I've been watching your videos for about three months., so a lot of these I have,,,, Avocado, Mushrooms, Butter, Beef, Eggs... I have been using Tuna in water and also oysters,,, Also do Bulletproof Coffee Every Morning and ACV before meals to help with Fasting. I have some Bone Broth, haven't really touched it... Probably will use it in cooking or maybe as a drink... I need to look into getting Sauerkraut in my rotation and adding some tinned fish.
I have all those items currently, except for the beef liver tablets. But based on your recommendation, I've just ordered them. I can't stand just looking at raw liver so this will be a better alternative. Thanks for your advice 😊
I started eating 4 free range eggs in the morning when my RA is acting up. My pain is 80% gone within an hour. Along with IF and Keto I expect to be 90% pain free within a year. Thanks for sharing this, as always amazing video!!!
Eggs are also one of the most (if not THE MOST) plentiful sources of choline, a very important nutrient for the body found in the membranes of every cell in the body (if I’m remembering my biochemistry correctly).
I had never had sardines or herring before & I was looking for a canned meat in addition to tuna to put in our pantry, so last Autumn a friend had me over for 4 different kinds of tinned fish. I was surprised that I really liked both the sardines & herring, so they get rotated into salads.
You seem to be recovering very nicely from your surgery. Good health promotes fast healing! My cupboard is filled with tins of mackerel, sardines, salmon, tuna, cod livers, and oysters. These make wonderful starters to your meals. I eat them right out of the tin or make them a little more interesting with a dab of avocado mayonnaise or hot sauce. I also prepare oyster stew with oysters, heavy whipping cream, butter, garlic, salt, and pepper. Eggs are an everyday thing. Hardboiled, softboiled, fried, or scrambled. The scrambled eggs are usually topped with nutritional yeast. Fresh beef, pork, salmon, and chicken are frequent entrees. Egg drop soup, with eggs, bone broth, garlic, salt and pepper, is also fairly common. Avocados are a frequent desert or appetizer. Olives are good, too. I try to add a square or two of unsweetened baker's chocolate with 100% cacao every day. It's too bitter for most people, but after a year of carnivore it seems rather sweet! Thanks for all of the wonderful videos you've provided. They've helped to keep me on track and focused. You always seem to provide motivation when needed. Life changes are hard to make without some sort of outside support. Keep up the good work!
Kait... You're so patient, helping us to remember those important basics you've educated us of in the past. Obviously, this is especially done for us guys! Thank you, Kait! P.S. You look absolutely great!
Chicken hearts, liver, and gizzards are delicious cooked in bacon grease. It would probably improve the taste of beef liver as well, as everything is better with bacon.
Liver tastes pretty darn good if you cut it in small pieces and fry it quickly and lightly in a puddle of brown butter. Once cooked, add plenty salt, a bit of pepper, a dusting of nutmeg and a pinch of ground cloves. I mean lots of butter. If you want pâté, you can just cool it a bit and run it through the food processor or blender. It keeps really well in the fridge and freezes nicely in small, single serve containers. It almost tastes like tourtière.
Another good video Kait, for what it’s worth I cook my beef liver very thinly sliced in butter Onions and mushrooms with green peppercorns just towards the end I add a dash of red wine and cream.
Thank you once again Dr Omole on RU-vid for this information. Since following you (for some years now), my kidney stage results has decrease from stage 3 to stage 1. You saved me from dialysis. Thank you and please keep the videos coming!! God Bless 🙏🏽
You're SO right.. I've been vegetarian and vegan for 30 years.. I went keto, but still mostly vegan keto for 12 years. I started carnivore 2 months ago - my energy levels were through the roof! I finally FEEL PROTEIN. I've been SO protein deficient.
Beth here...I ferment my own sauerkraut, and it's soooo much better than store bought. New ketovore here and I just can't give up my coffee with cream and a sprinkle of sea salt in the morning and then again in the afternoon.
I don't think I've ever written a word in your channel (although I'm an eager commentator, and usually sharply critical to ANY errors). The reason for that is you're ALWAYS so well prepared substantively, and you don't BS 😉. You're doing a magnificent job, girl! Thanks to such people AS YOU LOVE: I've lost approx. 30 kgs over the past year, I stopped 100% ALL the medication for cholesterol, I stopped 3/4 of ALL the previous medication for my hypertension, and ... TAA DAAA ... I stopped almost ALL[correction: ALL] my diabetes medication!! NO insuline. No gliclazide, NO Metformine. Just a little of hypertension drug. KAIT, YOU'RE SOME COACH !! (and only NOW I'm gonna watch the video)
I have recently (like in the past week) come across your channel and have already benefited from your advice. I had success on a keto way of eating and abandoned it. But I’m back and was having trouble getting into ketosis. Your tips have helped and I see a difference in a few days and am in ketosis now. Learned lots of new things and have ordered products to help on my journey back to a healthier me. Thank you from Atlanta, Kait!
I wish you would promote at least cage free if not free range if not farm fresh eggs because factory produced farm eggs are absolutely a horrendous nightmare for chickens and the slaughter and the cruelty is over the top I think Tito's great I think protein's great but we need to do it in a responsible manner and right now regular factory eggs are not in any way shape or form free from cruelty.
Hi, I’ve following your channel on nutrition for a while.. with the canned fish is it safe to consume while pregnant.. it be great if you could do a video for women considering getting pregnant/pregnant for optimum health and that’s safe to consume while on this type of diet
I eat the same foods most days too! I love that they are easy! I stuff my avocado with tuna or chicken salad and serve it on top of a big salad! Super easy and great for spring and summer.
Amazing video, I also eat these foods everyday, and during winter months adhere to a strong high omega 3 and KETO diet, and always go into spring feeling incredible, lean, thin and strong, Thank You for what you do, all the very best.
I always have most of these foods as well. Eggs, beef (ground, steak, hamburgers), always have a few quarts of bone broth in the fridge, guacamole cups, butter (usually ghee), various veggies like broccoli, asparagus, or greens, beef liver, salmon, and apple cider vinegar are staples in my fridge/pantry.
Love this video!! I tend to keep it stupid simple, eggs, beef, salmon, leafy greens, avocados and nutritional yeast. Super efficient and affordable 😍❤️
i like simple also, but I do also buy frozen veggies and berries. I bake large batches of chicken thighs, eat some, fridge a couple, also save the pan drippings/gel for soup, and freeze the rest of the thighs in single or 2-pak for convenient use later on. I have yet to get into nutritional yeast (want non-fortified and can order online but still looking for non-fortified near me). Also, usually have sauerkraut in fridge but have yet to make my own. I have recently added cod liver oil .. great stuff.
Omgoodness! I’ve been eating all that stuff all my life! Mackerel we had for breakfast sometimes growing up in the islands… I love the actual liver though, liver and onions, whether it be cow liver or chicken liver… but eating all these foods probably explained why my periods were so light and I rarely had cramps growing up, unlike my friends! Grossness alert! One of my favourite things also growing up and till this day is sucking out the marrow in stewed bones, especially chicken bones like in curry chicken. (The hubby calls me his little pit bull 😊) But I think it’s one of the secrets to my healthy condition going on over 50 years of age. I have no ailments, no allergies etc. I never ate them because they were healthy though, but simply because they tasted good! This was great to watch. Thanks for the informative vid!
I would be interested to know your thoughts on conventional meats, fish & eggs, as expenses are an issue. Would you still eat what you do if you could only afford conventional. Love your vids.
I have all of these except beef liver and bone broth...have the bones but have been lazy to make the broth :(. Over the last week, I have upped my ACV intake from once/day to three times per day (morning/before day, noon/large meal, and evening/before bed)...have slept a lot better! Thanks for the advice.
Hi Kait! Excellent presentation by my favorite Canadian! Sauerkraut and beef liver surprised me. Haven’t had either in years. Pork & sauerkraut and liver & onions were staples growing up in the Pennsylvania Dutch area of Pennsylvania! Enjoy your summer!
can you drink tea like blackberry, nettle, and black tea between meals when you have insulin resistance? if yes is there any benefit to drinking it hot vs. cold?
Holy crap i'm really envious that you can even buy grass-fed meat that cheap :/ here in my country where you can almost only find grass-fed at a farmer that do deliver to you, that is grass-fed you have to take your price times x3. If you would manage to find it a store it's more expensive and only specific cuts you can buy. The price you are paying there is still cheaper then the normal average meat here. I really hate the food prices in my country, people think we joke when they hear the prices here.
Love this list! Mushrooms and avocados are the only ones I need to work on adding into mine and my family’s diet. Thanks for taking the time to share this list! Now I’m going to go search for what I eat in a day to see how you put all these together.
Mushrooms in butter - this could upset the stomach. I heard a story about a man who ate mushrooms and had stomach upset. When he told the doctor about his concern that the mushrooms caused the upset, the doctor told him to skip the butter next time. Mushrooms should also be fresh, or if preserved then dried on an indoor ``clothesline' ' the Russian way, never overcooked in a can.
Kate, what I love most about you is that not only is your information accurate, but yo are always consistent. There is never any confusion from one video to the next. The only things I don;t have are the canned fish, as I eat a lot of shell fish, the capsules, and the ACV, which I will get. By the way, you are really, really, really, attractive.
However, there are people who are intolerant to mushrooms like me. Unfortunately, little is known and talked about intolerance to mushrooms ans yest in general. In my case if I consume then a few days in a row (like adding them to my salad for example), I would get a very strong headache.
The only ones of those items that I do not use regularly are the liver capsules (but I have liver in the freezer) and canned fish (but I have a variety of wild caught fish in my freezer). If all I ever had was liver the way my mother cooked it, I would never eat it. However, I have learned to cook it in a way that I like. Yes, it does have a unique taste that many may not like. No Problem. Rather than having meats shipped in from wherever, I prefer to get meat from the local processing plant. I realize not everyone has a processor in their area. These are locally grown and processed animals. Thank you, Kait.
Am I throwing away the health benefits of salmon if I totally remove the skin before eating it? I'm new to all this healthy eating...(Recently diagnosed diabetic...) Thank you for your Guidance! Patrick
No. It’s rancid when you buy it due to how it has to be processed to be extracted from the plant. That’s why they strip it of its colour and flavour. It will have trans fat no matter what because of this.
I wouldn't say I'm a fan of the taste of liver but I have learned to tolerate it. It helps if you cook it in something like an omelette. In fact, a cream cheese, avocado, mushroom and liver omelette sounds pretty good.
I don’t eat avocado . & I have portions control issues. So would u please do a show on insulin resistance & portions of fats & protein, like show me some plated foods for a full meal . I’m a large framed woman over 6’ & was 222# now I’m moving up 300#.. I need help . Both my parents died from diabetes,,, HEPL.
Hi Kait, I have found your videos informative as a woman with PCOS I am appreciative this info, keep up the good work. I have been slowly implementing some of your suggested changes in my diet, and have found it challenging and somewhat restrictive, but that is in part because the place I am currently residing does not have a functioning stove at the moment, so I can only cook my food in a microwave at the moment. Maybe you could do a video on preparing these types of food with a microwave, or I see you have what looks like an air fryer. Maybe a video on the tools (choosing an air fryer, I have been curious about them), to cook these crucial food items for insulin resistance and PCOS. I would like to learn cooking with better cleaner unprocessed foods, but have had trouble with the tools to do so, I do not have a lot of money and time, and granted some nights, I am just too tired to cook. I live in an area that is called a "food desert" where some areas of town lack access to good grocery stores with a variety of healthy unprocessed foods. My area mainly has liquor stores, a Dollar store, and a Wal-Mart, so I am limited to what they have, also because the food costs less. These might sound like excuses, but I genuinely would like to apply some of these food ideas, but need some help with that, simple easy to prepare foods that cost less and do not take a lot of time, I cook for others as well, and they are impatient for their meals. Maybe you could videos for those who are in so called food deserts.
So I used to eat about 1 egg per year. So now I'm eating probably two eggs per week. So I do have a spoonful of apple cider vinegar 30 minutes before eating dinner. Now you gave me the tip to have a spoonful of apple cider vinegar before bedtime. So whenever I do a 48-hour fast I break the fast with one scrambled egg. The first time I did a 48-hour fast I broke the fast with a big piece of lasagna. And bread and Coca-Cola That was definitely not the right thing. To do. Felt like I was flying. Without a airplane.
You are looking completely recovered Kait! (And nice tan…As I fade into the white snow up here in the Northern hemisphere! … lol 😉). I just put sauerkraut on my grocery list! Most of the rest I keep on hand. Thanks for the great video!!
I hated liver all my life but always loved liverwurst on crackers. Go figure, so after going ketovore a month ago I decided to try a couple recepies online for liverwurst and bingo, I can eat it. It's not my favorite taste but I've grown to like it. Works for me but not necissarily for everyone.
Great Video, hoping for your continuing good recovery from surgery. You have help so many of us with your health coaching, you deserve a great recovery! I use New Zealand, Grass Fed, Beef Liver Capsules, not your brand, but I am going to switch to your brand. The maker of the liver capsules I use also has a Wild Caught Fish Egg (Hoki from New Zealand) Capsules, do you know of others that make fish egg powder products, the ones I use are OK, but the producer is stubborn about the nutriental facts of their products, doesn't release these facts, so I would like a change for the fish eggs, like I am going to do with the liver capsules.
Good info. Still trying to swallow that Bullet proof coffee will extend your fast. All the research I’ve encountered says different. So I’ll do without.
I didn’t even know beef liver capsules existed! Good to know. Will look in to getting some, and you also reminded me that I very occasionally like chicken liver (mashed with some green onion, celery and a bit of Hellmans REAL mayo (Keto). Thanks Kait.
I can 100% agree that beef liver tastes bad. For me it tastes like death if just cooked from raw. I've found 2 ways I've cooked it that don't bother me at all, and i might just be crazy.. 1) slice thin and season with garlic salt and black pepper.. i tend to dehydrate until the slices are chips and i can eat them quickly. 2) I mix a 1/3 liver to 2/3 beef into my "ground beef mixture" witch can be used for anything you would use regular ground beef for. The chips and the ground work for me, i've also added kidney and liver into my "ground beef" mix and haven't noticed the irony taste of death. hope this helps someone! if not, give me idea's, i want to keep experimenting with my carnivore diet )
I read that men who have been diagnosed with low-grade, non aggressive prostate cancer have an increased risk of it (the cancer) developing into a more lethal form of the disease if they eat eggs. My question is, does the consumption of eggs lead to the development of prostate cancer in the 1st place? I never hear any of the RU-vid doctors or dietitians say anything about eggs and prostate cancer. I was diagnosed with low-grade prostate cancer. Changed my diet. Starting eating the perfect foods (eggs). Guess what?
Girlfriend I see no ring on that finger wink wink. I love eating healthy and would love to cook for you. I never even went to culinary school but I can bake, I can shake, I can cook you name it 😊
What about people who dislike the taste of beef and lamb? Apart from a couple steak cuts (and I don't want steak more than once a month), which other meat is the next best?
How do you eat the canned fish, grilled, roasted? I was watching a video of yours about skin tags and somehow got switched to this and didn't know it. So I guess I'll have to go find that one again. Probably when I paused to get up and stayed away for too long.
You didn’t mention tuna when you talked about canned fish. I hate fish. The smell of cooking fish makes me nauseous. That being said I do like canned tuna. I hope tuna ok. How often do you have to eat canned fish? I am not sure I could eat tuna everyday.
Hello. Can you recommend an intermittent fasting plan for a 69 year old woman and had breast cancer surgery last year, please? I am starting to know about this and would appreciate any advise
I keep hearing that “olive oil” is bad and toxic because it is a “vegetable oil”. There is a big difference between seed oils and olive or extra virgin oil. My understanding is that olive oil is one of the most stable oils to cook and eat. Where are the legit studies that say and explain why is olive oil toxic?
I have vital farms pasture raised eggs, bubbie's sauerkraut, Kerry gold butter, grass fed grass finished ground organic beef, Avocado, apple cider vinegar capsules by Braggs, I usually keep baby Bella mushrooms but I need to buy some, 😋 😉 only thing I don't get and haven't ever had is beef liver capsules
But the worst thing about meat.... is cruelty! I know its not a concern for everyone... but another option if I won't ever eat meat or fish ever again?
That name "ButcherCrowd" is hilarious. I wonder who stole from whom between the three of these Butcher Box, Crowd Cow, and ButcherCrowd.🤣 🤣 I've only had meat from one of them but I imagine they are all great. Although I don't have all of those in my fridge or cabinet all the time I do eat them all except avocado it's a no for me. I prefer kimchi to sauerkraut, but I'll buy sauerkraut if I can't kind kimchi. I like mackerel, but I usually have tinned cod liver also.
Would raw unpasteurised “ with the mother “ apple cider vinegar be better? Also butter from the source which has been organically raised and grass fed?
There is no difference between free range eggs and any of the other eggs.You have to get pasture raised eggs. Free range just means that they have access to a door that goes outside.They're still being fed corn in a barn.
Hi Kait. I've been keto for 2.5 year and have lost over 100 lbs. I'm generally pretty strict and rarely "cheat" - however this weekend we are going to a wine dinner at a fancy restaurant for my Dad's birthday and it is a pre-set menu, so I can't control my food choices. I've never tried ACV before. You think just drinking a tablespoon diluted in water before hand will help minimize the glucose / insulin spike from the meal?
Just starting off drinking ACV can be rough. If you mix a tablespoon of ACV, lemon juice, about 6 ounces of water, and a couple drops of liquid Stevia you will have a nice drink. My 3 year old even likes it. She only got a sip but she wanted to try mine.
