Agreed. Very good message. Some people need to overload on hotdogs and eggs and that's better than waffles and crisps. Well done AGAIN, Dr Berry. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Buying the beef we can afford and no junk food. We will save money compared to the S.A.D. (shitty american diet) When we only buy Beef, Bacon, Butter, Eggs and salt and only eat 1 or 2 meals a day!! Money saved. Where it is expensive is if the house hold is eating the S.A.D. and they eat your meat!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
True, but they're still not cost effective and in this economy, everyone's struggling. Dr. B would rather see you eat WinnDixie's meat from Mexico then eat inflammatory food.
That's all well and good for those who can afford it and have farms within a reasonable distance. Dr. Berry is letting people who can't afford locally-raised grass-fed meats or even have any farms within a reasonable distance that they can improve their health by cutting out all the sugar, carbs, and totally artificial "foods" by eating even the cheapest, low-quality meat, whatever it is that they can afford. People are finding it hard to afford Walmart/local supermarket prices for meats. People who rely on public transportation can't get out to farms even if it was affordable. I can now afford to buy meat at any price but I remember back when I couldn't, and how panicky I felt when I realized $.99/lb on sale ground beef was gone forever and $1.29/lb on sale was the cheapest I could find.
And how would you know the cows themselves are not injected with growth hormones, chemically enhanced or genetically altered via selective breeding? It is the same as free-range chicken. Their diets maybe natural but they themselves may not be. Also if a cow has at least 50% its diet on grass, that count as grass fed in the USA. And how about the grass themselves? Are they sprayed with fertilizers or fertilized via regenerative farming? There is so many questions and very few farms are transparent enough to provide everything.
Dr.Berry I love you for your kindness and honesty it is refreshing, your empathy for people is astounding, you really care about people, and your fight for people is amazing thank you 🙏 so very very much for what you do for humanity, God bless you!!!!!!😊
Sadly - if one is seriously sensitive to grains (seeds in general) what you feed the animal matters. In my case, corn, soy, sunflower and other seeds fed to the beast will impact MY health. I don't like the pain. I REALLY don't like the PAIN, and I've discovered this applies to more than beef. Poultry (and eggs) and pork also have the same impact. I'm carnivore because I'm backed into a corner with this diet. Can't tolerate seeds and seedpods (lectin intolerant) and my gut reacts to fiber in Very Uncomfortable ways. so YES! It does matter what the cow eats. Go for gassfed.
Definitely grass fed & finished without a doubt ..... i think Dr Berry is just telling people to start with what they have and modify as they go on ..... i think he'd rather have people eat what they can afford than consume carbs and refined sugars
I'm so sorry that you have such powerful sensitivities like you described. But you surely realize that you are a pretty extreme outlier in this situation. I certainly doubt Dr. Berry would tell you not to worry about it and any beef will do, but for the vast majority of people they will be much better off purchasing run of the mill meat rather than continue with a SAD diet if the message is you have to only eat the premium stuff or it's not worth even trying.
That’s the everyday price for frozen beef patties at Aldi - easy to cook from frozen. 10 minutes in the air fryer. I do get their grass fed but don’t feel any better or anything. Same.
Born and raised on a cattle ranch here. Grass raised beef is generally "finushed" on grain of some kind, barley is the best. Cheap feedlot beef is fed GMO corn primarily and lots of other garbage and has anti biotics running through it. My father worked in feedlots, he knows. You are what you eat.
The problem is not many people try to participate in ketogenic diet but because purists who keep push down people to eat expensive stuffs are the only deal.
My concern is the omega 3 to 6 ratio with grain fed beef. If you're saying grain fed is the lessor of the evils compared to the Standard American Diet, I agree grain fed is better. I'm still a strong proponent of grass fed finished beef because of the better omega 3 to 6 ratio.
Point made. I’ve learned a lot from Dr. Berry 👍🏼 Now, two serious questions: 1- Is it his lighting or is he this red? 🤔 2- Does this channel answer questions on here or do they just answer to those who pay them? 🤔
Exactly! The carnivore puritist/ not-see's are the vegans of carnivore! I'm working on getting an elderly lady with Parkinsons and a load of other problems to increase meat, and get off bread, and oxalates! She is type 1 diabetic since her 30's, most likely due to her genetic predisposition from her mother, and found her trigger in eating too many plants, and too much bread! She can't afford expensive food. If Aldi has it she will buy it.
I find the cheaper beef to be beneficial as it often contains more fat, cartilage and sinew but then again I’m in the UK where almost all of our beef is grass fed anyway
This is honestly the best take. Yes, grass-fed beef or free-range chicken or eggs will be the best. Blah blah. Health is good but also be responsible with your money. Especially if you are feeding a family. For example, in my country, free-range chicken eggs, a box of 6, cost a whopping $6.50. Meanwhile, a factory farm tray of 30 eggs costs $6.80. 30 vs 6. Yeah, the 6 will be healthier but it will only last me 2 days (I consume 3 on average) and only 1 person. For a lower-income family, it is a no-brainer choice.
It’s a deal breaker for someone who has a consensus. If you want to eat animals who have lived a life of pain and misery inside of a slaughter house, you are heartless
Thank you for this. The last thing anyone needs is a snakeoil salesman saying your health and diet will collapse if you don't buy very expensive food from them. Bottom feeders. 😢
I actually do think there is somebody somewhere that does need to eat 100% grass finished on the Himalayan mountains from March to May. The real question is who is it and how many people are there? Perhaps have one or two of them on to the show as a guest speaker.
1. Eat what you can afford 2. Buy what you have available 3. Broke is the state of your wallet. Poverty is a state of mind. 4. Better poor and healthy than rich and unhealthy
Now what about coffee creamer? Should we get actual creamer with milk? I know for some people, they say the oils and carrageenan upsets their stomach, and I think Im noticing that applies to me.
Thank you! So tired of people trying to shame other people into needing what they can't afford. Eat the best you can afford. Just cutting out the processed food will do you wonders.
Those same people will say they can only afford $4 - $5 processed meat while a roll of frozen 100% beef patties are $4 lb ready to cook. It’s lazy people who are making excuses for eating garbage “meat” that bug me.
@@dennythedavinchi3832 So you would choose eyeballs and ahole meat over the same priced frozen 100% beef patty roll for $4 a lb? Why? Laziness? The fillers and additives are reason enough to avoid most days (what the heck are THEY adding that’s killing us and by us I mean you).
Costco has grass fed beef patties in the freezer section, which are reasonable and very good. If there is an Aldi near you, they have grass fed beef at very reasonable prices also. They also have organic brands of cheese and meats. As I said, just eat as clean as you can. While I can afford higher cuts of meat, many cannot. I just want people to understand that.
Dr Berry changed mine and my mothers lives with his carnivore diet!!!! My mothers 78 and every problem she had from arthritis to blood pressure is gone !!!! She takes no govt pills and we will be carnivore forever❤
Good on you. My mom is 80yo, can barely walk due to bad knees and severe scoliosis, i'm trying to convince her to eat better, but it so hard. Gonna show her your comment.
Tweaking, making better choices, cook simpler, eliminate seed oils, save your bacon grease when you cook bacon on parchment paper in the oven. The fat leftover is beautiful 😍 🥓. Poor it off your sheet pan midway through cooking. Buy the thicker sliced bacon to begin with... 😋 * Add some fried up pork chorizo to your hens eggs scrambled up. Delectable! Only 99 cents a tube at Walmart. Eat sardines in water. Add some olive oil. Great food!! 👍
@nancyarchibald9095 I really like the idea of chorizo in the scrambled eggs. Yum. I'll leave out the olive oil for anyone who wants it, but a big fat yes to bacon grease! That stuff is stellar for cooking anything. You're sure to get you fat.
I wish I had discovered carnivore decades ago. My aunt owned a farm with grass fed cattle and chickens. I could have been getting fresh meat. I am looking for local farms. I live in a rural area so that shouldn’t be difficult. Carnivore has changed my life
We buy ours at 1/2 beef at a time from a local farmer. Mostly grass/pasture raised, with some corn at the end, and no hormones or antibiotics. We pay about $4.50/lb and that's including processing. We just ate 2 fantastic t-bones tonight, with some fat, grilled to perfection, and a loaded salad. Some of the salad mixins were from our garden. Topped the meal off with some cold watermelon. Cost less than 10 bucks a person for a dinner like that. Can't beat it.
There’s a lot of doctors on here who say make sure you’re buying the grass fed grass finished the other stuff is horrible so it’s nice to see a doctor point out that it’s better than the processed junk. To be honest that’s one reason why I didn’t start keto a few years ago (also I was addicted to the junk) but everyone I watched said get the pricy stuff and it wasn’t in my budget. I’m about 20 total carbs a day or less and have lost 60 pounds since November of last year. Still have weight to lose but my labs have improved all over the board. I’m glad I just went with it and didn’t worry about buying meat I cannot afford.
THANKS DR. BERRY!! I'm 72 and sometimes think I have to do better and go to grass fed beef, but I have some debt to pay off before I can try that! Even with the cheapest beef from the grocery store, and mostly ground beef and chuck roast when it's on sale, I have seen AMAZING health benefits from carnivore!! And people say they can't afford to do carnivore, but when you cut out all the processed snacks, dessert, and fast food, I actually spend less on carnivore!! Thanks for helping SO MANY people like me!! God bless you and your family! Love y'all!! ❤🤗🙏🙏
You can up your game by shopping thecoutside of the stores, fresh non-precooked food. Season your own, cook your own, stay away from pop/soda, and chips. Congrats to all loosing and struggling with weight, keep at it, dont get discouraged, just keep at it.
Beef is A tier, regardless of the finish. I’m so glad you made this video. I’ve argued so many times that the differences are meager and it appears to be a marketing ploy to get people to spend more money. My hat goes off to you.
Buying at least some meat from local ranchers helps support the long term sustainability of independent ranchers. The big processers and big box stores underpay ranchers to extract as much profit as possible and it leads to ranchers becoming bankrupt and selling their land. And supporting ranchers that use regenerative agriculture will save our soils so we are not faced with another Dust Bowl. It's understandable if you can't buy all your meat from these sources, but spending a portion of your dollars on it helps to keep this sector alive
Anthony Chaffee once said "Grass-Fed/Grass-finished beef won the gold medal, grain-fed won the silver medal. Grain-fed couldn't beat Grass-fed but it beat everything else, so it's still an excellent option and better than anything else you could name"
I love the pictures you show when you are critisising people who claim to be health experts. Overweight and visibly unhealthy, makes me laugh every time. Keep up the good work 😊
We're lucky here in Ireland, all of our meat; beef and lamb is grass fed due to our mild climate. Our butter and yogurt is all made from milk from grass fed animals.
@@Kube_Dog thanks Kube_Dog... 😊 Like most irish people, I have family in the USA! Chicago, Portland Oregon, Arizona & New York. The USA has been great to the irish.
Grass fed and finished beef is high in omega 3’s and tastes better than Angus to me. Butcher Box delivers 14 Ibs of grass fed finished ground beef to me every 6 weeks price is locked. When I shop I purchase a full brisket, chuck roasts and specials on steaks, stew meat and other goodie’s. Stock up on butter, cream cheese cream, parm and sharp white cheddar, once a month. ❤
I get mine from the same place. It’s the best meat I ever tasted…in decades. I was worried about the cost but it’s very reasonable compared to grocery stores.
@@MichaelRei99 I can't. No Costco where I live. But I'm doing great on what I'm eating. I've been carnivore for three years and my health has improved in every conceivable way. So obviously grain finished is perfectly fine for me, wouldn't you agree?
Seriously Dr Ken. If it’s not organic. Grass fed. They feed it grains gluten and slop. Cmon. And not to mention regular beef has lots of hormones. And antibiotics. Geez man
Aldi's - 85/15 grass fed, grass finished ground beef, $5.99/lb, $4.99/lb when on sale. I've got 15 lbs in the freezer from the last sale. Fresh Thyme - grass fed, grass finished Ribeye steaks $9.99/lb on sale, also wild caught Alaskan Salmon Steaks (approximately 2.3 lb each steak) on sale for $7.99/lb. Of course, I packed the freezer with these as well. Don't have to compromise due to cost, just shop smart, shop in bulk when on sale, buy a Costco deep freezer on sale to store bulk purchases, buy a Harbor Freight inverter generator on sale to protect your freezer contents should power go out for an extended time.
Autoimmune conditions are from chronic inflammation just like T2D, Alzhiemers, Heart disease due to eating an American mixed diet that over-engages the glucose-fatty acid cycle for long periods of time. Grain finished beef should be more than fine.
@@banparlous2552💯 It's not a matter of what's better, it's a matter of what people can afford. Dr B is simply saying if you cannot afford the more expensive, it is okay to eat the more cost-effective meat. He would rather see you eat cheaper meat than inflammatory food.
At a farmer's market two weeks ago I asked the seller if it was grass fed, grain finished and he proceeded to lecture me on why there is very little difference. He said his meat is the best I'll get. And you know what? He's right. The following week I was back to buy more of his delicious beef.
He only said that to fool you into buying his beef. The actual fact is beef isn't really studied so we don't actually know if there is only a small difference. I'm willing to bet there is a difference between metabolically sick beef and athletic beef
Wow! If you know some place I can get grass-fed grass finished beef for 22 bucks a pound. Let me know where that is!!! I'm seeing individual steaks for over 30 bucks nowadays. minimum. Dr. Berry, you mentioned The Omega 3 and 6 ratios. But what about antibiotics and hormones? I am much more concerned about those than I am the omega-6. I don't want to start growing boobs.
