Well, she named soft cheeses - they are high fodmap. Sparkling water (flavored or not) causes digestive problems. "Sweeteners - obvious. Farmed seafood - obvious. seasoning - obvious. Iced drinks obvious.
Never bury the lead! I appreciate chapter notes. Why not state the elements clearly. You lose more views burying the lead than setting expectations. Bait your viewers with the "why" not the "what".
Thank you for all your videos. I started carnivore about 3 weeks ago and have used your videos a lot. They are very helpful. Lost 12 lbs so far. I have been handicapped for the last 10 years. So exercise is out of the question. But feeling much better already. I started at 369 lbs , I’ll let you know in a few months where I’m at. I’m finding that anything other than beef tends to leaving me craving other foods. So I’m torn whether to go beef and butter exclusively or keeping the extra meats and cheeses . Not there yet. Blood sugar has dropped 70 points. Happy. Keep up the awesome work.
I'm a former vegetarian for 25 years. I at a point went back to meat, then back to being a vegetarian. I have tried various diets throughout my life to keep my weight down. I had a decent transformation with being a vegetarian, but unfortunately, it no longer serves me. I became very weak and gained weight. My weight sky rocked after turning 50 years young. I knew I had to make a serious change, and I finally looked up a diet called the blood type diet. This Blood Type Diet led me to Carnivore way of eating. I realized that all my inflammation and foggy, tired all the time, had everything to do with the fuel I was ingesting. I decided to test the Carnivore Diet even though I was so big on being vegetarianism. This video explained so much of all I had been dealing with as I've made the change. This is an excellent source of information, and you express it all so clearly. I feel much better about my Steak and Butter Life. A lot of what you shared was a confirmation to feelings about all those detsiles from the pepper, salt, cold water, etc. Your videos are so appreciated, Thank you.
May I ask what’s your blood type? I’ve been on vegan diet and other diets but girl this blood type diet I feel a lot better because I’m B and I love steak and butter
I'm also curious about eating for blood type because my blood type "supposedly" does fine on vegetarian diet and i do feel better when I include some plant protein 🤔 (good quality organic)
Blood type diet saved my life and explained exactly why I was struggling with everything I ate and was always ill and obese ( having never been an overeater!). Books by Dr.Peter J. D'Amato; Eat Right for your Type and Live Right for Your Type. O- we are mainly only able to eat mostly carnivore. Down over 100lbs having eliminated Wheat, corn, ( pasta, bread, sugar).
Growing up in Germany, we never even had ice cubes. My mom said that it is unhealthy for your stomach to drink cold beverages and it could even lead to a sore throat. Tea was always warm and mineral water sat on the counter for us to drink at room temperature.
I can see this diet and necessary adjustments work very well for you, so this is very encouraging to share with others. Congratulations on your successful channel and many thanks for the 1000’s of lives you’re helping and probably saving! Awesome! 👏
My nose has been clogged for 20 years, 10 days carnivore nose is final clear. Same issue with eczema and cleared up too. Hopefully I can be a carnivore for life
Sounds like an allergy or autoimmune. It makes sense when you think about things we eat can contain allergen's and histamines. By cutting out the ones you are eating it lowers your general allergy response allowing your body to better relax and not sweat over the ones you might be breathing in. Moving or going on vacation in another country could greatly affect this response I am wondering if you have had such an experience.
@@jlozano2615it's not the Asian thing only. For example, US is the only country where beer is being consumed ice cold. Americans are obsessed with drinking their cold drinks loaded in ice. No judgement from me, I don't care how other people eat or drink. But to say that it's only Asian thing is not correct
I have to thank you. I started about 2 weeks ago and already lost 11 kg. You were the person who convinced me to try. I'm ill, and academic medicine can't help me. Some crap is "eating me," and my doctors don't know what's going on, me either. So that was the motor to try it out. Right now I eat only beef and butter. I was skeptical at first, but after 3rd day, I feel I was like a hangover and run by a train. I'm a IT guy so i was rly hard to convince me without eevidance, but you did it! THAAAAANK YOU! Greetings from Poland!!!
Carnivore is great! Now look into parasite cleansing. It's a shock, at first, that we have parasites--but they are responsible for most of our health issues and, especially, food intolerances. I think parasite cleansing while on carnivore could completely restore your health.
I drink iced water but only in summer. Our summers are insanely hot and humid and iced water really goes down well and adds to easing the discomfort from the weather.
Bella, I am 3 years in on Carnivore and I've been watching you since I started. I've been walking a few steps behind you the whole way and agree with everything on this list! Thank you for everything! 💖
i love you and your content so much!!! i am a former vegan, i felt that comment where you said you have an addictive personality. i am struggling through sugar withdrawals and i felt that comment so much! its hard to imagine life without any sweeteners again like stevia even.but i think you def bring up valid points
Use a really good organic stevia or some alilos. At first you'll likely find within a few months that your taste for it goes away or you can do without it without a struggle.
I have begun watching your content and am becoming very interested because you are quite literally GLOWING with health. The way you look really speaks for itself on what you speak on.
This is one of your greatest videos so far!! Thanks. This is going in my favorites to send to my friends starting on carnivore. You covered so many important points and they were all true!! Loved it!
Awesome video...unfortunately, I have priced ALL the Carnivore products marketed by you and others like Sitka Seafood $350 for a box, meat chips are $40 for a bag for munchies or these ready made meals... as a pensioner on a budget, pushing these product sponsors just turns me off... Carnivore clean eating tips and your 11 meals every week is a stellar help! Thank you .
Oh Bella.... I've been 9 months into this carnivore diet and I took away cow cheese and eating only goat and sheep... My rosacea and stomach doesn't go well with cow cheese... Butter I take a bit while cooking. I experiences with some fruits. Tried some apples and my whole stomach HURT so bad... I ate some pancakes.. I think I ate 4 times in 9 months, while out with friends. One thing I noticed is honey. I react very good to it... But need to be careful how much I indulge in it. I hope one day I'll be able to let go. My family and friends thinks I'm crazy but I do have some people who gets it... Because they see the result on me. Stay safe and hope you're dad is better. Thank you again for the content you do. Sugar addiction is real... It's so hard to fight that urge of wanting to feast on that stuff...
I used to eat several apples a day before going mostly carnivore. I loved the laxative effect but after being mostly carnivore for a few months, I seem to have an allergy to them. It sucks because I need that bowel movement everyday otherwise I feel constipated. I can still eat and do eat blueberries everyday but it doesn’t do the same for bowel movement.
@@lilolmecj interesting. Cooking apples could neutralize whatever I am allergic to. I break out to sugar so it may be the sugar in it. I may try to cook it to see if it’s the sugar or the apple. Apples are low in oxalate and anti nutrients. But I am getting better at not having bowel movements everyday so may not need to eat any apples.
Hi Bella - you taught me to start my healthy lifestyle, and this is where it stands: grass-fed and grass-grazed beef, animal farm eggs direct from the farm knowing the Farmer & homemade ghee. Keep it minimal. Include again only farm direct greens from a farmer you know. This is the best way for me ....I also suggest seasonal fruits like strawberries (spring) & blueberries (summer) you visit the farm direct and pick yourself. Be careful of grocery stores. Yoga and exercise are essential to maintain discipline. Good luck!
I started more carnivore today. This morning I had a 12 oz rib eye steak along with avocado and coffee with hwc. Colleagues at work were shocked that I ate steak for breakfast because they say steak is dinner meal, not breakfast. They then told me I need to eat sausage biscuits instead. I told them - not for this diabetic.
Thanks for all this great information! I'm just beginning carnivore. Made it about 6 days last week, keep getting off. Need to get comfortable staying with it so I can heal all my health issues. Thanks for the helpful videos.
About 7 wks in on carnivore and don’t do well with cheese/dairy. I haven’t tried raw dairy. May give them a try once I’m further down the magical meaty road. RA symptoms have diminished so much I’m off all RA meds! This is a miracle to me! I was suffering greatly while on these meds, none worked and they made me feel awful. I feel wonderful now and will never go back to the SAD diet!
@@abudhabiwitch5144 Good luck and be careful of fiber. It feeds strains of P.Copri that are highly prevalent in people with RA, and strongly correlated with RA.
I liked and subscribed the second you mentioned oxalate and inflammation. This tells me your journey and experience are nuanced. I am not quite carnivore, as I have only a month ago given up processed foods, junk, most carbs and refined sugars (of course, being of Chinese descent, we are programmed to eat white rice) but I am simplifying and eliminating even whole foods as I go along- especially high oxalate 'superfoods'. I am on a quest for health and minimalization of inflammation through diet and will lean on the knowledge of people like you to help me navigate through the treacherous waters of the standard North American diet.
You definitely are benefiting from your diet, because your skin looks extremely healthy. I understand you use a skin care regimen from having watched previous videos. Still though, there's only so much skin care products can do. This is why I share your channel with anyone I believe would benefit from the information you share. Thank you for your efforts in sharing. It's great that you are also sharing the information on drinking liquids at room temperature or warmer because I learned years ago from a friend that when you ingest cold, iced liquids; your stomach has to work to warm those liquids up in order to use them. I still drink cooled liquids, but not often.
She is the only youtuber that wear makeup on videos. Bcause she dont like the simplicity of carnivore diet: BEEF SALT WATER. Maybe after confusion none of people will buy her awesome carnivore support blah-blah talk. Just stick to basic as we all do, and you WILL have awesome glowing skin.
You rock Been carnivore since 7/17/23. Down 28 pounds, at 8% body fat, lowered BP to 117/70 from 130/85, improved energy levels, and greatly reduced inflammatory conditions. NEVER GOING BACK Thanks for the motivation
I started off eating only steak and tallow. At first I felt great, but after month 3, I felt like I had too much energy… wired, edgy, and kind of aggressive honestly! I now drink about 2 cups of raw milk and 2 cups of kefir a day and feel MUCH better, calm and nourished.
@@dmmcmah1 still, it is what's best for her. The best thing is to react to what you experience in your own skin, rather than blindly follow what some others dictate is correct. That's the main fallacy of veganism in my opinion. That you have to adhere to external rules and values. Body knows best, once addiction has cleared up.
@@ruthanna4713 Not dictating anything - I said "too many carbs for lots of people" - I didn't say ALL people. I am not a dietary militant and eat some vegetables and even occasionally things like fried chicken although I am "ketovore" most of the time.
And that may change. Just keep listen ing to your body. We all have different maladies and issues in our bodies to heal. Best wishes to you! Keep doing what you’re doing as long as it works!!❤
I have been on the lion diet for almost 30 days eating omad. I was already keto for 4 years and it was no longer working for me. I didn't think I would have keto flu but the first 4 days were awful, had so much congestion and was coughing so much from long covid.I had long covid for 2 years and thought carnivore would help, I tried everything else. After the first 4 days my keto flu went away and I can breath through my nose for the first time in my life (I'm 70).Some of my other symptoms are getting better. I hope this eventually heals me so I can breath again and my heart palpitations stop. Love your videos.
I have fallen off the carnivore diet temporarily, the holidays were too tempting. Plan to start again right after Christmas. My breathing is still better but I'm somewhat congested, regained 20 lbs already. I started taking glycine and have not had any leg cramps at all which is unheard of for me.
Great video!! Thank you, I hit day 30 yesturday and am loving it. I’m loving not limiting and restricting myself, I am the happiest I’ve ever been when it comes to food. Food and I now have a very healthy relationship ❤
Just started 2 days in. The headaches suck and I learned from watching you today that cooking my eggs in the butter and bacon fat is what is making me nauseous and to slow down and eat it cold. Thank you for that!
Day 7 on carnivore just got over the keto flu that was BRUTAL! 😂 but now I’m feeling so energized I noticed my body has become more sensitive to caffeine , maybe because my body is already become very energetic 😳 and Bella about the cold water I THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY! It seems that room temp water my body absorbs a lot faster and I feel more hydrated
I got that too. I had it for the first 3 weeks I was on the diet and I got so sick I finally had to quit. I lost weight but oddly enough I was in pain from head to toe. Every joint in my body caused agonizing pain to the point that I would break down sobbing and then my ankles swelled up so much, they were huge plus I head an unrelenting headache that never went away the entire time! That was a year ago and now I want to start back but I keep thinking of quality of life. Will a life without one piece of bread, one piece of cake or pasta be worth all the benefits? My answer is still no, I just can’t do it. Parties and gatherings or dinners with friends or family would feel so hollow or like a dull drudgery that yielded no pleasure knowing bread or dessert is off the table forever. As I mentioned earlier, I had that flu you talked about and after collapsing at my friends home I’m still terrified to try it again because I don’t ever want to feel that sick, weak and in pain again. I have so much respect and admiration for those who have mastered this lifestyle and have the strength to sacrifice so much pleasure. It takes INDOMITABLE will power. I genuinely envy those who are able to give up all carbs.
@@benicio1967 It's not just will power, but method. You can gradually reduce your carbs. Cold turkey is great if you have the will and know what you're doing. 3 Weeks of inflammation means you were consuming something that you were anergic to (most store bought animal products are grain fed) as well as poor salt/electrolyte/potassium intake. Go slow until you pass go.
Everyone who craves something milky / refreshing should try homemade kefir. Thats the only milk based drink i drink daily in my carnivore diet, after only eating meat for the first 2 months to adjust better. For me it just hits this spot of being sooo refreshing and sour, that it helps against possible cravings a ton.
I love raw milk. We get some from a local farm. I crave it and just can't imagine being without it now. I had kefir for over a year and would make my own but the strong taste was rough to swallow. I could only use it in my banana raw cacao nice crea..
Many year ago my dad got me drinking things at room temperature. I also cut salt out almost completely, over 20 years ago but i had been having horrible cramping for many years undiagnosed. Well when i started the carnivore this summer i realized it's probably all been from the lack of sodium. So I've added it back in and voila no more cramping.
Being from Spain, we never used ice. This ‘habit’ has moved down to my son and he too only drinks water at room temperature. He doesn’t really drink other daily beverages.
Still gaining weight, but I'm okay with it because of your story! At work we celebrated a safety milestone, so they provided a steak and eggs breakfast! The ribeye was delicious, but I ended up having a reaction to the seasoning. You live and you learn, you win some and you loose some!
That’s what I’ve noticed eating restaurant prepared steaks (likely tenderizing ingredients), also ‘pre-seasoned’ steaks from grocer to take home & cook.
1. Thanks, Bella! 🙏 2. When is your next performance in the Seattle area? 3. I’m in Mount Vernon. 4. Carnivore 2 months now! 🥩♥️ 5. Butter, Eggs, Beef Tallow, Ribeye, Salt. 🧈🥚🐄🧂 6. Room-temperature Seltzer (2 liters per day) 7. I love A2 yogurt, but I can’t eat cheese. (GERD)
very interesting about the iced/chilled beverages My husband drinks his water at room temperature because he says he enjoys it more when it’s not from the fridge.
@@judymurray191I can’t stand room temperature water. It makes me want to gag and I don’t drink as much as I should. I drink hot tea but I also drink iced tea and cold water. Especially when you live in a place that the temps get up to 100+ in the summer.
Wow, very surprised about the salt aspect. I'll have to keep that in mind. Also didn't know cold drinks could have a negative effect. Very good info here, thanks!
Re: Black pepper. The amount used for seasoning is so small that the oxylates consumed are negligible. One the other hand, black pepper is highly beneficial as it helps the body to absorb nutrients and vitamins. So don’t worry about black pepper. Its benefits far outweigh any imagined negative effect.
It’s understandable that you wouldn’t like “game” meat . I grew up on wild meat of all kinds and I love it!! I have a challenge getting what I grew up now though- thanks for all you do-you’re so inspiring!!
70 y/o here. I started carnivore 1 week ago today. I am a new person, and I am not consuming anything on your list. I have had sinus/nasal congestion for years and years. Guess what...without pepper that is gone!! Totally gone. I feel like a new person.
Love your info! Just a sidebar, it's better for hubby to be to take his meals out of the plastic containers and heat them on a regular dinner plate (non plastic). You two a so adorable.
I really love your videos, and I am so proud of you for being so self aware and committed to taking care of yourself. I realize that I have several of the same issues that you have, however, I also see several differences. I really just wanted to say, "YOU GO GIRL!"
I love braunschweiger. You are not eating lamb. You are having old mutton. I raise Shetland sheep. They are not gamey. The meat is very delicate and subtle. They are harvested off organic pasture raised and at a young age. Love your channel. I am about 3 weeks into carnivore. Been doing keto some prior. 76 years old. Will be interesting to see how I do. Love the help you give to us
For some Lamb and Venison are acquired tastes. But I agree with you. Personally I like old mutton. It’s not as bland as beef. 3 mo the in, how is your carnivore journey coming along?
Thanks for this! I just started carnivore this week and it’s going great so far. I’m finding omad is sufficient for me right now. I was just laid off work last week, so now I can concentrate on getting my health on track and pursuing my hobbies 🙂 I can’t eat organ meats, no matter how much bacon and gravy you put in it, just tastes too rich
Thanks for doing these. I think I have a sensitive system like you. Overeating dairy is what I am pretty sure flared up some sinus issues for me and I’m looking into too much salt being the cause of some queeziness I’ve had lately. Appreciate you keeping it real with your experience!
I'm really surprised about the cold water. I drank room temperature water for decades before going Carnivore 21 months ago. Suddenly I craved cold water. It has to be cold! When I say cold I mean freezing. The more ice the better. And the same thing happened to my wife. I'm just going to keep listening to my body but you gave me something to think about.
A divine appointment to find your video first thing this morning as I’m sipping my coffee since meal yesterday was a block of Gorgonzola cheese just as pictured here as soon as your video started! 😂 Funny thing is, I already knew even before eating it and this only confirms it! I am new to carnivore diet only one week in ! So thank you ❤
Great video Bella! I find that eating liver at least weekly is highly beneficial to my body. Otherwise, I am always eating ground beef or Rib Eyes with eggs.
I actually like the taste of liver, which surprised me. I soak it overnight in broth and cook it in butter. I could never eat it raw. It's gross before cooking it.
@@teresamarrero2461 I buy the rotisserie chickens at Sams and use a crock pot to make broth with the bones and left over meat. It's not 100% good because of the seasonals and God only knows what else they put in and on the chickens, but it works and for cheap $5. I cut up the meat and usually use it in my scrambled eggs. I get a lot for the $5.
When I first started on the phd I was adding unbelievable amounts of salt to my food and now, 4-5 months in I hardly ever add any salt. I didn't even realize that I had stopped until I heard you mention it. But, that's the beauty of the phd, you listen to your body. Obviously it needed that salt before but now that need has passed and I don't even think about it.
Organs? i thought you played the violin wakawaka. Honestly. thank you for sharing i have just started cold turkey for 2 months now and your video saying dont do it that way. well 2 months late for me to find you channel but the tips you give on that video helped me realize the changes my body was going thru wasn’t just me. thank you so much for this channel.
Yeah the second part with the farmed fish got me, here we have a lot of farmed salmon, the thing is that the fish is fed with fish from the Baltic Sea, the most polluted sea in Europe. Hence even fish sellers at times warn you about eating to much of it and tell you not to consume it as a child or during pregnancy..
Good to hear your experiences and know that everyone is different, so if I notice any of these things I know it's not the carnivore diet per se and not to give it up! Thanks 👍🏼
Why do some people think they have to correct others publicly? REALLY who cares other than you? NO ONE. We are here for Carnivore life style not for Grammer and punctuation!
@@melindafridrichmoring1132 Knowledge and more truth other fiction and misinformation is always welcome.... Why do you think people are searching for diets and nutrition alternative from the "standard" dietary and nutrition advice???

I'm So Grateful for this channel. I hope she never tires of helping us even 5 years out. Thank You Bella! #steakandbuttergang #Carnivore #guidance #Bella #Grateful
I DON'T like liver (so far...); I LOVE hearts; I haven't tried kidneys...BUT: for me, they've got to be COOKED. I'll have to see about kidneys, AND COD liver, which I've not tried yet ...the liver I tried was beef, chicken and lamb liver. You are not afraid to experiment, Ms Steak and butter gal. I appreciate your fearlessness - it sets a great example. Stay awesome !
40 years carnivore but I eat cheese and yogurt daily. The cheese I buy in the store but I ferment the yogurt myself. I am not sure what brain fog and bloating is though. I took care of my parents for almost 10 years so stress eating is familiar to me. I could put away 8 ounces of cheddar/gouda cheese and 4 pounds of beef daily. Wild seafood is accessible here either from fishermen or you catch your own. Iguana is a great wild caught food as well. I drink iced water all of the time. Never coffee or even carbonated water. Eating raw liver was something I did and I still eat it at times. Lean meats are awful and I prefer fresh killed to aged.
Thanks for posting all your wonderful videos. I started carnivore over a month ago and noticed my inflammation has gone way down. I have been cheating a bit lately and have noticed aches and pains coming back. It's interesting that you mention pepper giving you problems. I will have to try cutting that out.
Interesting knowledge about tempered water. I will definitely try it out cause I drink a lot of fridges-cold water. If your mom told you more of the same, perhaps you could share it with us ?
I was a cheese addict, I've experienced the symptoms you've mentioned eating pasteurized cheese. All of it went away since I've started carnivore diet. I've been trimming down and mental focus, energy is simply amazing. Also, one ingredient was still leaving me a bit lethargic and I soon realized it must be the salt. I've since minimized it and whatddaya know...thank you for this info...simply awesome 👌
I love the info, documented results, and explanations. I'm considering trying carnivore to lose my visceral fat. But for afterward, I'm struggling with trying to reconcile this with the way people eat in the Blue Zones. It's said they eat about 10% less meat than average Americans, and they eat whole grains, tubers, plants and beans. SB-Gal, I'd be interested in your thoughts about that? TIA
You may wish to look up video with Nutritionist Mary Ruddick.. she traveled and LIVED in all blue zones.. and debunked the movie, book, etc.. they eat meat, organs, etc
Bella, invest in a meat slicer and a dehydrator. Make your own carnivore crisps. Use eye of round and slice it. Leave fat attached. They are awesome. The slicer opens up so many ways to change up your meal plans. I just recently started using a meat slicer myself. Thanks for all the videos. 🎉🎉🎉
No need to do the extra work of making from scratch as her budget clearly allows for the pre-made snacks & yes that’s the way to go if ur trying to or need to save money in ur budget
I got an electric meat slicer for Christmas, and since I’ve been out of town until today, I’ve already got my meat ready to slice and dehydrate tomorrow, I’m so excited.
Hi SBG - I really appreciate this video. Organ meats or aged (or any) lamb I can't swallow. Even though I'm only on day 6 and have been consuming dairy and cheese, I completely agree with your list and react the same to the pasteurized dairy so I appreciate the cheese suggestion. Day 5 was brutal, I felt like I had a bad hangover and got run over by something. Farmed seafood ("Frankenfood") is good for nobody. What I am consuming is a far cry from the sugar and carbs which became my "vice" foods. I do make my own almond milk using a little stevia and also chicken or turkey thigh (bone-in) soup for me and the cat which is the best source of collagen, I feel, instead of buying a supplement. Thank you so much ❤
So here is something really annoying. I did about a year of Carnivore from late 2021 - late 2022 and I found it amazing. I lost the weight I medically needed to lose, 85lbs in total, my snoring went away, no longer pre-diabetic and all the other usual benefits of the diet. Of course 2023 rolled around and things went to hell for me and I came off the diet. Weight went back up, almost 50lbs now, and snoring is back also. I decided a few weeks ago to go back on carnivore because things have calmed down but this time I decided to do much more research and be more specific and hopefully more successful in staying on it. The one thing I had noticed the first time was my lack of snack options. I work in retail and we only get very short breaks so eating a full meal is almost never an option. I of course ended up on the cold meats every time. It worked but boy was it boring and hard. I searched and searched for suitable snacks and found nothing. The annoying part I mentioned is that I live in Ireland! Now this is a country with some of the best beef and ham on earth, so much so that we export the stuff everywhere. All beef here is grass fed and 100% natural, no factory crap. We also have some of the best wild salmon outside of Canada, though I dont really like fish anyway. So my annoyance is that in a country with such an amazing beef industry I cannot find a single carnivore suitable snack. It makes zero sense at all. we dont even make Jerky here although I wont complain because that stuff is disgusting. Anyway I will persevere and come Jan1st I will be back at it ( Xmas is NOT a good time to start a diet 🤣), So yeah, thats my rant.
@IsakTougaard9 Thanks for the input, honestly, but Im actually after some sort of snacks so I can avoid cold meats during my lunch breaks. I went back on the diet on monday just as planned and I know the diet works for me due to previous success, its just boring. Anyway, to avoid the cold meats, which do have sugars in them, I have decided to simply use an air fryer and make batches of diced up steak and port bits. They are bite sized pieces which I can just put into a sealed container/bag and bring with me. I made my first batch today and whilst they will be cold when I eat them in work tomorrow I dont mind because they are better than the cold sandwich meats. Again, thanks for the recommendations there. I knew about pemmican but not about the ketones so that was useful to learn about, gives me some homework to do tonight 😁
@IsakTougaard9 Yeah the fat on the edge of the beef pieces is pretty crispy, its a strange sensation with the softer beef but as far as snacks go its pretty nice. Jerky is disgusting and that is not even up for debate. Now however I am thinking I could cut beef into long thin slices, like rashers, and see what the airfryer does to them....could be interesting.
Hi Bella, you are amazing, beautiful and intelligent, talking about a serious topic, you don’t have to showing your shoulders, because it’s not right situations. Thanks.
THANKS--- you're stating a LOT of what I found out recenlty.... I've been doing it for over a year-- with NO gains almost nothing changing-- but last 2 months PURE- and it's finally working.. so these things are GREAT for me too--- and I agree-- I was feeling the same as you on "normal" versions of the things you mentioned..
As a newbie Carnivore, (8 days now) Coming from the dirty Keto side, I'm not doing Carnivore for weight loss. I'm addressing my psoriasis which is controlled but not entirely eradicated. I still have a bit of stevia in my bulletproof coffee with zero cravings for carbs. I'm in the BBBE(Beef, butter, bacon and egg) 30 -90 phase. Big fan of Dr Ken Berry. All the other hacks in this video I do right now. I also lean on sparkling water (not the warm water) I'm gonna try warm for the digestion now. Thank you for that one reminder! Have you tried the Selina Naturally Celtic Sean Salt (potassium pink Cave salt)? Very tasty! I use that in lieu of Redmonds. 1/4 tsp has 400mg sodium, 239 mg potassium.

Loved the video Bella thanks for keeping me on track
Try Air Up. It trick your taste senses by the sense of smell.

What is your blood type? Most successful carnivores are type O..
The foods as she said them
#1 Pasteurized cheese
#2 Farmed Seafood
#3 Iced drinks
#4 Cold cut meat's
#5 Flavored Sparkling water
#6 Sweeteners
#7 Seasonings
#8 Salt
#9 Organs
#10 Lean meats
Thank you!
Well, she named soft cheeses - they are high fodmap. Sparkling water (flavored or not) causes digestive problems. "Sweeteners - obvious. Farmed seafood - obvious. seasoning - obvious. Iced drinks obvious.
Thank you it’s too long to listen to the whole thing
Never bury the lead! I appreciate chapter notes. Why not state the elements clearly. You lose more views burying the lead than setting expectations. Bait your viewers with the "why" not the "what".
Salt?
Thank you for all your videos. I started carnivore about 3 weeks ago and have used your videos a lot. They are very helpful. Lost 12 lbs so far. I have been handicapped for the last 10 years. So exercise is out of the question. But feeling much better already. I started at 369 lbs , I’ll let you know in a few months where I’m at. I’m finding that anything other than beef tends to leaving me craving other foods. So I’m torn whether to go beef and butter exclusively or keeping the extra meats and cheeses . Not there yet. Blood sugar has dropped 70 points. Happy. Keep up the awesome work.
I hope you are continuing to improve.
Replying so I can be notified of your updates.
I'm a former vegetarian for 25 years. I at a point went back to meat, then back to being a vegetarian.
I have tried various diets throughout my life to keep my weight down. I had a decent transformation with being a vegetarian, but unfortunately, it no longer serves me. I became very weak and gained weight. My weight sky rocked after turning 50 years young. I knew I had to make a serious change, and I finally looked up a diet called the blood type diet. This Blood Type Diet led me to Carnivore way of eating. I realized that all my inflammation and foggy, tired all the time, had everything to do with the fuel I was ingesting. I decided to test the Carnivore Diet even though I was so big on being vegetarianism. This video explained so much of all I had been dealing with as I've made the change. This is an excellent source of information, and you express it all so clearly. I feel much better about my Steak and Butter Life.
A lot of what you shared was a confirmation to feelings about all those detsiles from the pepper, salt, cold water, etc.
Your videos are so appreciated, Thank you.
May I ask what’s your blood type? I’ve been on vegan diet and other diets but girl this blood type diet I feel a lot better because I’m B and I love steak and butter
@@patsyalbritton6065 O-
I'm also curious about eating for blood type because my blood type "supposedly" does fine on vegetarian diet and i do feel better when I include some plant protein 🤔 (good quality organic)
I've never heard of the blood type diet 😮
I'll go research it, thanks!
Blood type diet saved my life and explained exactly why I was struggling with everything I ate and was always ill and obese ( having never been an overeater!). Books by Dr.Peter J. D'Amato; Eat Right for your Type and Live Right for Your Type. O- we are mainly only able to eat mostly carnivore. Down over 100lbs having eliminated Wheat, corn, ( pasta, bread, sugar).
Today is day #2 for me. Last night I had no anxiety or trouble breathing. I hope I can keep going on this diet. Thank you for inspiring me.
How is it going so far?
@@nouransadaqa6407 , I took a week vacation and fell off the wagon. Starting again

Growing up in Germany, we never even had ice cubes. My mom said that it is unhealthy for your stomach to drink cold beverages and it could even lead to a sore throat. Tea was always warm and mineral water sat on the counter for us to drink at room temperature.
Generally speaking ice cold drinks slow digestion
My (German) voice teacher taught the same to all her students. “Nothing icy, nothing spicy, and nothing hot.”
@@avasdvtiny hats control US
@@avasdvok, live in Germany full time then if you hate America so much lol like no one is begging you to stay
@@eroli2742Yeah, that person is entitled to their opinions, but they sound obnoxious. Definitely should make the move back to Germany.
I can see this diet and necessary adjustments work very well for you, so this is very encouraging to share with others. Congratulations on your successful channel and many thanks for the 1000’s of lives you’re helping and probably saving! Awesome! 👏
My nose has been clogged for 20 years, 10 days carnivore nose is final clear. Same issue with eczema and cleared up too. Hopefully I can be a carnivore for life
You mean swollen tissues when you say "clogged", right? Not mucus?
@exnihilonihilfit6316 yes just couldn't breathe through nose but it wasn't mucus
@@kevgerst6536 Right... like me, swollen tissues.
I have the same issue! Starting carnivore this coming Monday..wish me luck
Sounds like an allergy or autoimmune. It makes sense when you think about things we eat can contain allergen's and histamines. By cutting out the ones you are eating it lowers your general allergy response allowing your body to better relax and not sweat over the ones you might be breathing in. Moving or going on vacation in another country could greatly affect this response I am wondering if you have had such an experience.
Been using ice my drink since I was a teenager I’m now 92 years old and going strong, no aches and pains. To each is own😜
I’m 63 and a native Floridian and I’m with you! I’m not giving up ice or a nearly ice cold refrigerator!
Yeah like she said that’s an Asian thing. No way I’d ever give up a nice ice cold beverage.
@@jlozano2615It depends on where in Asia, too.
@@jlozano2615it's not the Asian thing only.
For example, US is the only country where beer is being consumed ice cold.
Americans are obsessed with drinking their cold drinks loaded in ice.
No judgement from me, I don't care how other people eat or drink. But to say that it's only Asian thing is not correct
@ I’m from Mexico. We drink ice cold beer and everything else.
I have to thank you. I started about 2 weeks ago and already lost 11 kg. You were the person who convinced me to try. I'm ill, and academic medicine can't help me. Some crap is "eating me," and my doctors don't know what's going on, me either. So that was the motor to try it out. Right now I eat only beef and butter. I was skeptical at first, but after 3rd day, I feel I was like a hangover and run by a train. I'm a IT guy so i was rly hard to convince me without eevidance, but you did it! THAAAAANK YOU! Greetings from Poland!!!
11 kgs in 2 weeks?
Come on 😅
I am honored!! Congrats to you ❤️
11kg in 2 weeks... Something's wrong there.
@@ZelindraArkathius impossibile...🙄🥴😂🤷🏻
Carnivore is great! Now look into parasite cleansing. It's a shock, at first, that we have parasites--but they are responsible for most of our health issues and, especially, food intolerances. I think parasite cleansing while on carnivore could completely restore your health.
I drink iced water but only in summer. Our summers are insanely hot and humid and iced water really goes down well and adds to easing the discomfort from the weather.
When it is that hot it is probably boiling by the time it hits your stomach anyway lol 😂
Bella, I am 3 years in on Carnivore and I've been watching you since I started. I've been walking a few steps behind you the whole way and agree with everything on this list! Thank you for everything! 💖
i love you and your content so much!!! i am a former vegan, i felt that comment where you said you have an addictive personality. i am struggling through sugar withdrawals and i felt that comment so much! its hard to imagine life without any sweeteners again like stevia even.but i think you def bring up valid points
Use a really good organic stevia or some alilos. At first you'll likely find within a few months that your taste for it goes away or you can do without it without a struggle.
Such great information from someone that’s been eating this way for over 5 years! Good suggestions when experiencing problems or irritations
I have begun watching your content and am becoming very interested because you are quite literally GLOWING with health. The way you look really speaks for itself on what you speak on.
This is one of your greatest videos so far!! Thanks. This is going in my favorites to send to my friends starting on carnivore. You covered so many important points and they were all true!! Loved it!
Awesome video...unfortunately, I have priced ALL the Carnivore products marketed by you and others like Sitka Seafood $350 for a box, meat chips are $40 for a bag for munchies or these ready made meals... as a pensioner on a budget, pushing these product sponsors just turns me off... Carnivore clean eating tips and your 11 meals every week is a stellar help! Thank you .
They are $159 to $139. Where are you getting $350 for a box??
Oh Bella.... I've been 9 months into this carnivore diet and I took away cow cheese and eating only goat and sheep... My rosacea and stomach doesn't go well with cow cheese... Butter I take a bit while cooking.
I experiences with some fruits. Tried some apples and my whole stomach HURT so bad... I ate some pancakes.. I think I ate 4 times in 9 months, while out with friends.
One thing I noticed is honey. I react very good to it... But need to be careful how much I indulge in it.
I hope one day I'll be able to let go. My family and friends thinks I'm crazy but I do have some people who gets it... Because they see the result on me.
Stay safe and hope you're dad is better. Thank you again for the content you do.
Sugar addiction is real... It's so hard to fight that urge of wanting to feast on that stuff...
I used to eat several apples a day before going mostly carnivore. I loved the laxative effect but after being mostly carnivore for a few months, I seem to have an allergy to them. It sucks because I need that bowel movement everyday otherwise I feel constipated. I can still eat and do eat blueberries everyday but it doesn’t do the same for bowel movement.
I am not suggesting you eat apples, but I personally find my body likes them much better cooked than raw.
@@lilolmecj interesting. Cooking apples could neutralize whatever I am allergic to. I break out to sugar so it may be the sugar in it. I may try to cook it to see if it’s the sugar or the apple. Apples are low in oxalate and anti nutrients.
But I am getting better at not having bowel movements everyday so may not need to eat any apples.
Hi Bella - you taught me to start my healthy lifestyle, and this is where it stands: grass-fed and grass-grazed beef, animal farm eggs direct from the farm knowing the Farmer & homemade ghee. Keep it minimal. Include again only farm direct greens from a farmer you know. This is the best way for me ....I also suggest seasonal fruits like strawberries (spring) & blueberries (summer) you visit the farm direct and pick yourself. Be careful of grocery stores. Yoga and exercise are essential to maintain discipline. Good luck!
I started more carnivore today. This morning I had a 12 oz rib eye steak along with avocado and coffee with hwc. Colleagues at work were shocked that I ate steak for breakfast because they say steak is dinner meal, not breakfast. They then told me I need to eat sausage biscuits instead. I told them - not for this diabetic.
Thanks for all this great information! I'm just beginning carnivore. Made it about 6 days last week, keep getting off. Need to get comfortable staying with it so I can heal all my health issues. Thanks for the helpful videos.
About 7 wks in on carnivore and don’t do well with cheese/dairy. I haven’t tried raw dairy. May give them a try once I’m further down the magical meaty road. RA symptoms have diminished so much I’m off all RA meds! This is a miracle to me! I was suffering greatly while on these meds, none worked and they made me feel awful. I feel wonderful now and will never go back to the SAD diet!
Fantastic! I've talked to someone with RA about this, unfortunately they were not willing to change their diet to get better. Beats me.🤷
This fills me with hope. My RA isn't well controlled at the moment and the meds are so toxic. 3rd week on carnivore and feeling a little better.
@@abudhabiwitch5144 Good luck and be careful of fiber. It feeds strains of P.Copri that are highly prevalent in people with RA, and strongly correlated with RA.
So amazing
It'll keep getting better
Couldn't eat raw meat. Ever. Have a food aversion to red meat, anyhow. Wish I could over come this feeling. It's hurting my carnivore journey😢
I liked and subscribed the second you mentioned oxalate and inflammation. This tells me your journey and experience are nuanced. I am not quite carnivore, as I have only a month ago given up processed foods, junk, most carbs and refined sugars (of course,
being of Chinese descent, we are programmed to eat white rice) but I am simplifying and eliminating even whole foods as I go along- especially high oxalate 'superfoods'. I am on a quest for health and minimalization of inflammation through diet and will lean on the knowledge of people like you to help me navigate through the treacherous waters of the standard North American diet.
You definitely are benefiting from your diet, because your skin looks extremely healthy. I understand you use a skin care regimen from having watched previous videos. Still though, there's only so much skin care products can do. This is why I share your channel with anyone I believe would benefit from the information you share. Thank you for your efforts in sharing. It's great that you are also sharing the information on drinking liquids at room temperature or warmer because I learned years ago from a friend that when you ingest cold, iced liquids; your stomach has to work to warm those liquids up in order to use them. I still drink cooled liquids, but not often.
She is the only youtuber that wear makeup on videos. Bcause she dont like the simplicity of carnivore diet: BEEF SALT WATER. Maybe after confusion none of people will buy her awesome carnivore support blah-blah talk. Just stick to basic as we all do, and you WILL have awesome glowing skin.
Amazingly compiled information. My favourite video of Your's so far. I'm devoted to the diet mostly thanks to You and Mr. Chaffee.
Day 2. I'm excited.😊
How’s the new lifestyle going?
You rock
Been carnivore since 7/17/23. Down 28 pounds, at 8% body fat, lowered BP to 117/70 from 130/85, improved energy levels, and greatly reduced inflammatory conditions.
NEVER GOING BACK
Thanks for the motivation
Raw ??
@@BlackWolf-rw1cy carnivore isn't raw. Cook your meat.
I started off eating only steak and tallow. At first I felt great, but after month 3, I felt like I had too much energy… wired, edgy, and kind of aggressive honestly! I now drink about 2 cups of raw milk and 2 cups of kefir a day and feel MUCH better, calm and nourished.
That's a lot of carbs. Too many for lots of people.
Well done listening to yourself ♥️
@@dmmcmah1 still, it is what's best for her. The best thing is to react to what you experience in your own skin, rather than blindly follow what some others dictate is correct.
That's the main fallacy of veganism in my opinion. That you have to adhere to external rules and values. Body knows best, once addiction has cleared up.
@@ruthanna4713 Not dictating anything - I said "too many carbs for lots of people" - I didn't say ALL people. I am not a dietary militant and eat some vegetables and even occasionally things like fried chicken although I am "ketovore" most of the time.
And that may change. Just keep listen ing to your body. We all have different maladies and issues in our bodies to heal. Best wishes to you! Keep doing what you’re doing as long as it works!!❤
I have been on the lion diet for almost 30 days eating omad. I was already keto for 4 years and it was no longer working for me. I didn't think I would have keto flu but the first 4 days were awful, had so much congestion and was coughing so much from long covid.I had long covid for 2 years and thought carnivore would help, I tried everything else. After the first 4 days my keto flu went away and I can breath through my nose for the first time in my life (I'm 70).Some of my other symptoms are getting better. I hope this eventually heals me so I can breath again and my heart palpitations stop. Love your videos.
How are you doing now, 4 weeks later?
I have fallen off the carnivore diet temporarily, the holidays were too tempting. Plan to start again right after Christmas. My breathing is still better but I'm somewhat congested, regained 20 lbs already. I started taking glycine and have not had any leg cramps at all which is unheard of for me.
I hope things continue to improve for you, I can breath like never before on the carnivore diet.
I personally believe that the "keto flu" is the body detoxing, and people will feel much better after it's done.
For long Covid, have you tried nicotine patches 7 mg ? The same that people who smoke and try to quit
Great video!! Thank you, I hit day 30 yesturday and am loving it. I’m loving not limiting and restricting myself, I am the happiest I’ve ever been when it comes to food. Food and I now have a very healthy relationship ❤
Just started 2 days in. The headaches suck and I learned from watching you today that cooking my eggs in the butter and bacon fat is what is making me nauseous and to slow down and eat it cold. Thank you for that!
So you’re drinking the eggs and eat raw pork ?😂
@@JohZs77 why??? If not going to be helpful then why bother with a smartass remark that does nothing.
Day 7 on carnivore just got over the keto flu that was BRUTAL! 😂 but now I’m feeling so energized I noticed my body has become more sensitive to caffeine , maybe because my body is already become very energetic 😳 and Bella about the cold water I THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY! It seems that room temp water my body absorbs a lot faster and I feel more hydrated
I got that too. I had it for the first 3 weeks I was on the diet and I got so sick I finally had to quit. I lost weight but oddly enough I was in pain from head to toe. Every joint in my body caused agonizing pain to the point that I would break down sobbing and then my ankles swelled up so much, they were huge plus I head an unrelenting headache that never went away the entire time! That was a year ago and now I want to start back but I keep thinking of quality of life. Will a life without one piece of bread, one piece of cake or pasta be worth all the benefits? My answer is still no, I just can’t do it. Parties and gatherings or dinners with friends or family would feel so hollow or like a dull drudgery that yielded no pleasure knowing bread or dessert is off the table forever. As I mentioned earlier, I had that flu you talked about and after collapsing at my friends home I’m still terrified to try it again because I don’t ever want to feel that sick, weak and in pain again. I have so much respect and admiration for those who have mastered this lifestyle and have the strength to sacrifice so much pleasure. It takes INDOMITABLE will power. I genuinely envy those who are able to give up all carbs.
@@benicio1967need electrolytes, like LMNT.
@@benicio1967 It's not just will power, but method. You can gradually reduce your carbs. Cold turkey is great if you have the will and know what you're doing. 3 Weeks of inflammation means you were consuming something that you were anergic to (most store bought animal products are grain fed) as well as poor salt/electrolyte/potassium intake. Go slow until you pass go.
Keto flu is bullshit. Don't do that. Balance. @@moocorp
On day 12 over here! Arthritis is finally away. You still going?

Very informative, Bella. Thank you for all these points.
I like my distilled water left on the counter at room temperature, together its so easy too stay hydrated.
Great to know.
Everyone who craves something milky / refreshing should try homemade kefir. Thats the only milk based drink i drink daily in my carnivore diet, after only eating meat for the first 2 months to adjust better.
For me it just hits this spot of being sooo refreshing and sour, that it helps against possible cravings a ton.
Kefir and kombucha are two of my favorite drinks! 👍🏻☺️
I love raw milk. We get some from a local farm. I crave it and just can't imagine being without it now. I had kefir for over a year and would make my own but the strong taste was rough to swallow. I could only use it in my banana raw cacao nice crea..
Many year ago my dad got me drinking things at room temperature.
I also cut salt out almost completely, over 20 years ago but i had been having horrible cramping for many years undiagnosed.
Well when i started the carnivore this summer i realized it's probably all been from the lack of sodium. So I've added it back in and voila no more cramping.
Thank you for your videos. I always go back to your videos when I need motivation to stay the course.
Thanks, Bella. I'm getting the message from this video that I can make further adjustments.
Great video Bella, thank you for the information. You look so healthy ❤
Being from Spain, we never used ice. This ‘habit’ has moved down to my son and he too only drinks water at room temperature. He doesn’t really drink other daily beverages.
No one in spain drink iced water. Spain is one of the countries that live the longest7healthiest in the world.
Still gaining weight, but I'm okay with it because of your story! At work we celebrated a safety milestone, so they provided a steak and eggs breakfast! The ribeye was delicious, but I ended up having a reaction to the seasoning. You live and you learn, you win some and you loose some!
Try adding weight training. Build muscle while you eat!
Wow kinda shocked they had a carnivore meal at work. Go them!
Wow, not cakes and sweets, that’s great 😃
Time to quit
That’s what I’ve noticed eating restaurant prepared steaks (likely tenderizing ingredients), also ‘pre-seasoned’ steaks from grocer to take home & cook.
EXCELLENT PRESENTATION.❤ LOVE IT!
Haha I love your use of “fluffy” which is exactly how I describe how eating the tiniest bit of any grains makes me feel … I so know what you mean!
Thanks for the fluid temperature tip . I am amazed at how much it effected me by drinking cold fluids . Thanks for all you do !
1. Thanks, Bella! 🙏

very interesting about the iced/chilled beverages
My husband drinks his water at room temperature because he says he enjoys it more when it’s not from the fridge.
Oh no…you crushed me with the “no iced drinks”! I am the opposite. I don’t enjoy water without it being ice cold if not iced.
Room temperature water only for me. My wife adds hot water to her room temp water. She’s Vietnamese. So, this must back up the Asian comment.
Same, room temperature water always
I'm the same way. My wife trying to give me ice all the time.
@@judymurray191I can’t stand room temperature water. It makes me want to gag and I don’t drink as much as I should. I drink hot tea but I also drink iced tea and cold water. Especially when you live in a place that the temps get up to 100+ in the summer.
Wow, very surprised about the salt aspect. I'll have to keep that in mind. Also didn't know cold drinks could have a negative effect. Very good info here, thanks!
Gratitude Bella,God bless you,i love you
Love you back!
Re: Black pepper. The amount used for seasoning is so small that the oxylates consumed are negligible. One the other hand, black pepper is highly beneficial as it helps the body to absorb nutrients and vitamins. So don’t worry about black pepper. Its benefits far outweigh any imagined negative effect.
It’s understandable that you wouldn’t like “game” meat . I grew up on wild meat of all kinds and I love it!! I have a challenge getting what I grew up now though- thanks for all you do-you’re so inspiring!!
I'm happy to learn from your journey on carnivore. You break things down in a unique and exciting way. Thanks
Loved this video. I’m 10 months carnivore, and am gradually eliminating the same foods as you stated.
I just started 3 days ago! So excited!
70 y/o here. I started carnivore 1 week ago today. I am a new person, and I am not consuming anything on your list. I have had sinus/nasal congestion for years and years. Guess what...without pepper that is gone!! Totally gone. I feel like a new person.
Started on my Carnivore journey today. Here's to getting to my better self!
Love your info! Just a sidebar, it's better for hubby to be to take his meals out of the plastic containers and heat them on a regular dinner plate (non plastic). You two a so adorable.
Your Channel is soooo helpful. Thanks, SBGAL.
I really love your videos, and I am so proud of you for being so self aware and committed to taking care of yourself.
I realize that I have several of the same issues that you have, however, I also see several differences.
I really just wanted to say, "YOU GO GIRL!"
I love braunschweiger. You are not eating lamb. You are having old mutton.
I raise Shetland sheep. They are not gamey. The meat is very delicate and subtle. They are harvested off organic pasture raised and at a young age. Love your channel. I am about 3 weeks
into carnivore. Been doing keto some
prior. 76 years old. Will be interesting to see how I do. Love the help you give to us
For some Lamb and Venison are acquired tastes. But I agree with you. Personally I like old mutton. It’s not as bland as beef.
3 mo the in, how is your carnivore journey coming along?
Except for an occasional lamb chop, Americans are not fans of lamb or mutton. So, sadly, we don’t have great offerings to choose from.
Thanks for this! I just started carnivore this week and it’s going great so far. I’m finding omad is sufficient for me right now. I was just laid off work last week, so now I can concentrate on getting my health on track and pursuing my hobbies 🙂
I can’t eat organ meats, no matter how much bacon and gravy you put in it, just tastes too rich
I take the organ supplement. I can't abide the flavor of liver.
You'll be surprised if you stay on the carnivore diet after a few months. Try organ meats, and you'll be amazed how delicious they'll taste ..
How was your flu? I went thru 3 weeks
Love my flavored water doesn’t have any sugar at all and I’m fine with it
Spot on with the room temp or hot water. It was great when I went to China I learned it. I don't like anything with ice anymore.
Thanks for doing these. I think I have a sensitive system like you. Overeating dairy is what I am pretty sure flared up some sinus issues for me and I’m looking into too much salt being the cause of some queeziness I’ve had lately. Appreciate you keeping it real with your experience!
I'm really surprised about the cold water.
I drank room temperature water for decades before going Carnivore 21 months ago. Suddenly I craved cold water. It has to be cold! When I say cold I mean freezing. The more ice the better. And the same thing happened to my wife.
I'm just going to keep listening to my body but you gave me something to think about.
Yes hot broths and cold water
@@chrismoore1372 Yeah! I also love hot broth!
Every now and then I just need cold water. Listen to your body, I agree.
A divine appointment to find your video first thing this morning as I’m sipping my coffee since meal yesterday was a block of Gorgonzola cheese just as pictured here as soon as your video started! 😂 Funny thing is, I already knew even before eating it and this only confirms it! I am new to carnivore diet only one week in ! So thank you ❤
Great video Bella! I find that eating liver at least weekly is highly beneficial to my body. Otherwise, I am always eating ground beef or Rib Eyes with eggs.
I actually like the taste of liver, which surprised me. I soak it overnight in broth and cook it in butter. I could never eat it raw. It's gross before cooking it.
@@VgVi13, may I ask what type of broth do you soak it in?
@@teresamarrero2461 I buy the rotisserie chickens at Sams and use a crock pot to make broth with the bones and left over meat. It's not 100% good because of the seasonals and God only knows what else they put in and on the chickens, but it works and for cheap $5. I cut up the meat and usually use it in my scrambled eggs. I get a lot for the $5.
When I first started on the phd I was adding unbelievable amounts of salt to my food and now, 4-5 months in I hardly ever add any salt. I didn't even realize that I had stopped until I heard you mention it. But, that's the beauty of the phd, you listen to your body. Obviously it needed that salt before but now that need has passed and I don't even think about it.
Thank you for sharing your experience & knowledge. It is so helpful, and so glad to see you have recovered since your return home.
Organs? i thought you played the violin wakawaka. Honestly. thank you for sharing i have just started cold turkey for 2 months now and your video saying dont do it that way. well 2 months late for me to find you channel but the tips you give on that video helped me realize the changes my body was going thru wasn’t just me. thank you so much for this channel.
Yeah the second part with the farmed fish got me, here we have a lot of farmed salmon, the thing is that the fish is fed with fish from the Baltic Sea, the most polluted sea in Europe. Hence even fish sellers at times warn you about eating to much of it and tell you not to consume it as a child or during pregnancy..
Good to hear your experiences and know that everyone is different, so if I notice any of these things I know it's not the carnivore diet per se and not to give it up!
Thanks 👍🏼
Interjection- caregiver- a caretaker is someone who handles the dead - caregiver is one who cares for the infirm or elderly

I DON'T like liver (so far...); I LOVE hearts; I haven't tried kidneys...BUT: for me, they've got to be COOKED. I'll have to see about kidneys, AND COD liver, which I've not tried yet ...the liver I tried was beef, chicken and lamb liver. You are not afraid to experiment, Ms Steak and butter gal. I appreciate your fearlessness - it sets a great example. Stay awesome !
40 years carnivore but I eat cheese and yogurt daily. The cheese I buy in the store but I ferment the yogurt myself. I am not sure what brain fog and bloating is though. I took care of my parents for almost 10 years so stress eating is familiar to me. I could put away 8 ounces of cheddar/gouda cheese and 4 pounds of beef daily. Wild seafood is accessible here either from fishermen or you catch your own. Iguana is a great wild caught food as well. I drink iced water all of the time. Never coffee or even carbonated water. Eating raw liver was something I did and I still eat it at times. Lean meats are awful and I prefer fresh killed to aged.
Thanks for posting all your wonderful videos. I started carnivore over a month ago and noticed my inflammation has gone way down. I have been cheating a bit lately and have noticed aches and pains coming back. It's interesting that you mention pepper giving you problems. I will have to try cutting that out.
Sorry to hear about your Dad, hope he’s better & either way how awesome you could go care for him during that time ♥️
Her dad passed. It was a rough time (as she shared in some prior videos).
Working my way to your example. Thank you Bella.
Interesting knowledge about tempered water. I will definitely try it out cause I drink a lot of fridges-cold water. If your mom told you more of the same, perhaps you could share it with us ?
Yes, would love you to share any tidbits they have taught you along the way. Some cultures are so ahead of the game!
Western culture always takes from others what do you give the world thats useful to the same degree?
Hello and thank you for sharing your experiences!
This is great advice/info for me!
Organ meats? LOVE fresh, juicy, succulent liver. I crave it. I eat a pound a couple times per week. I feel sorry for people who don't like liver.
Very helpful reminder. Thanks
I was a cheese addict, I've experienced the symptoms you've mentioned eating pasteurized cheese. All of it went away since I've started carnivore diet. I've been trimming down and mental focus, energy is simply amazing. Also, one ingredient was still leaving me a bit lethargic and I soon realized it must be the salt. I've since minimized it and whatddaya know...thank you for this info...simply awesome 👌
Happy Birthday good man! 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
I love the info, documented results, and explanations. I'm considering trying carnivore to lose my visceral fat. But for afterward, I'm struggling with trying to reconcile this with the way people eat in the Blue Zones. It's said they eat about 10% less meat than average Americans, and they eat whole grains, tubers, plants and beans. SB-Gal, I'd be interested in your thoughts about that? TIA
You may wish to look up video with Nutritionist Mary Ruddick.. she traveled and LIVED in all blue zones.. and debunked the movie, book, etc.. they eat meat, organs, etc
Thanks for all your work!
Thanks to you I realized yogurt was causing my stuffiness. I breath so much better cutting it out.
Bella, invest in a meat slicer and a dehydrator. Make your own carnivore crisps. Use eye of round and slice it. Leave fat attached. They are awesome. The slicer opens up so many ways to change up your meal plans. I just recently started using a meat slicer myself. Thanks for all the videos. 🎉🎉🎉
No need to do the extra work of making from scratch as her budget clearly allows for the pre-made snacks & yes that’s the way to go if ur trying to or need to save money in ur budget
Good advice - thanks!
Do you have a slicer you would recommend?
I got an electric meat slicer for Christmas, and since I’ve been out of town until today, I’ve already got my meat ready to slice and dehydrate tomorrow, I’m so excited.
Thanks SBGl, lovely video.
I always slip up over the holidays. Hoping this year will be different
You can do it! Eat lots of buttah
I call it Sugar Season.
Its everywhere, all the time. I love it, but it doesn't love me ❤
Hi SBG - I really appreciate this video. Organ meats or aged (or any) lamb I can't swallow. Even though I'm only on day 6 and have been consuming dairy and cheese, I completely agree with your list and react the same to the pasteurized dairy so I appreciate the cheese suggestion. Day 5 was brutal, I felt like I had a bad hangover and got run over by something. Farmed seafood ("Frankenfood") is good for nobody. What I am consuming is a far cry from the sugar and carbs which became my "vice" foods. I do make my own almond milk using a little stevia and also chicken or turkey thigh (bone-in) soup for me and the cat which is the best source of collagen, I feel, instead of buying a supplement. Thank you so much ❤
So here is something really annoying. I did about a year of Carnivore from late 2021 - late 2022 and I found it amazing. I lost the weight I medically needed to lose, 85lbs in total, my snoring went away, no longer pre-diabetic and all the other usual benefits of the diet. Of course 2023 rolled around and things went to hell for me and I came off the diet. Weight went back up, almost 50lbs now, and snoring is back also.
I decided a few weeks ago to go back on carnivore because things have calmed down but this time I decided to do much more research and be more specific and hopefully more successful in staying on it. The one thing I had noticed the first time was my lack of snack options. I work in retail and we only get very short breaks so eating a full meal is almost never an option. I of course ended up on the cold meats every time. It worked but boy was it boring and hard. I searched and searched for suitable snacks and found nothing. The annoying part I mentioned is that I live in Ireland! Now this is a country with some of the best beef and ham on earth, so much so that we export the stuff everywhere. All beef here is grass fed and 100% natural, no factory crap. We also have some of the best wild salmon outside of Canada, though I dont really like fish anyway. So my annoyance is that in a country with such an amazing beef industry I cannot find a single carnivore suitable snack. It makes zero sense at all. we dont even make Jerky here although I wont complain because that stuff is disgusting. Anyway I will persevere and come Jan1st I will be back at it ( Xmas is NOT a good time to start a diet 🤣), So yeah, thats my rant.
@IsakTougaard9 Thanks for the input, honestly, but Im actually after some sort of snacks so I can avoid cold meats during my lunch breaks. I went back on the diet on monday just as planned and I know the diet works for me due to previous success, its just boring.
Anyway, to avoid the cold meats, which do have sugars in them, I have decided to simply use an air fryer and make batches of diced up steak and port bits. They are bite sized pieces which I can just put into a sealed container/bag and bring with me. I made my first batch today and whilst they will be cold when I eat them in work tomorrow I dont mind because they are better than the cold sandwich meats.
Again, thanks for the recommendations there. I knew about pemmican but not about the ketones so that was useful to learn about, gives me some homework to do tonight 😁
@IsakTougaard9 Yeah the fat on the edge of the beef pieces is pretty crispy, its a strange sensation with the softer beef but as far as snacks go its pretty nice.
Jerky is disgusting and that is not even up for debate. Now however I am thinking I could cut beef into long thin slices, like rashers, and see what the airfryer does to them....could be interesting.
You're lucky you don't get total junk meat we get in the states.
Hi Bella, you are amazing, beautiful and intelligent, talking about a serious topic, you don’t have to showing your shoulders, because it’s not right situations. Thanks.
THANKS--- you're stating a LOT of what I found out recenlty.... I've been doing it for over a year-- with NO gains almost nothing changing-- but last 2 months PURE- and it's finally working.. so these things are GREAT for me too--- and I agree-- I was feeling the same as you on "normal" versions of the things you mentioned..
Wonderful video! I’m still new to carnivore and I’m learning so much from you.
As a newbie Carnivore, (8 days now) Coming from the dirty Keto side, I'm not doing Carnivore for weight loss.
I'm addressing my psoriasis which is controlled but not entirely eradicated.
I still have a bit of stevia in my bulletproof coffee with zero cravings for carbs.
I'm in the BBBE(Beef, butter, bacon and egg) 30 -90 phase. Big fan of Dr Ken Berry.
All the other hacks in this video I do right now.
I also lean on sparkling water (not the warm water) I'm gonna try warm for the digestion now. Thank you for that one reminder!
Have you tried the Selina Naturally Celtic Sean Salt (potassium pink Cave salt)? Very tasty! I use that in lieu of Redmonds. 1/4 tsp has 400mg sodium, 239 mg potassium.
Pls don't fund suicide bombers ....do some research
