being misled about what foods are actually ‘healthy’. It’s scandalous!!!
You forgot about the “arrogance” part of medical practice. The saying, “ a fool seldomly learns from a wise man, but a wise man can learn a lot from a fool” applies. Just because someone is intelligent doesn’t mean they are wise. Wisdom comes from carefulness.
Well said, the most intelligent person I know is a doctor who's been brainwashed by allopathic medicine to the point where she is now completely stupid about health and unable to accept any evidence that contradicts her (brainwashing) training.
And the standard of care, which is dictated by big pharma and NOT drs like these guys. Thank good for the internet
@@IHBBabe call her greedy because thats what it boils down to , many docs wake up to truth and still refuse the info because that dont make money and that gets the license jerked , ALL FOR THE LOVE OF MONEY !
Wisdom comes from failure
Yes absolutely!
Drs and scientist often can’t see past the central dogma and fail to think out of the box, just apply reason or even admit they might be wrong
It’s almost the “insanity definition” doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome - eg eat the food pyramid and expect CV disease to go down.
So, unless they study cholesterol themselves, do doctors get all their info on cholesterol from the drug companies? No wonder they want to put everyone on statins.
Doctors are still practicing and preaching garbage that was taught 50 or 60 years ago...I don’t trust any of them! Ken Berry I love though!
Statins cause Alzheimer's
I used to blame doctors. But now I blame the bodies deciding medical course. Orthodoxy killing people.
@@lesliegibbons1364 Same here! I love Dr. Ken Berry, but don't trust many MD's. Strange...because my father and two uncles were practicing MD's. They just were NOT trained properly in certain subjects.
Doctors don't want to go against the standard procedures laid down by their medical authorities. It's important for them that if a patient unexpectantly dies whilst under their care, that they followed the industry recommendations, (even if those recommendations are wrong). Legally, they are still covered and don't risk losing their license to practice. Prescribing the 'correct' procedure and/or improving patient health, is secondary. This is why Doctors are still recommending statins and low fat diets, even though research now clearly shows this is quite wrong, will worsen outcomes, reduce life expectancy.
This guy is amazing, so knowledgeable and explains in an easy to understand way. Love him ❤️
I’ve been supplementing Iron for years and I’m a heavy black tea drinker (5-7 cups a day). My iron levels have been very anemic, around 8. I realized with this discussion that I’ve been shooting myself in the foot daily. No doctor has ever told me to not drink black tea. 22:00
Great interview. Dr Mason is knowledgeable and kind enough to share his knowledge with the World.
Paul you’re the best
Paul Mason is brilliant!
And looks like a kid
@@gabrielprfn And, weirdly , a very unhealthy kid who simply had no excuse for not knowing the difference between refined sugars , refined carbs , trans fats during the 90’s . Really .... that’s just ridiculous . I think he ( & all the other keto Drs ) are as extreme as the low fat extremists of the past & like to polarise the arguments . Things don’t need to be as binary as they make it . They forget we r living longer than ever before ( so something must have been working in previous nutritional advice ; use of certain meds ) . I’m a low carb , light keto IF , but I still factor in that genetics plays a part in diseases I might get in the future . Keto helps lose weight and reversing type 2 , but it’s far too extreme to extrapolate that all degenerative diseases can be controlled by diet . Let’s see, in 40-50 yrs tine whether heart disease us still a major killer as it was on low fat extreme ; if so, where does genetics come in . Balance & moderation is more imp
@@equatorialjourney4478 Well, =1 here, and my mileage varies. And I don't need to comment on Paul's appearance by way of argument. He's spot on, and has helped many people.
I am a seventy year old who has been using long term fasting once or twice a year for fifty years. I always see positive health returns. I am completely free of grains for over three years and all to the better. I am beginning a five to seven day fast with water only tomorrow. I am planning to consciously introduce more healthy animal products afterward. I am excited about the possibility of having a more balanced intake of essential nutrients and a more ketone rich blood stream. I do eat generally once a day beginning late afternoon and try to cease by seven or eight PM. I’ve been eating this way for years now so that it seems normal, and some days if I’m not hungry I simply don’t eat. I was raised in the country on a farm at a time when having your own livestock and vegetable gardening was common and was isolated from processed and fast food influx so it seemed alien and still does seem so out of touch. Keep going in your effort but don’t loose sight that we share many similar traits as a human race but each and every one of us is unique.
On carnivore (and IF) since Aug 20, have dropped from 135kg to 110kg, and at 52 still benching 55kg dumbbells no problem.
Strength still up on carnivore and if mate?
Benching is a good metric for heart disease. If you had 25kg to lose you were obese.
I just love this podcast. I keep watching it over and over. It never gets boring.
Same!

In 1903 Thomas Edison was concerned about the healthcare of his time and stated: “The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patient in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease.”
Dr Mason is a very intelligent and learned man. Profound admiration for him, and indeed all these trailblazers challenging the status quo. I believe most doctors are trying to do the best for their patients, but such a complex disease as diabetes is not always easy for the lay person to grasp, and many just want a pill to ‘fix’ it. Education needs to happen before full-blown diabetes manifests, but for many of us this doesn’t happen. I had no idea I was on the way to ttd until I was actually diagnosed with it. I’d put on a lot of weight in my very stressful job, developed high blood pressure and then high cholesterol, but no doctor thought to tell me I was pre-diabetic, so I never got the chance to avoid it. I was very disappointed.
Education should happen before diabetes, not after.
Agree Lola, but many doctors are ignorant themselves. Hope you can sort it out now with right diet and exercise, leaving stressful job & toxic people behind.
I hear this question a lot - how can you live on a keto/carnivore/low carb/vegan diet for the long term. Well for a lot of people, illness or death is a pretty good motivator. For instance, if you have Type 2 diabetes, going low to zero carb so that you get off progressively higher doses of insulin and having to constantly check your blood sugar, calculate your carb load and inject yourself, while hoping you don't over inject and have a hypoglycemic reaction (not to mention a potential future that includes amputations and heart attacks), living with a lack of food "diversity" becomes pretty sustainable.
If you're someone like Mikhaila Peterson, with severe food allergies and arthritis and a world of living your decades of you life in absolute pain and misery, and then find going strict carnivore allows you to live pain and symptom free, how hard a choice really is it. And she'll still questions of "oh but don't you miss eating normal?" Like do you miss so much pain in your body that you can't move out of bed? SMH.
Even something as simple as the Whole30 diet, which is only done for 30 days, and tv shows will have aghast nutritionist come on about how horrible it to expect people to live without sugar for a month. Yeah, motivation is a key to whether someone show do a certain diet, but to paint with a broad stroke, how can some well educated people be so dense?
Nothing tastes as good as being healthy feels.
Yap, illness and death are good motivators 🙈😂👍amen to that. Cracked me out funny👏😁
I have experienced the reduction of the inflamation in the knee (and hip joint) when I lost 10% body weight as a result of eating seriously less carbs.
As I'm listening, I'm thinking about a few people I've known, myself included, who suffered a variety of physical ailments caused by the foods we ate as well as the foods we avoided, but believing what we had been told, we doubled down on our commitment to vegetarianism, which included several foods -- especial soy -- that just made us sicker. It's like those doctors and their patients who were convinced that bloodletting was a cure, and if it didn't work, it required more bloodletting.
This is one of the BEST interviews I have ever seen! I plan to seek more TH-cam interviews with Dr. Mason...he is BRILLIANT!
In defense of the interviewer , the whole point of any 2-participant video is the communication/questionning/ brainstorming of the 2 people. The actual « discussion », back and forth is interesting. The questions posed by the interviewer may even bring out information which may not have come forth if the video had comprised solely of a monologue. (If you want to hear only Dr Mason’s voice, there are plenty of other videos to chose from.). For example, when the interviewer asked Dr Mason how to evaluate a study, how to know if the evidence is good or if it’s biased, incomplete, erroneous , as well as his interpretation of a study , I believe it was a good opportunity for Dr Mason to boost his credibility and at the same time I learned a lot from his answer to this question. I enjoyed the interview.
Sophie Point I agree! Thanks for defending the interviewer, I was just thinking same as you, and also that he's clarifying the questions in exactly the way I was asking in my own head. Love this interview! Have a great day.
I enjoyed it too, agree, I thought his questions and qualifying points added to Doc's answers.
Defending the interviewer against who? Seems like you're preemptively defending him against the criticisms that you'd expect him to get.
Thank you so much guys for doing this video. The information is beautiful and LOGICAL! I love this video. This will help everyone who watches it. Go Dr. Mason! You calmly describe the health benefits of declining carbohydrates. Love love!!!!
One of the best podcasts!!! LOVED it!!!
Both of you are so calm and articulate in delivery that made me easier understand. Thanks👍💗
I could listen to this guy for HOURS. Oh wait, I do.... 👨⚕️🧬🥩🧀
I do find it borimg to listen to Dr Saladino for any length of time. Dr Mason is endllessly fascinating!
Me too
Hahaha right? Me too!☺️
Because like most people, you like to hear good news on your bad habits but it doesnt make it true obviously. 😉
he is fascinating because he is right/correct and explains his answers so that an intelligent layperson can understand both what he is saying (his understanding of the science) and what he is advocating. To use an old American expression "I am buying what he is cooking.".
I had the worst acne when I was vegan. Went back to eating meat and cutting carbs and my skin started clearing up. I tried everything; vegan, 80-10-10, 30 bananas a day, raw till 4, gluten free, low fat, low protein, high carb, low sodium...I had the worst acne for 6yrs and had a difficult time building muscle. I had a plateau that didn't go any further. I had to switch it up.
Been there done all of those diets over 6 years then switched carnivore and never looked back.
I was vegan and then did 80 10 10… came off veganism/raw vegan insanity, went paleo and my health turned around entirely in 3 months. Went keto for years, then did carnivore. I fell off but I’m back to keto and am a big fan of carnivore. I’ll see how far I can go, cause we’re a family of boys and we don’t have much money.
@@Val.Kyrie. Dr Ken Berry has videos about how conventional meat, eggs, butter, and marine fish is way better than the SAD even if it’s not from organic grass-finished panda-massaged free-range sources. Chuck roast is an economical and versatile cut of meat. The 10 pound tubes of hamburger are an amazing buy. Large packs of conventional eggs are an amazing price when compared to steaks pound for pound. Canned salmon or frozen skin-on salmon fillets at big box stores are reasonable in price. By not buying potato chips, candy, garbage snacks, sodas, Gatorade, energy drinks, breakfast pastries, cakes, dry pasta, and all those many casserole ingredients it can be affordable.
I became extremely sick as a vegan with CFS and a host of other problems. I almost died or many times felt like I was dying. I was misled by a book about being vegan and was convinced it was healthy and spared the animals. I only got better when I went back to eating meat guides by a book on metabolic typing.. Had acne all my life but never did keto when that was going on but I know high carbs affected it. I would prefer to not eat meat but I know it's vitally important.
this is one of the most informative podcast I've watch
Just let the cows graze and let the clover grow! I laugh every spring when my neighbors complain that I let my clover take over. Then later they are amazed at how green the grass is and they don't believe me when I tell them to let the clover grow while they are poisoning the Gulf of Mexico and the fish from over fertilizing.
Yes, it is always amusing that people forget everything in nature works in cycles, death feeding life.
I am now transitioning to an all animal based diet. I drink coffee with a dash of cinnamon and coriander and lots of half and half. I have one big white onion, garlic, two delcatas (squashes), and some coconut milk in fridge. I will finish my last half box of pasta and Alfredo sauce on Columbus Day. Then it is eggs, butter, sardines, chicken, and beef for me. I expect to lose weight, eliminate arthritis, and have good blood readings by July 2021, 9 months from today.
And you will! My arthritis is all but gone after 8 months of an animal-based diet. BG is perfect. LDL is very high but trig/HDL ratio is 1.8. Never felt better.
Keep us posted!
How’s it going /are you still on the carnivore ? I have no doubt you will have lost weight, but how is the arthritis ( based on how bad it was to begin with ) . Do you miss carbs ( pasta ) & fruit
About the body stealing calcium from its bones if the diet is calcium deficit...absolutely TRUE. I have a friend who was anti-dairy, and during her pregnancy her teeth suddenly became weak and several broke into pieces. Prior to becoming pregnant, she had recently visited the dentist, had x-rays and a cleaning and her teeth were in great shape. Her body needed extra calcium to create the baby, and extracted it from her molars.
This year, I was disappointed to hear from my dentist that I have bone loss in my jaw. I hadn't gone to the dentist since 2017 and they didn't tell me I had bone loss 4 years ago.
I'd been drinking dairy milk all my life, up until 2016-2017, when I switched from dairy milk to almond milk, because I believed milk was giving me constipation, bloating and acne.
For all I know, that could have been due to eating sugar and carbs.
Now, since I'm trying to cut sugar and carbs, I'm wondering if I should go back to drinking dairy milk.
Hence the old wives folk truth that a woman loses a tooth for every child.
@@rorscach1did you add it back? I’ve heard if people have problems with milt to try A1 milk or goat milk instead
@Avril_rainne. If you ever go back to dairy, drink raw milk. The regular pasteurized stuff will make you sick.
Grass fed dairy is good for you. Lots of vitamin K that helps bones and Omega 3's.
I listened all of you from Thailand since 2018.My 6 months Keto and then 14 months carnivor live is great.Thank you.
WE have always eaten a lot of fish, and sadly, children's meals at restaurants almost always include breading which we usually picked off. My daughter at age 2-2 1/2 told the waitress "I don't want the crust. Just Kuis some lemon on it" The waitress was so impressed she gave her plain fish! We need to feed our kids better.
Outstanding. Such a crisp speaker is Dr. Mason. And so knowledgeable. Oh, to have him as my doc!
What a gift! My husband and I went on a whole food plant based diet 10 months ago because he had an episode of high blood pressure that caused confusion and the inability to process conversation or information. He was in the hospital for 3 days until his blood pressure dropped to less than 150 and held there. I cleared our house of all processed foods and cook everything from scratch using no salt. His blood pressure has remained in a good range. But we found we couldn't give up milk and butter - so it appears we were doing something right! I'm definitely going to put meat back in our diet! Thank you for such a thorough and thoughtful discussion on this subject.
I loved "better chance of dropping off the perch". God, I do love Australians, they do have such a way with words. Very interesting and illuminating interview. I am following this doctor. Can't wait for my next round of bloodwork to be done because the husband and I have been pretty strictly Keto for six months now, and we feel and look BETTER. We have no plan to ever stop, either. We're not dieting, we changed the way we eat. Period.
Aussie docs are leading the world!
Brilliant Show, this is one of the best interviewes I've seen in ages, really enjoyed it, thanks guys.
yessssssss!!! i absolutely loved the guest!!! so friendly and informational!!! i soaked up every word!! :)
Dr Mason does an excellent job of explaining in detail how and why a high carb diet has negative affects on the human body! Amazing interview!
doctors only if I end it up in ER; other than that, who needs them if we have this gentleman and others giving us lesson of integrity providing a lesson which It should have done by "our doctor" who takes our insurance. Thanks so much for that!!!!
Paul Mason & Paul Saladino are my top docs. Nice interview!
Saladino unfortunately seems to be shifting to just supporting products that he can sell. It’s unfortunate to see as he recommends how beneficial honey is yet his CGM shows that he is continuously high and low just like a person on a SAD as he is now the medical advisor for a honey Corp.
Such a shame that he turned to profits over image.
Yes sir!
Also his new found theory that carbs don’t have anything to do with insulin resistance and it’s all stearic acid. Despite mountains of evidence clearly demonstrating excessive carbohydrates contribute to insulin resistance.
@@22darius22 Yeah, I agree with him that stearic acid is bad and that seed oils have to go but that doesn't exonerate carbs.
@@bishamuesmus301 I'm not saying you're wrong but I would like to know more. Source?
Hi dr Mason, thank you sooo much for finding time for your another valuable information.
Love Paul Mason. Great interview thanks.
This is the most informative discussion I have ever heard on health. I have kept rewinding to understand these concepts. Also the Dr is super handsome.
I started carnivore diet 7 days ago and already i feel much better and have more energy, my meals are far more simple to prepare also
Lost 10lbs on my 30th day on LCHF and TRF, no exercise. Looking forward to my 60th day weigh in. My skin is now clear. My nails and hair are smooth, shiny and strong. Less skin tags. Lots of energy without coffee. I sleep and wake up better now. I will never go back to high carb and high sugar lifestyle! Thank you Low Carb Down Under! ❤Greetings from the Philippines.
I had an extended "conversation" with an "animal rights" activist/vegan not long ago. And it was this one point about how many animals and habitats are destroyed by plant agriculture. The one area that seems to make militant vegans squirm is that all those soy and grain products that make up so much of their diet are killing not just the field mice by animals of prey all up the food chain when their source of food disappears. And that doesn't even address the genetic modification for disease resistance and the pesticides that are drained into the water table. Also, as I point out to particularly evangelical vegans, world hunger can not be solved by a vegan diet. There are many untillable terrains that can't support farming but that can support animals suited those climates/terrains such as goats and other ruminants. It's a first world view that can only be embraced if you assume everyone lives a few blocks from a Whole Foods and has that kind of coin to lay down.
Vegans are not promoting soy and grain industrial agro farming production. It may they switch to foods from there because they want to reduce their immediate carbon foot print. However in the long run educated and active vegans recognise exactly what you said as the dangers of such farming practises. That being said, in a world where the majority of grain and soy are grown for animals feeds, what you said applies for for animal food consumption. Yes veganism isnt practical everywhere, it's practical in may places in the world. Locally produced seasonal plant foods with minimal damage to the environment and lowest carbon footprint.
Regarding first world, this is nonsense. In many developing countries say Asia, societies have robust local agriculture producing native fruits and vegetables. From India to Indonesia to China, no they don't need to live next to Whole foods, they have local markets with plenty of plants. What they do not need is first world dietary evangelism.
Sure some indigeneous cultures eat meat etc. I am glad to see many first world citizens use them as examples considering the the continuous threats those cultures face from Western govt and industry, sure vegans are the problem
@@highcarbwarrior1720 "Vegans are not promoting soy and grain industrial agro farming production. " They don't "promote" it, but they consume it. Their diet is made up of grains from large manufacturers (while they rage against the it's corollary, the meat industry. Difference being small ranches producing animal products humanely is a thing, supplemented by individuals who can raise chickens, goats, ducks etc on a very small bit of land. I haven't heard of a back yard movement ot grow your own grains yet.. And the big part of a vegans diet is fruit which usually gets shipped from 100s or 1000s of miles away. And this is all in the (over)developed world. There are many countries in Africa, Asia and the middle east that have heavily taxed natural resources, especially the water and soil. Have you been to Turkey, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Iraq? China is only a part of Asia. Not even sure what that last paragraph is about, was that just a copy and paste from a paper you had write? But just in case you meant to put it there: the point isn't that vegans are the problem, it's that they aren't (despite claiming it) the solution.
The Amazon rainforest is being destroyed in order to plant vast soya prairies to satisfy the the new vegan fad !!!!! Vegans and vegetarians are destroying the world ecology !!!!!
@@highcarbwarrior1720 is there any indigenous culture that DOESN’T eat meat? Who are they?
@@K4113B4113 The Vegoons of Brocconesia come to mind.
This interview is pure gold. Thanks for sharing Dr. Mason
One of my favorite doctors!! The interviewer really needs to stop interrupting and let Paul talk!
I don't mind the interview style of delivery. I find some of the stuff Paul says hard to grasp sometimes, he gets very technical, this helped a bit. lol your understanding might be more advanced than me!
Agreed that points are able to be better made without many interruptions before the punchline. Listen first, respond after.
Agree
I enjoy these talks at 2x speed, its so time saving and all message is still received. Dr Paul Mason is great teacher.
i download em fast n watch on 5x-6x (took 6 yr to understand in 5x) intially (3x max)
@@anujkumar0862 😂
Had no problem with the interviewer. Good conversation.
Agreed, this is a conversation, not a soliloquy.
Agree!
Me too. The interviewer does a great job!
Extremely good explanations to so many concepts I've been hearing lately. This video makes so much sense in relation to my health issues.
Thank you so much!
Dr Paul Mason is brilliant and brings so much information to the conversation about diet nutrition and health.
Loved this jam packed (ooops) session with Paul ... one I will definitely revisit multiple times 🥰 just loved this discussion
longer video but well worth it, great information and explanations :)
PS: There is no way you look 50 ! Great job staying healthy.
Very interesting interview. I had not seen Dr Mason before and I can say I am so glad I did keto for March 2021 but had to switch to Carnivore as I don’t do well with any carbs. I just had labs done and in just this short time I saw a huge improvement in lipids. My trig/hdl was out in space before and now it is in a healthy level. My BG is about 80 in the morning, down from 130. My weight is down 22 lbs also. You answered quite a few things I wondered about and confirmed quite a few that drs just don’t seem to comprehend. Thank you. Thank you. Going to check out a few more videos and now I have subscribed also.
I've been carnivore for 3 yrs. Never felt Better. (I'm 68 yes old - BMI 22.48, no meds, no illness).
Just started the carnivore diet. I have celiac disease and it has wreaked my body. Hoping this will improve my health so I can start a family. Plus my goal is to complete a 150 mile horse back endurance race within the next two years. I full believe no meds and good diet can fix alot.
I have celiac disease also and did carnivore for a month. Helped tremendously so good luck to you! I’m more keto now but ketovore - minimal plant foods still after trying to reintroduce foods. I can tolerate leafy greens if cooked well and mushrooms. About it still. Overall even that has been much better on my celiac symptoms. Hope it goes well 🤍
@@maryssaann try kodo and browntop millet...avoid gluten, milk products at all cost..
@@nitinsh116 Not a good idea to consume other kinds of carbs. I guess you didn’t listen to the podcast you’re commenting on ;)
So educational. Thank you for sharing the knowledge.
OMG I’m soooo excited to hear this talk. Just had to put that down, before I explode 😁
Blast off
Yeah, Im surprised, Im liking it as well.
Dr Mason is amazing!
I'm shocked that Dr.Mason doesn't believe in the benefits of autophagy. It is literally the ONLY metabolic theory that has won the Nobel Prize and intermittent fasting has changed many lives, including my own.
Yeh he's either naive or just willfully ignorant in that area.
Carnivore is fasting mimicking diet. The body is in constant autophagy like state if calorie deficit. Because ketosis
@@spiritlevelstudiosor he just love his food too much and doesn't want to fast.
I've been "Keto" for 8 years. I even coached people on it, for pay. I got into trouble with it. I extended my "allowances" so much I wasn't even really Keto anymore. Then I went more "Vegetarian" and loading a bunch of nuts into my diet, and snacking 5 times a day on them. My health crashed in so many ways that I feel I was on the verge of a catastrophic event. I was VERY sick. Started Carnivore about 2 weeks ago. My health is changing in so many ways it's almost unbelievable. Me losing 6 pounds already is just the BEGINNING of what's happened. I notice so many things changing. Literally a list of 8 improvements so far.
First time listener to either gentlemen, absolutely love the guests knowledge delivery!
Will be following both- thank you!
Been at this for a year. I've never enjoyed my meals so much. Just had a beef, pork and bacon meatloaf with garlic mayo.
I would love to know how you make the meatloaf. Sounds delicious!
Dr: "Your blood fat looks suspicious. Bad LDL/HDL ratio. I can prescribe you some statins."
Me: "Oh. No thanks. I wanna first try with diet"
Dr: "You won't be able to change it substantially with diet"
6 Months later. New blood test.
Dr: 😳
The point of epidemiology and resulting correlations and associations is supposed to be to generate new QUESTIONS and hypotheses so that interventional studies can be designed and implemented to test those hypotheses and questions. Epidemiology was never originally intended to generate conclusions, but that is what food companies and the media love to do nowadays. Any time someone tells me "meat is associated with this or that problem" I say "Yes, and Firefighters are associated with fires."
I’m stealing that response 😂
The medical model in the U.S. is the same as in Australia. There is NO focus on nutrition at all. And in regard to what was mentioned about de-prescribing, I have had to do this completely on my own. I now eat a ketovore diet, mostly meat as well. So I basically took myself off of a statin drug - Atorvastatin (Lipitor), and have been tapering myself off of Gabapentin, Klonopin, and Trazadone. Hasn't been the easiest thing, but I'm determined. My doctor doesn't mind that I'm doing this, but he certainly doesn't encourage it! If we don't take our health into our own hands, we will continue to get sicker, and the doctors here certainly aren't going to do anything more than keep adding prescriptions.
Very informative. To the interviewer: STOP INTERRUPTING.
Loved this conversation! Thank you so much!
I very much appreciated this video. I went to a place they call "Lifeline Screening" where they did many medical tests for me. At the time I went, I had been Keto for about 16 months ( and had lost about 65 lbs). So, according to these tests, I have no concern for Aortic Aneurism, A-fib, various circulatory issues, bone loss issues... my biggest 'question' for health risk was that I was still about 70 lbs overweight. But when they did the blood test for my cholesterol... the technician looked at my numbers and said to me, "I have to re-do the test because these numbers don't make sense." I asked her, "what are you seeing?" It said that my main number of cholesterol was slightly high (I think it was about 225). My HDL was quite high and my triglycerides WOULD NOT READ... as it was too low, meaning, below 50. I told her, "oh yeah, I expected that... It's the Keto diet." So she did the test again anyway, and got the SAME result... LOL. I love it!!
A really great informative discussion, much appreciated, thank you both.
Great interview. Dr Paul's presentations have helped me so much. Avoiding the leptins with a Hashimoto's condition really does help. Combined with very low carbs = a winning combination.
I think you mean to avoid the Lectins, not leptin. Two different words and meanings.
That’s good to hear! I tested positive for hashimotos antibodies.., as well as a partial thyroidectomy due to papillary microcarcinoma ... so it’s nice to hear diet can help with my situation
I am in my second week of carnivorous journey my plan is to stay for a month and evaluate. I am Hashimoto/more thyroid. I need a sustainable lifestyle so hoping this is it. In my second week I am feeling fatigue anyone can suggest why and a fix? The regular diet makes me gassy but no gas since I started the carnivore. I am loving NO GAS.
So informative, will have to listen to this again, taking notes. Thanks.
So easy to listen to,he can explain complex information in an easy to absorb manner, great interview!
Always enjoy hearing Dr.Paul Mason. Good conversation.
Great talk 1000% ! SO much good information was taken from here. Thank you for the talk
Absolutely love Dr Mason. So intelligent, interesting and easy to understand.
