Happy to hear him talk about assumed self diagnosis and the fact we do not need supplements. "Don't knee jerk to what somebody tells you on the internet." Best advice ever. So many folks think they are experts. So happy to just listen to this doctor.
Totally what I thought. You don’t hear this much and everybody just repeats what they’ve heard from somebody else. He is not falling for it. A real scientist.
Actually, most of us do know better than others what is going on with ourselves. For me, the night that something felt off causing me to google heart attack symptoms, saved my life. Even the paramedics said i was only having a panic attack but the EKG said otherwise
You should look at those who lead by example & put their money where their mouth might be. It's not a self diagnosis if that "somebody" happens to be a US-born carnivore for 20+ years, looks like a greek god, was a professional rugby player, started his medical training when he was 15, & is currently a neurosurgeon in Perth, Austrailia (Dr. Anthony Chaffee/PlantFreeMD). Easy solution, just use your eyes & ears. Would you listen to a fat or sick doctor? Naive and ignorant people depend on direct information to parrot. If you take years, like me, to study from multiple avenues of learning (books, podcasts, film) you can come to your own conclusions. Dr. Cywes does have some good information, but f#$@ dairy if you're trying to kick the addictions associated with carb and sugar consumption. Among other addictions one may have in the modern world.

You've essentially handed out the responsibility of your own health to someone else just because they have a degree and a receptionist assigned doctor readily available. You should shop for doctors just as hard as you shop for (name your vice here). Good Luck!
I've been Carnivore/Ketovore for about 7 months now and I've had alot of light bulb moments during this talk. Thank you for this discussion guys and keep fighting the good fight and help us find answers to the questions you've posed.
@@cutabove9046 keto/carnivore is high in animal/saturated fats, not trans fats. The overwhelming majority of trans fats in the modern human diet comes from vegetable oils.
@@cutabove9046 The small amounts of *natural* trans fat in meat isn't harmful. It's the artificial trans fats you have to avoid. You know, the so-called vegetable oils that are touted as heart healthy! 🤪🤪
The beauty of being fat adapted and carnivore is being in touch with one's appetite. I know what I am craving, need and do not need. I now have the odd desire for liver, oysters and/or hard cheese. My body is so much more intelligent than I give credit to. It knows what it wants and needs.

Such a great informative talk! Love how Dr. Cywes is so undogmatic and open minded. Incredibly smart! Love Judy too. So great to benefit from both their experiences. Greatest combination. Thank you both so much!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! I had heard that bile was created from old red blood cells that the spleen sent to the liver. I have no spleen and no gallbladder. I worried that my liver was not producing the bile, or at least not enough. Been doing the carnivore thing for a couple of months now and everything is functioning normally and the RIGHT color. I can now stop worrying! 😄
I had my gallbladder out at 16 yrs of age but was never told how to eat after that. I eat Keto or Carnivore and never have an issue eating fat. (I lost 111 lbs in 2006 and have kept most off)
So true about people trying to sell a product. I totally understand people needing to make money, and people wanting to get rewarded for the work they put in a book, but some are just in it for a quick buck. Here's my perspective, if they are giving me 20% of the information and say, "read my book for the rest," I walk away. If they give me 80% and say, "the more precise details are in my book," I listen to them, then decide. If they give it all to me and say, "here's everything you need but if you want to support me, purchase my book." I'll buy their book. (if the information is pertaining to me.) Dr Berry is a great example this. He tells you everything you need! Same with Dr Chaffee and this Dr. They are here to help and not sell a bunch of supplements with their face on it.
This is an awesome interview! I love the study of the physiology of the body systems and can't get enough. Been looking at pathways for 30 years and feel like I'm just scratching the surface! Thank you! Keep being curious and asking questions!
Dr. Cywes, you're one fantastic doctor and human being. You're one open-minded person, you're simply admirable. Thank you for being sincere and realistic to the truth. I look forward to consulting you
Especially loved the discussion about electrolytes, protein/fat consumption, and meal frequency. I do feel best when 100% carnivore eating mainly ruminant meat.
Wow what an awesome incredible interview. Absolutely loved what you both said. It’s helped me feel better. I’m just going to take my time with the process. Thank you 😊
He has great wisdom and unlimited passion, and as well openess to fail. The community need those high profiles doing a lot of accurat trial and study work to find more truth. Cheers from Germany
What an amazing conversation. Dr. Cywes your humanistic perspectives on optimal nutrition are extremely refreshing and enlightening. You are..."The Motivational Doc".
I Don't have a gallblatter since 1982 could not eat no vegetables, the pain was horrible, nowone told me Not to eat veggies. Toďay 1 year conivore i feel great. Thank you dr. Chaviss!😊😁😍😘
Apparently the Doc never had a problem with leg cramps. But when your sleep is disturbed every night it becomes a problem. I tried more electrolytes and it helped a little. When i started iodine i haven't had another leg cramp.
He said it's a magnesium imbalance, not deficiency. You're ganna get them until your body balances out. Also, he said that newbies may need to help to get through until it balances out. But he kept pointing out that you aren't deficient, it's in there, just in the wrong spot.
Love this video, it answered so many of my questions. I'm 64 and done mostly carnivore for a few months. However 9 years ago I had necrotizing pancreatitis and was in hospital for one year, eventually ending up with amonnia in my brain which nearly killed me. This video covered so many things that was of use to someone like me. Thanks.
Excellent! Buddy is a masterful interviewer and Dr. Cywes is so willing, approachable and open with both hard science and evolving science. Great pairing!
I had 2 children in span of 3 years by age 28. Had a severe blockage of gallbladder and emergency surgery to remove gallbladder. This was back in 1987. My mother had hers out when she was 26 after 4 babies in 5 years. I saw a magazine article years ago questioning whether or not there is a connection between pregnancy hormones and gallstones. Wish I knew more about the causes and natural treatments instead of removal
Interesting, I had a similar situation. Diagnosed with gallstones at 22, but they would not remove it. Took pills to dissolve them. Fast forward a few years later, had 3 more children every 2 years and massive gallstone issue. They removed it at tied my tubes...my gallbladder burst due to the stone being so large. this was 25 years ago. Over past 25 years I've lost about 130 pounds, gained some back, lost gained, lost, now 40 from goal. I started Keto about 4 or 5 years ago, switched to Carnivore, 4 surgeries in that time, on and of and now slowly working my way back to Ketovore/Carnivore, due to Fructans Intolerance, Lactose and chronic fatigue. I just can't or won't' give up.
Oh, goodness me, l wish l had known this when I had my gall bladder removed in 1991 and was advised to go fat-free. I lived fat-free and became sick with all kinds of illnesses. I went on keto three years ago and have been doing well health wise . Thanks Doc
Going carnivore was an easy decision, but it's not an easy/uncomplicated journey. I'm newbie to carnivore and today had many questions answered. I am a champion 'cramper' and eat magnesium of all description and still cramp at night and during exercise.. It's been the baine of my life. So mag usage in the body is key, not volume! Thank you for this discussion. My journey continues...
@SunnyBadgr Hi Yes I do. I eat a mix of beef heart and lamb liver. For some strange reason I cannot get beef liver. I have also started taking Taurine as a supplement and mostly my cramping has stopped.
I heard Lillie Kane recently say in an interview that DAY cramping is due to magnesium and NIGHT cramps are due to potassium. And I literally just typed that as the doctor was saying "oh, So and so on the internet said this about cramps So that must be right" 😂
respect to you both. Have you ever tried to do a Rubiks cube? I always tried to get one side than go to the next. Bad idea. you have to work on all sides at once! I thought of this illustration when he said the body is like a fine Swiss watch. You cannot try to fix one thing, you have to get to the "root cause" and treat the whole self. JUst thought I'd share that. It just seems impossible for someone like me to attempt this. I feel overwhelmed. So thank you for all your help.
agreed, being very hungry creates cravings for ice cream, etc. LOL. I have recently started eating more often with only 12 hour fasts during the night and feel better with more control.
If you listen properly to the video, there's a lot more to it than weight loss. The reason why Dr. Cywes advises some people to cut back on the fat, and increase meal frequency, is based on their blood results. Some carnivores obviously are not eating the right percentages of macronutrients, which puts them out of whack, and that's what he is addressing.
I am totally blown away by this talk. Thank you Dr. Cywes for educating us. The one thing I struggle with is electrolyte balance on a low carb diet. I am giving it time for my body to balance itself. But I do have extra salt, magnesium and potassium citrate or my energy slumps very low.
Of all the promoters of carnivore diet, this doctor is my favorite. I'm looking forward to reading Judy's Book, which just came into my local library, but I wonder how she reconciles the fact that she sells many supplements on her website with what this doctor is saying here. Also, pleased to hear what he says about the fallacy of oxalates.
It never used to be ! Problem was we were inundated with marketing companies since the fifties wanting to get rich and it’s exploded since then I agree it’s complicated but we have to weed though it all for our health
I think it took members of my household anywhere from a week to six weeks. Just a heads up though, to much electrolytes will cause diarrhea, and if you get constipated try salt. Good luck!
I will have to go back and listen to the whole video again. I started LCHF almost 2 years ago. At one point, my blood work was getting better (except LDL which elevated almost immediately and getting higher and higher as I eat less carbs). My last A1C was higher (5.8), 2 hours postprandial blood glucose also elevated. It makes a lot of sense what Dr. Cywes said in this video. I will have to adjust what I eat and how I eat.
@@johnf.hebert1409 add back some healthy carbs such as blueberries, manuka honey (just a tiny bit each time) and sweet potatoes. Relaxed my intermittent fasting window. Just had my blood work done and found out I have hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue so reduced exercise to walking and light aerobic (keep heart rate under 120) and avoid exhaustion. So far fiver prick blood test are within normal range. Have to wait a few month to test A1C and lipid panel again.
I have been struggling with loose bowels and a light yeast infection since going carnivore. This has been going on for a few months. I gave up dairy for March to see if that would help. Nope. I needed this podcast.
@@patrickh709eating a half cup of homemade yogurt each morning helped but when i stopped the loose bowels came back. Working on cutting out coffee to see if that is my issue. And FYI.. it wasn't yeast infection but just a hormone imbalance. Thanks for asking.
According to Dr. Stephen Phinney when you lower carbs below 50 grams a day your kidneys stops retaining sodium and dumps it and then potassium. Low carb diets are diuretic in nature. He recommends adding some extra salt and Potassium especially when active as he deals with fat adapted athletes. He also recommends addressing any magnesium deficiency because magnesium is needed for potassium to enter one's cells. If one' is magnesium is deficient it can lead to potassium deficiency. Some people are taking magnesium that is not bioavailable. Think one of the best forms is magnesium glycinate which also does not cause diarrhea. Magnesium, calcium, sodium and potassium work together. You need enough of all of them each day. The amount one needs will differ from person to person.
Great content! One small mention though, carnivores sometimes eat the belly first simply because they feel that is the vulnerable spot of their prey, and attack there first. It’s like when you have a piece of whole fish with spine on your plate, you start with the softer parts first, not going for the little meat covering the bone.
Excellent video! Thanks very informative as im a relatively new switch to mostly animals based diet which has correct a couple health issues from years of high carb and vegetables.
"Glucose and ascorbic acid are closely related and have similar chemical structures. They compete for glucose transporters in the cell membrane and are escorted into the cells by the action of the hormone insulin. We now know that too much glucose not only inhibits the transport of vitamin C into cells, including phagocytic leukocytes, but it also inhibits the stimulation of other processes that are important for the immune system. This competition may explain why large doses of ascorbic acid are necessary to overcome inhibition by glucose."
Second vid I have stumbled up with Dr Cywes - very enlightening!!! Thank you so much. I have been pondering how one can actually help people with blood / bio feedback tests to help people start to look at their metabolic health much much earlier in their lives. Not found anyone in Joburg or SA for that matter that can do this. I would love to be involved in setting this up in South Africa, their is a massive need, of course, lol..... PS please let me know if there is a way your team can tell me the tests to order from a lab in SA and to send over to your team and get feedback and let your team help me interpret where my metabolic health is at. I am in South Africa. Thank you.
That’s me. I had my gallbladder out at 31 years old. My surgeon said it was hamburger and probably never worked. My dad was 10 when his mom had hers out so I probably got it from her he said. But I have never had a problem digesting anything. I was never told to go on a low-fat diet
I’m a Chiropractor and 55 yo figure competitor. When I increase protein to 50% and fat to 45 %. Only carbs from green veggies my blood sugar climbs especially when going into a calorie deficit.
My heals have been numb for a couple of months now on ketovore. Mostly one avocado and meat. I'm going to stop magnesium supplements. It's really hard to figure out our correct balance, which also changes.
Not sure about the fat and salt shortages. I know whenever I have too much protein, constipation follows, and with too much fat it goes the other way. Been pretty easy to keep things in line using that measuring stick. I also get headaches when I am not consuming enough salt (or some thing int he salt). I switch between sea salt, kosher salt, table salt and Himalayan salt in my meals to vary the mineral consumption. So far so good at over 100 days. Not sure where fat adaptation comes in, but I believe I'm pretty close, given my decreased appetite and increased energy and function as I continue to lose weight steadily.
Hahahahahaha….. “Cramps”, I get lower leg cramps that wake me in the middle of the night and I ingest all kinds of electrolytes. I eat animal based and still get these crippling cramps and mostly in the foots. Cure is to get out of bed and stand on the feet. 😮😅 awesome. ❤
Doc. U caught my ear with the comments regarding carnivore and elevated blood sugar. I am keto/im and notice that after i eat sometimes my blood sugar falls - not a big drop but say mid80s to 70s and have also noticed increase of uric acid
I so enjoy listening to both of you… most is over my head! But I’m slowly soaking it in. My ? … I have psoriasis, palms and soles, and I’ve been researching salt. What I understand is salt severely effects T 17 cells to cause autoimmune issues. Doing carnivore is my journey but I’m truly trying to heal this disease. I love salt but I’m so confused! Help!
my dog cannot eat 100% grass fed beef everyday as she develops high histamine = allergy because the beef is dried for 28+days, and such meat increases histamine. Same thing refers to cheese.

@@cutabove9046 keto/carnivore is high in animal/saturated fats, not trans fats. The overwhelming majority of trans fats in the modern human diet comes from vegetable oils.

See u there. Introduce yourself
Electrolytes are weird. I used to use Himalayan pink salt and regularly got muscle cramps. I switched to sea salt and haven't had a cramp since.
I use Redmond's Real salt, mined in Utah.
Gotta make sure the Himalayan salt is real and not dyed regular salt falsely labeled as Himalayan pink salt
Best real sea salt is Redmond's Real Salt
Maybe because is natural iodine in😊
Love it, "we are all learning as we go" 😊
Watched 2nd time and love it

Thank you so much for this talk. I will listen again and take notes.

I am totally blown away by this talk. Thank you Dr. Cywes for educating us. The one thing I struggle with is electrolyte balance on a low carb diet. I am giving it time for my body to balance itself. But I do have extra salt, magnesium and potassium citrate or my energy slumps very low.
love Dr. Cywes ,what a fantastic interview
Of all the promoters of carnivore diet, this doctor is my favorite. I'm looking forward to reading Judy's Book, which just came into my local library, but I wonder how she reconciles the fact that she sells many supplements on her website with what this doctor is saying here. Also, pleased to hear what he says about the fallacy of oxalates.
I think that only for beginners to the diet once you're on it for a while you wean off them I believe.
Judy always says that supplements are a temporary bridge when starting from a state of nutritional deficiency
Love this! Miss you, Diamond!!! 💎
I never knew eating could be so complicated.
It never used to be !
Problem was we were inundated with marketing companies since the fifties wanting to get rich and it’s exploded since then
I agree it’s complicated but we have to weed though it all for our health
It's not complicated in the wild!
Eating isn't. Ur body is

👍🏻❤️ grate job I love to listen to you both 👏🏻
I wish he wouldn't keep interrupting her!
Great* 😊👍
Thanks for the 1 year or so change date for the insulin lowering phase.
Wow! This is very enlightening!
I am first month carnivore, still have diarrhea, but feeling great, many say it takes 3 months to see the changes and have restored my gut.
I think it took members of my household anywhere from a week to six weeks. Just a heads up though, to much electrolytes will cause diarrhea, and if you get constipated try salt. Good luck!
I will have to go back and listen to the whole video again. I started LCHF almost 2 years ago. At one point, my blood work was getting better (except LDL which elevated almost immediately and getting higher and higher as I eat less carbs). My last A1C was higher (5.8), 2 hours postprandial blood glucose also elevated. It makes a lot of sense what Dr. Cywes said in this video. I will have to adjust what I eat and how I eat.
what adjustments did you make?
@@johnf.hebert1409 add back some healthy carbs such as blueberries, manuka honey (just a tiny bit each time) and sweet potatoes. Relaxed my intermittent fasting window. Just had my blood work done and found out I have hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue so reduced exercise to walking and light aerobic (keep heart rate under 120) and avoid exhaustion. So far fiver prick blood test are within normal range. Have to wait a few month to test A1C and lipid panel again.
@@bettywhillDon't be stupid. Carbs are toxic to the body.
I want to see more from Dr Cywes regarding Carnivore. This was a very informative chat. Thank you.
Check out his TH-cam channel. I've learned more accurate information from him than I have from anyone else
What an AWESOME talk. THANK YOU. One of the best I've ever seen. Wow
I have been struggling with loose bowels and a light yeast infection since going carnivore. This has been going on for a few months. I gave up dairy for March to see if that would help. Nope. I needed this podcast.
How are you doing now?
@@patrickh709eating a half cup of homemade yogurt each morning helped but when i stopped the loose bowels came back. Working on cutting out coffee to see if that is my issue. And FYI.. it wasn't yeast infection but just a hormone imbalance. Thanks for asking.
According to Dr. Stephen Phinney when you lower carbs below 50 grams a day your kidneys stops retaining sodium and dumps it and then potassium. Low carb diets are diuretic in nature. He recommends adding some extra salt and Potassium especially when active as he deals with fat adapted athletes. He also recommends addressing any magnesium deficiency because magnesium is needed for potassium to enter one's cells. If one' is magnesium is deficient it can lead to potassium deficiency. Some people are taking magnesium that is not bioavailable. Think one of the best forms is magnesium glycinate which also does not cause diarrhea. Magnesium, calcium, sodium and potassium work together. You need enough of all of them each day. The amount one needs will differ from person to person.
Also oxalates/oxalate dumping deplete Mg, Ca etc.
Best bio explanations. Thank you.
Lions have to become vegetarian when they grow old..... Loved the humour and humility from both sides in this talk!
Great video as always. You are looking great Dr. Cywes.
Great educated perspires on carnivore
Thank you!!! I’m taking notes doc🙌
I just subscribed.
Great content! One small mention though, carnivores sometimes eat the belly first simply because they feel that is the vulnerable spot of their prey, and attack there first. It’s like when you have a piece of whole fish with spine on your plate, you start with the softer parts first, not going for the little meat covering the bone.
I lost minimal weight on keto but when I went Carnivore and pushed protein over 100g I am losing a lot of weight
1:25:13 - I imagine it was just a momentary slip - the term meant was cations, rather than protons
Excellent video! Thanks very informative as im a relatively new switch to mostly animals based diet which has correct a couple health issues from years of high carb and vegetables.
"Glucose and ascorbic acid are closely related and have similar chemical structures. They compete for glucose transporters in the cell membrane and are escorted into the cells by the action of the hormone insulin.
We now know that too much glucose not only inhibits the transport of vitamin C into cells, including phagocytic leukocytes, but it also inhibits the stimulation of other processes that are important for the immune system. This competition may explain why large doses of ascorbic acid are necessary to overcome inhibition by glucose."
Wow thank you for sharing your knowledge. Eye opening info!
Judy is a great interviewer!
Don't leave out Dr. Nadir Ali and his Bicycling. Great info
Dr. Nadir Ali has not put out a video in quite a long time. I hope all is well with him.
Second vid I have stumbled up with Dr Cywes - very enlightening!!! Thank you so much. I have been pondering how one can actually help people with blood / bio feedback tests to help people start to look at their metabolic health much much earlier in their lives. Not found anyone in Joburg or SA for that matter that can do this. I would love to be involved in setting this up in South Africa, their is a massive need, of course, lol..... PS please let me know if there is a way your team can tell me the tests to order from a lab in SA and to send over to your team and get feedback and let your team help me interpret where my metabolic health is at. I am in South Africa. Thank you.
That’s me. I had my gallbladder out at 31 years old. My surgeon said it was hamburger and probably never worked. My dad was 10 when his mom had hers out so I probably got it from her he said. But I have never had a problem digesting anything. I was never told to go on a low-fat diet
I’m a Chiropractor and 55 yo figure competitor. When I increase protein to 50% and fat to 45 %. Only carbs from green veggies my blood sugar climbs especially when going into a calorie deficit.
My heals have been numb for a couple of months now on ketovore. Mostly one avocado and meat. I'm going to stop magnesium supplements. It's really hard to figure out our correct balance, which also changes.
Not sure about the fat and salt shortages. I know whenever I have too much protein, constipation follows, and with too much fat it goes the other way. Been pretty easy to keep things in line using that measuring stick. I also get headaches when I am not consuming enough salt (or some thing int he salt). I switch between sea salt, kosher salt, table salt and Himalayan salt in my meals to vary the mineral consumption. So far so good at over 100 days. Not sure where fat adaptation comes in, but I believe I'm pretty close, given my decreased appetite and increased energy and function as I continue to lose weight steadily.
Very deep show Judy. You were so excited and engaged.
Hahahahahaha….. “Cramps”, I get lower leg cramps that wake me in the middle of the night and I ingest all kinds of electrolytes. I eat animal based and still get these crippling cramps and mostly in the foots. Cure is to get out of bed and stand on the feet. 😮😅 awesome. ❤
Doc. U caught my ear with the comments regarding carnivore and elevated blood sugar. I am keto/im and notice that after i eat sometimes my blood sugar falls - not a big drop but say mid80s to 70s and have also noticed increase of uric acid
I so enjoy listening to both of you… most is over my head! But I’m slowly soaking it in. My ? … I have psoriasis, palms and soles, and I’ve been researching salt. What I understand is salt severely effects T 17 cells to cause autoimmune issues. Doing carnivore is my journey but I’m truly trying to heal this disease. I love salt but I’m so confused!
Help!
Thank you for this video! Dr Cywes is AMAZING. I love all your information Dr. Judy.
I ❤ what you do, Judy!
my dog cannot eat 100% grass fed beef everyday as she develops high histamine = allergy because the beef is dried for 28+days, and such meat increases histamine. Same thing refers to cheese.
Carnivores shd eat whole animals
There you are!!!
My sodium goes low, but I went to hospital, and they did blood test to see what electrolyte was low. They put on a sodium IV.
