@johnny7808 Год назад

though its a known fact that across the population an increase triglycerides from say 80 to 120 is an increase in risk, it is not a known fact that among healthy people who have the same trig increase due to nothing but coffee intake, that such an increase represents an increase in risk. Its never been studied. Trigs are generally a marker for metabolic health, which decreased in the first group but not the second group.

About 95% carnivore but love my coffee. A pleasure that I have no intention of giving up and especially enjoy the social side of meeting for coffees with friends etc. On occasions due to travelling etc I go without it with no issues. Also can enjoy it late at night and sleep like a baby. We all have different detox abilities for different toxins and the modern world exposes us daily to many most of which are much less enjoyable and potentially more harmful. We all have to live our lives and make choices on these issues and keep some perspective. My 3 coffee a day habit probably less significant to my health than my days as a carb guzzling low fat junkie! Other prominent carnivores in the community such as Ken Berry and Amber O'Hearn also enjoy their coffee - there is room for all of us.

I love the way st Chaffee says *you can just stop drinking it * That shows the mental strength attitude & fortitude . Yes , it’s truly that simple , but NOT easy . I quit smoking in. July 2019 & all I did was just STOP . It was hard for the first few days . 4.5 yrs later …I haven’t lit a single cigarette . I clung harder to my coffee as I also quit sugar , junk food , bad habits , night snacking , so I lie to myself and say this is all I have left it’s my mind lying to me . I’m currently on half caff strictly before noon only . Been on coffe since my aunt used to take me to work at Dunkin’ Donuts back when they wore skirts & had glass mugs . I unknowingly started my caffeine addiction at age 9 but started *needing it* in my 20s.

Under my calm demeanour a storm is always brewing. Will I be able today to handle the coffee smell in the house this morning and from my husband’s cup? As I lay still half asleep I contemplate the beginning of this day with very little hope and a cringe on my face. What else can I do to heal my histamine intolerance?

Even eating a carnivore diet was such a challenge but I can proudly say that at least I conquered that hurdle and I have no more sweet cravings. Let’s hope I can manage the coffee as well.

I never understand why some people, including Dr. Chaffee, insist that coffee tastes bad! I easily gave up caffeinated coffee because I drink it for the flavor, not the caffeine. I've also given up the decaf many times just to see how I feel. No change...so decaf, with a big spoonful of butter, is remaining part of my morning routine for now.

@anthonychaffeemd Год назад

Of course taste is subjective, and some people enjoy the taste of coffee certainly. It's usually an acquired taste though, as it's generally quite bitter, which most people don't like at first. But if you like it and don't feel a difference in your health and by all means go for it!

@j.p.8305 Год назад

I still drink decaf coffee as well, I tend to lean toward the most full-bodied coffees at that. I wonder if I quit and came back if I'd still enjoy it. I used to drink alcohol pretty regularly in my 20s and would have to do beer tastings for work and pick out the different notes and after not drinking for 4 years I can't stand the taste of it and I think they all taste the same. 🤔

@TerriblePerfection Год назад

@@j.p.8305 Tastes do change. Sometimes I wonder if it's more psychological than physiological. When I was vegetarian, I made elaborate salads that tasted delicious to me, pairing salty with sweet, making homemade dressing and croutons, etc. Now I'm mostly carnivore and don't even miss them, but only because I believe they aren't healthy. If new evidence proved that to be false, I would undoubtedly enjoy them again. But no more kale. Those spiky, tough leaves are truly inedible!

Also have been considering to employ carnivore for possible healing benefits, yet still not able to give up all of my favourite plant foods, which I believe, are also keeping the microbes satisfied 😅 The concept - clearly established through Weston Price's research - of 'NOT ONE DIET FOR ALL', also makes good sense... Some really do better when consuming more animal products. Others though, do better on a predominantly plant based diet, while there also are those of us who thrive on a mixed, balanced diet. Also, in principle: Would it not be best for one to become metabolically flexible, with the ability to fluctuate between burning ketones and glucose for energy?

Well that really depends on the type of coffee and how you make it. I had a great cup in Portland and talked to the shop owner about their process which allowed me to dial in my process where it's never bitter. It's all a personal choice. If coffee makes you feel bad then don't drink it. That being said I've taken some time off from my morning coffee to see how it affects my next blood panel so maybe that will make me rethink how much I drink. Now giving up alcohol really made an impact on how I feel in general so staying away from that is very noticeable.

That was probably the most shocking thing for me, the lack of soreness. I am a former competitive powerlifter and used to being sore all the time when I train. Recently I decided I wanted to focus more on hypertrophy and developed a crazy meso-cycle that I literally couldn't even complete the first week because it had me lifting muscle groups 2x a week and the volume was just too high to recover. I started carnivore about a week ago and decided to restart my cycle and to my amazement I was recovering literally twice as fast. Still had DOMS, but it was nowhere near what I had on a low carb (plant/fruit) keto diet. That's after just one week lol, the best thing is though now I can get my calories in without eating all day and it tastes so much better and is faster to cook. My protein intake is so high now I am actually able to skip protein supplements. I admit, giving up coffee is going to be hard for me as I was raised on it (from Seattle and it was the original pre-workout), but I am willing to do so if I don't need it.

For 2 months I ate normal/drank coffee and did 100 squats a day. I could do two sets of 50 comfortably before fatigue. Then I did a dry fast (no food or water) and kept doing the squats. Same results on day 1 and 2 but after day 3 (72 hours) I was able to do 444 squats IN A ROW without fatigue. I actually just stopped at 444 not because I was sore but because I was laughing so hard. Ok so now I'm 10 days into strict carnivore 0 carbs and I'm a bit weak from keto flu maybe? I feel better everyday but still haven't gone to the gym. Well I was still drinking coffee this whole 10 days too but today was my last cup.

@anthonychaffeemd Год назад

I wouldn't cook with it, but if it's fresh pressed yourself then using it cold is less of an issue. Any plant oils even olive oil becomes very unstable when removed from the plant, and cooking with it makes it far worse. You speed up the degradation reaction significantly with increased temperature. Every 10° c that you increase the heat you double the reaction rate. So you can increase the speed of degradation to very harmful byproducts by millions and millions of times by cooking with plant oils. So if you're going to use the olive oil that you press freshly, I would definitely not cook with it.

He's giving his residents as much of a keto-vore diet as he possibly can and seeing great result in terms of better cognition, more energy, etc. link: youtube .com/watch?v=QB5HwjOw2v8&ab_channel=Dr.ShawnBakerPodcast There's also a somewhat overlapping approach of diet and reducing inflammation among other targets as a precision medicine strategy to halt and even reverse Alzheimer's. It's Dr Dale Bredesen's protocol that checks around 40 markers to include CRP (inflammation), hormones (e.g. thyroid), insulin resistance, etc., and this is combined with a healthier low sugar low carbohydrate diet. Bredesen is an MD PhD academic neurologist and has published several patient studies on his protocol under NIH oversight. In his first published study, 9 out of 10 Alzheimer patients had significant improvement and reversal of dementia. Out of the 7 patients forced to retire early, 6 recovered enough to return to work (at least part time or more). BTW, Bredesen's strategy essentially formalized what some functional medicine MD physicians were already doing with success for many of their patients. I'm a medical neuroscientist and have also had success reversing and stabilizing dementia patients using keto-vore and other overlapping methods. Best to treat soon after diagnosis or when early symptoms appear, but there's still noticeable response even with patients who've had dementia for years. If you're interested, look for Bredesen's interviews and his books, especially The End of Alzheimer's which describes the protocol in detail.

Except for the bread which was used to convey the food, all of these items were animal based. No mention of vegetables, salad or dessert. Makes me pause to reflect.

Awesome reflection, in the desert they ate Quail and Manna although what manna might have been is debatable, Quail was meat and fat. Also, Daniel refused the king's food for various reasons and he only allowed himself vegetables everyone was worried about his health but he survived because of God. I never really paid attention in Bible class to that story as a kid but a few yrs ago I was reading that and thinking about how sickly some vegetarians get by not taking in a proper amount of protein from meat and fat , it's a miracle that he survived those yrs without proper nutrition in those days.

@merrymarthlamb3185 Год назад

@@stacyketner My opinion here, but I think Daniel refused the king's food because they ate pork and used pork skins to age their wine in. They may also have sacrificed their animals to pagan gods and then made their banquets from those meats. Something that would be a transgression of the food laws. The bible says he and his friends at pulses which are legumes like chickpeas and high in protein, and they didn't have all the processed junk that we have which many vegans eat. No tofu, TVP, cheese pizza in copious amounts. Also they did not have the nightshades like potatoes or tomatoes. I think plants today are probably more toxic than in those days. And those quail in the desert: God provided manna but the people grumbled and complained that they didn't have meat, so God sent quail in such numbers that they were easy to capture and kill. Those people who partook of the quail feast all died with the meat still in their mouths. Instead of being grateful and giving thanks to God, they died in their greed and gluttony. A lesson in being careful what we ask for. Sorry for the length.

I refuse to feel guilty when erythritol is touted as heart attack causing (the studies loaded the poor mice up with a carful of the stuff) when caffeine is vilified as (insert the latest study here). I will continue to drink my 20 ounces of half caffeinated coffee with 2 T butter, 3 T cream and 1 one gram package of stevia/erythritol for dessert. Sometimes we go on and on about stuff but I am drawn to the philosophy of Dr Eric Westman more and more. He has successfully rescued so many metabolically unhealthy folks with moderation as his key preaching. PS I enjoy your videos for the overall goal of becoming meat based and appreciate that you always preface your recommendations with “This is what happened to me” Thank you for sharing your story.

My 88 year old Mom has been drinking tea her whole life. Even as a child. Coffee her entire adult like. She’s very healthy other than some heart issues. Her damage was years of eating sugar and flour. She was 160# at 85. I got a hold of her diet after her husband passed. Now she’s 134. No arthritis. No autoimmune.

The question to ask which you'll never know the answer to is how would she be without coffee? Vegans tell me all the time they are perfectly healthy on plants and therefore plants aren't harmful. But have they experienced life without plants? No. Coffee won't kill you but that's not proof it's better than not having it at all

Then that is not healthy at all.

Coffee is cancer.

I just lost my mother at the age of 93. She also had no signs of heart disease, and was still pretty physically active... She would go out and garden, etc. She ate The standard American diet and got a blockage from eating too much fiber. They had to go in to remove the blockage and at that time septis got into her whole body and she died. So fiber is deadly.

Coming from Australia NSW I used to be keto omad I’ve just stared carnivore & having one black coffee a day & drinking water for the rest I’m at omad eating rump bacon eggs or beef snags I do eat sheep yogurt. Atm healing a dislocated knee Great podcast thank you.

Just curious Louise~ Are "snags" sausages by chance? By "rump" do you mean beef rump roast? My experience w/coffee has been interesting as I've been a coffee drinker~ 2-4 a day~ for decades. I'm finding that has decreased to now just one coffee w/creamin the morning, & often I don't finish it. It has begun to make me feel anxious/sketchy, & is no longer appealing or desired. Time to simply give it up, in my case. Only water besides that, meat-based for 2 yrs, low carb for several more prior. Also, never cared for eggs at all, & now I enjoy them several times a week. Interesting how the palate shifts. The longer I eat meat, (& animal products) the more I want only meat. The longer I drink only water, the more I want only water. *Also quit a 30 yr diet soda habit, which was at least 2 a day ...all that time~ errgghh. I feel pretty awful about what I fed my precious body all those years, thinking I was healthy w/all the low fat/high fiber/lean protein.

@@RV-there-Yet I’m guessing Louise being Aussie that she means sausages when using the slang term snags. Also having a rump is a rump steak in Australia ( & NZ & UK ) and is the same as a Sirloin Steak in the USA

Hey Anthony, big fan of yours and the lifestyle you promote. Do you recommend any iodine supplementation on the carnivore diet such as potassium iodide/Lugol's/kelp - or is it unnecessary when you're not consuming caffeine? Ive read there's an inverse relationship between caffeine consumption and iodine. Thanks!

@nakedtoes7000 Год назад

I wanted soooo badly to keep coffee in my diet but, I kept getting gut issues, scalp and skin crawling with rashes. On top of that, I think that I feel over stimulated now. Animal products, minus dairy only seems the most sensible. I am currently on a long water fast to facilitate more healing so, no coffee did not affect me as far as withdrawals.

I am on carnivore. I cannot tolerate pork in my diet and can only have chicken occasionally. My diffuse aches and pains return with pork. I do best on beef.

When you think about it, if human beings are meant to be carnivores and we can't cope with all the sugar and other things in plants, then maybe diabetics aren't sick people at all. If it is normal to not eat plants then their bodies are just reacting to to eating something that they shouldn't be eating
