How do night shifters get really good at this style of eating. Circadian rhythm constantly screwed up. I’m trying to get back on the wagon. Last few days I ate at 5 pm and did not eat the 12 hours at work. Fasted a few and did Omad. Any suggestions or tips? Working days the meal is breakfast when I get up , off days it’s supper.
Spend a day off cooking up meals ahead of time. Cook up some ground beef with maybe some shredded cheese or scrambled egg. My son makes up several to store up in the fridge and grabs one to take to work. I’ll cook a steak for dinner, eat half at home and bring the rest to work. Different chicken dishes too. I’m lucky to have a cafeteria at work with a salad bar. I’ll make a carnivore salad. They have hard boiled eggs, pepperoni, cooked chicken, diced ham, shredded bacon, shredded cheese, I’ll put a little cottage cheese and a little ranch dressing on it. So good and cheap too. A full salad by weight used to cost me about $8-10. Now I’ll spending about $3-4 for a carnivore salad. Some jerky for snacks but be careful what is in them. Preservatives, sugar. Can give you bad heart burn. We just went on a cruise and I didn’t think i would be able to eat carnivore. It was absolutely possible. Everything is your choice. I would go to the Guy’s burger joint and get a cheese burger patty no bun. Top it with a little chili ( meat based no beans). So good! I’ll eat bacon and eggs a lot. I’ll cook that up before work. Takes me just 10 min. A few slices of bacon in the air fryer for 10 min. Frying an egg in butter takes 1-2 min. I put a little thick shredded cheddar on the egg. The air fryer has a basket so little to no mess. I’ll pour the greases into a grease catcher so i don’t need to wipe it out each time. I also wipe clean my pan and utensils with a paper towel and just reuse a few days. It’s a time efficient system for me. You can do this. Prepping meals is a must. Intermittent fasting is good also but I would make up and bring a little something in case you get hungry you will remain carnivore.
good job mate, i'm 58 Carnivore for 18wks and have never felt better.. many issues i had have all but gone not to mention weight loss.. big up the meat posse!!
Once again, I just wanna thank you from the bottom of my heart you started me on this path six months ago I started out with 45 years of doing everything wrong. I was the biggest metabolic mess you could imagine every bit of my blood work couldn’t be worse six months later everything’s perfect. God bless you and God bless you some more.
Nothing but respect to Dr. Berry. Thank you for telling the world about the Proper Human Diet. I am now on day 9, down 5 pounds (I finally got below 200 pounds after trying for years), my sugars ran high between 14-16 with medication, now morning fasting 7 and during the day 8. My sugars have never been this low for years and I have tried everything. Before the carnivore diet I was eating tons of salads with no weight loss, and my sugars were high. Just 9 short days...no hunger, no sweet cravings, no sugar spikes and I feel so much better. I have a 100% blocked anterior descending artery 2 years ago and have been struggling ever since to lose weight nothing worked. 9 days just 9 short days JUST WOW...I now have hope that I can get healthy. I was skeptiable at first because it went against everything I knew about losing weight and "dieting". this is beyond AMAZING. Thank you thank you thank you, please keep up the AWESOME WORK!!!!
Wow, I'm in Cape Town South Africa. I've on Carnivore since 26th May...loving the changes. Please let us know when you having another live feed, I'll be there. You have passes on so much great information. So grateful for all who are choosing this path. Your authenticity is refreshing. Just confirming 7pm central time? Mondays. I try watch 2 videos a day to educate myself. Thank you once again.
Thank you Dr, I am 2 months on ketovore diet and I am ready to do a full time carnivore diet anytime soon. I can feel all the benefits of good health in my body eg no sugar cravings, lose weights, no brain fog, feeling sluggish and joint pain.I hope to reverse my BP too and I am also sharing all these good infos with my family members. Wish me good luck. Thank you so much and hello from Singapore.
Quick comment to say to people - make sure you are eating enough fat! I was getting cold and tired. I wasn't losing weight and my blood sugars were creeping up. I was also HUNGRY and it didn't matter how much I ate - 2 hours later I would be hungry. I added carbs back in and felt a bit better, but only after a meal. A few hours later I would feel crap again. I finally tried the high fat/lower protein thing and I feel like I did during my first month going carnivore. I am putting away a ton of fat every day and it took a while to get used to this. So I think it is important for people to spend a few days working out how much food they are eating and what the macros are. I bet tons of people are undereating and not getting enough fat.
I just posted a question that I dont understand if I eat MORE fat....how will my body ever get to my stored fat to use it up ?????. Im TOTALLY CONFUSED.
Needed to hear this today. I’m loving eating a tonne of fats but at the same time I’m losing weight soooo slowly. But i know I need the fats so I’m going to keep going! Thank you
@@lindyhawthorne2164 maybe because when you feed your body fat and it "learns" to use it for fuel, then you extend your fasting window and deprive it of that fuel occasionaly, it finds and burns YOUR fat. Also our experience was that by eating high FAT it helped with cravings and allowed us to go longer without eating, thereby properly regulating insulin (key) and inducing ketosis. Not sure if that's right, but that method allowed us to lose 60-70 pounds of fluid and fat in roughly 8 months and completely change our health life. Now when we have a few (or many) carbs on the RARE occasion our metabolic state quickly and properly deals with it. YMMV.
@@fatillacing4131 thank you. I have been low carb and keto for a number of years so I have been in ketosis for a long time. Just today decided to start carnivore. The extra fat is always a concern to me. Im down to 2mad and OMAD sometimes, so hopefully, as u say my stored fat is being used up then. thanks again.
@@zoeshannon9509 but if you want to lose weight, then your body could use up the stored fat without going heavy on the extra fat. just my opinion....Im still learning...
QUESTION: Hello from Michigan! I just joined your group today and am excited about what I can learn. I am trying to get my 3 grandkids (who live with me) on Carnivore. They are ages 10, 12, and 14, and all have physical, mental, social, and academic challenges to some degree. Do you have a video that speaks directly to young people? Their mother is not exactly on board, so it would help if the kids could be convinced this is good for them (and doable) on their own. Thank you for your time and expertise!
It is so refreshing to hear a doctor speak plainly and honestly to us about our health issues and to call it out when something costly isn't necessary, he doesn't mince words, just sets the record straight. It's also nice to see people from different parts of the world in the chat, makes me happy to know that the US still has something valuable to offer. Dr. Berry is a treasure.
Dr Berry please do a book called “Lies Society Told Me” debunking all the incorrect myths etc regarding health and nutrition. It would be the perfect addition to your current books. Keep changing lives and thanks for all you do.
I struggle with Hashimotos and the horrible symptoms it brings, it is most unpredictable. I would love to see a video on this specific Autoimmune nightmare.
His wife has kept hers in remission for years. Search “dr. Berry hashimotos “ and you’ll find videoshes already done. Also his wife’s videos, search “neishalovesit hashimotos”
Thanks Dr Berry for all you do! I've followed you since May and have lost 50 lbs. Completely of all my previous meds...BP, Crestor, and acid reflux. Thanks again. You have been a life changer to me!
Book - Against the Grain - James C Scott - history of 1st cities forcing farmers to grow grain because its easier to tax - peeps who didn't pay grain tax were outside the law, thus Outlaws, Barbarians, and FREE!!
Videos like this (especially being free) are a blessing in today’s world. It’s funny how one develops a passion for health while overcoming health challenges.
If you wanna make carnivore deviled eggs, instead of using mayo, throw some butter in with the egg yolks and a tiny bit of water. Oddly enough, you won't miss the mayo! It's so good! This is Shawn White's recipe.
I have been Carnivore for 2 years this September 2023 and am also on Ozempic. I have lost 145lbs so far and have only 10lbs to go to reach my goal weight. I am completely off all my HBP meds, no cortisone injections in my hips for arthritis and have lowered my thyroid meds to half of what I used to take. YES!! I am feeling fantastic and will remain on this Carnivore Journey the rest of my life, but Ozempic was a great help and am very happy being on it as well. Well done, Dr. Berry!!
Jury still out on ozempic, not adequate research, lawsuits against fiber. Americans taking it are genuine guinea pigs. It's a sure thing, you will lose significant amounts of weight with this incredible way of eating.
I'd actually love to get a breakdown by political views of those on carnivore. My suspicion is that the number of libertarians would be quite high, and I'd be in that number. I think a distrust of government makes it way easier to see how beneficial carnivore is to the human body. Others, who still trust government completely, would probably have a much harder time being convinced that the government would put out dietary guidelines that are slowly killing them, so they'd avoid ever going carnivore just because of what government "experts" tell them.
I pray I find a physician like you one day, because mine of 22 yrs just doesnt care, just wants to prescribe meds. I enjoy your videos. Upstate NY here.
I'm hoping that my new doctor is learning from me. I told her that I had been to see a low carb doctor who got a fasting insulin test done which had not done been done before. He is concerned that my result was 7 and would like it lower. In Australia the number is
When I was a kid in S. TX close to the coast my brother and I would see who could sit in the car the longest with the windows up. My parents had no idea we were doing this.
Just an FYI from personal experience. Keto 4 years, now carnivore going on 2. Still in menopause (7 years now!!! yuck) but my hot flashes and night sweats came back on carnivore, until I upped my fat percentage. I had to go from a 70/30 to an 80/20 to get them to go away again. Once I am done with menopause I will transition back to a 70/30 most likely, but just wanted to share that for other women in the same situation. Love you Dr Berry and Neisha!
Dr Berry I wished you would do a video on Reverse T3 ... thyroid. I have had this for years and the doctors were clueless 😐. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE FALLIN IN THE CRACKS. I can not take levo, Synthyroid or Armour. I can ONLY TAKE T3 ONLY. I did my own research and found out I had a reverse T3. I had to ask for the test. I also have extreme low cortisol because the doctors would not believe me from all the years of my thyroid not working right. Doctors would not test, so I went and order my own saliva cortisol online.
Dr. Berry, I have to disagree with you on the food sensitivity test. They can have some valuable information and give a good source of direction in one's diet. I had a food sensitivity test done through BIORESONANCE (hair) and it disclosed very accurate information. I also had a test done for Vitamins and Minerals. It does lean toward how much damage has been done to the gut from eating a unhealthy foods. It is recommended to get on a healthy way of eating and to eliminate the foods that are giving symptoms for up to 90 days, then reintroduce them back into the diet. I understand that skin and blood tests could be somewhat inaccurate, but the hair samples don't lie. Thank you for all you do for us and you are my go to Doctor!
QUESTION! Dr Berry what are your thoughts on going carnivore whilst on dialysis? I have iga nephropathy, severe inflammation and scarring of the kidneys from being a sugar addict for 30+ years. I’m having bloods done monthly and weekly FBC to keep an eye on my anemia. Trouble is my phosphates get high on carnivore and it makes me nauseous. Any tips? Thanks
Q .Hello Doc Started carnavore on my own without consulting my regular doc, I’ve watched lots of your videos to set my mind. Even the other vids, Im teetering on 300 lbs.. on several meds im sure you can guess.. b.p., cholesterol, A1C 7.0 my question is should I go straight carnavore or or add in a few of the good 8 vegetable combos you mentioned in another video! Need help!
Hopefully you'll get an answer but the overriding theme I've picked up on is that for simplicity sake beef, butter, bacon and eggs to start (elimination diet) and slowly add back in veg if you just must and see how they affect YOU. I started 1 year ago about where you are sans meds because I refused them, managed to survive, wasn't 100% "clean" (huge holiday and special event eating to my shame) and hover right at 185 now which I never thought would be possible. 1 year ago I thought 220 was my fighting weight, that was a persistent but "easy" 35 pounds ago and still could stand to lose another 10 or so. Give it a try for 90 days you'll probably be glad you did by Thanksgiving. If my lazy butt can do it you probably can to. YMMV.

Just an anecdote on artificial sweeteners. My 12 yo son recently started suffering crippling pain in his ankles. He had started soccer in same period so believed was that, but rest etc did not help. Diet had not changed. But then discovered he drinking a can of pepsi max nearly everyday. Cut that out and three days later he is good. Weeks later he is still good. I get joint pain from eating carbs, and this is only an anecdote, but it is interesting.
@@Chrissy0325 It could indeed be a coincidence. But considering i have developed a sensitivity to carbs and getting swelling of the joints, i thought it could be reasonable to suppose my kids may have inherited some of that? Tested myself thoroughly on that, so it is confirmed. Eliminated all other variables for the kid so it is a reasonable guess. He wants to experiment, not sure if we will do that. Second kid , staying with mother, got hold of prime drinks for a week and developed uti . Could be coincidence also, but some evidence beginning to stack up. Will see.
Shot in the dark here: I'm new to carnivore myself, but have been fascinated by the "lifestyle change" that it can provide for me. But also, I'm trying to convince my wife to jump on the wagon too, as it seems that alot of her health scares could be fixed following along. She had invasive breast cancer (stage 2) which seems to have been removed, but now suffers from non alcoholic fatty liver, (as well as a HOST of other chemo related side effects) and due to her sensitivity to estrogen, is GRAVELY concerned about consuming too much estrogen in the diet, as all her research tends to make her believe that the estrogen in the beef will affect her negatively. I was wondering if there was any research paper/document that would show that it is NOT a concern (or if it IS a concern i'll stop lol), so that I can definitively assure her that it is completely safe to do so? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for all the information Dr Berry, you are a pleasure to watch and learn from.
She should be concerned about eating all the SOY in plant products or any processed food. THAT gives you estrogen dominance. Soy is in everything as a filler. Have her research foods that contribute to estrogen dominance. I have a estrogen dominant body type, lost 80 pounds on keto and OMAD. Steak, bacon, burgers, eggs, some berries and 50 carbs a day.
Lambs liver with a tiny pickling onion just for the taste and loads of bacon fried up. With either coconut aminos (tastes like soy) with tiny amount of chilli paste. OR Nutritional yeast mixed into the juices. Yummo.
I found a good recipe on RU-vid, marinate the liver overnight or a few hours in a creamy/milk liquid to get rid of smell, then sautéed onion, garlic with sV olive oil, get liver cubes our of the milk/cream, add to onion/garlic, then sauté, do not overcook liver, it is like salmon if you cook it too long hardens, at the end add crush walnut and 1/4 cup heavy cream, salt/pepper, heavenly taste,
I appreciate you videos and your honesty about the SAD. Our doctor has told us to stay away from pork because of parasites....even after its cooked. Have you seen any evidence to support this? Thanks!
Cooking kills trichinosis and Dr Berry said in one video it’s not a public health threat due to modern farming. Maybe your doctor is Muslim or Jewish and not a fan of pigs?
Vaping is apparently worse than smoking, latest studies have shown that one vape contains the equivalent nicotine of 400 cigarettes! There is now a severe restriction coming in Australia on the sale of vapes. We have TODDLERS! , primary school and older children addicted to vaping! Also they are saying second-hand vape-vapour inhalation is also dangerous. There have been special editions of the Australian “60 Minutes” TV show recently. So can be found easily enough. Scary stuff.
Q. Nev here, Australia. Hi doc, the stupid stab kills the bifidus gut biome bacteria, according to Dr. Sabine Hazan. What's the best way to restock our carnivore gut biome?
Q - Been doing Keto sprox 3 years. Lost approx 70 lbs. This whole year basically stalled. . Up a pound, down 2, then up again. Level out 3 or 4 days then go again. Not cheating, no idea what the problem is. . Help. .
Dang I always miss this live!! Can you tell me when your independent live and your live with Neisha is? I want to set alarms so I don’t keep missing it for my question!! Today marks day 30 on carnivore and my live is totally changed!! Thank you!!
Blood sugar spikes are normal and no big deal. What you dont want is for the sugar staying up too long. If you are physically active, this is a healthy rythm.
Hello and thank you for saving my life! Q. is it normal for ketone sticks ( pee sticks) to not work anymore after being on carnivore for a bit? I’m from Poulsbo WA
Hello. From what I understand after doing diet long time body gets better at using ketones and thus you don’t have extra unused ones spilling over into urine so no longer shows up on pee sticks. May need another way to measure ketones IF you want to…many people don’t measure them and just go by how feel etc. Hope this helps. geeky granny!
Can you please talk about carnivore diet and histamine intolerance also if this diet help with mast cell which has affected to my neurogenical system,thanks
Plan created by Dr Berry where you eat only beef ( or any ruminant animal) butter, bacon ( or any fatty pork) and any type eggs. Eat till comfortably full and don’t eat until hungry again. I believe this is basic info. Hope helps! geeky granny!!
Hi! I began on 7/1/23..so day 5 today. No 💩 on day 4 and today. I feel good and two levels away from the darkest level on the ketosis strips. I just want to know if you noticed your body smells changing.
Yes, you will have a change in body odor in ketosis, good sign you’re in ketosis. Normal reaction. It has somewhat a fruity odor and breath is kind of bad, again normal.
There r us in Hospital/Nursing Home, wth a normal A1C R treating us wth Insulin, wth a Physiogic high blood Sugar! We know Physilogic/Pathologic,Food& Drug treatment doesn't know this😢
QUESTION: I'm in my second month of carnivore. I was attempting to wean off my PPI but after today I'm accepting defeat! Sick!sick!sick! I'm concerned I'm eating way to little to lose weight. I'm also concerned the gerd meds are messing with my goals. Help!
The PPIs are some of the worst things you can be on, since it will keep you from absorbing nutrients and you need acid to break down your foods. I was on them for many years unfortunately and it caused several nutrient deficiencies. Betaine HCL and digestive enzymes have been helping me through my recovery.
QUESTION; today my doctor tells me there is no such thing as a fasting insulin test as I requested. She said she is testing C peptide and a GAD test. Is GAD same as fasting insulin test? What is the code for a fasting insulin test? She is claiming I maybe heading for 1.5 diabetes. This is so frustrating. Any thoughts? My A1C is stuck at 5.9 twice now despite 6 months carnivore.
DR BERRY!!!! IM HAVING TROUBLE WITH FASTING. ITS CAUSING MY BLOOD SUGAR TO RISE. MORNING AND DURING DAY. IVE TRIED 21HRS OR MORE AND IT WANTS TO HANG ON. IF AND IF I EAT IT MEAT OR EGGS TO BREAK FAST IT DROPS I FEEL KETONES SHOULD BE TAKING OVER. 🤷🏻♀️
