I am the person they mention later in the show. Scott King. This way of eating has literally saved my life. I had assume I was going to die and nearly gave up. This was a last ditch resort for me and was in complete shock it worked. I am off all meds and healthier than ever. Even had a full blood panel this past week for a physical and labs are perfect. I couldn't even stand for more than 10 mins before. Every aspect of my life is better and healthier. 310lbs down and not going to stop. I hope this encourages other. I was hopeless and helpless and this works.
I celebrate your success! How ironic that you had to at your heaviest know that the only place you could get weighed, was a grain scale. When grain and sugar was what led you to being over 600 pounds. Keep up the great work in continuing to staying healthy and fit.
45 years of following the pyramid and I had increasing health issues. Went plant based, 'cos it's healthier, right? Health got worse. Teeth issues lead me to Western A Price and a low carb diet, and my health improved. Low carb eventually became high fat carnivore and ALL my health issues, IBS, gum and periodontal disease, hair loss, arthritis, acne, brain fog, and more went away. I also had unexpected benefits, not needing deodorant, not burning in the sun, my eye sight improved and finding it easy to drop fat and gain muscle, without trying! I'm now post menopausal, 5 years mostly carnivore, and the only person I know of my age who's slim and on not meds.
I am here with you with the deodorant. I also use home made soap (which is same price or cheaper the in store) without any added glycerin and use colloidal silver if needed. Even thou i still sweat like a pig i rarely stink as i execrate so much salt i inhibit all bacterial growth. Using home made soap my skin have no oils for the bacteria to eat (including glycerin). Since i am so salty i attract moisture and my skin is super moist and smooth. I have been inching towards carnivore over 10 years and the biggest changes on keto/carnivore are velvety skin (even thou it was fine before), reduce to no joint pain and improve sleeping and needing less.
Keto took me from 255# to 190#, off all the meds, and my family doctor gave me a standing ovation after seeing my blood work. I am 73 and feel better than I have in 30 years. Ken Berry, MD on TH-cam with the Proper Human Diet. And by the way, I am never hungry on Keto. This guy is spot on!
congrats on going from 215% of my weight to only 140% of my weight. that's both sarcastic, and approving, by the way. which way you take it determines how thick of a skin you have.
@@mattacosta6475 You will do great by staying with the plan, All the meat you want to eat, Beef, pork, chicken or seafood and eggs, butter, cheese. Avoid seed oils, carbs (sugars) & ultra processed foods. Starchy root vegetables, no good! You will be amazed at how addictive sugar is. You will go through withdrawal. But by making the right choices, you will be able to handle this!
Keto is for majority of people, TERRIBLE. Eat in a calorie deficit and achieve the same results, with better vitals and healthier. Really not that hard. Track macros, move more. 4 words that'll save a bunch of these fad diet dumb crap.
I'm 56, there's 3 things I told my Dr. I would NOT give up. 3 B's. Beer, BBQ and bacon. Didn't think of beef, butter. (Eggs are awesome but don't begin with B). Another B is Bourbon. Secrets to life
After I watched the first eight minutes of this video I went in search of Vinnie's documentaries. I found and watched both, then went down the YT rabbit hole of videos on "big food". I'm back to finish this video. I agree with Mike, "it feels like I can't eat anything!"
Beef is what's for dinner. Don't by the lean stuff but you can if for every # of lean you eat 12 oz of fat. Be it tallow,suet or lard it's all good for humans.
oh honey. PLEASE DO NOT donate to them. If you knew how incorrect they were, and how many outright LIES they post, you would be appalled (and not even just to add Vinnie's page back). Please research!
Talking about Devine Intervention…. In my early 20’s I had a serious problem with alcohol. I had learned to like the taste of beer at a very young age and had been kept in check by my parents until I moved out of their house. On my own I was free to do as I pleased and to make a long story short I produced, or probably digressed to the point of drinking Bacardi 151 straight from the bottle and it was the last thing I wanted at night and the first thing I wanted in the morning. I came in late one evening four sheets in the wind and sat down on the couch. The next thing I knew I was sober as a judge and I heard a voice that sounded like thunder. It said, you can keep going they way you are if you want to, but if you do you’re going to be dead. I said, if you help me I will quit. It was all taken away and I never wanted another drop. Thanks be to God he intervened.
❤...l learned this back in 2011 because l was diagnosed with cancer l totally changed my diet....beef chicken turkey potatoes real butter. olive oil...carrots onions garlic beets...eggs....NO MILK ...NO PASTA...NO GRAINS.....❤ feel sooooooo much better....cancer free too btw...❤
My wife and I have been carnivore since January of 22. We've never been healthier. Didn't even realize how much inflammation and swelling was there. Dropped to my intended weight and ill never go back. People who are scared of giving up sweets and bread, do it! The further you get away from it, you won't want it anymore! You won't miss it because it's so not worth everything that comes with it!! Please do it! Get healthy and stop being a government and pharma statistic!! Live a great life feeling wonderful!!
@@limitisillusion7Why? Have you seen any legitimate study that shows the risk of having a high cholesterol is CHF? Not an association. Or is it because of a statin deficiency?
@@stanrobertson There is no way to prove causality. We can only identify associations and make logical inferences. When you find an association and run out of hoops to jump through while trying to disprove causality, that's when you take the hint and declare causality. The hoops available between the association of high LDL and CVD have been thoroughly exhausted. You can only snap yourself with a rubber band so many times before you realize that stretching it too much is the cause of your pain.
@@limitisillusion7 You are right about the difficulty proving causality when it comes to nutrition. What we need to be cautious of is thinking something must be true if it is repeated enough times.
I love Mike Rowe so much. He’s just so fantastic. Smart. Attractive (and not in a “I want to steal you from your wife” kind of way. He’s just an attractive human. Inside and out.
Yes! I feel the same way about Mike Rowe! He's always impressed me as a stellar human being, ever since I started watching "Dirty Jobs" way back in the day. He's just a great guy!
I am 62 and last November I started carnivore. I had been exercising but could not lose fat. Fat is gone, joint pain gone, no desire to consume sugary foods, BP down and I have not been sick.
I almost cant believe how good this podcast was...bravo. The only person that can save you from yourself is you (and Jesus). Stop eating sugar, seed oils, processed foods... shop the outside aisles of the grocery store. Go for walks, make time to take care of yourself, love youself, pray 🙏🏼
Been Carnivore for 2.5 years and have gone from 33o lbs to 190 lbs. No exercise, however I am starting to exercise now just to feel more energy. Love all the benefits I have gotten. Started due to fear that I would not be able to save myself or others when I was 330. Being 6'3" I want to get to 180. Figure to stay this lifestyle forever. I would encourage everyone to give it a shot for 6 months.. Easiest eating style ever. Great episode Mike! Love Vinnie and his honesty.
180!?!?! I'm 6'4" and if I get down to 210 I'm at ~12% body fat. I would not consider myself (not would most others) hypermuscular in any way. Certainly hand never done steroids or even sick to much of a weight training plan for any long term amount of time. I would suggest you add some moderate weight training to preserve muscle mass as you age. You're certainly getting the protein you need on your diet. I think you would be happier at least a lean 200 lbs....

Hooray! It's Carnivore for me! I love the choices. I'm rid of the fibromyalgia, BP meds, and arthritis pains mostly gone, and I'm down 30# in 2 1/2 mo. with a 100#'s to go! 🎉 . Big Pharma doesn't want us to be well because they want the income! The food industry doesn't want us to eat healthy. No to carbs, no to veggies, yes to meats, seafood and water!
ALL junk, ultra processed, Fast foods, seed oils and all diet/high fructose soft drinks GONE!!! 50gms or less of carbohydrates/day. High protein {Lean meat/eggs} Two meals a day and fasting for 19 hours/day. Equals G.I. health, zero bloating and a healthier happy Jack. Yes, markedly decreased to a healthy weight, too. Mikey, Chucky and Vinnie, thank you for all that you do for Humanity. Kudos and Cheers, Mate.
@trollol_ Low energy, this was addressed with a daily two mile walk. The cravings took me about two weeks to get through, but after that. I eliminated all that I've posted above. Read the ingredient label and get very familiar with the ingredients and how they effect the Human body. With just that understanding of the ingredients and their effects on the gut. It will forever change how you see foods from the commercial makers of food items. I find it to be priceless for my bodily improvements in health and quality of life. It's your future. Be there. I do drink morning coffee with a touch of honey. {My only sugar source} and heavy whipping cream. Goodluck and carry on..

In my 20s I was chronically sick working in food service, eating all wrong and had celiac disease that I hadn't been diagnosed with prior. I was 128lbs, skin and bone with insane bloat and no brain function to speak of. Today, in my mid 30s, 140lbs, lean, clear headed, energetic, my diet is on point and I'm a landscape manager with no health issues. These kinds of conversations saved my life. Thank you to people like you putting this message out there. You are what you eat. If you eat crap, you'll be crap. If you eat well, you'll do well physically and financially.
I had pre-diabetes and a very high fasting blood sugar. I immediately went on full carnivore diet, meat, fish, egg, cheese, apple cider vinegar, extra virgin olive oil. I ate as much as I felt I wanted. My fasting blood sugar returned to normal in a few months. I dodged a bullet. I've been carnivore or semi-carnivore ever since. Satiety was a word I only knew in theory, I'd never experienced satiation with food previously unless I had filled my stomach. I saw two doctors and a nutritionist and I nearly had a gastric sleeve operation - nobody never ever talked about carnivore diet to me before.
I watch my life long bestcfriends dear mother totally decline & die after gastric bypass..it was a long 5 plus year nightmare. She was better off being semi overweight. This is the part the docs will never tell you. I miss her all the time & been close to 10 years she has been gone. This info seems logical & common sense to me ❤. Thank you for sharing ❤. RIP Mawmaw ❤
I was 385 lbs in April of 2023. In January 2024 I cut out all sugar and wheat. No exercise. Only ate salad and eggs. Fasted for 11 days in April, then started intermittent fasting to this very day. Now I’m 300 lbs, still dropping weight slowly. Feeling great! So I have lost 85 lbs on a keto diet, and more importantly I am permanently eating differently for life! It’s a lifestyle or habit. Good luck everyone!
It’s actually pretty easy, as long as you have a ruthless commitment. Be brutally ruthless with yourself. You can’t be double-minded, thinking diet is only temporary. If you want to change, you have to change, plain & simple.
You need to get proper nutrition and those eggs are ok but expensive and that salad is like eating foam rubber.Hunger is the main reason for failure for the majority of people on all those diets that were touted over the years. Proper Human Diet is fatty meat. Grass fed is nice but the grain finished will work if that is what you can afford. Dr. Ken D.Berry MD has lots of postings here on YT.Watch the early ones when he was keto and now he and his wife are now carnivore.
I have been involved with Vinnie’s Facebook group for over 10 years. It has been simply amazing seeing all the health changes made. Vinnie came along at the exact right time for me. Was once again gaining weight rapidly after yet another diet program. Thanks for having Vinnie on your show Mike and Chuck
Mike, you need to do a podcast about the history of Kellogg's and their relationship with Seventh Day Adventist's. If you like "rabbit holes", you'll love this....
Yep, show the corruption of how this woke left group of militant 7th day Adventists started the “meat bad” agenda and trying to start their depopulation agenda by telling people to barely eat meat as it encourages procreation! Terrible! Look up Ellen G White! Her group designed the food pyramid, as well as “health” guidelines, are involved in “health” organizations, and even wrote the curriculum for doctors on “nutrition” which is very small, but all biased toward their agenda of “meat is bad” as it encourages healthy procreation. They even designed the vegan/ vegetarian scam diets too! God encourages families to have children and meat keeps the human body healthy- and humans should only consume small to zero amount of plant based foods!
I’m now a Rowbie! Thanks Vinnie! I’ve watched all your docs, my husband and I are now following you on podcasts and TH-cam, Rumble. Thanks Mike for introducing Vinnie to us!
I am one of those people who has been transformed from the ketogenic diet, intermittent fasting, and whole, organic food consumption. Lost 65 pounds and counting. No more high blood pressure. I am 61 and have changed my life and health in 8 months. Went cold turkey off sugar, carbs, and processed foods.
I started carnivore 6 weeks ago. I'm down 42 pounds already. What's more surprising than that, is how much more energy & mental clarity I have. Already seeing improvements in some of my chronic health problems too. Cutting out sugar & processed foods was brutal, I won't lie. The first 2 weeks was hell. But man... I'm kicking myself that I didn't try this a decade ago.
5.5 Years Keto, maintaining healthy weight on a mostly animal based diet and feeling younger every year! Love the work Vinnie (and others) is doing to expose the lies by big food, big pharma and big government!
Key: Keto/Carnivore,good sleep, lift weights, Diet: no sugar, no flour, no processed foods, no seed oils, protein, saturated fat, very low carbs. And walk after 2-meals per day… I-Fasting will help.😊
Mike, I love that you work with Dave Ramsey, too. He is working in another area in life where, along with you and Vinnie, is doing the right thing in working hard to correct a system but not seeming to make a dent overall. The "right thing" in any part of life is never going to be adopted by the masses (who would prefer big government help them instead of helping themselves). But I'm an optimist and believe your and Vinnie's, and Dave's message is making it through to the people who need it.
I've been eating a ketogenic and Carnivore way of eating. I've lost over 170lbs and restored my health. Reversed my type 2 diabetes, reversed my high blood pressure, and more.
When someone tells me grains are bad I feel the same way as when I was told eggs, butter, and milk were bad. Something's off-kilter. The one time I naturally lost weight and kept it off I was eating a heap of rice each day (I was in the Philippines). I am convinced that the reason both low-carbohydrate and low-fat diets work is that, whichever one you go on, the first thing you do is stop eating desert (cookies, cup-cakes, candy bars) every day and fast food every other day. Drill down further (on either diet) and you start eliminating the highly processed foods. There is oil and sugar in just about everything they shovel at us.
Yep, both work in the short term. Either you starve yourself to your target (burn more than you intake of carbs), or you eat like we have for thousands and thousands of years (you know, before as a people we had cancer, auto immune diseases, type 2 diabetes, parkinsons, alzheimers and all these other chronic diseases) high amounts of whole foods rich in proteins and saturated fat. It really comes down to whatever you can find yourself sticking with.
You don't need carbs, ever. Rice? Never. Bread, never. Vegetables? Never. Fruits? Never. Sugar? Two teaspoons a day, max. Primarily Animal proteins and animal fats. No soy. No almond milk. No fruit drinks. Nothing but whole milk or coconut milk, or water. One cup of black coffee is probably ok. Any of the seed oils, NEVER. Seafoods, wild caught only. Beef, grass fed, pasture raised, no hormone's, no antibiotics. If you have a source for raw, unpasteurized, milk, drink that, it is far better than processed milk. The only reason milk is pasteurized is to increase shelf life, but it removes all the probiotics in raw milk that aid in digestion. Eggs are also a good source of protein. Cheese is good but be selective as there are many processed and and ultra processed cheese's out there that are no good for you. Butter? Absolutely, a half to a full stick a day is great. Black coffee to bitter for you're taste? Whole milk or half n half are fine and will take the bitter edge off you're coffee.
You’re correct, there is a video dive a guy did about Europe bread and US bread. Our grains are tampered with along with the breads full of preservatives. Not good for you nor meant for sustained consumption, it’s not WW2 anymore. Europe it’s fresh breads and pasta with simple ingredients. Grains give your brain essential nutrients, I believe it’s an omega specifically. I forgot the details on it.
High fat carnivore. Lost over half my body weight from 345 to 176. Cleared up tons of health issues from major to minor. Feel 20 years younger. Food pyramid not just wrong, it's the inverse of right.
A couple years ago I went on the all meat diet and went from 4 to 5 rx a day to zero scrips six months in from starting. I am lucky enough to be the fifth generation of the family beef business that my forefathers started in 1918. There’s been so many generations that the amount of land had been diluted to the point that only one of my siblings is able to make a living off of it but I still kept a few of my cows for sentimental reasons and still butcher my own beef. My buddy has a small feeding operation that takes cattle from the yearling age to slaughter weight by feeding expired produce from the regions big grocery stores. This is an amazing way to findish cattle. Most all the produce still looks as fresh as what many grocery stores have on the shelves but once it reaches it date it goes in the dump. When the produce arrives to the feedlot its dried and ran through the grinder then mixed with fresh ground hay and grass then put in the bunk for the cattle to eat free choice. There’s never been a happier pen full of cattle. They get everything that the fresh produce isle has and grow extremely well. We have a local packing plant that processes one calf at a time and doesn’t mix two beef together which is nice because our calves don’t have any antibiotics or growth hormones in them. We know that plastics are becoming a problem in humans bodies so our packing plant has gone back to using bees wax paper to wrap the meat in. The paper wrapped meat lasts longer in the freezer too. There’s on average 40-50 steers in the fat pen for sale for slaughter each month so if anyone is within 50 miles of OKC and wants a top notch fed calf ready for slaughter let us know. We are not officially in the butchered and packed meat business but if anyone wants fresh beef like this shipped to them call the slaughter plant in Shamrock TX and they might be able to hook you up with the best of the best. Not nearly as expensive as what the internet beef brands are either.
Some people including individuals in health care ,talk as though Keto is a fad diet not a lifestyle change. Following a SAD certainly didn't make my body happy or healthy. Look at who funds the food pyramid. A year ago I was a size 20 down now down to a size 14 and holding. God bless the people like this man who continue to put this information out and keep pushing rocks up the hill.
Really enjoyed this interview. Mike Rowe’s voice!!!! Wow! I’ve been on NSNG since 2016 (heard about Vinnie on Adam Carolla back in the day). Vinnie CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER! I’m so glad he does the work he does. He’s saving lives!
My father was the first traveling Phys Ed teach K-5 in the early 70's. He traveled to four different elementary schools in Pa. and promoted the physical fitness program. Very proud of him and kids remember him to this day, he had a colorful life! God bless him !
I love this podcast!! I have been preaching this same message for over 20 years. You are correct in saying that only a few will listen. It takes sometime for those who do listen to take action. There was one that said she will never read food labels.. However she has now and was able to get off all her meds and reverse her type two diabetes.. what is very discouraging as well is that some people I talk to are skinny and they think that they don’t have anything to worry about. I am a 73 year old energetic, constantly moving female. I was diagnosed with type one diabetes at the age of 58. I considered a blessing and a curse. Mainly because I don’t know if I would have ever read food labels or realize how our food system is. Since being on Anselin, I have gained quite a bit of weight, and I have not been able to get any help from anyone because of being type one.. however over the past year, I have realized that the medical sector has it all backwards. They tell you to take the amount of insulin according to the amount of carbs you’re eating. That is not the case. You need to eat the amount of carbs of the insulin you’re taking. For instance, I allow myself seven units of insulin per meal. Therefore, I make sure that my carbs do not exceed that. I do not take insulin for breakfast because I don’t eat any carbs and I also able to keep my blood sugar low up until lunch with the activities that I’m involved in. So far, I’m only taking insulin for two meals. I don’t eat between meals unless my sugar is very low, but I do not take any insulin between meals. I have cut out most grains. It is a process for sure. I do not eat any processed foods. Any Goodies I eat I bake. For example I eat a quarter of a pumpkin muffin. According to this podcast I still have some bad habits but I think they are small in comparison to what it was. I have been able to lose 15 pounds over the past several months because of the method I’m using. I’m not sure if any of this is relevant, but I appreciate you very much and allow me to make these comments. I would love to be a part of your group of getting more of the word out, but I have very little social intervention, so I’m not sure how much I can do other than just speak to the people that I come in contact with.. Thank you, Mike for all your podcasts. They are very informative, but this tops them all.
I grew up in that era when no one was fat except me and now in my mid 50's I am finally truly free and still hopeful that I will get some small measure of life. BBB&E for life, because it saved my life.
Went carnivore 5 months ago. Lost 30 lbs and am down 2 pant sizes. I have more energy, mental clarity, depression gone and libido is through the roof. Got off my depression and blood pressure medication. I have never felt better in my life as an adult.
I started flowing Vinnie the first time i heard him on Mike Rowe's podcast. Im back in the same shape i was in when i was 20. Thats with out working out. I have better gut health than I did as well.
My Great Grandfather lived to be 99 yrs old, and he ate pretty much nothing but eggs and bacon for breakfast, and steak for dinner, followed by a tall glass of whiskey and a cigar on the porch..
I’m 77 when we were kids we had very little sugar, dessert was a rarity, very little pasta, but potatoes. Always fruit and a big salad with our meals. We did eat bread and oatmeal. We were all thin till the 90s after we ate by the pyramid. Now I’m eating meat and veggies and plain yogurt and coffee. I’ve been able to lose weight slowly but I feel better about my health.
I've worked out and exercised all my life. I've tried to do everything I could to live a long and healthy life. 6'2" and at one time I got up to 232lbs mainly due to crappy eating habits. I was reading all I could about diets along the way and it wasn't helping with the gradual rise in my weight. Finally, some doctors started coming clean and risking their licenses being taken away and teaching us what it really going on. After following their advice, I dropped down to 195lbs 4 years ago and I haven't gained anything back. We all know our government and its agencies are bought and paid for, so we really have to dig deep to find the truthful answers. Thanks to Mike, Vinnie, Dr Berg and Dr Berry there is plenty of good info out there to get you on your way. No excuses anymore.
Do the carnivore diet to break the carbohydrate and sugar addiction. Then, after about 1-3 years of pure carnivore, you can start to add single foods (broccoli or cabbage, etc) back in to your diet to see which ones do not cause problems. The carnivore diet is the diet to break addiction to the sugars because it is so satiating. As your local butcher (yes Safeway has butchers) to give you a 70/30 ground beef... tastes just like steak... then, eat that with sugarless bacon and eggs and plenty of salt. Also, until your body acclimates to the new diet, take electrolytes and whatever you do, triple the amount of water you were drinking. I drink between 90 to 150 ounces of water a day. You'll lose weight, you'll stop snoring, you'll eventually cure your type 2 diabetes, you'll cure your IBS, you'll cure your Crohn's disease, you'll cure your hypertension and you'll cure the vast majority of your autoimmune diseases. Do it.
Keep fighting the good fight. I just recently started my journey to try to cut out processed foods and carbs and grains. I have listened to several podcasts recently. Between Joe Rogan, PBD, and many others. So many guests have been preaching the same thing. At first I was skeptical. After a few podcasts with different guests, I started to really think about what I was hearing. We, as a country, need to wake up and see the corporate influence in every single aspect of our lives. Now, off to find your 2 documentaries. I’m gonna show them to my family. Everybody needs to know.
Carnivore has healed so much for me! I started off carnivore in hopes to reverse my fibrocystic breast masses that have built up over 6 years eating half a dry skinless chicken breast piece a day with half cup of broccoli and little bit of wheat noodles. We are told don’t eat very much meat- so the world is almost vegan just about. I would eat red canbbage too- cooked it and ate cabbage about 3 times a week. That was about it. So I was mainly chicken, broccoli, and little wheat noodles. So from age 40-46 I started getting all that “aging” health issue mess- and the fibrocystic breast “disease” started and kept building up! When I hit age 46 I was done with it! The fibrocystic masses were getting me scares- and I started getting huge painful breast cysts too! One was around 2” long and 1” wide! Docs would say, “we don’t know what causes fibrocystic breasts disease” and “fibrocystic breasts is now normal because everyone is getting it” and “fibrocystic breast could turn into cancer” and “there is nothing you can do for fibrocystic breasts” and “diet doesn’t cause fibrocystic breasts!” I was gaining weight too and by summer of 2022 I hit perimenopause at age 46 and got every symptom you could think of. My joints were hurting too, no sleep at night, dizzy at times, it was ridiculous! I know it had to be diet! Little did I know that all the other health issues I had all my life, in addition to this mess listed above, was all due to diet! I went searching online and found the truth of my fibrocystic problem! Found out cruciferous veggies (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, and asparagus) are all cruciferous veggies that block natural iodine absorption found in foods! And if you become depleted in iodine it messes up your thyroid which controls all- even hormones! And all organs need iodine including breasts! They swell if you are deficient! And I read these cruciferous veggies can cause cancer due to lack of iodine in body since they block absorption! Bingo! We are all being told to eat cruciferous veggies, that they can prevent cancer, and to eat lots of it including broccoli!! But in fact they are causing cancer and I truly feel it is causing all the fibrocystic breast cases that have been escalating lately that we are seeing! When I post about this and ladies write back saying they too had fibrocystic breasts, I ask, “do you eat cruciferous veggies, especially broccoli” and they all have said, “YES!” I did more research and found carnivore! I Jumped right in! In 6-8 weeks I lost 45 pounds! My perimenopause reversed! In fact don’t even get PMS symptoms and my cycle is perfectly paced! And so much more reversed that I started writing it down! And yes, my fibrocystic breast masses shrank! I share my progress because I want people to see how carnivore can heal so much and most of these things are commonly healed for many, not just me! I want to help and this is how I do- by sharing. No I am not paid to do this, I just want to help people see and be aware of what carnivore can do! I do update this list as I have been on carnivore (more lion diet version) for 2 years now. I feel this has helped so many decide if they should try carnivore. I always say go watch Dr. Baker, Dr. Chaffee, and Dr. Berry- my three most favorite doctors. They are truly amazing! I call them my carnivore doctors! ☺️ * No more perimenopause- completely reversed! *Period cycles all timed perfect with 4 week intervals.And no PMS symptoms, but only the actual menstrual cycle itself! *No more night sweats *No more waking every 2 hours at night! *It used to take me 20 minutes or longer to fall asleep at night when I would first go to bed at night- before carnivore. Now it takes like a minute or less. Haven’t noticed since I am out fast! *No more life long eczema *No more cold hands (may have been Reynold’s disease, never diagnosed.) *No more cold body temp in general! Used to feel like a reptile - only warm in texas sun. (may have been Raynaud’s disease, never diagnosed.) *No more IBS symptoms (gas, bloating, stomach pain, constipation, diarrhea) *No more feeling low energy by 12pm and zombie by 4pm *No more purple looking hands in winter (may have been Raynaud’s disease, never diagnosed.) *No more brain fog *No more arthritis that I felt in hands, knees, and hips- or elbows *used to have sore hips when sleeping on my side. No more! *Lost 45+ pounds from former baby weight and peri menopause weight. *Always had 20/20 vision with slight stigmatism- but in March doctor said my stigmatism is reversing! *Don’t sunburn as easily anymore and tan well. *Wrinkles around eyes seem to be much less. I am 47 and look like I am in early 30’s. *Gums look super healthy. Dentist seems irritated as my teeth are not dirty when cleaning every six months. Think they know they won’t make money off me. *No more sore chest from monthly periods- no swelling feeling of fullness or discomfort that prevented me from sleeping on my stomach. Now I sleep every night on my stomach! *Fibrocystic Breast issues reversing! Almost all gone after 6 years of buildup! *no cravings unless they are for meat *no more angina symptoms before a period- which started about 3 years ago. *No more feeling weak like almost passing out and dizzy around ovulation and periods when walking around. * no more fingers swelling- that started a few years ago- rings kept being tight- is pattern I noticed. One ring I had resized larger and it’s super loose now. Will have to resize smaller. *feel stronger- now lifting barbells not just hands weights. Dr. Baker said since I am 46, and 5’7” at 122lbs- need more resistance training to add more muscle weight. . So bought a 47lb barbell off Amazon and have 90 extra pounds added to it. Will continue to progress with that. *Before carnivore- i had started growing grey hairs in one of my eyebrows, few hairs at a time, but no grey in my blonde hair yet - but assumed it was coming. Now on carnivore I have had no new grey hairs growing in eye brows and still no grey hair in my natural blonde hair. And in the sun it gets super light highlights. * no more body odor! * I used to get a little anxiety with large crowds- like if attending special events- but since on carnivore I don’t get it that much. *I was a bit OCD before carnivore, but so much more relaxed so barely like that. * I was a relaxed person before, but somehow am even more relaxed and never stress about things. *Since I was a young child my sense of smell has been terrible. But not even a month in on carnivore my sense of smell has gone crazy! I smell things even far away! Amazing! *no more allergies! I was allergic to cedar and oak pollens- and mold- but since carnivore I am no longer reacting to those outdoor pollens which is amazing! * I have had no more issues from ear wax build up. Had it twice after having kids and docs would say it was a hormonal problem. Carnivore cured that too! *Veins in my arms look healthier. They were almost invisible before. *Legs no longer hurt on longer road trips or plane rides! *I used to get a popping sounds in my right shoulder when lifting weights. Was probably a pulled ligament. That is now gone! *I have been lactose intolerant since I was a kid, and I feel my nails are a bit stronger than before. They do break if I catch them on things but I feel they are getting stronger on carnivore. *My teeth look more white on carnivore. *My blood pressure has improved on carnivore. 6 years before carnivore up to starting carnivore my blood pressure was increasing. Now on carnivore it is back to normal like when I was younger. Last reading it was 100/75 which is awesome! *i used to get eye twitches in my eye lids, but that is gone. * at times when trying to fall asleep I would close my eyes and at times felt dizzy like falling feeling or spinning. But haven’t has that since I have been on carnivore for 12 months. *the skin on the heals of my feet are no longer cracked and dry! *little leak from sneezing or coughing that ladies get from estrogen dominance is gone on carnivore! Hormones balanced so no more estrogen dominance! *The top inner corner of both my larger toes have felt a little numb for years. Never had it diagnosed. But being 1 year on carnivore I no longer feel that numbness! My nerves have healed in that spot on both toes! Crazy! *My slightly receding gums behind my center bottom front teeth have rebuilt so gums all over are super healthy! I have flossed daily for years, but gums look even healthier! *my skin on my face isn’t as oily as it used to be. *My hair used to be super oily if not washed daily, but carnivore has regulated my hair so I can now go days without having to wash it- doesn’t get oily after one day like before! (Newest update added!) Want to mention if you start to get any allergy symptoms further into carnivore you may have histamine intolerance. Happened to me if I ate smoked meats daily for months straight. Went back to baking my meats and all the symptoms went away! Look into histamine intolerance when starting carnivore to make sure you know symptoms and not to eat smoked aged meats daily like I did if you get symptoms. Eat smoked meats less often. I do go outside daily for at least an hour a day during week and several hours on weekends if possible! I try to stay on consistent sleeping schedule of 6-8 hours of sleep and sleep like a bear!☺️ So there you go! ☺️ I hope this helps people on their journey to fins out what works for them! Carnivore is working for everyone that tries. Go watch Dr. Baker, Dr. Chaffee, and Dr. Berry! And go visit Kerry’s channel at Homesteadhow! We love him too! ☺️
Thank you for sharing! I read all of that! I have a question... Is carnivore simply eating only meats? Or do you include other animal products such as milk and butter?
215 to 176 so far in 3 mts. Just questioned a lady at a luncheon why she was eating steak out of Tupperware. Took her clues and voila. I'm sure I could refine details but I'm near the point of worrying that I might not be able to stop losing. :)
As a career carpenter now retired, I’m on board with trade schools and in my 60’s got on KETO and got faster on my bicycle than ever before. I love your show!
Why have I never heard of Vinnie? I've been carnivore/keto over 2 years, and I lost more than half my weight. Thanks for the interview, Mike. I'll go watch his videos. Also, don't drink! Or only on occasion please. It's so bad for you.
Not. Sodium sugar corn sugar preservertives. 90 percent of the problem is people sitting around not doing anything. Over 50 percent of women are fat now their kids are fat too. 30 years ago you didn't have much TV and no video games.
It's too bad people didn't check out the ingredients in the new vaccine. Or the meaning of EUA (emergency use authorization) and what that means. It means they didn't need to follow the same rules for 'good manufacturing practices' those rules no longer applied.
I look for anything that say Bioengineered ingredients and stay far away from it. Eat real food. Mexico just stopped buying corn from the US bc bioengineered corn.
Divine intervention, so true. I prayed for years with help to lose weight, but did nothing about (diet change, portion control, etc). Just over a month ago, I woke up in the middle of the week, work from home, homeschool 3 kids, and I started an elimination diet. I've lost 35lbs in 5wks. It's possible, you just have to want it enough!
Been eating like this for 7yrs! My 37 yr old son started a few months ago, finally. He admitted to me a few days ago that he's getting checked for cancer this week. He's making his own bone broth and fasting. Every generation is getting sicker at a younger age.... I'm scared to death right now, but know he's on the right track and there's hope.....
Going to add to these comments since they're following in my wheelhouse. Been meat-heavy keto since mid-late 2022, carnivore since late last year, and strict carnivore since March. I didn't do it for weight loss and I've got a skinny build to begin with, but it's been the best thing I've ever done. Mental clarity is crazy, sharper now than I was a teenager (31 now), with much more conviction than ever. Vinnie's right, only YOU have the ability to help yourself, and once you find this way of eating, there are many adversaries saying it's bad for you, but you have to educate yourself as well as ask questions and play devil's advocate. Whenever someone says you're doing something wrong, look at them and their state of health, and ask if you would sincerely take their advice against what you know now
My son is 45 and follows a keto diet. Couple of years ago he was so sick, couldn't digest anything and I was finally able to drag him to a doctor. At six feet, he weighed in at 122 lbs. They checked everything and couldn't find anything wrong. He decided to go full on keto and GAINED weight (which we wanted) and is so much healthier. Doctor also put him on an SSRI to help with severe anxiety and he's actually doing great. I think he weighs about 145 now and is building muscle. Keto really makes a difference. And our doctor approves of keto.
Awesome podcast i need this. Went from 411 to 231 5 years ago by starving and exercising out of my mind for 12 months. Now back to 364 and fell miserable. I need a sustainable way
Also don’t forget to give President Reagan credit for youth physical fitness. He had a program too and you could earn a presidential jacket and arm patch. It was cool, I earned one in junior high!
I totally agree with Vinnie and how sad it is about big business tainting our nutrition. Thank for speaking truth when mainstream want to boost $$$ for themselves. Sickening indeed and need to grow our own food and supporting local businesses like our butchers.
Dropped 115 lbs in 9 months reversed heart, disease, metabolic syndrome, and serious arthritis In 2019. Put on 20+ lbs of muscle since. No processed food allowed.
Tristan Hood here, and 10 years ago I started a journey of tracking what I was eating and it changed my life. I had just gotten news from the doctor that I would need to be on blood pressure medication for the rest of my life. A friend suggested tracking and Whole 30. I started with tracking, found that I was drinking 7 cups of coffee full of sugar and creamer every day. I cut that in half and lost 10 pounds after a week. After just 6 months, I had lost 55 pounds, was no longer putting sugar or creamer in my coffee, and I had been on the whole 30 as a new lifestyle. After 33 years of regular migraines, I no longer had headaches. Since then, no weight gain, and I ran my first marathon in 2023. Sugar overload is killing us. Dropping added sugar from my diet has been a life changer.
Example #2 I go to see my Cardiologist ( I weigh 118 pds with HBP) from the Dr. To all the staff are at least 30 to 40 pds overweight. They have all lost their credibility with me! He told me to go home and start meditating, I said ok, as long as you and everyone in this office go’s on Keto.
I just recently started a keto diet, can't quite afford carnivore. For some reason I've always had a belly that sticks out from the rest of my body. I'm not extremely overweight or anything. Within a week of starting my diet, my stomach flattened out to a more normal shape and the only thing I can think of is all the inflammation from a high carb, high processed food diet finally went away.
Great show. Been doing the E2M (Eager 2 Motivate) program for the past 2 years and it's been fantastic. Keeping weight off, eating real food, great exercise program, and I'm feeling great. Keep up the great work, Mike!!
I eat animal base and I don't exorcize. My weight stays the same in spite of having a desk job. I do work in my yard on the weekends or go camping and hiking. So I get movement, but nothing like what people do who work out at the gym.
Mike, I would love to talk sometime about how I worked hard early in HS, so I would have one class my junior and senior years, so I could work full time. I was a welder. Growing up, that what I did into my 20's. Started to hate it because back in the early 90's, it didn't pay squat. So, after losing everything and eating out of garbage cans, I moved here to NE, got a job with the gov in IT. Went to college at night. Took 6 years to get my BS in IT management. Took 6 months off and went back to get my MAM. Here I am 11 years after that graduation, still in IT and wished I would have stayed in the trades back then and had someone tell me that there were a half dozen opportunities that I walked away from because I thought I would make more. What a sad thing. At least I met my wife and can die happy with her lol. Thank you for all you do.
My hubs got an engineering degree back in the 1970s but was always wanting to learn new stuff so he would train at a friend's welding shop on weekends and got certified. After that, when he was designing plants and needed pipe fitters, he just filled in and saved the companies money because he was on salary as their chief chemical engineer. Strange guy. Used to like to make his own clothes, his mom was a dressmaker. Made our daughter's prom dress. Also likes to draw and create comics. 72 years old, never stops learning new stuff. Next to him, I feel like an old fuddy duddy.
Had severe RA for many years. Went carnivore for 45 days and it completely changed my life. It isn't easy in the beginning. Get past the first few days and you'll be fine.
Mike. Since April of this year I have gone from 254lbs to 197 lbs. NSNG works. Big food hates me!! I eat meat, fat and almost no veggies. My son was 170 lbs now he's 125 lbs. We did it together!
Been on carnivore for 4 months. I only eat meat and meat products. Took my body two months to learnt to use ketones for energy. Lost 25 pounds without trying. Never felt better.
Do you mean 2 weeks? Because it's usually 1-2 weeks... And yeah, been on it for 7 weeks now and the effortless gain loss is awesome, not having back and knee pain, not having bain fog is great.
Even where I'm from, I remember as a child being extremely active in school - climbing ropes, doing peg boards, pushups, pullups, jumping rope, running around the grounds on a track OUTSIDE, hell they even had an 'olympics' every year with a bunch of track and field events. It was a blast and I remember all the energy, good vibes, and enthusiasm for life that came with it.
TMI. I laughed so hard at the toilet paper discussion. I have never thought of folding again. One of my kids biology teachers said there should be nothing to wipe if you eat healthy. I agree.
I am at the beginning of changing my way of eating. It’s difficult because of tiredness and convenience but I keep moving forward. My aim is not particularly weight loss but overall health. Also, I stopped supporting and viewing Wikipedia a couple years ago. They’re not a vehicle of truth but for an agenda. Sad.
Great podcast. Powerful! We are not a society that's deliberately lazy, fat, sad, anxious, suicidal, and out to hurt/kill each other on purpose. We are a society that has been undermined by big food and pharma. Ultra-processed foods and beverages are undermining our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health! Ultra-processed foods and beverages should not be consumed regularly. The longing to experience something more is inherent in humans. Unless we bring forth a holistic approach, drugs will be ubiquitous: -Drink more water. -Eat mostly whole foods. -Increase your physical activity level. -Manage your weight. -Connect and join groups of people aspiring to live a healthy lifestyle. -Make change that lasts.
I’m so excited to be on the side of helping people start being healthy especially low income people. I’m a nutritional therapy practitioner and just starting my practice. I hope to get some laws changed around WIC and SNAP in the future so low income people can have better access to healthy foods
I am totally disgusted with the government and subsequent marketing lies to inundate my husband and I with processed terrible fake foods night and day.
I’ve been carnivore for 18 months. I was keto for a couple of years before that. At my heaviest I was 540 lbs, now 306 lbs and still losing. I was bed ridden 10 years with multiple autoimmune diseases. Carnivore put 7 autoimmune diseases into remission, healed 3 discs in my lower back, reversed bipolar disorder, reversed high blood pressure, and much more. Carnivore saved my life.
Exactly. I was put on prednisone for 7 years. You'll eat wallpaper paste and like it. I gained a lot of weight. Working to getting it off now on keto. 12 lbs in 8 months. Slow and steady.
This former QVC Host wishes you were still around when I got there. You're the BEST Mike. My husband and I have been Carnivore for almost 500 days! I'll never go back to eating crappy carbs and frankenfoods. When selling exercise equipment on the Q, I was trying to give people something they could relate to, but saying they're carrying around a bowling ball for every 10 lbs they are overweight...no WONDER they're tired and life is tough.
@kcluvznf Thx for remembering! I can't believe how long it's been since then! I ate so poorly when on air... lots of Boost, Ensure, and cereal....uggghhh. Those overnights were killers! Many didn't know that I was the second oldest woman to Kathy Levine. I'm SO GLAD I found Carnivore, and I'll NEVER go back. My body took to 🥩🧈🥓🥚🥚s sooo easily, and now I feel sooo good. There's no choosing any other way.
Dr. Casey Means and Calley Means, book “Good Energy”. Also works with RFK Jr. Also watch Tucker Carlson long interview with these two. Very real and very well understood podcast for those who are curious. 1 can be heard, but when there are many voices things can happen. Mike Rowe get everybody together. We are a sick dying nation. There is also research that all this bad food is messing with hormones. All the people above are having the conversation on lots of podcast. Casey has a way with words that are not insulting.

I’m 6’2” I weighed 291 in April earlier this year 2024. After many years of struggling with weight I finally was able to get Semaglutide for it. Here I am 30 lbs lighter and 4 months later. No exercise, and I eat until I feel full. Sometimes it’s normal amounts and sometimes it’s less than my usual normal. I understand that I will have to eventually find a way to find homeostasis without this medication. However, this medication has been a miracle for me.

I am the person they mention later in the show. Scott King. This way of eating has literally saved my life. I had assume I was going to die and nearly gave up. This was a last ditch resort for me and was in complete shock it worked. I am off all meds and healthier than ever. Even had a full blood panel this past week for a physical and labs are perfect. I couldn't even stand for more than 10 mins before. Every aspect of my life is better and healthier. 310lbs down and not going to stop. I hope this encourages other. I was hopeless and helpless and this works.
❤
That’s awesome!
You are great!
I celebrate your success! How ironic that you had to at your heaviest know that the only place you could get weighed, was a grain scale. When grain and sugar was what led you to being over 600 pounds. Keep up the great work in continuing to staying healthy and fit.
So proud of you Scott
45 years of following the pyramid and I had increasing health issues. Went plant based, 'cos it's healthier, right? Health got worse. Teeth issues lead me to Western A Price and a low carb diet, and my health improved. Low carb eventually became high fat carnivore and ALL my health issues, IBS, gum and periodontal disease, hair loss, arthritis, acne, brain fog, and more went away. I also had unexpected benefits, not needing deodorant, not burning in the sun, my eye sight improved and finding it easy to drop fat and gain muscle, without trying! I'm now post menopausal, 5 years mostly carnivore, and the only person I know of my age who's slim and on not meds.
You went plant based and your health got worse? I’m sorry, I do not believe you.
🤪
This entire planet is a lie.😮
Carnivore is useful for you because it rids parasites.
I am here with you with the deodorant. I also use home made soap (which is same price or cheaper the in store) without any added glycerin and use colloidal silver if needed. Even thou i still sweat like a pig i rarely stink as i execrate so much salt i inhibit all bacterial growth. Using home made soap my skin have no oils for the bacteria to eat (including glycerin). Since i am so salty i attract moisture and my skin is super moist and smooth.
I have been inching towards carnivore over 10 years and the biggest changes on keto/carnivore are velvety skin (even thou it was fine before), reduce to no joint pain and improve sleeping and needing less.
Keto took me from 255# to 190#, off all the meds, and my family doctor gave me a standing ovation after seeing my blood work. I am 73 and feel better than I have in 30 years.
Ken Berry, MD on TH-cam with the Proper Human Diet.
And by the way, I am never hungry on Keto.
This guy is spot on!
congrats on going from 215% of my weight to only 140% of my weight.
that's both sarcastic, and approving, by the way. which way you take it determines how thick of a skin you have.
Started my Keto journey a week ago.
@@mattacosta6475 You will do great by staying with the plan,
All the meat you want to eat,
Beef, pork, chicken or seafood and eggs, butter, cheese.
Avoid seed oils, carbs (sugars) & ultra processed foods.
Starchy root vegetables, no good!
You will be amazed at how addictive sugar is. You will go through withdrawal. But by making the right choices, you will be able to handle this!
Keto is for majority of people, TERRIBLE. Eat in a calorie deficit and achieve the same results, with better vitals and healthier. Really not that hard. Track macros, move more. 4 words that'll save a bunch of these fad diet dumb crap.
Congrats to you! The joke is, Tou have a pretty crappy memory! 🎉
Beef, bacon, butter and eggs!!
Beef, bacon, butter, eggs, and beer.

@@adelarsen9776 Dr Berry fans in here!
After I watched the first eight minutes of this video I went in search of Vinnie's documentaries. I found and watched both, then went down the YT rabbit hole of videos on "big food". I'm back to finish this video. I agree with Mike, "it feels like I can't eat anything!"
Beef is what's for dinner. Don't by the lean stuff but you can if for every # of lean you eat 12 oz of fat. Be it tallow,suet or lard it's all good for humans.
@daveb go down the Carnivore Way of Eating on your next rabbit hole dive.

I donate to Wikipedia every year. I just got their email last week and I told them I wouldn't be able to donate until they reinstate Vinnie's page.
oh honey. PLEASE DO NOT donate to them. If you knew how incorrect they were, and how many outright LIES they post, you would be appalled (and not even just to add Vinnie's page back). Please research!
Talking about Devine Intervention…. In my early 20’s I had a serious problem with alcohol. I had learned to like the taste of beer at a very young age and had been kept in check by my parents until I moved out of their house. On my own I was free to do as I pleased and to make a long story short I produced, or probably digressed to the point of drinking Bacardi 151 straight from the bottle and it was the last thing I wanted at night and the first thing I wanted in the morning. I came in late one evening four sheets in the wind and sat down on the couch. The next thing I knew I was sober as a judge and I heard a voice that sounded like thunder. It said, you can keep going they way you are if you want to, but if you do you’re going to be dead. I said, if you help me I will quit. It was all taken away and I never wanted another drop. Thanks be to God he intervened.
That's quite amazing! Wow!
There's a guy on TH-cam that goes by justadude. He needs to hear this.
This is amazing. PRAISE GOD PRAISE GOD!!!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻. God is good

I would avoid potatoes (starchy vegs). but great news on your progress!
Eat else did you do? Keto? Exercise? Meditation?.....
POTATOES??????
Why the potato poison?
❤ Amen ❤
My wife and I have been carnivore since January of 22. We've never been healthier. Didn't even realize how much inflammation and swelling was there. Dropped to my intended weight and ill never go back. People who are scared of giving up sweets and bread, do it! The further you get away from it, you won't want it anymore! You won't miss it because it's so not worth everything that comes with it!! Please do it! Get healthy and stop being a government and pharma statistic!! Live a great life feeling wonderful!!
Just keep an eye on your cholesterol, especially after the weight loss plateaus.
Amen. Same here. CarnKeto. And Kimchi/sauerkraut for probiotics.
@@limitisillusion7Why? Have you seen any legitimate study that shows the risk of having a high cholesterol is CHF? Not an association. Or is it because of a statin deficiency?
@@stanrobertson There is no way to prove causality. We can only identify associations and make logical inferences. When you find an association and run out of hoops to jump through while trying to disprove causality, that's when you take the hint and declare causality. The hoops available between the association of high LDL and CVD have been thoroughly exhausted. You can only snap yourself with a rubber band so many times before you realize that stretching it too much is the cause of your pain.
@@limitisillusion7 You are right about the difficulty proving causality when it comes to nutrition. What we need to be cautious of is thinking something must be true if it is repeated enough times.
I love Mike Rowe so much. He’s just so fantastic. Smart. Attractive (and not in a “I want to steal you from your wife” kind of way. He’s just an attractive human. Inside and out.
Yes! I feel the same way about Mike Rowe! He's always impressed me as a stellar human being, ever since I started watching "Dirty Jobs" way back in the day. He's just a great guy!
Excellent interview!!! Carnivore over 5 yrs and a RN who teaches my patients real nutrition and the proper human diet!!
I am 62 and last November I started carnivore. I had been exercising but could not lose fat. Fat is gone, joint pain gone, no desire to consume sugary foods, BP down and I have not been sick.
I almost cant believe how good this podcast was...bravo. The only person that can save you from yourself is you (and Jesus). Stop eating sugar, seed oils, processed foods... shop the outside aisles of the grocery store. Go for walks, make time to take care of yourself, love youself, pray 🙏🏼
Been Carnivore for 2.5 years and have gone from 33o lbs to 190 lbs. No exercise, however I am starting to exercise now just to feel more energy. Love all the benefits I have gotten. Started due to fear that I would not be able to save myself or others when I was 330. Being 6'3" I want to get to 180. Figure to stay this lifestyle forever. I would encourage everyone to give it a shot for 6 months.. Easiest eating style ever. Great episode Mike! Love Vinnie and his honesty.
180!?!?! I'm 6'4" and if I get down to 210 I'm at ~12% body fat. I would not consider myself (not would most others) hypermuscular in any way. Certainly hand never done steroids or even sick to much of a weight training plan for any long term amount of time. I would suggest you add some moderate weight training to preserve muscle mass as you age. You're certainly getting the protein you need on your diet. I think you would be happier at least a lean 200 lbs....
That's a great! What about cholesterol tho? What do you eat?
@@mariag2454 Total Chol 167 Trig 77 HDL 48... which according to the lab is good. LDL is 104 and VLDL is 15....Age is 70. Breakfast (or late at night) eggs and bacon in an omalete style 4-5 eggs. beef/steak/and sometimes fish. I am not perfect as I will add cheese at times and my cod filets are breaded...(I know ..bad_)
🧠🧡
Lost 133 lbs, off 16 medications, off 02 24/7, regained lost muscle mass, blood work of a 25 year old!
Good for you! Multiple medications does crazy things to your body.
Hooray! It's Carnivore for me! I love the choices. I'm rid of the fibromyalgia, BP meds, and arthritis pains mostly gone, and I'm down 30# in 2 1/2 mo. with a 100#'s to go! 🎉 . Big Pharma doesn't want us to be well because they want the income! The food industry doesn't want us to eat healthy. No to carbs, no to veggies, yes to meats, seafood and water!
They don't want us healthy, they want us sick on meds. You are an inspiration to others to get healthier. That's awesome!
So wonderful to hear this-congratulations! Your life will love you forever as you both find out who you really are!❤️🌈🎶🎵🌿
What's your cure?
ALL junk, ultra processed, Fast foods, seed oils and all diet/high fructose soft drinks GONE!!! 50gms or less of carbohydrates/day.
High protein {Lean meat/eggs} Two meals a day and fasting for 19 hours/day.
Equals G.I. health, zero bloating and a healthier happy Jack. Yes, markedly decreased to a healthy weight, too.
Mikey, Chucky and Vinnie, thank you for all that you do for Humanity. Kudos and Cheers, Mate.
I did 55 carbs, felt great lost 30!
Meat is not the key to health, it’s getting rid of processed foods and calorie reduction. Meat raises risk of cancer.
Sounds about right! The fasting really works with two meals a day and eat protein no junk food but good carbs.
I tried that but was too low energy. Do you use stimulants like caffeine and nicotine? How much? I don't like caffeine it makes me feel weird.
@trollol_ Low energy, this was addressed with a daily two mile walk. The cravings took me about two weeks to get through, but after that. I eliminated all that I've posted above. Read the ingredient label and get very familiar with the ingredients and how they effect the Human body.
With just that understanding of the ingredients and their effects on the gut. It will forever change how you see foods from the commercial makers of food items. I find it to be priceless for my bodily improvements in health and quality of life. It's your future. Be there.
I do drink morning coffee with a touch of honey. {My only sugar source} and heavy whipping cream. Goodluck and carry on..
This just reminded me of something, I completely changed our habits by finding out book called The 21 Former doctor secrets by Rachel Morgan.
Thank you for sharing that
im reading it just now. will let you know my thoughts
I know that book. Def think its a must-read
Rachel is such an amazing Doctor

In my 20s I was chronically sick working in food service, eating all wrong and had celiac disease that I hadn't been diagnosed with prior. I was 128lbs, skin and bone with insane bloat and no brain function to speak of. Today, in my mid 30s, 140lbs, lean, clear headed, energetic, my diet is on point and I'm a landscape manager with no health issues. These kinds of conversations saved my life. Thank you to people like you putting this message out there. You are what you eat. If you eat crap, you'll be crap. If you eat well, you'll do well physically and financially.
What you eat is salad ok
@@joanneclark8256you can't make freinds with salad 😂
I had pre-diabetes and a very high fasting blood sugar. I immediately went on full carnivore diet, meat, fish, egg, cheese, apple cider vinegar, extra virgin olive oil. I ate as much as I felt I wanted.
My fasting blood sugar returned to normal in a few months. I dodged a bullet. I've been carnivore or semi-carnivore ever since.
Satiety was a word I only knew in theory, I'd never experienced satiation with food previously unless I had filled my stomach.
I saw two doctors and a nutritionist and I nearly had a gastric sleeve operation - nobody never ever talked about carnivore diet to me before.
Carnivore is proper human behavior.
Good for you. Have you ever checked out Jordan Peterson. He & his family are also on the carnivore diet.
@@jb-2714 Yepp. Word is spreading. Carnivore is proper human behavior.
The closer to Paleo Man that we get the healthier we become.
I watch my life long bestcfriends dear mother totally decline & die after gastric bypass..it was a long 5 plus year nightmare. She was better off being semi overweight. This is the part the docs will never tell you. I miss her all the time & been close to 10 years she has been gone. This info seems logical & common sense to me ❤. Thank you for sharing ❤. RIP Mawmaw ❤
@@WildWildWestTaurus1 Carnivore is proper human behavior.
I love Vinnie!! I have been low carb / keto for over 5 years and this is the way I will live the rest of my life!!
I was 385 lbs in April of 2023. In January 2024 I cut out all sugar and wheat. No exercise. Only ate salad and eggs. Fasted for 11 days in April, then started intermittent fasting to this very day. Now I’m 300 lbs, still dropping weight slowly. Feeling great!
So I have lost 85 lbs on a keto diet, and more importantly I am permanently eating differently for life! It’s a lifestyle or habit.
Good luck everyone!
Huzzah!
Congratulations and continued success.
Bravo!
It’s actually pretty easy, as long as you have a ruthless commitment. Be brutally ruthless with yourself. You can’t be double-minded, thinking diet is only temporary. If you want to change, you have to change, plain & simple.
You need to get proper nutrition and those eggs are ok but expensive and that salad is like eating foam rubber.Hunger is the main reason for failure for the majority of people on all those diets that were touted over the years. Proper Human Diet is fatty meat. Grass fed is nice but the grain finished will work if that is what you can afford. Dr. Ken D.Berry MD has lots of postings here on YT.Watch the early ones when he was keto and now he and his wife are now carnivore.
I have been involved with Vinnie’s Facebook group for over 10 years. It has been simply amazing seeing all the health changes made. Vinnie came along at the exact right time for me. Was once again gaining weight rapidly after yet another diet program. Thanks for having Vinnie on your show Mike and Chuck
What is the group called on Facebook?
Mike, you need to do a podcast about the history of Kellogg's and their relationship with Seventh Day Adventist's. If you like "rabbit holes", you'll love this....
100 %
Graham Crackers are another one to look up.
I agree. Belinda Fettke did a great deep dive and connected the dots. That will open more eyes. I hope they see this message.
SDA lol No One Is Coming To Save You--talk about rabbit holes-Ancel Keys was horrible..!
Yep, show the corruption of how this woke left group of militant 7th day Adventists started the “meat bad” agenda and trying to start their depopulation agenda by telling people to barely eat meat as it encourages procreation! Terrible! Look up Ellen G White! Her group designed the food pyramid, as well as “health” guidelines, are involved in “health” organizations, and even wrote the curriculum for doctors on “nutrition” which is very small, but all biased toward their agenda of “meat is bad” as it encourages healthy procreation. They even designed the vegan/ vegetarian scam diets too!
God encourages families to have children and meat keeps the human body healthy- and humans should only consume small to zero amount of plant based foods!
I’m now a Rowbie! Thanks Vinnie! I’ve watched all your docs, my husband and I are now following you on podcasts and TH-cam, Rumble. Thanks Mike for introducing Vinnie to us!
I am one of those people who has been transformed from the ketogenic diet, intermittent fasting, and whole, organic food consumption. Lost 65 pounds and counting. No more high blood pressure. I am 61 and have changed my life and health in 8 months. Went cold turkey off sugar, carbs, and processed foods.
I started carnivore 6 weeks ago. I'm down 42 pounds already. What's more surprising than that, is how much more energy & mental clarity I have. Already seeing improvements in some of my chronic health problems too.
Cutting out sugar & processed foods was brutal, I won't lie. The first 2 weeks was hell. But man... I'm kicking myself that I didn't try this a decade ago.
Vinnie is hardly the only one promoting this way of eating. It’s a huge movement. This is the first time I’ve heard of him.
I'm not sure that was even implied.
Doesn't matter. He speaks wisdom (and tells great stories).
5.5 Years Keto, maintaining healthy weight on a mostly animal based diet and feeling younger every year! Love the work Vinnie (and others) is doing to expose the lies by big food, big pharma and big government!
Key: Keto/Carnivore,good sleep, lift weights, Diet: no sugar, no flour, no processed foods, no seed oils, protein, saturated fat, very low carbs. And walk after 2-meals per day… I-Fasting will help.😊
to clarify... ... .... no seed oils, protein, saturated fats.... really should say no seed oils, yes protein, yes saturated fats...
@@stvcolwill Or just put a period after seed oils :)
Mike, I love that you work with Dave Ramsey, too. He is working in another area in life where, along with you and Vinnie, is doing the right thing in working hard to correct a system but not seeming to make a dent overall. The "right thing" in any part of life is never going to be adopted by the masses (who would prefer big government help them instead of helping themselves). But I'm an optimist and believe your and Vinnie's, and Dave's message is making it through to the people who need it.
I've been eating a ketogenic and Carnivore way of eating. I've lost over 170lbs and restored my health. Reversed my type 2 diabetes, reversed my high blood pressure, and more.
Two of the most prominent voices in their respective fields getting together for a sit-down. Great content. Always like hearing from Vinnie.
When someone tells me grains are bad I feel the same way as when I was told eggs, butter, and milk were bad. Something's off-kilter. The one time I naturally lost weight and kept it off I was eating a heap of rice each day (I was in the Philippines). I am convinced that the reason both low-carbohydrate and low-fat diets work is that, whichever one you go on, the first thing you do is stop eating desert (cookies, cup-cakes, candy bars) every day and fast food every other day. Drill down further (on either diet) and you start eliminating the highly processed foods. There is oil and sugar in just about everything they shovel at us.
Yep, both work in the short term. Either you starve yourself to your target (burn more than you intake of carbs), or you eat like we have for thousands and thousands of years (you know, before as a people we had cancer, auto immune diseases, type 2 diabetes, parkinsons, alzheimers and all these other chronic diseases) high amounts of whole foods rich in proteins and saturated fat. It really comes down to whatever you can find yourself sticking with.
You don't need carbs, ever. Rice? Never. Bread, never. Vegetables? Never. Fruits? Never. Sugar? Two teaspoons a day, max. Primarily Animal proteins and animal fats. No soy. No almond milk. No fruit drinks. Nothing but whole milk or coconut milk, or water. One cup of black coffee is probably ok. Any of the seed oils, NEVER. Seafoods, wild caught only. Beef, grass fed, pasture raised, no hormone's, no antibiotics. If you have a source for raw, unpasteurized, milk, drink that, it is far better than processed milk. The only reason milk is pasteurized is to increase shelf life, but it removes all the probiotics in raw milk that aid in digestion. Eggs are also a good source of protein. Cheese is good but be selective as there are many processed and and ultra processed cheese's out there that are no good for you. Butter? Absolutely, a half to a full stick a day is great. Black coffee to bitter for you're taste? Whole milk or half n half are fine and will take the bitter edge off you're coffee.
You’re correct, there is a video dive a guy did about Europe bread and US bread. Our grains are tampered with along with the breads full of preservatives. Not good for you nor meant for sustained consumption, it’s not WW2 anymore. Europe it’s fresh breads and pasta with simple ingredients. Grains give your brain essential nutrients, I believe it’s an omega specifically. I forgot the details on it.
Big food & Big pharma will NEVER let you put those ads on mainstream media.
Yep just like in 30 plus years we have never cured “cancer “ wonder why ? People are just so dense .. they don’t want us to cure illness
Amen to that I've been saying it for a long time those two are in bed together they're working in tandem with each other.
Another winner! Mike, you are the BEST interviewer. Great guest. Thank you.
High fat carnivore. Lost over half my body weight from 345 to 176. Cleared up tons of health issues from major to minor. Feel 20 years younger. Food pyramid not just wrong, it's the inverse of right.
Mike, Dr. Ken Berry needs to be one of your guests.
Absolutely! But also Callie & Casey Means. Mike will be shocked.
@@BarbCollins-v7b legit, they have so much more to share!!
Yes get them on here!!
Yes please!!! Make it happen Mike! Dr. Ken Berry is such a great speaker.
We have been keto 8 years and very happy. Aging stopped, lost weight and easily maintain my health
A couple years ago I went on the all meat diet and went from 4 to 5 rx a day to zero scrips six months in from starting.
I am lucky enough to be the fifth generation of the family beef business that my forefathers started in 1918. There’s been so many generations that the amount of land had been diluted to the point that only one of my siblings is able to make a living off of it but I still kept a few of my cows for sentimental reasons and still butcher my own beef. My buddy has a small feeding operation that takes cattle from the yearling age to slaughter weight by feeding expired produce from the regions big grocery stores. This is an amazing way to findish cattle. Most all the produce still looks as fresh as what many grocery stores have on the shelves but once it reaches it date it goes in the dump. When the produce arrives to the feedlot its dried and ran through the grinder then mixed with fresh ground hay and grass then put in the bunk for the cattle to eat free choice. There’s never been a happier pen full of cattle. They get everything that the fresh produce isle has and grow extremely well. We have a local packing plant that processes one calf at a time and doesn’t mix two beef together which is nice because our calves don’t have any antibiotics or growth hormones in them. We know that plastics are becoming a problem in humans bodies so our packing plant has gone back to using bees wax paper to wrap the meat in. The paper wrapped meat lasts longer in the freezer too. There’s on average 40-50 steers in the fat pen for sale for slaughter each month so if anyone is within 50 miles of OKC and wants a top notch fed calf ready for slaughter let us know. We are not officially in the butchered and packed meat business but if anyone wants fresh beef like this shipped to them call the slaughter plant in Shamrock TX and they might be able to hook you up with the best of the best. Not nearly as expensive as what the internet beef brands are either.
We are in Tulsa. Who do we call for this beef? Will travel!
Some people including individuals in health care ,talk as though Keto is a fad diet not a lifestyle change. Following a SAD certainly didn't make my body happy or healthy. Look at who funds the food pyramid. A year ago I was a size 20 down now down to a size 14 and holding. God bless the people like this man who continue to put this information out and keep pushing rocks up the hill.
The Keto diet has it’s origins in a way to treat epilepsy, about a century ago.
Really enjoyed this interview. Mike Rowe’s voice!!!! Wow! I’ve been on NSNG since 2016 (heard about Vinnie on Adam Carolla back in the day). Vinnie CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER! I’m so glad he does the work he does. He’s saving lives!
I don't drink alcohol, but the story of the alcoholic in the ER and what the kind-hearted nurse did brought tears to my eyes.😢
Mike Rowe, amazing content keep it up bro
I owe my present health to Vinnie. 50 pounds later, no more pre-diabetes, no more BP meds, etc. Thank you so much for promoting this man back in 2022.
Congratulations!❤
My father was the first traveling Phys Ed teach K-5 in the early 70's. He traveled to four different elementary schools in Pa. and promoted the physical fitness program. Very proud of him and kids remember him to this day, he had a colorful life! God bless him !
I love this podcast!! I have been preaching this same message for over 20 years. You are correct in saying that only a few will listen. It takes sometime for those who do listen to take action. There was one that said she will never read food labels.. However she has now and was able to get off all her meds and reverse her type two diabetes.. what is very discouraging as well is that some people I talk to are skinny and they think that they don’t have anything to worry about.
I am a 73 year old energetic, constantly moving female. I was diagnosed with type one diabetes at the age of 58. I considered a blessing and a curse. Mainly because I don’t know if I would have ever read food labels or realize how our food system is.
Since being on Anselin, I have gained quite a bit of weight, and I have not been able to get any help from anyone because of being type one.. however over the past year, I have realized that the medical sector has it all backwards. They tell you to take the amount of insulin according to the amount of carbs you’re eating. That is not the case. You need to eat the amount of carbs of the insulin you’re taking. For instance, I allow myself seven units of insulin per meal. Therefore, I make sure that my carbs do not exceed that. I do not take insulin for breakfast because I don’t eat any carbs and I also able to keep my blood sugar low up until lunch with the activities that I’m involved in. So far, I’m only taking insulin for two meals. I don’t eat between meals unless my sugar is very low, but I do not take any insulin between meals.
I have cut out most grains. It is a process for sure. I do not eat any processed foods. Any Goodies I eat I bake. For example I eat a quarter of a pumpkin muffin. According to this podcast I still have some bad habits but I think they are small in comparison to what it was. I have been able to lose 15 pounds over the past several months because of the method I’m using.
I’m not sure if any of this is relevant, but I appreciate you very much and allow me to make these comments. I would love to be a part of your group of getting more of the word out, but I have very little social intervention, so I’m not sure how much I can do other than just speak to the people that I come in contact with..
Thank you, Mike for all your podcasts. They are very informative, but this tops them all.
I grew up in that era when no one was fat except me and now in my mid 50's I am finally truly free and still hopeful that I will get some small measure of life. BBB&E for life, because it saved my life.
Toliet paper segment ... priceless. Podcast was amazingly enlightening.
I love my bidet.
Went carnivore 5 months ago. Lost 30 lbs and am down 2 pant sizes. I have more energy, mental clarity, depression gone and libido is through the roof. Got off my depression and blood pressure medication. I have never felt better in my life as an adult.
I started flowing Vinnie the first time i heard him on Mike Rowe's podcast. Im back in the same shape i was in when i was 20. Thats with out working out. I have better gut health than I did as well.
My Great Grandfather lived to be 99 yrs old, and he ate pretty much nothing but eggs and bacon for breakfast, and steak for dinner, followed by a tall glass of whiskey and a cigar on the porch..
Seems like all the folks who make the 100+ club will tell you they ate the same way.
I’m 77 when we were kids we had very little sugar, dessert was a rarity, very little pasta, but potatoes. Always fruit and a big salad with our meals. We did eat bread and oatmeal. We were all thin till the 90s after we ate by the pyramid. Now I’m eating meat and veggies and plain yogurt and coffee. I’ve been able to lose weight slowly but I feel better about my health.
I've worked out and exercised all my life. I've tried to do everything I could to live a long and healthy life. 6'2" and at one time I got up to 232lbs mainly due to crappy eating habits. I was reading all I could about diets along the way and it wasn't helping with the gradual rise in my weight. Finally, some doctors started coming clean and risking their licenses being taken away and teaching us what it really going on. After following their advice, I dropped down to 195lbs 4 years ago and I haven't gained anything back. We all know our government and its agencies are bought and paid for, so we really have to dig deep to find the truthful answers. Thanks to Mike, Vinnie, Dr Berg and Dr Berry there is plenty of good info out there to get you on your way. No excuses anymore.
Sugar today is corn syrup vs sugar cane from 50-60 yrs ago. The food pyramid is the prefect recipe to fatten livestock, thus fattening humans too!
grain washing.
Carnivore diet.
Profiting the banksters, and pharma, plus population control, with no retirement payout.
Do the carnivore diet to break the carbohydrate and sugar addiction. Then, after about 1-3 years of pure carnivore, you can start to add single foods (broccoli or cabbage, etc) back in to your diet to see which ones do not cause problems. The carnivore diet is the diet to break addiction to the sugars because it is so satiating. As your local butcher (yes Safeway has butchers) to give you a 70/30 ground beef... tastes just like steak... then, eat that with sugarless bacon and eggs and plenty of salt. Also, until your body acclimates to the new diet, take electrolytes and whatever you do, triple the amount of water you were drinking. I drink between 90 to 150 ounces of water a day. You'll lose weight, you'll stop snoring, you'll eventually cure your type 2 diabetes, you'll cure your IBS, you'll cure your Crohn's disease, you'll cure your hypertension and you'll cure the vast majority of your autoimmune diseases. Do it.
Keep fighting the good fight. I just recently started my journey to try to cut out processed foods and carbs and grains. I have listened to several podcasts recently. Between Joe Rogan, PBD, and many others. So many guests have been preaching the same thing. At first I was skeptical. After a few podcasts with different guests, I started to really think about what I was hearing. We, as a country, need to wake up and see the corporate influence in every single aspect of our lives. Now, off to find your 2 documentaries. I’m gonna show them to my family. Everybody needs to know.
100% Please also look at seed oils. Do more research. Inflammation and toxic chemical stuff is real. Keep going brother!
Carnivore has healed so much for me! I started off carnivore in hopes to reverse my fibrocystic breast masses that have built up over 6 years eating half a dry skinless chicken breast piece a day with half cup of broccoli and little bit of wheat noodles. We are told don’t eat very much meat- so the world is almost vegan just about. I would eat red canbbage too- cooked it and ate cabbage about 3 times a week. That was about it. So I was mainly chicken, broccoli, and little wheat noodles. So from age 40-46 I started getting all that “aging” health issue mess- and the fibrocystic breast “disease” started and kept building up! When I hit age 46 I was done with it! The fibrocystic masses were getting me scares- and I started getting huge painful breast cysts too! One was around 2” long and 1” wide! Docs would say, “we don’t know what causes fibrocystic breasts disease” and “fibrocystic breasts is now normal because everyone is getting it” and “fibrocystic breast could turn into cancer” and “there is nothing you can do for fibrocystic breasts” and “diet doesn’t cause fibrocystic breasts!” I was gaining weight too and by summer of 2022 I hit perimenopause at age 46 and got every symptom you could think of. My joints were hurting too, no sleep at night, dizzy at times, it was ridiculous! I know it had to be diet! Little did I know that all the other health issues I had all my life, in addition to this mess listed above, was all due to diet!
I went searching online and found the truth of my fibrocystic problem! Found out cruciferous veggies (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, and asparagus) are all cruciferous veggies that block natural iodine absorption found in foods! And if you become depleted in iodine it messes up your thyroid which controls all- even hormones! And all organs need iodine including breasts! They swell if you are deficient! And I read these cruciferous veggies can cause cancer due to lack of iodine in body since they block absorption! Bingo! We are all being told to eat cruciferous veggies, that they can prevent cancer, and to eat lots of it including broccoli!! But in fact they are causing cancer and I truly feel it is causing all the fibrocystic breast cases that have been escalating lately that we are seeing! When I post about this and ladies write back saying they too had fibrocystic breasts, I ask, “do you eat cruciferous veggies, especially broccoli” and they all have said, “YES!”
I did more research and found carnivore! I Jumped right in! In 6-8 weeks I lost 45 pounds! My perimenopause reversed! In fact don’t even get PMS symptoms and my cycle is perfectly paced! And so much more reversed that I started writing it down! And yes, my fibrocystic breast masses shrank!
I share my progress because I want people to see how carnivore can heal so much and most of these things are commonly healed for many, not just me! I want to help and this is how I do- by sharing. No I am not paid to do this, I just want to help people see and be aware of what carnivore can do!
I do update this list as I have been on carnivore (more lion diet version) for 2 years now. I feel this has helped so many decide if they should try carnivore. I always say go watch Dr. Baker, Dr. Chaffee, and Dr. Berry- my three most favorite doctors. They are truly amazing! I call them my carnivore doctors! ☺️
* No more perimenopause- completely reversed!
*Period cycles all timed perfect with 4 week intervals.And no PMS symptoms, but only the actual menstrual cycle itself!
*No more night sweats
*No more waking every 2 hours at night!
*It used to take me 20 minutes or longer to fall asleep at night when I would first go to bed at night- before carnivore. Now it takes like a minute or less. Haven’t noticed since I am out fast!
*No more life long eczema
*No more cold hands (may have been Reynold’s disease, never diagnosed.)
*No more cold body temp in general! Used to feel like a reptile - only warm in texas sun. (may have been Raynaud’s disease, never diagnosed.)
*No more IBS symptoms (gas, bloating, stomach pain, constipation, diarrhea)
*No more feeling low energy by 12pm and zombie by 4pm
*No more purple looking hands in winter (may have been Raynaud’s disease, never diagnosed.)
*No more brain fog
*No more arthritis that I felt in hands, knees, and hips- or elbows
*used to have sore hips when sleeping on my side. No more!
*Lost 45+ pounds from former baby weight and peri menopause weight.
*Always had 20/20 vision with slight stigmatism- but in March doctor said my stigmatism is reversing!
*Don’t sunburn as easily anymore and tan well.
*Wrinkles around eyes seem to be much less. I am 47 and look like I am in early 30’s.
*Gums look super healthy. Dentist seems irritated as my teeth are not dirty when cleaning every six months. Think they know they won’t make money off me.
*No more sore chest from monthly periods- no swelling feeling of fullness or discomfort that prevented me from sleeping on my stomach. Now I sleep every night on my stomach!
*Fibrocystic Breast issues reversing! Almost all gone after 6 years of buildup!
*no cravings unless they are for meat
*no more angina symptoms before a period- which started about 3 years ago.
*No more feeling weak like almost passing out and dizzy around ovulation and periods when walking around.
* no more fingers swelling- that started a few years ago- rings kept being tight- is pattern I noticed. One ring I had resized larger and it’s super loose now. Will have to resize smaller.
*feel stronger- now lifting barbells not just hands weights. Dr. Baker said since I am 46, and 5’7” at 122lbs- need more resistance training to add more muscle weight. . So bought a 47lb barbell off Amazon and have 90 extra pounds added to it. Will continue to progress with that.
*Before carnivore- i had started growing grey hairs in one of my eyebrows, few hairs at a time, but no grey in my blonde hair yet - but assumed it was coming. Now on carnivore I have had no new grey hairs growing in eye brows and still no grey hair in my natural blonde hair. And in the sun it gets super light highlights.
* no more body odor!
* I used to get a little anxiety with large crowds- like if attending special events- but since on carnivore I don’t get it that much.
*I was a bit OCD before carnivore, but so much more relaxed so barely like that.
* I was a relaxed person before, but somehow am even more relaxed and never stress about things.
*Since I was a young child my sense of smell has been terrible. But not even a month in on carnivore my sense of smell has gone crazy! I smell things even far away! Amazing!
*no more allergies! I was allergic to cedar and oak pollens- and mold- but since carnivore I am no longer reacting to those outdoor pollens which is amazing!
* I have had no more issues from ear wax build up. Had it twice after having kids and docs would say it was a hormonal problem. Carnivore cured that too!
*Veins in my arms look healthier. They were almost invisible before.
*Legs no longer hurt on longer road trips or plane rides!
*I used to get a popping sounds in my right shoulder when lifting weights. Was probably a pulled ligament. That is now gone!
*I have been lactose intolerant since I was a kid, and I feel my nails are a bit stronger than before. They do break if I catch them on things but I feel they are getting stronger on carnivore.
*My teeth look more white on carnivore.
*My blood pressure has improved on carnivore. 6 years before carnivore up to starting carnivore my blood pressure was increasing. Now on carnivore it is back to normal like when I was younger. Last reading it was 100/75 which is awesome!
*i used to get eye twitches in my eye lids, but that is gone.
* at times when trying to fall asleep I would close my eyes and at times felt dizzy like falling feeling or spinning. But haven’t has that since I have been on carnivore for 12 months.
*the skin on the heals of my feet are no longer cracked and dry!
*little leak from sneezing or coughing that ladies get from estrogen dominance is gone on carnivore! Hormones balanced so no more estrogen dominance!
*The top inner corner of both my larger toes have felt a little numb for years. Never had it diagnosed. But being 1 year on carnivore I no longer feel that numbness! My nerves have healed in that spot on both toes! Crazy!
*My slightly receding gums behind my center bottom front teeth have rebuilt so gums all over are super healthy! I have flossed daily for years, but gums look even healthier!
*my skin on my face isn’t as oily as it used to be.
*My hair used to be super oily if not washed daily, but carnivore has regulated my hair so I can now go days without having to wash it- doesn’t get oily after one day like before! (Newest update added!)
Want to mention if you start to get any allergy symptoms further into carnivore you may have histamine intolerance. Happened to me if I ate smoked meats daily for months straight. Went back to baking my meats and all the symptoms went away! Look into histamine intolerance when starting carnivore to make sure you know symptoms and not to eat smoked aged meats daily like I did if you get symptoms. Eat smoked meats less often.
I do go outside daily for at least an hour a day during week and several hours on weekends if possible! I try to stay on consistent sleeping schedule of 6-8 hours of sleep and sleep like a bear!☺️
So there you go! ☺️ I hope this helps people on their journey to fins out what works for them! Carnivore is working for everyone that tries. Go watch Dr. Baker, Dr. Chaffee, and Dr. Berry! And go visit Kerry’s channel at Homesteadhow! We love him too! ☺️
Thank you for sharing! I read all of that! I have a question... Is carnivore simply eating only meats? Or do you include other animal products such as milk and butter?
Vinnie made a big difference in my life. Went from 230 pounds down to 180 and lost all pain in knees and wrist. Still pain free after 9 years.
215 to 176 so far in 3 mts. Just questioned a lady at a luncheon why she was eating steak out of Tupperware. Took her clues and voila. I'm sure I could refine details but I'm near the point of worrying that I might not be able to stop losing. :)
As a career carpenter now retired, I’m on board with trade schools and in my 60’s got on KETO and got faster on my bicycle than ever before. I love your show!
Why have I never heard of Vinnie? I've been carnivore/keto over 2 years, and I lost more than half my weight. Thanks for the interview, Mike. I'll go watch his videos. Also, don't drink! Or only on occasion please. It's so bad for you.
I look at ingredients in EVERYTHING sugar is in EVERYTHING....
That is a true statement, Ma'am.
Not. Sodium sugar corn sugar preservertives. 90 percent of the problem is people sitting around not doing anything. Over 50 percent of women are fat now their kids are fat too. 30 years ago you didn't have much TV and no video games.
It doesn't take much in the way of exercise (if you are eating from the edges of the grocery store). A 15-30 minute walk most days will work wonders.
It's too bad people didn't check out the ingredients in the new vaccine. Or the meaning of EUA (emergency use authorization) and what that means. It means they didn't need to follow the same rules for 'good manufacturing practices' those rules no longer applied.
I look for anything that say Bioengineered ingredients and stay far away from it. Eat real food. Mexico just stopped buying corn from the US bc bioengineered corn.
9 months ago I weighed 334 lbs... today I weighed 228 lbs...thx KETO!
Hooo-ya!!🎉 Congratulations!
Thank you!
excellent!!! I am almost the same at 11 months in but you are a couple pounds ahead of me .. Congratulations. 335 to 233
What do you eat?!
Can you post some ideas or just recipes?
I need to start this! haha
Divine intervention, so true. I prayed for years with help to lose weight, but did nothing about (diet change, portion control, etc). Just over a month ago, I woke up in the middle of the week, work from home, homeschool 3 kids, and I started an elimination diet. I've lost 35lbs in 5wks. It's possible, you just have to want it enough!
Love Vinnie's work. He's making a difference.
Been eating like this for 7yrs! My 37 yr old son started a few months ago, finally. He admitted to me a few days ago that he's getting checked for cancer this week. He's making his own bone broth and fasting. Every generation is getting sicker at a younger age.... I'm scared to death right now, but know he's on the right track and there's hope.....
Going to add to these comments since they're following in my wheelhouse. Been meat-heavy keto since mid-late 2022, carnivore since late last year, and strict carnivore since March. I didn't do it for weight loss and I've got a skinny build to begin with, but it's been the best thing I've ever done. Mental clarity is crazy, sharper now than I was a teenager (31 now), with much more conviction than ever. Vinnie's right, only YOU have the ability to help yourself, and once you find this way of eating, there are many adversaries saying it's bad for you, but you have to educate yourself as well as ask questions and play devil's advocate. Whenever someone says you're doing something wrong, look at them and their state of health, and ask if you would sincerely take their advice against what you know now
My son is 45 and follows a keto diet. Couple of years ago he was so sick, couldn't digest anything and I was finally able to drag him to a doctor. At six feet, he weighed in at 122 lbs. They checked everything and couldn't find anything wrong. He decided to go full on keto and GAINED weight (which we wanted) and is so much healthier. Doctor also put him on an SSRI to help with severe anxiety and he's actually doing great. I think he weighs about 145 now and is building muscle. Keto really makes a difference. And our doctor approves of keto.
Awesome podcast i need this. Went from 411 to 231 5 years ago by starving and exercising out of my mind for 12 months. Now back to 364 and fell miserable. I need a sustainable way
Also don’t forget to give President Reagan credit for youth physical fitness. He had a program too and you could earn a presidential jacket and arm patch. It was cool, I earned one in junior high!
I totally agree with Vinnie and how sad it is about big business tainting our nutrition. Thank for speaking truth when mainstream want to boost $$$ for themselves. Sickening indeed and need to grow our own food and supporting local businesses like our butchers.
Dropped 115 lbs in 9 months reversed heart, disease, metabolic syndrome, and serious arthritis
In 2019. Put on 20+ lbs of muscle since.
No processed food allowed.
Are you a gut or girl? What foods you eat?
Tristan Hood here, and 10 years ago I started a journey of tracking what I was eating and it changed my life. I had just gotten news from the doctor that I would need to be on blood pressure medication for the rest of my life. A friend suggested tracking and Whole 30. I started with tracking, found that I was drinking 7 cups of coffee full of sugar and creamer every day. I cut that in half and lost 10 pounds after a week. After just 6 months, I had lost 55 pounds, was no longer putting sugar or creamer in my coffee, and I had been on the whole 30 as a new lifestyle. After 33 years of regular migraines, I no longer had headaches. Since then, no weight gain, and I ran my first marathon in 2023. Sugar overload is killing us. Dropping added sugar from my diet has been a life changer.
Example #2 I go to see my Cardiologist ( I weigh 118 pds with HBP) from the Dr. To all the staff are at least 30 to 40 pds overweight. They have all lost their credibility with me! He told me to go home and start meditating, I said ok, as long as you and everyone in this office go’s on Keto.
😂❤ lol!!! That's awesome 👌 👏
LOL love it
I just recently started a keto diet, can't quite afford carnivore. For some reason I've always had a belly that sticks out from the rest of my body. I'm not extremely overweight or anything. Within a week of starting my diet, my stomach flattened out to a more normal shape and the only thing I can think of is all the inflammation from a high carb, high processed food diet finally went away.
Well, yes and carbs. Also, make you hold onto excess water weight apparently.
Great show. Been doing the E2M (Eager 2 Motivate) program for the past 2 years and it's been fantastic. Keeping weight off, eating real food, great exercise program, and I'm feeling great. Keep up the great work, Mike!!
Everything that we did 40 years ago was correct. From the marketing to the misogyny. Why? Because 40 years ago, we had a society, today we have chaos.
I always tell people that exercise is not how you
lose weight. It's diet but no one believes me.
Keto or carivore? Salads ok whole food?
Mark Sisson said years ago diet is 80% and exercise 20%. Also said fat loss is about hormones not calories. Some others are catching up.
I eat animal base and I don't exorcize. My weight stays the same in spite of having a desk job. I do work in my yard on the weekends or go camping and hiking. So I get movement, but nothing like what people do who work out at the gym.
@@StelleenBlack most people I know who go to the gym say they go so they can eat whatever they want. It doesn’t work.
OG rowbie here, 90lbs down in 2 years
Mike, I would love to talk sometime about how I worked hard early in HS, so I would have one class my junior and senior years, so I could work full time. I was a welder. Growing up, that what I did into my 20's. Started to hate it because back in the early 90's, it didn't pay squat. So, after losing everything and eating out of garbage cans, I moved here to NE, got a job with the gov in IT. Went to college at night. Took 6 years to get my BS in IT management. Took 6 months off and went back to get my MAM. Here I am 11 years after that graduation, still in IT and wished I would have stayed in the trades back then and had someone tell me that there were a half dozen opportunities that I walked away from because I thought I would make more. What a sad thing. At least I met my wife and can die happy with her lol. Thank you for all you do.
My hubs got an engineering degree back in the 1970s but was always wanting to learn new stuff so he would train at a friend's welding shop on weekends and got certified. After that, when he was designing plants and needed pipe fitters, he just filled in and saved the companies money because he was on salary as their chief chemical engineer. Strange guy. Used to like to make his own clothes, his mom was a dressmaker. Made our daughter's prom dress. Also likes to draw and create comics. 72 years old, never stops learning new stuff. Next to him, I feel like an old fuddy duddy.
Had severe RA for many years. Went carnivore for 45 days and it completely changed my life. It isn't easy in the beginning. Get past the first few days and you'll be fine.
Never heard of this guy, but he's 100% on target.
He’s great.
Watch his documentaries.. they're terrifying.
Vinnie is a legend. Highly recommend his documentaries and interviews on various podcasts, particularly Adam Carolla’s podcast.
Mike. Since April of this year I have gone from 254lbs to 197 lbs. NSNG works. Big food hates me!! I eat meat, fat and almost no veggies. My son was 170 lbs now he's 125 lbs. We did it together!
Been on carnivore for 4 months. I only eat meat and meat products. Took my body two months to learnt to use ketones for energy. Lost 25 pounds without trying. Never felt better.
Do you mean 2 weeks? Because it's usually 1-2 weeks... And yeah, been on it for 7 weeks now and the effortless gain loss is awesome, not having back and knee pain, not having bain fog is great.
Even where I'm from, I remember as a child being extremely active in school - climbing ropes, doing peg boards, pushups, pullups, jumping rope, running around the grounds on a track OUTSIDE, hell they even had an 'olympics' every year with a bunch of track and field events. It was a blast and I remember all the energy, good vibes, and enthusiasm for life that came with it.
TMI. I laughed so hard at the toilet paper discussion. I have never thought of folding again. One of my kids biology teachers said there should be nothing to wipe if you eat healthy. I agree.
I am at the beginning of changing my way of eating. It’s difficult because of tiredness and convenience but I keep moving forward. My aim is not particularly weight loss but overall health. Also, I stopped supporting and viewing Wikipedia a couple years ago. They’re not a vehicle of truth but for an agenda. Sad.
Great podcast. Powerful!
We are not a society that's deliberately lazy, fat, sad, anxious, suicidal, and out to hurt/kill each other on purpose.
We are a society that has been undermined by big food and pharma.
Ultra-processed foods and beverages are undermining our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual health!
Ultra-processed foods and beverages should not be consumed regularly.
The longing to experience something more is inherent in humans. Unless we bring forth a holistic approach, drugs will be ubiquitous:
-Drink more water.
-Eat mostly whole foods.
-Increase your physical activity level.
-Manage your weight.
-Connect and join groups of people aspiring to live a healthy lifestyle.
-Make change that lasts.
I have been thinking about that weeping Indian ad from the 60s a lot lately as I try to get my neighborhood strip mall to manage the litter.
I’m so excited to be on the side of helping people start being healthy especially low income people. I’m a nutritional therapy practitioner and just starting my practice. I hope to get some laws changed around WIC and SNAP in the future so low income people can have better access to healthy foods
I am totally disgusted with the government and subsequent marketing lies to inundate my husband and I with processed terrible fake foods night and day.
I’ve been carnivore for 18 months. I was keto for a couple of years before that. At my heaviest I was 540 lbs, now 306 lbs and still losing. I was bed ridden 10 years with multiple autoimmune diseases. Carnivore put 7 autoimmune diseases into remission, healed 3 discs in my lower back, reversed bipolar disorder, reversed high blood pressure, and much more. Carnivore saved my life.
I wish they covered negative affects of weight gain from medications. It's not all food.
Exactly. I was put on prednisone for 7 years. You'll eat wallpaper paste and like it. I gained a lot of weight. Working to getting it off now on keto. 12 lbs in 8 months. Slow and steady.
I am only 19 minutes in and I would say if the Rowes lost a million pounds, you are both 💯 making a difference. Keep going and thank you.
It's such a big problem that the Armed Forces no longer have enough qualified candidates to recruit from.
This former QVC Host wishes you were still around when I got there. You're the BEST Mike. My husband and I have been Carnivore for almost 500 days! I'll never go back to eating crappy carbs and frankenfoods. When selling exercise equipment on the Q, I was trying to give people something they could relate to, but saying they're carrying around a bowling ball for every 10 lbs they are overweight...no WONDER they're tired and life is tough.
Awe, remember you from QVC ❤! Love to see that you are eating/sharing a proper human diet!🙌
@kcluvznf Thx for remembering! I can't believe how long it's been since then! I ate so poorly when on air... lots of Boost, Ensure, and cereal....uggghhh. Those overnights were killers! Many didn't know that I was the second oldest woman to Kathy Levine. I'm SO GLAD I found Carnivore, and I'll NEVER go back. My body took to 🥩🧈🥓🥚🥚s sooo easily, and now I feel sooo good. There's no choosing any other way.
Dr. Casey Means and Calley Means, book “Good Energy”. Also works with RFK Jr. Also watch Tucker Carlson long interview with these two. Very real and very well understood podcast for those who are curious. 1 can be heard, but when there are many voices things can happen. Mike Rowe get everybody together. We are a sick dying nation. There is also research that all this bad food is messing with hormones. All the people above are having the conversation on lots of podcast. Casey has a way with words that are not insulting.

I’m 6’2” I weighed 291 in April earlier this year 2024. After many years of struggling with weight I finally was able to get Semaglutide for it. Here I am 30 lbs lighter and 4 months later. No exercise, and I eat until I feel full. Sometimes it’s normal amounts and sometimes it’s less than my usual normal.
I understand that I will have to eventually find a way to find homeostasis without this medication. However, this medication has been a miracle for me.
The “square folding” was the best part!!! So many of us can probably relate! 😂
Another guest of Mike that I have never heard of or seen before. That is okay. No preconceived thoughts. An interesting man. God bless Mike.
Thank you for keeping it real! Loved the toilet paper discussions. ❤
