Keto has completely saved my life. Even if I don’t lose another pound, I will NEVER go back to eating the garbage the SAD recommends. I feel way too fantastic to go back. 50+ pounds down in 3 months, and still going!! Keto on, my friends!!
And Keto nicely compliments Dr. Robert Lustig's war on fructose, which he claims to have proven is the cause of the diabetes epidemic that's savaging America.
2 1/2 yrs ago, I started Keto, thinking it was going to get to be too expensive to continue long term. Before long, my family saw what I was eating, and wanted that too. (Oh Man, I thought, this is gonna kill us financially). No. It solved several long term problems for us (diabetes, a heart attack, obesity, hyperactivity, and mental health problems). Still expensive...no. Serving meat and low carb vegetables is not expensive at all. What was draining our wallet was the cokes, the potato chips, the cookies and cakes, and they were making us sick. The addition of almond flour, and coconut flours weren't a good choice, and we stopped trying to adapt Keto to our former lifestyle. I believe that in itself was a marker where I stopped losing weight...I was trying to adapt Keto and trying to eat as I was before. BIG mistake. No, leave the breads, the deserts behind. Still hungry, have another bite of meat. Don't eat when you're bored. Go do something, get busy. I count myself lucky to have found Dr. Berry's channel. Thank you.
Completely on point. Eat real food as nature packaged it. I think the downfalls of many “Ketoers” are they eat way too much processed food. Even though low carb and sugar free they don’t realise some of these are full of additives and “natural flavourings” where there is nothing natural at all about it.
1. Nutrient density: Eating should be about harvesting nutrients that the body cannot produce. Calories (energy) are secondary to nutrients (parts for the machinery [the body]). 2. Carbohydrate intake: Unlike protein (amino acids) and lipids (fatty acids), there are no carbohydrates essential for human life that the body does not produce. Therefore, modulate carbohydrate intake based on how your body responds to them (i.e., if you experience inflammation or other health problems, try reducing your carbohydrate intake). 3. Food sensitivity: Some foods (especially plants) contain chemicals (e.g., phytotoxins) that can induce inflammation and autoimmune conditions. First identify your sensitivities via methodical trial and error, then avoid them! 4. Satiety: Nutrient-dense fats and proteins induce the body to secrete the hormones responsible for the sensation of "being full". 5. Fasting: "Not eating" induces a hormonal profile that facilitates the body using its stored fat as fuel. This applies to both intermittent fasting and prolonged fasting. 6. Ancestral appropriateness: Eat mostly foods that humans have eaten for millions of years, such as fatty meats, organ meats, and some plants. Be cautious of foods that humans have eaten for only thousands of years, such as grains, dairy, and alcohol. Avoid foods that humans have only eaten for tens to hundreds of years, such as vegetable/seed oils and highly-processed foods. 7. Avoid factory products: While many processed foods ("food products") are considered safe, there is no long-term data to support this conclusion, and the consumption of such foods coincides with the obesity epidemic. Instead strive to eat one/minimal-ingredient foods. NB: flour (even almond flour) is a processed food. 8. Adequate minerals: Humans cannot synthesize minerals and food raised/grown in nutrient-depleted soil may lack minerals, so take a mineral supplement to ensure adequate intake. 9. Avoid fad diets: The ketogenic diet may seem like a fad but it is actually well-documented in cultures around the world over the course of history. In contrast, modern dietary recommendations have only existed for a few decades and are largely influenced by politics and lobbying. 10. Sugar addiction: Carbohydrates are habit-forming, and the more processed the carbohydrate the more addictive. Like caffeine, sugar is a drug. "Sugar cravings" are actually sugar withdrawal! 11. Price vs quality: High-quality products are more expensive than low-quality products. Buy high-quality foods when you can afford them, but recognize that even a "low-quality proper diet" is typically healthier than a non-proper diet.
You are the ONLY ONE that addresses the price issue for low income households!!! Thank you for considering the health of those who are less fortunate financially! 💕
You must mean lower middle class households unless you’re outside the U.S , in America the low income households get fed very well I know because I wait in the line behind them at the grocery store with there 2 buggies slam full 😂
@@longshotdiedtired1582 You seem to be confused. Low income households obviously do not get fed very well in US. Obesity is in most cases not result of overeating high quality expensive food but the exact opposite. Look at list of countries with high obesity rates, you will see that the poorest countries top that list. Poor people end up overeating garbage like pasta, rice, bread, pork meat etc. That's what makes them obese. And US is one of those. On average US per capita income might be very high, but US also has both the richest AND the poorest people on earth. So advice on low income people to how to get high quality food for cheaper is a great advice. FYI: Many poor families typically buy food in mass. Check the content of those "buggies". Are they full of pasta, rice, bread, flour, potatoes, onions and then random cheap snacks like chocolate bars, chips, froot loops etc. Or are they full of tenderloin/entrecote from beef, lamb chops, organic fruits & veggies?
@@cutime6712 Well they probably won't be starving to death in the US, as they might be in some places in Africa. But poverty is a complicated problem. For example, some poor people in Africa might have a shoddy little house to protect them from the elements but no food and so they might starve to death, whereas some homeless person in the US might not starve because (unhealthy) food is easily available and cheap, but they might freeze to death in the winter because they can't afford a home
I went cold turkey after many years of drinking getting hammered everyday n night. I literally felt that I was gonna go crazy or was starting to go crazy, when I dropped to 10 carbs a day from superhigh american standard diet, I did feel the withdrawals aswell, but then one day. It was all gone. Just like that. Then I realized, that Sugar is ONE HELL OF A DRUG.
@Charles Bronson It most likely was the alcohol in the booze and not the sugar. You were probably blacking out 5-6 times a week. Did you ever hit any pedestrians when you were driving under the influence?
Yep, you save money NOT buying all the packaged stuff plus the cabinet full of supplements needed to make up for veggie "nutrition". And you quit buying those little things that add up like Frapuchinos and Jamba Juice smoothies. Also I find I don't waste food hardly at all anymore. Veggies are always going bad in the fridge before you can et them. Eating once a day frees up a lot of time and energy. Lots less prep and washing up too.
Robin Beers agreed. Because it's so difficult to find quick options for healthy foods, I'll cook a whole package of Costco meat and eat it for a couple days. Never have to worry about having food on hand, cook once per 3 days instead of 3x per day, and nothing gets tossed/wasted.
Totally true, before this diet, I had to have a cheat meal once a day (restaurants). That's easily additional 200~300 bucks a month in addition to SAD grocery expenses..... Now, a Traeger grill, a freezer and meat Done..
Lily Carnivore right? You save SO much money that your budget opens up to stuff like New Zealand's grassfed meat (best in the world without question) and any wild caught ocean creature you ever desired. I do miss sushi, but not more than the 10iq points I feel like I've gained.
After having spent 10 years as a nurse at Mayo Clinic Hospital in Phoenix I feel that I have good intuition about what is BS and what makes sense from a medical perspective. I feel that you Dr. Berry are providing excellent information about what it takes to maintain a healthy body. My eyes were opened with your videos on salt intake and bacon to name a few. I respect the info you provide and will continue to watch your videos. Thanks for all you do!
I was almost vegetarian, diagnosed with prediabetes! Doc pushes me with drugs but I refused and reversed with a low-carb, high-fat high-protein diet. Not only reversed prediabetes but rosacea, joint pain has gone too! Thank you Dr.Ken Berry for your tremendous works on super educational podcasts! 💯❤️
I was mostly plant based for 4 years, BP went up slowly and my blood sugars became prediabetic...hmmmm did low carb for 3 months and poof, hypertension gone. I'm sure my A1C is lower too. This guy is a life saver. Love his podcasts too.
I am 56, regular meat eater and I don't remember the last time I got any ailments while everybody around me coughing puffing and winning about some illness. I am grateful to teachers/doctors like Ken.
Back in February my doc told me I had an A1C of 6.31--pre-diabetic nearly to full diabetes. He asked me if I'd like some drugs for that and suggested metformin. I'd heard bad things about metformin so I told him no and decided to start doing some research. I knew all too well how bad diabetes is. The more I learned the more I cut out carbs and eventually started on 16/8 fasting as of a couple months ago and keto as well. I've lost 45 pounds and reduced my A1C to 5.4 as of last month. My doc had suggested reducing my worst weakness carb and never mentioned intermittent fasting. Take control of your own health and NEVER ASSUME YOUR DOCTOR WILL TELL YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW. My thanks to people like Dr. Berry and Dr. Fung.
When I was in 5th grade in 1968, we had a class on what life would be like in the future (now!). I clearly remember the lesson on foods. We were told that the family farms would take a back seat to factory farming (to meet the demands of a rapidly growing population), and the majority of food would be lacking proper nutrients because the soils would be overworked and deplete of nutrients. The factory foods would also be loaded with chemicals and other ingredients that would be bad for the human body. This would cause many health problems. We were told that poor foods would be marketed heavily and pushed on us. Certain vegetables that were easy and quick to grow, would be pushed as being good for us but were actually lacking in nutrients. Dr. Berry nailed it!
Started the carnivore diet 3 months ago. Lost 37 pounds since and the results are amazing. I’m 40 and I think I look better than when I was in my 20s. I went from 225lbs to 188lbs. My goal is to get shredded and I’m definitely cutting up.
Organ meat is usually quite inexpensive due to its general lack of popularity. Mixing it with hamburger, even the 70/30 can go a long way to improving the nutrient density of your meals.
Today, I saw my optemetrist who hasn't seen me in a year....when she opened the door for me she asked: "Where is the rest of you?" She noticed right away my weight loss and my journey on low carb/carnivore/keto....and intermittent fasting...and was like You look and sound fabulous..energy...attitude!!
I watch every video you make. I've gone through Keto to carnivore and lost 4 stone or 56 lb. I've never felt so healthy and I'm 66 years old. This video is one of your best ever doc, thank you for all you do.
Thank you Dr Berry, 5months ago (May 10, 2020)I was severely obese 270lbs 5'5 height and diagnosed with Hypertension (160/100) and started taking maintenance (Losartan)I got depressed. I searched and found dr ekberg and your videos about keto and intermittent fasting. Now Im proud to say that my Cardio already stopped my maintenance med, and I already lost 101lbs (169lbs), i can now jog 30mins to 1hour without feeling of passing out, no more joint pains. Thank you!
Good for you, now live it up, eat pizza, steak, what ever you want. Stay at 2500 calories and you can eat anything you want. At 2500 calories then you stop till tomorrow. Live it up and give up nothing, just don't get out of control.
I can't imagine what shape I'd be in emotionally if not on keto (1.5 years). I discovered some really secret family abuse upon the passing of my sister... It's been 3 months now, and I'm just beginning to calm down.... Love this diet, and it's loving me.
Just under 4 months and 40 lbs lighter doing ketovore!! 60 yro. Type 2 diabetic. I have stopped statin drug and insulin injections and feel better. I expect a very surprised doctor when I see him in January!! Thanks so much Dr Berry for sharing the truth!
I wish I could find a doctor in my area that practices like Dr. Berry. While I know I am doing the right diet it’s hard to hear it from the practitioner that recommends a plant based diet and asks me if I am worried about “colon cancer”. I just roll my eyes and say “no”. I walk out and am grateful for the knowledge this community has given me! ❤
Financial situation has improved! I don't or won't have to spend a red cent on pills, insulin injections, invasive surgery, or co-pays. Love listening to these lifesaving and bank account saving tips. Thank you Dr. Berry.
Keto still didnt help with joint pain and stiffness. Only eat meats, fish, eggs, winter squash, lettuces and apples. Following low oxalate diet. No more joint pain/stiffness. I feel better than I have in YEARS!
Absolutely. Plants do have high Oxalates and can cause stiffness and joint pain in your body. Great remark. Corn causes lots of inflammation and I can’t get people to understand this and they are putting corn products in so much foods. Even tomato sauce. So you have to read all ingredients on labels. God bless.
That sounds like Dr Paul Saladino diet i follow his advice and my health has improved. Keto is good but not for everybody. Specially if you train hard you need extra carbs from seasonal fruits, raw milk and honey.
As a Primary Healthcare Doctor who's passionate about preventing disease and promoting health, I really enjoyed the concepts in this video. Ancestral Appropriateness was exquisitely presented👌🏾
Actually, you DO need *some* carbohydrates for your brain to function properly... they don't have to be simple carbs / can be complex carbs, but you do need some.
@@LaydeeLia that’s been disproven so many times. Look at Kelly Hogan. She had her 11 year carnivore anniversary yesterday. Look at Dr. Sean Baker. Look at the Inuit tribe way up north. Who had months and months of eating meat and fat with no carbs available. One thing you may need to learn about is gluconeogenesis
@@LaydeeLia "some" glucose will be made by your body. You literally do not need to consume ANY carbs ALL your life. Think about this the next time you walk the isles of your grocery store. Imagine what the shelves would look like without the carbs.
I started Keto about a year ago and lost 60lbs. I started carnivore for almost a month and have lost even more weight and feel great. Thanks Ken for challenging this modern idea of health and doing what you do. You are literally changing lives and saving the world!!
@@rb3662 I have 8 - 12 eggs a day. Have as many as you wish. As long as you are on a carnivore/keto diet, eggs and fat will do you no harm. They are one of the highest nutrient dense foods for humans.
I'm 63 and stand 6' 2", on week six of my Carnivore Diet. I lost 2 stone and 4½ inches off my waist in the first 4 weeks. I feel far fitter, healthier and sharper since starting my diet.
Or you can buy a bunch of veggies and also spend a bunch of money on supplements to try to make up for their nutrient scarcity and anti-nutrients. I would rather buy a steak.
It was so important to me to recognize that there was an addiction and that it had become disordered eating. When it was named, I was able to fight it. Thanks for your work!!
M. Reza a dozen cage free pasture organic eggs costs less than a #1 at McDonalds and will sustain you, by themselves, for a couple days. That's nutritional density and cost savings for you.
Hi Dr B, Thanks for all your enlightenment. I have been following the Keto/Carnivore diet for 13 months now. Dropped 30lbs, no more brain fog, though my wife may disagree, and all the joint inflamation is gone. And for those who are sugar & carb junkies....the addiction is REAL!
I’ve tried both. I love the way carnivore makes me feel but I desire so much more variety of foods. Keto seems to be more ideal for my palate and helps keep my blood pressure maintained which is why I do this.
I eat a balanced diet, veggies and fruits, meats and eggs and whole grains. I stay away from junk foods and added sugar. I do allow myself once or twice a month to eat a bit unhealthy. But overall I’m in good shape and I have no health problems whatsoever. I believe this is the proper human diet
Keto is my go to but carnivore gets me over the humps. My journey has decreased medicines to almost nothing and down 75 pounds over the past year. Thank you Dr. Berry for all the help!
Good morning Dr. Berry. I’m learning so much about my body from you. Thank you soooo much for giving thousands of people the truth about what our bodies need. I love you and Neisha so much! Your amazing human beings. Gods blessings on your channel and your practice!🙏🏼
A healthy diet can protect the human body against certain types of diseases, in particular noncommunicable diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, some types of cancer and skeletal conditions. Healthy diets can also contribute to an adequate body weight👍
Monday I finished a 48 hour fast an it felt great. My Ketones were at 1.5 and blood sugar was 103. Just been on this journey since Aug 6, 36 lbs down. My normal is 24 hour fast. Thank you for providing this information. I don't think I'll ever go back.
Keto saved my life too and my lab work and calcium score prove it . Been 3.5 years now and I feel great. I let go of the dr I used to have that wouldn’t work with me to reverse type 2 diabetes and found a great dr that is a low carb expert and is a direct pay dr . Which means I get lots of lab work that he goes over with me. He is amazed at my health journey. Thank you dr Berry
For me it was absolutely a weening process from carbs. A few months ago, if the best I could do was carnivore and quest bars/cookies, that’s what I did, until I didn’t need them anymore. It’s a journey! Thank you dr Berry!
Watching these videos keeps me on the straight and narrow, been keto for 5 months and feel better than I ever have before, don't think I'll ever go back. Trying to get my husband and kids on board but its so hard when there are so many easy quick, addictive, influences all around them! Its hard work being a working mum and cooking everything your family eats from scratch! These videos are a reminder of why I am putting the work in! Thank you.
There is so much education that is needed when you go Keto. It's a lifestyle change in eating habits. I appreciate Dr. Ken Berry's RU-vid series so very much. Keto should actually be called the "Life long proper eating program". It's awesome and so is Ken Berry MD !!
You’re right. It amazes me how many people don’t understand what is meant when I used the phrase “processed food.” Most people don’t understand that it’s not about calories as much as it is about inflammation and insulin response.
I think that's why starting with carnivore instead of keto is a good option. Carnivore is the easiest healthy diet you can do, and then while you are carnivore and getting healthier, you can learn about low carb in general. But if you wait to understand keto before starting it, you're wasting time.
Dear Dr Berry, I could never thank you enough for all your wonderful videos. I had already understood that I needed drastically to reduce carbs towards the end of last year but finally watching one of your videos at the end of January this year, I understeed at last that it was actually possible to reverse my Type 2 diabetes. I have not looked back since, with my a1c down to 5.5 (and counting). I have of course watched many, many videos on the subject but for me you will always be the first on my list of lchf friends. To all of you I have deep respect, admiration and gratitude, not only for showing me how to reverse my t2d but also for the millions of lives you are currently saving, worldwide. Keep up the good work, Andrew
I just turned 50 and just passed the 2 month mark eating carnivore. I did it to see if there was anything to the testimonials that it helped your mental health. It absolutely does for me. I have always struggled with depression and anxiety, and anger issues. I have rapidly lost 34 pounds as a side effect, and that big ass gorilla is no longer on my back! Was it easy? Hell no, the first 2 to 3 weeks were tough! But let me tell you, when you finally wake up and your thoughts are clear and you don't wake up agitated, and that black cloud of despair is gone. Take my word for it....also, DO NOT CHEAT! If you were strict like I was and totally clean and try and sneak a meal or a cup of coffee, wow what a mistake! Your body tells you what's up, that is certain! Good luck everyone. I encourage you to try it for 30 days and see how you feel!
Dr Berry! I love you for helping me. Millions feel as I do too! Carnivore doctors are so wonderful to have shared their vast amount of knowledge with their fellow brothers & sisters! THANK YOU & NEISHA SO MUCH ❤❤❤❤❤
All of this is consistent with everything experts and researchers express about the proper human diet. I had to go through many years constantly researching to understand all these concepts and put everything together to know what is really going on, and here it is all laid out for us. It's more than worth taking your advice because you're 100% correct! It's great to see a traditional medicine doctor break that toxic cycle and really help people. Thank you! :)
Kind of a hybrid. About 85% carnivore: meat, fish, eggs, butter, whole fat dairy, animal fat. I do periodically crave veggies, especially salads, salsa, and a little fruit. These have become supplements. My Achilles heel is peanut butter. I'll have a dollop with some regular butter every day. What can I say? I'm human and have my weaknesses. Almost two years on the keto/IF with spectacular results. Steady as she goes.
I'm dealing with these issues now. I never really realized just how much I not only eat the wrong things but that I over eat so much. I suspect if I ever really got to eating right the cost would be lower than what I've been spending. Thanks Doc
I think this is the best video you've ever made. Perfectly succinct introduction for the layman. You've finally given us the perfect, non-insulting frank discussion about health that everyone in the world needs to hear. God bless you Sir, God Bless You!
"Cooking and Eating Forest Meals with the Hadza".....suggest watching this and other videos from this tribe. In watching several of these, it becomes apparent that real hunter gatherers expend huge amounts of energy in aquiring their meals. So must up the effort other than flipping a spatula. ; ) These tribesman literally hunt most of the day, lots of walking, running, stalking, crouching, lifting, carrying and more.
I love that you labeled this 11 concepts. Concepts themselves are unique to humans and the way we are able to think. This is one of my favorite videos that you posted. Keep up the great work!
I am soooo thankful I found Dr. Berry. I wish I had known these things forty years, things could have turned out much better. I've lost 50 pounds since March and exercise like a young man again. I still crave the pastries but maybe that will go away someday.
Thanks Ken for being brave enough to speak out and hold these corporate giants and conglomorates to account on their motives. And I am so pleased to have found you on line as you have sound food ethics and have clarified many things for me.
I saw a food truck coming home and grabbed a couple Burgers to go last night. At first I told him put the bun on the side but then I'm like nah it's fine I'll have the bun this time. Brain fog, nausea, sweaty and shaky this morning. Wheat is a drug i am addicted to, not food.
This video is one of your absolute best, Dr. Berry! A must have must share keeper! Thank you for all that you do for the keto/carnivore community and educating us with common sense and science. 👏🏼❤️
Omad ( one meal a day) eaten within a 1 hour eating window was pretty easy for me when keeping that one meal keto. Very little hunger at all. Hardest part was the social aspects and the habit of eating often
Wow, that is so true and a very good point. Not eating so often has been easy for me but you are right about all the relationships and social complications!
I am a 66 year old women who had high cholesterol and sugar diabetes. I was 50 lbs over weight so i went on the keto diet along with IF and lost 40 pounds. I also lost my high cholesterol and sugar diabetes.I still thought i could feel better. I have been following you for years and did not know that you had gone carnivore. I decided to go carnivore and have been on it for about 2 weeks. I am already feeling the results. I have less pain when i wake up in the morning. my brain seems clearer. I went to the gym today and my workout seemed easier. You said it was good for autoimmune diseases. I have 2, hay fever type allergies all year round, and i have scalp psoriasis, so I though i would try carnivore.
To be honest, and i dont usually comment on such videos.... Carnivore diet increased my strength in the gym, now i can bench 90kgs, and my body weight has dropped 10 kgs in 3 months, i get more and longer hard ons.... I feel more self confident as if im becoming an alpha male... I link that to the increase of testosterone... Thank u
I fully agree to the addictive aspects of carb rich food and sweets. My name is Arie, and I am a carb addict. I was on a mission to do a 100 day carb free One Meal A Day intermittend fasting tour. I fell off the wagon after 77 days. I ate 10 stroopwafels (it's a Dutch cookie like a waffle with syrup in it). My bloodsugar rose from 5.6 to 6.7 (European scale). Today it dropped to 6.4, but it should be below 6.1. No withwrawl signs, I'm happy to say. I hope I can pick up weightloss again. Lost 9 kg so far. I know what to do, I am highly motivated, but somehow I still fell off the wagon, my addiction got the better of me.....
All your videos are a great source of quality information but this one, Dr. Berry is so spot on. These concepts need to be turned into a poster as a constant reminder. Thank you so much for your work and inspiration!
I agree , eat what nature designed us to eat , also here in uk foods that we eat here are diff to foods in say in alaska , at 47yrs old now , chronically ill , weight gain ontop led me to type 2 diabetes , i instantly threw out sugar , carbs , processed , only drinking water , 3wks in still feeling bit rough , but i am not that hungary anymore , i do not crave carbs or sugar , totally shocked by this and i am hoping to reverse type 2 diabetes . Now i am teaching my grown up children about foods . 🙂
Hey Doc im eric from the Philippines I've been trying keto for almost 2 months and it's working really good for me..and i think it will sustain me good.. just wanted to say I BELIEVE YOU.
KenDBerryMD you are my saviour. I am now 69 and I have learnt so much knowledge from you which I did not even know existed. A few weeks into my new diet of meat, sardines, mackerel, eggs, blue cheese, butter, avocado, fermented cabbage, broccoli and kale plus 2 litres of water a day. That's it. No other food whatsoever. I feel absolutely amazing. My friends and family say I look great.
I have been eating the ketogenic way for over 4 years. It is a lifestyle for me. I lost 50 pounds, reversed T2D and fatty liver. No more periodontal disease or sugar cravings. I do IF as well have the best sleep and mental clarity.
Sugar addiction has been gradually accepted lately, a big problem in Japan I see is Rice-addiction. Rice eaters thinks they would die if they give up rice.
I was raised in Hawaii and rice is considered essential. Sadly, I also had a hard time giving up this item. I haven't had rice since 2017. I am fine. 😊🍚🍙
I'm not keto i consume some carbs but in moderation just like Paul Saladino diet. I had labwork done. TCholesterol: 210, HDL: 60, LDL: 130, A1C: 5.3, Triglyceides: 93, Glucose fasting 84. I go to the gym 4x per week and 2 times per week i go to outside and walk 11,000 steps. I found the best for me some seasonal organic fruits like berries, papaya, mango and sometines a little bit of beans from my country Nicaragua, raw cow milk and goat, keffir, raw honey, avocados, and mostly animal proteins like liver, red meat and turkey. I feel great
Ketovore/Omad fasting help me loose from 218 down to 183 in just 2 months. It's not even a diet, all i did was cut out "American diet", and get healthier without any effort by enjoy the ketovore/Omad fasting. Thank you dr. Berry, thank you dr. Berg, thank you dr. Fung. All your videos save my life,becouse i almost die from thyroid meds that my dr.use to priscribed me back in july 2022. That's when i start taking care of my own health. And not get poison with those toxic meds anymore. I don't take meds anymore. Thank you again,and again for your videos. God bless you and your families.😀😀😀😀😀👌👌👌👌👌
Thank you so much for sorting all of this out. I've been into holistic health for many years helping others increase better health. But this information supersedes thousands of my research hours to help them. WOW! I already knew a lot of what you shared, but I believe the info on 'grains' are an eye opener. Prior to listening to this video, I believed that eating organic whole sprouted grains were the best for extracting nutrients and easier to digest. However, now I see all grains in whatever form as a huge reason people have so many health issues, as they are in so many foods.
Definitely one of the best videos I have seen. I forwarded this to several people including a friend who is a vegetarian! I hope she gets something from it. Thanks for all you and Neisha do.😍
Thank you Ken! I just found you today. Such wonderful information. I like you style in your presentation. I just started keto 6 weeks a ago. It was a stretch because I was headed toward vegan diet. I realized that I had been protein deficient and fat deficient. Minerals and phytos were good, but the carbs and sugar create so much inflammation and I was addicted. I had 3 weeks of fatigue and not feeling well. It was freaky. The fatigue was intense. But I knew I was on the right track Once I can balance this insulin resistance, I want to get to more meatless options. I dont see that happening for a while. We humans have been DUPED! Thanks for your great info, and congratulations to you and you and your wife, on your new little One!
Liver once a week, ribeye, dry Meat, nuts, heavy cream, low carb pizza and drinking ketones daily and reboot monthly. Best health I have ever had and I always eat very health
Thank you Dr Berry another great and informative video. I started following you in 2017. Your advice has changed my life forever. I am down 60 lb and in the best shape I've been in the last 40 years and I am 60 years old. I have read your book also and loved it. Please keep up the good work
the Best advice I have heard. If you can't afford to eat with the best meat buy what you can. Many times I have only been able to afford conventional meat and have felt terrible because many other health blogs will say to avoid it at all costs and only buy grassfed. I definitely agree that grassfed is better but sometimes it's just not in the budget for many and I don't think people should be put down for buying what they can afford. I definitely think longterm working towards buying Natural products and grassfed is key but do what you have to and don't feel bad. Also join a local farmers co-op if you can. I have gotten grassfed meat for $5 and grassfed cheese for $6 a pound. Nowadays conventional beef is only really a dollar difference so this is actually a pretty good deal. just see what farmers you have in the area. you may be surprised at what kind of deals you may find.
I use various seed oils in my painting ... linseed (flaxseed), safflower, walnut ... all have been used by artists/artisans to create tough, plastic-like films with pigments that last for centuries. The fact that seed oils all polymerize into a plastic and rock like substance, by simple interaction with oxygen should tell us it should not be eaten as food!
For foods, I prefer: barbecued ribs with LOTS of sauce, chili dogs, spaghetti with meatballs, ravioli, hot Italian sausage, cheeseburgers, roast beef, fried chicken (I'm not black), burritos, Dinty Moore Beef Stew, beef and chicken pot pies, to name some of my main foods. For beverages: A lot of apple cider, chocolate milk, strawberry milk, Dr. Pepper, Mug Rootbeer, Coke and Orange Juice. I am open to all feedback. Thank you
I'm trying to unteach my kids everything I grew up knowing as FACT. It's a slow and long process but I pray they will eventually hear me because their health hangs in the balance and will continue as they leave and start their own families.
I am going thru withdrawal now because I went on Vacay and ate out all week. It’s miserable and it wasn’t worth it. I have felt bloated, low energy, tired, sick to my stomach, my joints ache, and my skin broke out. I am back to Ketovore.!
Oh dear, those frikkin nut flours. That's why I've gained and my knee is killing me again. Wow that's it back on strict carnivore I go. Like I said before. Thank God for you Dr 🇨🇦✌🙏🙏🙏
I have a listen to, read, thousands of papers on the subject. This video is fabulous. It puts it all into small package. I plan on sharing this, everywhere I can. Dr. Barry I applaud you!
As a recently diagnosed pre-diabetic, i stopped in my tracks and immediately cut all sugar and carbs that were killing me - physically and mentally. I must profess, at 62, that probably starting in my teens I have pondered the question of whether or not there is a nearly perfect diet that humans should follow or that would give utmost benefits . I still wondered often the question over the years at times. Now I am certain that professed foods and sugar and eating junk is the wrong direction. If nothing else I understand what is the WRONG things to ingest. I can go back years ago to the time I followed the “Atkins Diet”,which is very close to the tenets of Keto, and I lost weight very well and ate things I loved (proteins) . The problem was that I developed some slight headaches until I added some much needed vitamins. And afterI stopped and went back to previous eating patterns the weight came back almost immediately. It is now more than a diet kick for me at this point, the basic sense the Dr. makes are basic and simple and make the difference (for me) between becoming saddled to a blood sugar testing and insulin injecting outcome I do not want to have the rest of my life.
Hey Bones, i’ve been on the keto diet for a ride around six or seven months and it has made a world of difference. I’ve seen a lot of your videos in that amount of time but I do believe this is about the best one you’ve ever done. Thanks for all your knowledge, it is definitely appreciated here in Texas
I’m tracking my carnivore diet total expenditure since starting 23rd September 2020. I’m eating a little bit of fish, eggs, cheese, bacon, pork, lamb, ground beef and cheaper cuts of beef like chuck. Quality beef is prohibitively expensive in Australia, so I might move on to that in time, as Dr Berry suggests. I’m also eating some mostly carnivore-friendly pepperoni when needed for a snack. My average expenditure has changed very little, and currently stands at $11.00 (AUD) per kilo. I’m eating approximately 1.25 kg per day, which equates to $13.75 per day or $96.25 per week. On the standard high-carbohydrate junk Australian diet I was probably spending upwards of $150.00 per week. Saving money on carnivore. 54 years old, 178 cm tall. Well overweight at about 98 kg before starting. Already down to 92.5 kg without changing anything (yet) except diet. Everything I’m being told by Dr Berry and the other main carnivore/keto proponents regarding the carnivore diet is proving to be 100% true. For example, no more gut/digestive/GERD issues - for one. Sugar addiction - 100% true. Etc., etc.
I haven't eaten much sugar, wheat for years. But I was carbo based. Switching to keto/vore and zero 'flu'. I suggest you start more slowly and there will be no detox symptoms from carb addiction.
I am 69 yrs old. Started carnivore March 2021. I do eat can spinach sometimes but mostly bb&e. I have lost 50 lbs. blood pressure excellent so is kidney function. Gut problems have cleared up. I agree that I feel sooo much better, I don’t want to go back to junk at all! Also I can think better and no depression. Just “feel” to good to be depressed. ❤️😊
Man Dr. B, That was a " In a Nutshell" Vid. Great one to share with my peeps. Especially when I get crossfire question from folks That are struggling & confused. Salude.
Thank you so Berry, you have helped my husband and I, who are 69 and 72 to vastly improve our health, and as a bonus lose 20 pounds each. We were both very sick and suffering from constant pain. I was either in bed or a recliner, had given up even grocery shopping and i know we were suffering from malnutrition. We have also both lost 20 pounds since starting carnivore July 21 2023. We realize we have a lot more healing to achieve on this new way of life, but we are confident we will. We will never eat a plant based diet again.
I remember listening back before “keto” products came out. Ken said you’ll see these popping up so big business can jump on the profit wagon. Now they’re ALL OVER. Like he said your still eating the products actual keto promotes avoiding. He called it folks.
Yo, Doc... Little suggestion from Pennsylvania. How about wearing a "lapel mic" when these videos are made...? It would vastly improve the quality of the audio (which sometimes sounds as if the Ye Good Doc had been crammed down into a barrel.) Good Health and Long Life to the Good Doctor and Nurse Neisha !
