Last year two days before my birthday, I was involved in a three car crash and sustained several sacral fractures. I was hospitalised for nine days which meant I was on an awful diet, very low protein, no eggs for breakfast, just an assortment of cereals and sugar-laden fruit yoghurt . When I finally got home I went straight back on high protein carnivore and at my six week X-ray and follow up the surgeon was extremely surprised at how well I had healed. The birthday in question was my 80th 🎉
During pregnancies I increased my protein to 80-100 grams a day. Family genetics have both sides with strong muscles and sturdy builds. My 1st son rolled over from his back to stomach at 10 days old. I couldn't believe it so I rolled him back, walked across the room and watched him do it again. My 2nd son held his head up off my shoulder at 5 days. My mother in law has 7 kids and 5 grandkids and was holding him at 2 weeks. He held his head off her shoulder for a full minute, she was in shock. All my friends and my sister who had pregnancies around the same time were eating cereal with fruit for breakfast, lots of carbs grains and veg and none of those babies had near the physical strength or development. I ate eggs every morning, meat sandwiches for lunch and 8-10 oz of meat/ chicken for dinner
My third pregnancy, I ate fish and meat, and my son was born with a 99 percentile head 😂....the medical professionals were freaking out and wanted me to come in every two weeks for monitoring...I totally knew this was expected just from reading basic public research articles. Prepping for my 5th pregnancy now all Carnivore.
My daughter and so. In law struggled with pregnancy once they switched to carnivore they got pregnant and carried to term for a strong healthy little boy. Thanks to you, Dr Berry and everyone in the carnivore community - Steak and Butter Gal, Dr Kiltz, Kelly Hogan too many to mention - God bless you all!
I have been watching a lot of interviews of Dr. Ken Berry and I have noticed that he has greatly improved by not frequently interrupting and letting the interviewee finish their talk first before asking or reacting. Great job, Dr.!
My sister is a Reg dietitian and years ago when the RDA came out with these numbers she figured out how much protein I needed for me, I weighed 102lbs. She told me being a woman I shouldn't go over 27 grams. Suffice to say she gave me loads of bad information over the years.
When I got pregnant I was 125, ate 50-60 grams protein a day minimum. After my 2nd month I bumped it to 80-100 grams. I was hungry! Having 8oz BBQ burger with cheese was easy, that's what I was craving. That was in 1986-87 and I had learned most of the dietary advice in the news, magazines and books was wrong. Beef, eggs, cholesterol, milk, margarine instead of butter, sugar instead of fat. It's crazy
I received a lot of flak for “overeating” protein,fat and everything else when I was pregnant. So I simply resigned myself to becoming porky like my Mom and Grandmother. Funny how my post-partum waistline remained so trim.😮
I started down the path the led me to carnivore with Dr Lyon! I starting dramatically increasing my protein after listening to long form podcasts with her. I felt so much better when I got that 30g protein for breakfast. That’s what brought me to carnivore, because it was unsustainable for me to get 110g protein a day (my ideal body weight) without eating tons of meat. Once I took out all the plant based stuff (homemade sourdough bread, lentils, homemade sourdough pasta, etc), and started eating BBBE (with some blue cheese, some raw milk and some spices), wow I feel amazing.
@Beth-77 I just try to eat when I’m hungry. I’m breastfeeding, so I just want to eat enough for that. I usually eat 2 or 3 times a day. My breakfast is 3-4 egg French omelette (with blue cheese and ground beef) and bacon. Lunch is tuna/sardines or beef leftovers. Dinner is some sort of red meat (burgers, plain ground beef, chuck roast, lamb loin chops) with a side of seafood or chicken. I think you have to find what you love. I absolutely love chuck roast, I love lamb chops, I love shrimp, I love Buffalo wings (franks hot sauce + butter), so any combination of those things is delightful for me and I can easily eat a ton of that.
@@fantasticprincipessaI don’t count my macros at all, but if I had to estimate, I probably get between 90-120 g protein. I do try to hit 30g protein per meal. (Edit: because of Dr Lyon, I started calculating the protein in everything last year, so I got pretty good at estimating protein amount in meals just by looking at it) I’m 5’2, and I weigh 114lb, so I’m roughly in the ballpark of 1g protein/pound of body weight.
@@Julia29853 you'll get to like it. My whole life I hated meat. Loved flour products best. Now it's been 3 years carnivore and I can't look at breads, cakes, pasta... Just keep trying, give it time.
@@Julia29853 I was the same lol omg And now I just really enjoyed cold short beef ribs from yesterday for bfast. I can eat now if I'm doing OMAD easy 600 grams ribeye steak! And many times I want more! Sometimes when doing high fat I'll just top it with lots of fat :) Best wishes!!! And lots of health and love.
That was an interventional study, but the protein source was Boost shakes... the ingredients are: corn syrup, sugar, vegetable oil... so yeah, um, it's the protein that damages your arteries...
I eat keto, increased my protien to approximately 130g, started to lift weights and I'm loosing body fat. I have my 6month HBA1C blood test tomorrow. Im hopeful it will finally be no longer in diabetic range 🤞
Everything in body depends on protein. Enzymes, hormones, all function processes, organ tissues, skeleton (bones contains about 40 pct of proteins, calcium is binded to this protein, without protein you will loose bone mass even you have lot of calcium), body repairs every single day which means another protein. If body have no sugar, burns fat. Until you have soem storage fat, your body protein is safe. Burning protein is for body more dangerous than burning storage fat, for example damaged hearth muscle due to lack of protein may cause death, in case of protein starving body burns own muscle / tissue protein, hearth is a muscle. Fat makes much lower (almost none) insulin waves. Changing animal protein instead of sugar as primary energy source and high protein intake is way to success. Your body have enough fat in your belly, so let him to take this fat. Enough protein in addition makes hormones works. Properly working hormones do their job and you are loosing weight.
The more protein I eat, the better I feel. When I was pregnant with my son, my midwife kept pushing more protein, more protein. Thats when I realized how much better I felt when eating tons of protein. Now most of my diet is based on protein.
I had the same. Midwife told me that I needed 100g/protein every day to have a healthy pregnancy. I was a vegetarian adding protein shakes to get close to the 100g.. I couldn't see any more tofu dogs and started eating meat again! Healthy baby girl arrived! With my son, I just opted for meat - I thought this must be a boy, he needs the protein :) LOL! I was right!
@@Hikay-f7nI knew I was pregnant before I even missed my period because I started craving so much meat. I knew something was up because I was basically only eating meat a few times a month. 😂
C19 woke me up that government health authorities were not looking out for my best interests and I needed to look after myself and not listen to their 'dietary guidelines', so.. I moved away from SAD to keto then carnivore and now ketovore. The result was I lost a small amount of weight maybe 2kgs, but gained muscle so about the same weight as before.. 185cm/87kg. My younger soccer teammates have all remarked on my muscles, leanness and changes in performance. I am 63. I too have been shocked at the difference. So easy. The benefits in increasing protein, fats, dairy and good oils and removing carbs, has lead to dramatically better health overall. Brain fog gone, flat line high energy to power a small city (I play 2 games of soccer back to back now), sleep like the dead, heal even faster than I did before, I lift 2x the weights than I EVER had and recover from muscle soreness in the same day.. NEVER happened before, running speed and acceleration increased, bowels and gut improved, flatulence.. sorry, improved!! etc.. All these things were dropping off, failing with age and I dismissed them as normal. BS. DO NOT settle for this decline! It is not normal and is 100% not necessary. Oh yes, and the peripheral cardiac disease, which I did not know I had!!, nasty rashes on lower legs, numbness on sole of foot and toes, loss of leg hair to mid calf.. gone! I was headed for a nasty outcome with that! Phew!
I’m on 3rd week of ketovore, I prefer carnivore but have some veggies to meet my husband in the middle. Have good workouts but calcifications in shoulders so dealing with a frozen shoulder. It’s healing faster than normal though. I contribute it to my diet! 🙏🏼
Keep going. Add MCT oil for your joints, nerves, connective tissues and bowels and also for the calcium in your joints. Within 4-6 weeks you should notice a dramatic improvement. Feel your pain with your husband, meeting in the middle.. same with my vege partner. Oh well! The things we must do. He will come around as your improvements become noticeable.
We call amino acids "proteins" when they are only building blocks for proteins like letters are building blocks for words. I explained it to my 11 year old this way, "Trying to get all of your proteins from plants is like playing scrabble without any vowels. Just because you have letters doesn't mean you can spell all the words you need to spell. Just because you have amino acids doesn't mean you can build all the proteins your body needs for you to be healthy."
Yes, as an ex vegan I am tired of the lies that are told that one can be a vegan or vegetarian and thrive. I just don't see it and am angered that I ever fell for their lines.
No one is arguing that vegan protein is superior to animal protein, not even the delusional vegans think that. They’ve just become nutritionally misguided by allowing themselves to be engulfed in the propaganda against factory farming, which is kind of a separate issue. Vegans are essentially holding themselves hostage nutritionally because they’re mad at factory farming’s mistreatment of animals. The real source of the factory farming requirement is too many humans, so vegans should actually just be Antinatalists and eat small farm pastured animal products.
You shouldn't be proud of lying to your son!!!! Amino acids. The building blocks for protein originate in plants. Therefore plants are the best source of protein. Whole plants are never deficient. Red meat and dairy protein are extremely hard to metabolize and are the root cause of a long list of health issues. I am extremely healthy and much stronger than normal at 77 years. I get my protein from plants!
@@martywilsonlife I am angered by your lies. Take of the blinders, open your eyes and look around. There are healthy, thriving vegans all over. And the numbers are increasing every day. All the longest living, healthiest people on Earth are either vegan or very close to it.
I can attest to this method - in 3 months of following a high protein ketovore diet, I lost 7% body fat (13lbs), gained 9.5lbs of muscle but only lost 3lbs of total weight. For reference I’m 5’5” 160 female. I go to HIIT classes 3-4 times a week. I ate on average around 140-160 grams of protein, less than 20g total carbs, and maybe 60-80grams of fat. Essentially following the KetoMaria Emmerich method. I had 3-5 cheat days where I ate some nonketo chocolate and I didn’t restrict calories- these results are huge and am thrilled with the affect of my body mind and overall health. Animal protein is the key combined with resistance training and minimal carbs. Thank you for all of the valuable information and detailed explanation- it’s kept me even more motivated to uphold this lifestyle change!
My friend who is a senior and a Vegan is dying from Cancer. She won’t eat meat because she says it has Sugar. And on her cancer diet she can’t have Sugar dairy processed foods and meat, bread. She considers it plant keto as she eats Avacado corn tacos with black beans. My heart goes out to her, she is such a sweet person.
When I had gestational diabetes the dietician I saw and the my plate classified beans as a carb for me. Just food for thought for your friend. She might not have the gumption to go carnivore, but some salmon and butter would probably do wonders for her.
@@robyn3349In my humble opinion, if a person has had a long time diet and they get diagnosed with a tragic condition, they should consider eating in the opposite way. Also consider the opposite life style habits because the current one is not working. Like the comment above, even if she took a few bites of salmon or butter and felt the difference, that may be a start.
So true about hip fracture and age. My moms started to get dementia at age 70, she would not exercise and her diet became sugary buns, cereal, and a bit of luncheon meat and veg. I tried to reason, she wouldnt listen. At age 83 and in a home, she fell, hip fracture. She was gone on week later. I am 68 and have changed my diet over the past 2 years. I wouldnt lie, it was hard to go from SAD diet to keto to ketovore/carnivore. My chronic pain is gone so its now its easier to exercise.
Fabulous interview. Dr. Lyon answered so many questions I had about dietary protein and cleared the air of all the myths. I'm definitely going to pick up her book!
THANK YOU!!!! Finally a doctor who talks about how the circumstances and manner in which a study is run affects the stats. Im a statician by trade and so I naturally have NO TRUST in the stats that come from any study unless I become very familiar with who did the study, how was it managed, parameters etc. I cringe when people who do not do research start spouting off percentages.
Research is conducted by a scientist in a laboratory. No individual who reads something is doing research. They are just reading,reviewing, and learning, not researching. Let's get that clear.
You nailed it. I fell in love with statistics in college (didn't end up making it a career), but it was immediately apparent that there are so many ways to manipulate the results of any given study. Integrity at all levels must be scrutinized before the results can be seriously considered. Having said that, I still love statistics. 🙂
If you're doing the Carnivore diet and eating to satiety, you should have sufficient protein intake. Sometimes you'll eat 3-4 lbs. of meat or maybe 1 lb. per meal as long as you feel satiated.
Same with me, I’m very thin just by nature and I don’t eat much food because I just don’t really like it. I like steak and meat and such but I just don’t eat very much. It’s hard for me to eat a lot of food.
I am 67, I have been carnivore for 8 weeks, and I have begun recently begun weights and body building (for all the reasons you talked about) - feeling so much better. Fantastically informative interview. Thank you.
Loved this! I found that for me too much protein (strict carnivore only meat) made my trigs go up. I feel better as ketovore with around 90 protein and a few berries or greens, then my triglycerides go down and HDL still high. I weigh 115. Age 73, zero CAC Fasting insulin 4.1
So exciting hearing the views on the protein especially the first meal of the day and how much. We peeps out here do not know these things if someone does not tell us. Ordering your book also.
Dr.Lyons needs to READ the ROOM! Dr.Berry is saving lives through keto to carnivore and she kept pushing carbs just like she does in her interviews with the body builders! Thank you Dr.Berry for being so patient and trying to still be a gracious host when she pushes carbs and has said several times added fat is not necessary. You’re a blessing Dr.Berry!
I appreciate her since I started out with her, just trying to increase my dietary protein as much as possible, but yeah, it didn’t work for me (sustainability, energy, weight loss) until I heard the carnivore lifestyle. Cutting out the carbs and plants was what worked for me.
YES! Same here! I appreciate her stance on protein however she really encourages people to eat more carbs then getting full on fatty cuts of meat… if you watch more of her videos she has said several times 93:/: 7 ground beef and 90:/: 10 bison have way more fat than is needed in the body and will say to add carbs… my TH-cam feed is bombarded with her content and it really confuses me because I’m not in the season to be heavy weight training and am just happy to be able to walk on my treadmill.. mentally I’m just Not there yet.
@@SheriMorgan-l8iI don’t think it’s necessary to eat carbs. I’m 34, was relatively healthy anyway, but always so tired (3 little kiddos and breastfeeding lol). I feel effortlessly strong and energetic having cut out the carbs and eating mostly meat. I do push-ups and sprints for exercise when I can.
What a great interview! Enjoyed listening as I smashed my 1.5 pounds of NY Strip. I am relieved to hear that there’s really no upper limit of protein a woman can eat. I had trouble last year getting in 100 gms but now am easily passing that daily. I also broke my 2 year weight loss stall. Coincidence? I think not
This is very encouraging to me. Glad you posted this info. I’ve been trying to stick to 80gm protein and less than 20 carbs. and it’s just not satisfying and I haven’t lost the weight like I did when I just kept my carbs ultra low and didn’t measure protein. Just satiety.
I have friend who is near my same age 78. She is a 20 year Vegan who follows Dr John McDougall’s protocol. She has Osteoporosis, arthritis, severe Sarcopenia and needs a walker or wheelchair to get around. She lives in an assistant living facility where she brags she is an inspiration the other women because she eats so healthy. BTW, she has disowned me because I’m carnivore now. Calling me an animal killer and saying I’m contributing to the destruction of the planet thru climate change. 😢
I was just telling my husband who is very slim and 70 years old and losing muscle mass and trying to get off the amount of sugar he eats, to look at the people who are underweight and the people who are overweight who are on the keto and carnivore , meat based diets in other words and they both are benefiting from it , because our body knows what it needs and if you're eating the proper human diet, it'll digest, utilize and nurture, eliminate and heal the way it's supposed to. 😊
This has been so timely and helpful to me I just want to thank you! Even in the well meaning keto/carnivore/low carb spaces there are myths to be debunked. The one saying if you overeat protein it will be stored as glucose the same as carbs has both kept me afraid of "too much", but also confused because that just didn't sound right or logical to me. So I'm very glad to have that debunked. I have been dealing with chronic and serious back injuries my entire life, that also take a big toll on muscles and keeps me in a chronic traumatic response of rebuilding. In the last few weeks I have been purposely upping protein because high fat/mod protein has just not been working for fat loss, esp focused on trying to get rid of the dangerous belly fat. Upping protein and letting the fat fall where it may is exactly the point I've come to. I've even added some whey protein (watching the ingredients and carbs added) because it's hard for me to eat enough. But some people are very anti-protein shake. It's good to hear that I'm basically on the right track for me now. It's only been a couple of weeks but right away I started feeling a bit better and my sleep noticeably improved, and I have finally been able to fast for 16 hrs between meals. As a hypoglycemic that is massive for me. I had started with your video about signs of not getting enough protein, and this is the perfect follow up. I'll definitely be checking out her videos/podcasts. It's a fascinating subject. Thanks to you both!
I was literally just watching Dr Cywes (carb addiction doc) tell Anthony Chaffee that too much protein is stored as glucose and not to eat too much as a result. I then come here and the advice is the opposite. I swear, trying to take responsibility for your own health by doing research often just leads to being even more confused about what is best.
@@nuancematters I haven't seen that one, but I did see one a few days ago with Cywes saying, or rather loudly declaring, that anyone who said they know how much protein we should eat doesn't know what the hell they're talking about. I did not continue that video, especially since he was basically declaring that he knows how much we should eat, if he knows what "too much" is. It does get very confusing, but that just didn't sit right with me. It doesn't help that in order to make content a lot of people speak on topics they aren't really experts in. I take what they say with a grain of salt and keep my mind and eyes open for actual evidence. We really do have to be our own advocates and figure out what works best for us. There's no one size fits all.
I was in so much pain, felt so exhausted, carrying so much weight in fat, there is no way to do squats, standing up was a heave with the 50 kilogram obesity. For people in despair, sick, fat, hurting, depressed, lied to. Throw away every food LIKE manufactured goblin... eat meat to satiety, in short time you will be able to stand, sit, walk and laugh
Two of my favorite docs. When I decided to go on the carnivore diet and start working out again, the first two books I bought were written by Dr Berry and Dr Lyon😊👍
HomeSteadHow Carnivore TH-cam channel, Kerry just did an interview with Mimi who had been diagnosed with Parkinson's and is now medication-free and symptom-free.
Very grateful for the info I have no idea how I can get all the protein I am supposed to need at 67 to rebuild and maintain muscle. I can't eat that much.
I know what you mean. I'm 59 and at 98 lbs I don't usually eat a lot. I'm trying to eat at least 50-60 grams of protein a day. I try to not eat too many carbs. If I do I eat one slice of Dave's killer bread with tuna or peanut butter and banana. I eat 2 scrambled eggs and cottage cheese in morning with bacon or chicken sausage. I eat grass fed ground beef or salmon with veggies for lunch and dinner. Unsweetened applesauce with berries and flax seeds. I had high blood pressure, so I changed my eating habits and got off those pills.
I went carno about a month ago. My skeletal muscle is already up despite not changing my routine. I definitely wasn't eating enough protein before now!
I’ve really struggled with this on keto because I’ve heard so much that too much protein metabolizes as carbs. I have always preferred higher protein but it just feels like there’s is so much conflicting info
I feel your pain. Anyone who says they have all the answers is full of it. Do what works for you. I've been carnivore since 2015, and a low glycemic diet since 1999. I've found since adopting carnivore that my body likes 70% calories from fat. I'll buy up leaner cuts of beef if on sale (just filled the freezer with 85% ground beef), then just add grass fed butter to make up the difference.
Yes.. its a bit confusing for me.. bc I've heard it turns to glucose or messes with kidneys... ok not sure.. but I've been keto for about 2yrs..i have lost over 100lbs.. and exercise and maintain but alot of info lately gets confusing 4 me.. im really trying my best to be a healthy female
Heather, You're so right and yes, there's conflicting information because doctors don't even know; they're (just like us), trying to figure out things themselves! Also, research needs a lot of money and takes many years to accomplish. I think, our bodies are the most complicated machinery on earth but, we all have to try and see what works for us as we are different in so many ways!
Watch this a few times. Follow any studies or info they've mentioned. Decide why you will or won't follow their recommendations. Write the pros or cons of each belief system.
@@pjequinelady what did you say? Dr. Ede focuses on Psychiatry, so she probably isn't to be concerned with muscles as a priority for her patients who are suffering from mental illness.
@@pamdowns1302What do you eat to get that much protein? I'm 59 and 98 lbs and 5'2". I'd like to be 105 again, but lost weight when I started eating healthier. Cut out sweets, frozen waffles, cookies and lessened my carbs overall. I eat Dave's Killer Bread instead of Home Pride wheat. Grass fed beef, chicken, tuna, salmon, eggs, cheese, spinach, broccoli, berries and unsweetened applesauce with flax seeds. Oh and peanut butter and banana lol. I was on high blood pressure meds. I got it lower by eating better and walking so got off those dang pills.
Thank you so much for this video! I love and admire Dr. Lyon!! I have to keep my calories very low (62 yo small frame). Are premier protein shakes bad for me? They have low calories and high protein so I use them once per day. Thanks and God bless you both!❣️🙏
Gloria... just stick to what you are eating. I'm on meat, some lamb, eggs & bacon. Plus a slight variation now and again. That's basically what my body will tolerate. It healed my 30 year old stomach problems. 😊
@@karenreaves3650as soon as I got rid of the grain, oats, breads and all the other high starches my inflammation went away!!! So I’m not going back to that kind of her grocery list ever again!
She's at least done her homework, she comes up short of perfect, but then again most of us do. Even Dr Berry has learned and changed on his journey, give her some time and more research, she'll get there.
This is amazing advice: Next month on the same date I want you to be a little bit stronger than you are right now, and when it comes to sprinting I want you to be a little bit faster. However strong you are, however fast you are right now I want you to be a little bit stronger. This brings it down to a shorter term goal that is achievable and takes the pressure off to meet quotas, etc.
This interview, and education regarding proteins for humans, and women more specifically, was truly a gift! Thank you for having such a well educated and articulate guest Dr. to share her knowledge with us. God bless you!
Love her - she's a font of knowledge and wisdom when it comes to aging well and strong. Thanks for having her on and for the great job picking her brain. Her book is super - highly recommend!
And this proves what? While their work was great back in the day, there is so much more to discuss in regards to findings, studies, and the new emphasis on carnivore, omnivore, and Keto.

27:49 What does she mean by a ketogenic diet there ? Because as I understand it, the carnivore diet is a ketogenic diet, and it's very easy for to eat enough more than adequate protein on it. The harder part was adding enough fat. Does she mean very high fat ketogenic diet where you try to maximize ketosis, for example for epilepsy patients ? I can see how there one might have to be careful to still add enough protein. But eating that high-fat actually takes quite some effort to do. From my experience, eating just meat you'll have more than enough protein before you even meet your fat macro ( I have to add fat to meet it )

55 yo male, 83 kg bodyweight, seriously into weightlifting since 2018. I eat 200g of animal protein every day, all from whole food sources ( no protein powders ), and less than 50g daily carbs. I gained about 10 to 12 kg (my estimate) of lean mass since I started lifting.
I’m 5’1” 37 years old. Pregnant 3rd one , and I’ve been eating over 1/2lb ground beef daily . I was 116lbs before I got pregnant. Now I’m pregnant and weight 148lbs.
Yes I’d eat more meat too. Eat less starchy below ground veg and carb. I was 51 and 140 was my top weight and I struggled carrying that much. That baby ended up over 9 pounds.
Love Equip Carol. I also have egg life wraps with butter. I put equip in my coffee with butter for an evening treat. Decaf coffee of course. Awesome. I get about 100g a day
I’ve gotten used to them, the wraps. I put lunch meat in them for a quick roll up lunch. Honestly I’m just not hungry!!!!! When I cut out carbs my hunger goes away. But I still eat breakfast lunch and dinner. I skipped meals in my 20s 30s and I think it made me gain in my 40s.
1 gram of protein per pound of body weight! Boom! 🌴 No upper limit of protein for humans has been established. No lower limit of carbs for humans has been established.
My healthy, fit 87 yo uncle fell and broke the top of his femur. He was dead within 10 days. Not from the hip break, but from infection from the surgery.
Some people are naturally defined and chiseled in the face, especially those with very low body fat. I wouldn't automatically assume that they have had buccal fat removed. She is very pretty.
Dr Lyons is naturally so pretty, and personally I prefer a natural look. Here in our home we think she has undergone some procedure to pump up her lips. Which of course is her prerogative. After all she is what Dr Berry has called “a grown-ass adult.”
My question is “ how does the body absorb that much protein?” How does it break it down to be absorbable?” or what is needed to help it break down in the body for absorption?
After a few days of thinking about Dr.Lyons maybe her next book could include more fat sources from fat and cut the carbs she advises… she definitely believes in macro calorie intake for weight loss not so much on healing the root cause… seems like more People are quitting carnivore due to the gaining weight struggle. Dr.Berry mentioned he is tightening up his fasting window to Get back on track.. thank you for your honesty Dr.Berry!
One gram of protein each day from animal products for every pound of lean body mass. That's easy to remember, and it works. The "lean body mass" qualifier is important as so many are fluffy these days.
being fluffy I use Ideal body weight to calculate my protein needs, even if i never get to ideal because i lift and weight train because i want to stay strong and erect for my next 50 yrs
@@judiumstead5484 Using ideal body weight is fine, of course. Most people's ideal body weight corresponds to on the order of 20% body fat. So (0.80)(ideal body weight in lbs) provides a similar target for daily protein consumption in grams. Using lean body mass is a bit more accurate - but these are ballpark targets anyway.
Love the interview, but i have noticed the trend of carnivore drs pulling in interviews with not 100 percent carnivores .. they tend to slip in carbs in the interviews, and yes, they have great points on protein, but for some, it may confuse them on, so whats what ...
6:00 .37 grams per pound Minimum Animal based proteins 7:36 two groups of women 7:50 .7 grams 25% Plus exercise loss less muscle tissue 8:55 6 or 7% lean body mass loss
It would be extremely hard to get enough protein from a plant based diet. Amino acid deficiency can cause all sorts of mental health problems. Factor in poor digestion of protein due to zinc deficiency and other causes and you’ve got a major problem.
You take what you need or want at any given time on your journey. No one will be 100% in agreement. For me, it’s her reliance on plants and fiber but more the fact that she hasn’t included quantum biology and circadian rhythm protocols in her daily regimen. She has stated that it’s on her list but she hasn’t done it yet. So that’s a major blind spot as well. It’s not just diet.
Yep. All carbs do is gum up the works. Surprised she would say that I didn’t catch that… won’t listen ever again to someone who says something like that. We know that activates the Randle cycle immediately. Thanks cuz I’m out…
@@lynnecobb9399 You need to work it out yourself. Firstly, there are online calculators you can start with - based on age, gender, weight etc. That gives you a solid starting point. From there, you can tweak over time based on your results. Your needs may also change over time. There absolutely is an answer, but no-one here can work it out for you. Everyone wants to take the easy pill to good health. It doesn't work that way.
The VA nutritionist recommends lower amount of protein and fats and more carbohydrates. I obviously didn't listen to her, because if i had id be sick and hardly able to function. I couldn't believe what was coming out of her mouth.
Dr. Berry can you please recommend a digestive enzyme with HCL that Dr. Lyon talks about in the video. My mother is 62 years old and has trouble with breaking down meat. She just wants to give up. P.S. Dr. Lyon is Amazing! And Beautiful too! 💗
See, this pisses me off. The “lean bodyweight calculators” and what I think I should weigh, have me anywhere between 97-117 pounds because I am 5-0”. Bullshit. If I eat LESS than 125-135g of beef per day I am HUNGRY AND UNSATIATED!! I heard Dr Lyon say to a woman’s question in this interview who is close to my height and age that eating 117g of protein was too high. What the hell?? I eat a pound of beef over 2-3 meals, plus eggs, sometimes bacon and I eat butter. That is 95% of the variety of my food intake. Sometimes I have sauerkraut or pickles. If I don’t eat 120-135g of protein then I will keep foraging (eating) and it’s likely not going to be meat. I don’t think anyone knows exactly what each person needs to eat.

I’ve biked my whole life, hiked, paddled canoes/rafts, and played tennis as a teenager. So, yes, I believe I built skeletal muscle in my forniture years. I don’t want to lose that. I want the fat percentage to decrease because it is unnecessary.

As my hero said only humans r arrogant enough to say how much protein? How much fats.... animals don't think like that... if humans don't interfere just take away is ignore carbs... as its not essential..but substitute with fats n protein to satiety...listen to ur body
Thoroughly enjoyed the conversation and information both. I've always eaten plenty of beef and eggs and other animal products and still do, but without all the other, but I have for myself increased the fat with carnivore and even make my own bone broth and I have had a lot of benefits since I've been doing that . I have taken the collagen and protein supplements whether it was in pill or powder form in the past, but I can really tell the difference of getting those nutrients from the the source! Thank you. 😊
6'1" male 185lbs, I eat approximately 6 eggs, 5 bacon strips, 1 cup of HWC mixed with 1cup of whole milk and 1-2lbs of meat a day. With all that, I'm full, yeah I have some cheese with the meat but it's not much. I eat until I'm full and I eat when I'm hungry. I don't force feed and fast 20hrs most work days. Still adding muscle, getting stronger and leaner. I love carnivore
I find myself boggled by the numbers. I can deal with "Eat meat until comfortably stuffed " simple easy, listening to my body. Amazingly, I don't WANT to eat all day, meat is satisfying, filling, ENOUGH. 😊
Right, all those numbers messed me up in the beginning, then I quit the numbers and ate until I was comfortably full or meat didn't taste good. I eat twice a day, not hungry aaaalllll the time. Now the numbers tell me, I eat right. I didn't need the numbers. I'm probably at 60% protein, 40% fat. Any more fat runs right through me.
Well, when we were conned into the SAD lifestyle, we looked out for fat & saturated fat but told to consume protein, usually bars or shakes which were processed.
Fortunately in Spain it’s been traditionally more common to eat real food, no shakes or bars of any kind, just plain food and that includes a lot of animal protein, especially from pork. The traditional Mediterranean diet though is full of carbohydrates, some complex ones like beans, unrefined cereals, fruit and vegetables and olive oil which is our favorite vegetable fat. I have Hashimoto’s so I hardly eat any cereals, refined or unrefined and some vegetables like cruciferous, I naturally dislike. But I love fruit and fruit here is very good, and I’m used to having quite a big amount of fruit so I guess that’s where I get a lot of carbs from and thus I get derailed from true carnivore.
@@pjequinelady No I got that from dr. Cywes’ Carb Addiction Doctor channel. He has/had his own health issues whilst being a bariatric surgeon. You may want to look him up. I’m not familiar with dr. Chaffee. Is he the carnivore doctor who recently reintroduced vegetables in his diet, to everyone’s surprise ?
as far as her saying more that 50 g of protein won't contribute to muscle synthesis, tell that to millions who intermittent fast and lift weights. they aren't suffering a lack of muscle because according to Miss Lyons, they're only utilizing 50 g.
It should be based on ideal weight right? An obese or anorexic person still needs about the right amount of protein based on ideal weight not actual weight.
Last year two days before my birthday, I was involved in a three car crash and sustained several sacral fractures. I was hospitalised for nine days which meant I was on an awful diet, very low protein, no eggs for breakfast, just an assortment of cereals and sugar-laden fruit yoghurt . When I finally got home I went straight back on high protein carnivore and at my six week X-ray and follow up the surgeon was extremely surprised at how well I had healed. The birthday in question was my 80th 🎉
❤
Wow, thank you for sharing and Go Sarah Go! How many grams of protein to you eat daily? 🥰
🤩 🎉❤
AMAZING! 🙏🏼❤️
Beautiful story.
During pregnancies I increased my protein to 80-100 grams a day. Family genetics have both sides with strong muscles and sturdy builds. My 1st son rolled over from his back to stomach at 10 days old. I couldn't believe it so I rolled him back, walked across the room and watched him do it again. My 2nd son held his head up off my shoulder at 5 days. My mother in law has 7 kids and 5 grandkids and was holding him at 2 weeks. He held his head off her shoulder for a full minute, she was in shock. All my friends and my sister who had pregnancies around the same time were eating cereal with fruit for breakfast, lots of carbs grains and veg and none of those babies had near the physical strength or development. I ate eggs every morning, meat sandwiches for lunch and 8-10 oz of meat/ chicken for dinner
Wow, that really speaks volumes. My twins were well into their 3rd month before self supporting their heads!
Wow that's amazing
I didn't eat that much protein but I can confirm, my sweet Baby is strong af and develops so much better and quicker than girls her age.
My third pregnancy, I ate fish and meat, and my son was born with a 99 percentile head 😂....the medical professionals were freaking out and wanted me to come in every two weeks for monitoring...I totally knew this was expected just from reading basic public research articles. Prepping for my 5th pregnancy now all Carnivore.
@@holistic_Ology
Fantastic, all best wishes!
My daughter and so. In law struggled with pregnancy once they switched to carnivore they got pregnant and carried to term for a strong healthy little boy. Thanks to you, Dr Berry and everyone in the carnivore community - Steak and Butter Gal, Dr Kiltz, Kelly Hogan too many to mention - God bless you all!
I have been watching a lot of interviews of Dr. Ken Berry and I have noticed that he has greatly improved by not frequently interrupting and letting the interviewee finish their talk first before asking or reacting. Great job, Dr.!
My sister is a Reg dietitian and years ago when the RDA came out with these numbers she figured out how much protein I needed for me, I weighed 102lbs. She told me being a woman I shouldn't go over 27 grams. Suffice to say she gave me loads of bad information over the years.
When I got pregnant I was 125, ate 50-60 grams protein a day minimum. After my 2nd month I bumped it to 80-100 grams. I was hungry! Having 8oz BBQ burger with cheese was easy, that's what I was craving. That was in 1986-87 and I had learned most of the dietary advice in the news, magazines and books was wrong. Beef, eggs, cholesterol, milk, margarine instead of butter, sugar instead of fat. It's crazy

@caseybuckley896,
That's terrible. :( What's even worse is your sister went to school to help people and thought she was helping you as well.
The AMA system is a joke.
I received a lot of flak for “overeating” protein,fat and everything else when I was pregnant. So I simply resigned myself to becoming porky like my Mom and Grandmother. Funny how my post-partum waistline remained so trim.😮
I started down the path the led me to carnivore with Dr Lyon! I starting dramatically increasing my protein after listening to long form podcasts with her. I felt so much better when I got that 30g protein for breakfast. That’s what brought me to carnivore, because it was unsustainable for me to get 110g protein a day (my ideal body weight) without eating tons of meat. Once I took out all the plant based stuff (homemade sourdough bread, lentils, homemade sourdough pasta, etc), and started eating BBBE (with some blue cheese, some raw milk and some spices), wow I feel amazing.
@Beth-77 I just try to eat when I’m hungry. I’m breastfeeding, so I just want to eat enough for that. I usually eat 2 or 3 times a day. My breakfast is 3-4 egg French omelette (with blue cheese and ground beef) and bacon. Lunch is tuna/sardines or beef leftovers. Dinner is some sort of red meat (burgers, plain ground beef, chuck roast, lamb loin chops) with a side of seafood or chicken. I think you have to find what you love. I absolutely love chuck roast, I love lamb chops, I love shrimp, I love Buffalo wings (franks hot sauce + butter), so any combination of those things is delightful for me and I can easily eat a ton of that.
Hi, may. I ask you, among those three meals that you have every day, how many grams of protein you consume?
@@fantasticprincipessaI don’t count my macros at all, but if I had to estimate, I probably get between 90-120 g protein. I do try to hit 30g protein per meal. (Edit: because of Dr Lyon, I started calculating the protein in everything last year, so I got pretty good at estimating protein amount in meals just by looking at it) I’m 5’2, and I weigh 114lb, so I’m roughly in the ballpark of 1g protein/pound of body weight.
@@Julia29853 you'll get to like it. My whole life I hated meat. Loved flour products best.
Now it's been 3 years carnivore and I can't look at breads, cakes, pasta...

Best wishes!!! And lots of health and love.
That was an interventional study, but the protein source was Boost shakes... the ingredients are: corn syrup, sugar, vegetable oil... so yeah, um, it's the protein that damages your arteries...

Everything in body depends on protein. Enzymes, hormones, all function processes, organ tissues, skeleton (bones contains about 40 pct of proteins, calcium is binded to this protein, without protein you will loose bone mass even you have lot of calcium), body repairs every single day which means another protein. If body have no sugar, burns fat. Until you have soem storage fat, your body protein is safe. Burning protein is for body more dangerous than burning storage fat, for example damaged hearth muscle due to lack of protein may cause death, in case of protein starving body burns own muscle / tissue protein, hearth is a muscle. Fat makes much lower (almost none) insulin waves. Changing animal protein instead of sugar as primary energy source and high protein intake is way to success. Your body have enough fat in your belly, so let him to take this fat. Enough protein in addition makes hormones works. Properly working hormones do their job and you are loosing weight.
How are you lifting? Slow burn?

The more protein I eat, the better I feel. When I was pregnant with my son, my midwife kept pushing more protein, more protein. Thats when I realized how much better I felt when eating tons of protein. Now most of my diet is based on protein.
My son was 10 pounds when he was born and my midwife said he was built like a linebacker 😅
I had the same. Midwife told me that I needed 100g/protein every day to have a healthy pregnancy. I was a vegetarian adding protein shakes to get close to the 100g.. I couldn't see any more tofu dogs and started eating meat again! Healthy baby girl arrived! With my son, I just opted for meat - I thought this must be a boy, he needs the protein :) LOL! I was right!
@@Hikay-f7nI knew I was pregnant before I even missed my period because I started craving so much meat. I knew something was up because I was basically only eating meat a few times a month. 😂
C19 woke me up that government health authorities were not looking out for my best interests and I needed to look after myself and not listen to their 'dietary guidelines', so.. I moved away from SAD to keto then carnivore and now ketovore.
The result was I lost a small amount of weight maybe 2kgs, but gained muscle so about the same weight as before.. 185cm/87kg. My younger soccer teammates have all remarked on my muscles, leanness and changes in performance. I am 63. I too have been shocked at the difference. So easy.
The benefits in increasing protein, fats, dairy and good oils and removing carbs, has lead to dramatically better health overall.
Brain fog gone, flat line high energy to power a small city (I play 2 games of soccer back to back now), sleep like the dead, heal even faster than I did before, I lift 2x the weights than I EVER had and recover from muscle soreness in the same day.. NEVER happened before, running speed and acceleration increased, bowels and gut improved, flatulence.. sorry, improved!! etc..
All these things were dropping off, failing with age and I dismissed them as normal. BS. DO NOT settle for this decline! It is not normal and is 100% not necessary.
Oh yes, and the peripheral cardiac disease, which I did not know I had!!, nasty rashes on lower legs, numbness on sole of foot and toes, loss of leg hair to mid calf.. gone! I was headed for a nasty outcome with that! Phew!
I’m on 3rd week of ketovore, I prefer carnivore but have some veggies to meet my husband in the middle. Have good workouts but calcifications in shoulders so dealing with a frozen shoulder. It’s healing faster than normal though. I contribute it to my diet! 🙏🏼
❤
I wonder how quickly my frozen shoulder would have healed had I been ketovore at the time…? 🤔
Frozen shoulder can be due to menopause too.
Keep going. Add MCT oil for your joints, nerves, connective tissues and bowels and also for the calcium in your joints. Within 4-6 weeks you should notice a dramatic improvement.
Feel your pain with your husband, meeting in the middle.. same with my vege partner. Oh well! The things we must do. He will come around as your improvements become noticeable.
Heard frozen shoulder is a hormone issue
We call amino acids "proteins" when they are only building blocks for proteins like letters are building blocks for words. I explained it to my 11 year old this way, "Trying to get all of your proteins from plants is like playing scrabble without any vowels. Just because you have letters doesn't mean you can spell all the words you need to spell. Just because you have amino acids doesn't mean you can build all the proteins your body needs for you to be healthy."
Jim,
Great explanation 👍👏
Yes, as an ex vegan I am tired of the lies that are told that one can be a vegan or vegetarian and thrive. I just don't see it and am angered that I ever fell for their lines.
No one is arguing that vegan protein is superior to animal protein, not even the delusional vegans think that. They’ve just become nutritionally misguided by allowing themselves to be engulfed in the propaganda against factory farming, which is kind of a separate issue. Vegans are essentially holding themselves hostage nutritionally because they’re mad at factory farming’s mistreatment of animals. The real source of the factory farming requirement is too many humans, so vegans should actually just be Antinatalists and eat small farm pastured animal products.
You shouldn't be proud of lying to your son!!!! Amino acids. The building blocks for protein originate in plants. Therefore plants are the best source of protein. Whole plants are never deficient. Red meat and dairy protein are extremely hard to metabolize and are the root cause of a long list of health issues. I am extremely healthy and much stronger than normal at 77 years. I get my protein from plants!
@@martywilsonlife
I am angered by your lies. Take of the blinders, open your eyes and look around. There are healthy, thriving vegans all over. And the numbers are increasing every day. All the longest living, healthiest people on Earth are either vegan or very close to it.
I can attest to this method - in 3 months of following a high protein ketovore diet, I lost 7% body fat (13lbs), gained 9.5lbs of muscle but only lost 3lbs of total weight. For reference I’m 5’5” 160 female. I go to HIIT classes 3-4 times a week. I ate on average around 140-160 grams of protein, less than 20g total carbs, and maybe 60-80grams of fat. Essentially following the KetoMaria Emmerich method. I had 3-5 cheat days where I ate some nonketo chocolate and I didn’t restrict calories- these results are huge and am thrilled with the affect of my body mind and overall health. Animal protein is the key combined with resistance training and minimal carbs. Thank you for all of the valuable information and detailed explanation- it’s kept me even more motivated to uphold this lifestyle change!
My friend who is a senior and a Vegan is dying from Cancer. She won’t eat meat because she says it has Sugar. And on her cancer diet she can’t have Sugar dairy processed foods and meat, bread. She considers it plant keto as she eats Avacado corn tacos with black beans. My heart goes out to her, she is such a sweet person.
When I had gestational diabetes the dietician I saw and the my plate classified beans as a carb for me. Just food for thought for your friend. She might not have the gumption to go carnivore, but some salmon and butter would probably do wonders for her.
🙏
@@robyn3349In my humble opinion, if a person has had a long time diet and they get diagnosed with a tragic condition, they should consider eating in the opposite way. Also consider the opposite life style habits because the current one is not working. Like the comment above, even if she took a few bites of salmon or butter and felt the difference, that may be a start.

So true about hip fracture and age. My moms started to get dementia at age 70, she would not exercise and her diet became sugary buns, cereal, and a bit of luncheon meat and veg. I tried to reason, she wouldnt listen. At age 83 and in a home, she fell, hip fracture. She was gone on week later. I am 68 and have changed my diet over the past 2 years. I wouldnt lie, it was hard to go from SAD diet to keto to ketovore/carnivore. My chronic pain is gone so its now its easier to exercise.
Fabulous interview. Dr. Lyon answered so many questions I had about dietary protein and cleared the air of all the myths. I'm definitely going to pick up her book!
THANK YOU!!!! Finally a doctor who talks about how the circumstances and manner in which a study is run affects the stats. Im a statician by trade and so I naturally have NO TRUST in the stats that come from any study unless I become very familiar with who did the study, how was it managed, parameters etc. I cringe when people who do not do research start spouting off percentages.
Research is conducted by a scientist in a laboratory. No individual who reads something is doing research. They are just reading,reviewing, and learning, not researching. Let's get that clear.
You nailed it. I fell in love with statistics in college (didn't end up making it a career), but it was immediately apparent that there are so many ways to manipulate the results of any given study. Integrity at all levels must be scrutinized before the results can be seriously considered. Having said that, I still love statistics. 🙂
Having trouble getting enough protein. I get most of it..eating as much as I can.
Love your interviews Dr Berry. I learn a lot thx.
If you're doing the Carnivore diet and eating to satiety, you should have sufficient protein intake. Sometimes you'll eat 3-4 lbs. of meat or maybe 1 lb. per meal as long as you feel satiated.
@@michaelmontgomery727 my point was…I’m lucky to eat one lb of meat in a day. And I’m eating to satiety. So this may not be enough protein.
Same with me, I’m very thin just by nature and I don’t eat much food because I just don’t really like it. I like steak and meat and such but I just don’t eat very much. It’s hard for me to eat a lot of food.

I will order that book today, thanks. 🙏
I appreciate that you interviewed a doctor who supports a mixed diet. It was very informative. Thank you so much for this!
Dr.Lyons needs to READ the ROOM! Dr.Berry is saving lives through keto to carnivore and she kept pushing carbs just like she does in her interviews with the body builders! Thank you Dr.Berry for being so patient and trying to still be a gracious host when she pushes carbs and has said several times added fat is not necessary. You’re a blessing Dr.Berry!
I appreciate her since I started out with her, just trying to increase my dietary protein as much as possible, but yeah, it didn’t work for me (sustainability, energy, weight loss) until I heard the carnivore lifestyle. Cutting out the carbs and plants was what worked for me.
YES! Same here! I appreciate her stance on protein however she really encourages people to eat more carbs then getting full on fatty cuts of meat… if you watch more of her videos she has said several times 93:/: 7 ground beef and 90:/: 10 bison have way more fat than is needed in the body and will say to add carbs… my TH-cam feed is bombarded with her content and it really confuses me because I’m not in the season to be heavy weight training and am just happy to be able to walk on my treadmill.. mentally I’m just
Not there yet.
@@SheriMorgan-l8iI don’t think it’s necessary to eat carbs. I’m 34, was relatively healthy anyway, but always so tired (3 little kiddos and breastfeeding lol). I feel effortlessly strong and energetic having cut out the carbs and eating mostly meat. I do push-ups and sprints for exercise when I can.
Dr Lyons confused me more than she informed me.
ALSO talked about fiber being essential.... :/ ive lived carnivore now for 3 years no fiber yet here i am thriving.

Ugh, she has taken testosterone and Ozempic. She looks weirder every time I see her .
What a great interview! Enjoyed listening as I smashed my 1.5 pounds of NY Strip. I am relieved to hear that there’s really no upper limit of protein a woman can eat. I had trouble last year getting in 100 gms but now am easily passing that daily. I also broke my 2 year weight loss stall. Coincidence? I think not
This is very encouraging to me. Glad you posted this info. I’ve been trying to stick to 80gm protein and less than 20 carbs. and it’s just not satisfying and I haven’t lost the weight like I did when I just kept my carbs ultra low and didn’t measure protein. Just satiety.
I have friend who is near my same age 78. She is a 20 year Vegan who follows Dr John McDougall’s protocol. She has Osteoporosis, arthritis, severe Sarcopenia and needs a walker or wheelchair to get around.

Two of my all time favorites in the same video! I love these interviews from my favorites. This will be good...❤
I was just telling my husband who is very slim and 70 years old and losing muscle mass and trying to get off the amount of sugar he eats, to look at the people who are underweight and the people who are overweight who are on the keto and carnivore , meat based diets in other words and they both are benefiting from it , because our body knows what it needs and if you're eating the proper human diet, it'll digest, utilize and nurture, eliminate and heal the way it's supposed to. 😊
This has been so timely and helpful to me I just want to thank you! Even in the well meaning keto/carnivore/low carb spaces there are myths to be debunked. The one saying if you overeat protein it will be stored as glucose the same as carbs has both kept me afraid of "too much", but also confused because that just didn't sound right or logical to me. So I'm very glad to have that debunked. I have been dealing with chronic and serious back injuries my entire life, that also take a big toll on muscles and keeps me in a chronic traumatic response of rebuilding. In the last few weeks I have been purposely upping protein because high fat/mod protein has just not been working for fat loss, esp focused on trying to get rid of the dangerous belly fat. Upping protein and letting the fat fall where it may is exactly the point I've come to. I've even added some whey protein (watching the ingredients and carbs added) because it's hard for me to eat enough. But some people are very anti-protein shake. It's good to hear that I'm basically on the right track for me now. It's only been a couple of weeks but right away I started feeling a bit better and my sleep noticeably improved, and I have finally been able to fast for 16 hrs between meals. As a hypoglycemic that is massive for me. I had started with your video about signs of not getting enough protein, and this is the perfect follow up. I'll definitely be checking out her videos/podcasts. It's a fascinating subject. Thanks to you both!
I was literally just watching Dr Cywes (carb addiction doc) tell Anthony Chaffee that too much protein is stored as glucose and not to eat too much as a result. I then come here and the advice is the opposite. I swear, trying to take responsibility for your own health by doing research often just leads to being even more confused about what is best.
@@nuancematters I haven't seen that one, but I did see one a few days ago with Cywes saying, or rather loudly declaring, that anyone who said they know how much protein we should eat doesn't know what the hell they're talking about. I did not continue that video, especially since he was basically declaring that he knows how much we should eat, if he knows what "too much" is. It does get very confusing, but that just didn't sit right with me. It doesn't help that in order to make content a lot of people speak on topics they aren't really experts in. I take what they say with a grain of salt and keep my mind and eyes open for actual evidence. We really do have to be our own advocates and figure out what works best for us. There's no one size fits all.

Tell me about your daily food please....and Wt loss
Two of my favorite docs. When I decided to go on the carnivore diet and start working out again, the first two books I bought were written by Dr Berry and Dr Lyon😊👍
Thank you Dr Gabrielle Lyon and Dr Berry for sharing with us.
Dr. Ken, can you make a video about why people with Parkinsons can benefit from the carnivore diet?
Yes, please make that video on Parkinson’s. Another thought is to address folks who find their sleep tanks after adopting a ketogenic lifestyle. 🤔

HomeSteadHow Carnivore TH-cam channel, Kerry just did an interview with Mimi who had been diagnosed with Parkinson's and is now medication-free and symptom-free.
Very grateful for the info I have no idea how I can get all the protein I am supposed to need at 67 to rebuild and maintain muscle. I can't eat that much.
@ellenanneshapiro. Same here. I am a man, and I feel like I'm stuffing my myself trying to get 100 grams, or above, of protein.
I know what you mean. I'm 59 and at 98 lbs I don't usually eat a lot. I'm trying to eat at least 50-60 grams of protein a day. I try to not eat too many carbs. If I do I eat one slice of Dave's killer bread with tuna or peanut butter and banana. I eat 2 scrambled eggs and cottage cheese in morning with bacon or chicken sausage. I eat grass fed ground beef or salmon with veggies for lunch and dinner. Unsweetened applesauce with berries and flax seeds. I had high blood pressure, so I changed my eating habits and got off those pills.
I went carno about a month ago. My skeletal muscle is already up despite not changing my routine. I definitely wasn't eating enough protein before now!
I’ve really struggled with this on keto because I’ve heard so much that too much protein metabolizes as carbs. I have always preferred higher protein but it just feels like there’s is so much conflicting info
I feel your pain. Anyone who says they have all the answers is full of it. Do what works for you. I've been carnivore since 2015, and a low glycemic diet since 1999. I've found since adopting carnivore that my body likes 70% calories from fat. I'll buy up leaner cuts of beef if on sale (just filled the freezer with 85% ground beef), then just add grass fed butter to make up the difference.
Yes.. its a bit confusing for me.. bc I've heard it turns to glucose or messes with kidneys... ok not sure.. but I've been keto for about 2yrs..i have lost over 100lbs.. and exercise and maintain but alot of info lately gets confusing 4 me.. im really trying my best to be a healthy female
Heather,
You're so right and yes, there's conflicting information because doctors don't even know; they're (just like us), trying to figure out things themselves! Also, research needs a lot of money and takes many years to accomplish.
I think, our bodies are the most complicated machinery on earth but, we all have to try and see what works for us as we are different in so many ways!
Watch this a few times. Follow any studies or info they've mentioned. Decide why you will or won't follow their recommendations. Write the pros or cons of each belief system.
@@pjequinelady what did you say? Dr. Ede focuses on Psychiatry, so she probably isn't to be concerned with muscles as a priority for her patients who are suffering from mental illness.
I don’t know how much protein I’m eating day but I would like to know how much I need, I’m 73 years old and I get my protein from eggs and meat.
I eat 1 gramme protein 😮pr pound of ideal body weight eg I'm 69, 5ft & weigh 96lbs so aim for 96 to 100grms pr day 😊
Use Cronometer
I suspect you are female. Follow their suggestions.
How much do you weigh and what's your body height, I will tell you
@@pamdowns1302What do you eat to get that much protein? I'm 59 and 98 lbs and 5'2". I'd like to be 105 again, but lost weight when I started eating healthier. Cut out sweets, frozen waffles, cookies and lessened my carbs overall. I eat Dave's Killer Bread instead of Home Pride wheat. Grass fed beef, chicken, tuna, salmon, eggs, cheese, spinach, broccoli, berries and unsweetened applesauce with flax seeds. Oh and peanut butter and banana lol. I was on high blood pressure meds. I got it lower by eating better and walking so got off those dang pills.
Fascinating woman. Very knowledgeable.
What an excellent podcast. Learned a lot. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for this video! I love and admire Dr. Lyon!! I have to keep my calories very low (62 yo small frame). Are premier protein shakes bad for me? They have low calories and high protein so I use them once per day. Thanks and God bless you both!❣️🙏
It’s an amazing book!! Got it back in December!
I'm not a fan of Dr. Lyons's food shopping list, which has oats, rice, lean beef, and a lot of fruit.I can't eat a lot of those foods.
I won’t eat any of those toxic foods on her list.
She also works out like a beast so she probably needs some carbs to keep weight/muscle on her.
This is her food shopping list
You can make one that is very healthy for "you." ❤
Gloria... just stick to what you are eating. I'm on meat, some lamb, eggs & bacon. Plus a slight variation now and again. That's basically what my body will tolerate. It healed my 30 year old stomach problems. 😊
@@karenreaves3650as soon as I got rid of the grain, oats, breads and all the other high starches my inflammation went away!!! So I’m not going back to that kind of her grocery list ever again!
Excellent interview and I've subscribed to Dr Garbrielle's podcast
She's so impressed with herself, I don't have to be.
Dr. Berry has great patience and grace.
Yea, not a fan.
She's got good info and cares. Be thankful and not so critical.
She's at least done her homework, she comes up short of perfect, but then again most of us do. Even Dr Berry has learned and changed on his journey, give her some time and more research, she'll get there.
This is amazing advice: Next month on the same date I want you to be a little bit stronger than you are right now, and when it comes to sprinting I want you to be a little bit faster. However strong you are, however fast you are right now I want you to be a little bit stronger. This brings it down to a shorter term goal that is achievable and takes the pressure off to meet quotas, etc.
This interview, and education regarding proteins for humans, and women more specifically, was truly a gift!
Thank you for having such a well educated and articulate guest Dr. to share her knowledge with us.
God bless you!
Love her - she's a font of knowledge and wisdom when it comes to aging well and strong. Thanks for having her on and for the great job picking her brain. Her book is super - highly recommend!
Are you implying she's aging well, or possesses the knowledge to tell others how to age well?
@TheCatseyepub Both, actually, though when I said that, I had in mind the latter.
She’s high.
The topic of the importance of protein is not new…I remember reading this in the book “Protein Power” by doctors Michael & Mary Eades from the 90’s.
And this proves what? While their work was great back in the day, there is so much more to discuss in regards to findings, studies, and the new emphasis on carnivore, omnivore, and Keto.
@@martywilsonlife yeah well, all that was discussed in that book 25 years ago. You're just late to the game.

27:49 What does she mean by a ketogenic diet there ? Because as I understand it, the carnivore diet is a ketogenic diet, and it's very easy for to eat enough more than adequate protein on it. The harder part was adding enough fat.
Does she mean very high fat ketogenic diet where you try to maximize ketosis, for example for epilepsy patients ? I can see how there one might have to be careful to still add enough protein.
But eating that high-fat actually takes quite some effort to do. From my experience, eating just meat you'll have more than enough protein before you even meet your fat macro ( I have to add fat to meet it )
Depends how much you can eat a d if you eat high fat meats you would be satiated before you hit a decent amount of protein
2 of my favourite Doctors, a meeting of great minds. Very informative interview, I learnt a lot.
Eat beef, not bugs! Also, I struggle to eat enough to make my protein minimum. Please don't take my beef away!
There is no reason you are struggling with protein unless you're lying. 99.9% are struggling to get enough fat... not protein.
Relax. Nobody is out to get you or your burgers.

Pea protein is so concentrated there are heavy metals that are concentrated along with it...
Evidence please?
I was having stomach pain and had been drinking pea protein shakes. It took me about a year to figure out it was the pea protein causing the pain.
And loaded with oxalate, the drinks are useless, eggs, chicken, beef and fish has all the protein we need, and it's the perfect amino profiles
@@Beef_it_to_be_fit do you ever consider they are loaded with oxalate , want evidence read the plant paradox, full of evidence, humans did not evolve on plant or protein drink mixes, they are just marketing hype, those drinks contain heavy metals and glyphosate from round up weed killers, they litterly dry the plants in the field with a leathel dose of round up ,
@sherylsmith3864 I cant digest
Thank you Dr. Lyon, I just purchased your book. ♥️
55 yo male, 83 kg bodyweight, seriously into weightlifting since 2018. I eat 200g of animal protein every day, all from whole food sources ( no protein powders ), and less than 50g daily carbs. I gained about 10 to 12 kg (my estimate) of lean mass since I started lifting.
I’m 5’1” 37 years old. Pregnant 3rd one , and I’ve been eating over 1/2lb ground beef daily . I was 116lbs before I got pregnant. Now I’m pregnant and weight 148lbs.
That's way to little protein
Yes I’d eat more meat too. Eat less starchy below ground veg and carb. I was 51 and 140 was my top weight and I struggled carrying that much. That baby ended up over 9 pounds.
I struggle everyday to eat enough protein. I just bought me some whey protein to help me get enough protein. 😊
I got equip vanilla protein - made from beef- ! I just add water and pour over ice
I use the Paleo Valley brand bone broth powder. Great stuff.
Excellent Information!
I have to add a equip protein shake everyday to get enough protein. I am a very active 65 yr old and just cant eat that much meat.
Love Equip Carol. I also have egg life wraps with butter. I put equip in my coffee with butter for an evening treat. Decaf coffee of course. Awesome. I get about 100g a day
I’ve gotten used to them, the wraps. I put lunch meat in them for a quick roll up lunch. Honestly I’m just not hungry!!!!! When I cut out carbs my hunger goes away. But I still eat breakfast lunch and dinner. I skipped meals in my 20s 30s and I think it made me gain in my 40s.

Muscle helps with carb intake. Helps the body tolerate glucose.
1 gram of protein per pound of body weight! Boom! 🌴
No upper limit of protein for humans has been established.
No lower limit of carbs for humans has been established.

1 gr of protein per IDEAL body weight…if you are 210 lbs & ur ideal weight would be 160…160gr of protein is what you should aim for.
Grams of protein does not equal grams of meat - keep that in mind!
Love this conversation. I’m 55 and I go by my strength and it’s great. Love meat.
I enjoyed her talk about protein. Wish she talked less about adding carbs

Hate buckle fat removal
Just to clarify for anyone who looks into this, it’s buccal fat removal.
Oh thanks for clarifying! I thought it was the belly fat that hangs over the belt buckle!😂
Some people are naturally defined and chiseled in the face, especially those with very low body fat. I wouldn't automatically assume that they have had buccal fat removed. She is very pretty.
Dr Lyons is naturally so pretty, and personally I prefer a natural look. Here in our home we think she has undergone some procedure to pump up her lips. Which of course is her prerogative. After all she is what Dr Berry has called “a grown-ass adult.”
@@gracevandenbergen😂😂😂
My question is “ how does the body absorb that much protein?” How does it break it down to be absorbable?” or what is needed to help it break down in the body for absorption?
She's got it right on protein but needs to do her research on fiber before making baseless statements...
After a few days of thinking about Dr.Lyons maybe her next book could include more fat sources from fat and cut the carbs she advises… she definitely believes in macro calorie intake for weight loss not so much on healing the root cause… seems like more
People are quitting carnivore due to the gaining weight struggle. Dr.Berry mentioned he is tightening up his fasting window to
Get back on track.. thank you for your honesty Dr.Berry!
Hmmmm she def loves her fruit and veggies
One gram of protein each day from animal products for every pound of lean body mass. That's easy to remember, and it works. The "lean body mass" qualifier is important as so many are fluffy these days.
being fluffy I use Ideal body weight to calculate my protein needs, even if i never get to ideal because i lift and weight train because i want to stay strong and erect for my next 50 yrs
How do I calculate my lean body mass #?
@@judiumstead5484 Using ideal body weight is fine, of course. Most people's ideal body weight corresponds to on the order of 20% body fat. So (0.80)(ideal body weight in lbs) provides a similar target for daily protein consumption in grams. Using lean body mass is a bit more accurate - but these are ballpark targets anyway.
@@territalk1893 it would be your ideal body weight.
@@territalk1893 google ideal body weight chart and use the value for your height.
Love the interview, but i have noticed the trend of carnivore drs pulling in interviews with not 100 percent carnivores .. they tend to slip in carbs in the interviews, and yes, they have great points on protein, but for some, it may confuse them on, so whats what ...
6:00 .37 grams per pound
Minimum
Animal based proteins
7:36 two groups of women
7:50 .7 grams 25%
Plus exercise loss less muscle tissue
8:55 6 or 7% lean body mass loss
Why is she constantly talking about calories? She has some interesting points but am I right that she’s a low fat proponent?
💚 Great interview/conversation, thank you both! Will listen again, so much information. 💚
It would be extremely hard to get enough protein from a plant based diet. Amino acid deficiency can cause all sorts of mental health problems. Factor in poor digestion of protein due to zinc deficiency and other causes and you’ve got a major problem.
Hey Doc, several of the women i have met, i would say have collected a significant amount of protein.I hope they are very healthy!
She had me right up until she mentioned phytonutrients and carbs. Oh well...I guess the rest was good. Maybe.
You take what you need or want at any given time on your journey. No one will be 100% in agreement. For me, it’s her reliance on plants and fiber but more the fact that she hasn’t included quantum biology and circadian rhythm protocols in her daily regimen. She has stated that it’s on her list but she hasn’t done it yet. So that’s a major blind spot as well. It’s not just diet.
Yep. All carbs do is gum up the works. Surprised she would say that I didn’t catch that… won’t listen ever again to someone who says something like that. We know that activates the Randle cycle immediately. Thanks cuz I’m out…
Agree Pabeader!!!
Dr Cywes talks about excess protein being stored as glucose or fat....but what is "excess"
it is hard to eat excess
That which is surplus to your bodies needs. Everyone has different needs.
@@gracevandenbergen yes exactly my point...how do we know how much is excessive? Currently I don't think we can.
@@lynnecobb9399 You need to work it out yourself. Firstly, there are online calculators you can start with - based on age, gender, weight etc. That gives you a solid starting point. From there, you can tweak over time based on your results. Your needs may also change over time. There absolutely is an answer, but no-one here can work it out for you. Everyone wants to take the easy pill to good health. It doesn't work that way.
The VA nutritionist recommends lower amount of protein and fats and more carbohydrates. I obviously didn't listen to her, because if i had id be sick and hardly able to function. I couldn't believe what was coming out of her mouth.
Dr. Berry can you please recommend a digestive enzyme with HCL that Dr. Lyon talks about in the video. My mother is 62 years old and has trouble with breaking down meat. She just wants to give up.
P.S. Dr. Lyon is Amazing! And Beautiful too! 💗
My mom is 69 and takes ox bile capsules to help her digest her food.
See, this pisses me off. The “lean bodyweight calculators” and what I think I should weigh, have me anywhere between 97-117 pounds because I am 5-0”.
Bullshit.
If I eat LESS than 125-135g of beef per day I am HUNGRY AND UNSATIATED!! I heard Dr Lyon say to a woman’s question in this interview who is close to my height and age that eating 117g of protein was too high. What the hell??
I eat a pound of beef over 2-3 meals, plus eggs, sometimes bacon and I eat butter. That is 95% of the variety of my food intake. Sometimes I have sauerkraut or pickles. If I don’t eat 120-135g of protein then I will keep foraging (eating) and it’s likely not going to be meat. I don’t think anyone knows exactly what each person needs to eat.

As my hero said only humans r arrogant enough to say how much protein? How much fats.... animals don't think like that... if humans don't interfere just take away is ignore carbs... as its not essential..but substitute with fats n protein to satiety...listen to ur body
Thoroughly enjoyed the conversation and information both. I've always eaten plenty of beef and eggs and other animal products and still do, but without all the other, but I have for myself increased the fat with carnivore and even make my own bone broth and I have had a lot of benefits since I've been doing that . I have taken the collagen and protein supplements whether it was in pill or powder form in the past, but I can really tell the difference of getting those nutrients from the the source! Thank you. 😊
Lost me at fiber is important
ME TOO!!!
6'1" male 185lbs, I eat approximately 6 eggs, 5 bacon strips, 1 cup of HWC mixed with 1cup of whole milk and 1-2lbs of meat a day. With all that, I'm full, yeah I have some cheese with the meat but it's not much. I eat until I'm full and I eat when I'm hungry. I don't force feed and fast 20hrs most work days. Still adding muscle, getting stronger and leaner. I love carnivore
I find myself boggled by the numbers. I can deal with "Eat meat until comfortably stuffed " simple easy, listening to my body. Amazingly, I don't WANT to eat all day, meat is satisfying, filling, ENOUGH. 😊
Where did we get the notion that it is our birthright to eat all day long? Am I just not American enough? 😮
Right, all those numbers messed me up in the beginning, then I quit the numbers and ate until I was comfortably full or meat didn't taste good.
I eat twice a day, not hungry aaaalllll the time.
Now the numbers tell me, I eat right. I didn't need the numbers.
I'm probably at 60% protein, 40% fat. Any more fat runs right through me.
Well, when we were conned into the SAD lifestyle, we looked out for fat & saturated fat but told to consume protein, usually bars or shakes which were processed.
Fortunately in Spain it’s been traditionally more common to eat real food, no shakes or bars of any kind, just plain food and that includes a lot of animal protein, especially from pork. The traditional Mediterranean diet though is full of carbohydrates, some complex ones like beans, unrefined cereals, fruit and vegetables and olive oil which is our favorite vegetable fat.
I have Hashimoto’s so I hardly eat any cereals, refined or unrefined and some vegetables like cruciferous, I naturally dislike. But I love fruit and fruit here is very good, and I’m used to having quite a big amount of fruit so I guess that’s where I get a lot of carbs from and thus I get derailed from true carnivore.
Dr Robert Cywes had a good way to check. If you’re keto and your A1C is above 5,2, you’re eating too much protein (neoglucogenesis).
@@pjequinelady No I got that from dr. Cywes’ Carb Addiction Doctor channel. He has/had his own health issues whilst being a bariatric surgeon. You may want to look him up. I’m not familiar with dr. Chaffee. Is he the carnivore doctor who recently reintroduced vegetables in his diet, to everyone’s surprise ?
@@4nbop80userno, Dr. Chaffee is the “Plant free MD”
we have very little food waste as well. We bulk buy eggs from the local farm and meat from the butcher. I wrap the meat in foil and that's recyclable.
as far as her saying more that 50 g of protein won't contribute to muscle synthesis, tell that to millions who intermittent fast and lift weights.
they aren't suffering a lack of muscle because according to Miss Lyons, they're only utilizing 50 g.
I’m excited to track, thank you to both of you.
Since 2011 I’ve been doing it. Just got a bit off track, on exercise especially.
It should be based on ideal weight right? An obese or anorexic person still needs about the right amount of protein based on ideal weight not actual weight.
Correct- I have seen many docs say that, IDEAL body weight not current body weight.
