I’ve been on carnivore for 525 days and feel amazing. I’m 62 yrs old and was morbidly obese at 300 lbs and suffering from T2 diabetes, high blood pressure, IBS, migraines, brain fog, acid reflux, chronic arthritis in my ones so bad I could hardly walk, depression, anxiety and a lot more. Well here I am now and I’ve not only lost 97 lbs… ALL of the above conditions are in full remission or cured and I’m off ALL MEDS. My energy levels, mental clarity and focus is off the charts and I look and feel like I’m in my 20’s again. My decision to change my way of eating from the SAD diet to carnivore was one of the best decisions of my life. 😊

Inspirational thank you for your honest testimony. 🙏 we always need to keep hearing the truth to stay motivated and on track. It works when we can keep off carbs and this is the challenge for all sorts of reasons. Today I made carnivore flatbread with cottage cheese and eggs and filled it with goasts cheese just to keep me off carbs all round me here. So satisfying and soothing I find when only eating carnivore food. Beef and eggs are my daily best food choice

[@Papacarnivore15]

I actually started as “dirty” Keto for several months (with the keto snacks and treats), then went Clean Whole Foods Keto for several months, then Ketovore and have been full Carnivore for the past year. I still drink one cup of “fatty” coffee every morning (with heavy cream and grass fed butter), I sometimes will have a half an avocado or some low carb veg with my meat, and some occasional berries but for the most part I eat fatty (mostly red) meat, seafood and eggs, butter and cook my steaks in beef tallow. I feel best when I keep my fat macros high (70-80%) and I eat 2 meals per day with intermittent fasting, with a 18/6 (6 hour eating window) so I stay in Ketosis as long as possible. I have done a few 24 hour fasts just bc I wasn’t hungry, but I don’t enjoy feeling hungry so I don’t force myself to fast. I hope this helps!😊

[@stanleysheppard8464]

My journey into carnivore actually started with one of Lisa Wiedeman's video where she talked about eye health and just mentioned that she is not only not using any of the highly processed seed oils but also follows a carnivore diet. This was the first seed that started me on my research and eventually a carnivore lifestyle. I have been on carnivore diet since late October last year and have seen a lot of positive changes. From a body composition perspective I'm today (nearly 60 y.o.) like I was in my early thirties, gone are GERD and skin problems, as I realized later I probably had undiagnosed t2 diabetes, that now I don't have any signs of. Unfortunately carnivore didn't miraculously cure my sick eye, but hopefully removing a lot of underlying issues it is going to help me to preserve vision in my other eye. Becoming a carnivore wasn't the easiest of journeys, I could not get rid of diarrheav for about three months and my wife had serious issues with oxalate dumping, but eventually we managed to overcome these problems. To those who are at a very beginning of their journey I'd like to say not to get discouraged, as you will start feeling real health benefits six to nine months after your lifestyle change. It took a lot of years to develop all the problems we have, so it doesn't take overnight to get rid of them all. Thank you Judy for this guest and thank you Lisa for being the first ray of light that has shown me the way!

[@ImperfectCarnivoreUK]

I have been on and off carnivore for nearly 10 years. I am currently working through a health scare that has made me commit 100%. NOT doing carnivore is a huge mistake.

I still drink organic coffee with raw cream and stevia and have lost 15 pounds and my body is healing. 90 days in. I only eat ribeye eggs bacon lamb butter tallow and occasional shrimp lobster and cheese. The fat keeps me satisfied. I was a serious over eater but since I started this diet and higher fat my body tells me your done eating. That never happened to me before.

[@MrIATaylor]

If you foam the cream the sugars come out and you might even be able to reduce or stop your fake sugar! Works for me.

[@tinakathleen8571]

Sound's similar to me. My breakfast treat is prawns in butter with 4 scrambled eggs with parmasen cheese and a hint of pure cream and salt and cook it over the cooked prawns like an omelette. I also love eye fillets and lamb and mince and fish and quality organic coffee. But I expect to give even coffee up eventually, too, because it will only induce gastro when on a carnivore diet. Seems to me carbs need coffee but carnivore doesn't need any extra dopamine hits nor assistance in digestion like the S.A.D

Finally a CARNIVORE who straight up says it doesnt work for everyone! Love the honesty

[@johndempsey99]

That's not uncommon most carnivores are trying to improve their health not tell others what's right or wrong for them.

[@markinnis8404]

Carnivore is not right for everyone because you have to change it up for those who can not or will not follow through. And that means getting through the time your body is reseting. Oxalate purging, keto flu, getting fat adapted, sugar withdrawal. Carnivore works for everyone because it is our native diet! So don't read to much into the way she said Carnivore doesn't work for everyone. Not true, everyone is not ready to commit to Carnivore, this is true!!❤❤ Good luck!!

This is great advice, but for some people that isn't enough. Some of us have to eat just meat to switch on our true health.

Im sorry, but this conflicting conversation about all the conflicting content about the conflicting stories of the conflicting...this was all very conflicting. Your pod cast was great up to this point. Tell the story and tell it true, it is up to all of us to research a topic several times. Once i find the guys and gals that i trust, i don't go looking for someone else to try to change my mind. The other thing that is more helpful than most people trying to convince you, is to listen to real people telling their story...so much powerful information. Dave mac...has a hell of a podcast that all of his guest tell their stories. We all can pick up powerful information and no one to argue with, because they are telling you their story and their why and who they listened too. Awesome stuff!!❤❤

My meal on repeat lately is a prawn omelette each day usually for breakfast. 4 eggs and a handful of frozen prawns sometimes with a little garlic in butter then add scrambled egg mixture of 3 or 4 eggs with a hint of pure cream and greated parmasen cheese and salt.

Lisa has such good insight into food addiction and disordered eating. I’m 3 years Carnivore and still find myself eating huge plates of meat. I am very strict with the quality but the only thing that stops me eating too much is that I am sooo full and simply cannot eat any more. I have recognised that I still have that tendency to overeat, but once I’ve walked away from the table, the thoughts are gone and I won’t be hungry for quite a few hours.

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Butter with the meat? Or before? Butter fills me like nothing else

I can so relate. Seven years carnivore but I do fall off the wagon. Even a tiny tangerine will lead me to eating hubby’s carbs. I do have recurring foot nerve pain on carnivore so I start thinking I need some vitamin c. So I’m caught between carnivore and experimenting with foods to counter gout. One thing that helps is keeping my protein to a minimum of 60 grams a day and upping the fat to 140 grams a day.

Sounds like a b vitamin issue. You may need to fix your vitamin d level so your microbiome can produce b vitamins for you.

Bacon has roughly a ration of almost equal fat & protein. Pork belly is pure and you can cure it with butcher salt at home. So eating 1-2 pounds of meat per day with bacon / pork belly being a significant portion is fine. Dr. Jason Fung has mentioned a Bacon & Egg fast. It is really hard to want to eat a pound of bacon and a dozen eggs. You might eat that over (3) meals.

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

I can eat half lb easily No prob afterward with the fat either Plus eggs I eat only beef bacon the last few years but pork bacon, oh yes

When I eliminated sweet TASTE I felt much less drawn to it at all No diet pop etc (never used pricey sweet paks of electrolytes) Butter was my fat of choice but crisped beef fat is awesome also. Fat satiation subs for the need for sweet.

I took the smallest bowl I could find just a sample and I had it and I didn’t need anymore. It was like not as good, so hopefully things are starting to work on me, but I have a lot

I'm 69 and considering eating carnivore. I'm concerned about getting diahrea or keto flu. I have a lot of health issues and would love more energy and stop spending so much time in bed. Thanks so much sharing! Working on getting brave

[@magdelinalee2101]

Get started yesterday if you get diarea is going to be ok means you get clean up 😊

[@prunelle19]

You can ease into carnivore by starting with a ketogenic diet, no starches no sugar, and eat more meat/eggs/fish as you go until you are getting confortable eating carnivore

[@pamparlow4838]

Please, Robin, just do it. Get your life back. I wish I could convince my sister and my mother.

[@ThelmaFulcher]

Two words. Do it!

[@tinakathleen8571]

Gastro isn't a given and I observed it's when you don't fully give up caffeine that gastro may kick in. But gastro is body cleaning out the rubbish anyways.

When i started keto I was scared to death that it would be impossible to stick too. I had a friend who had successfully lost and kept off weight and they suggested that if I just jumped in 100% it would seem much harder so set up strict but realistic guidelines and that worked for me. Basically my guidelines were: strict keto (>20g total carbs/day) during the work week (mon morn until off work Friday) and the freedom to choose non keto foods on Saturday, what is served when having super at a friends and just choosing the most keto option that I enjoy from a restaurant. I felt like I had a lot of freedom so it wasn’t ’restricting’… i found as time went on and as the result became more and more obvious I wanted the carbs less and less. Over ~75lbs lost and kept off for a decade and a half now… about 95% Carnivore now because it’s what i enjoy… i do season with hot peppers and leeks that I grow myself and will cheat now and then with something sweet like on my birthday I had an Asian pear… i do find that when eating almost purely meat, I end up eating 1 meal a day… i was about a year in when i learned that it was actually a thing… i just found that the fat/protein based meal i just can’t eat multiple times a day… and now i love how much extra time i have each day.. .

[@papinoo1159]

There are complexities to carnivore - it has to be customized to the person. That is the understatement of the century!!!

[@larryraffburn-eg8wg]

When I went to the doctor my blood pressure was always high. I was on bp meds and he wanted me to get an echocardiogram. He must have told them that he expected heart failure and lo and behold they did. I knew it was wrong so I went to the Cleveland clinic. My heart is perfect. It’s 100% (60-65%) I believe the doctor can influence the outcome of a test by telling the testor what to expect.

[@scottstevens6380]

Thank you.

[@RoosKohn]

I am now on carnivore for over a year. First months my psoriasis cleared up. A few months ago I started having honey nuts and blueberries. Also adapt to people I eat with. I don’t go into binge mode but even like once a week having a little bread or pasta caused my disease to return. I wonder if the disease would go away again if I was stricter to carnivore.

[@NutritionwithJudy]

If you were part of my practice, I would recommend going stricter and seeing how you do. If your psoriasis clears, stay there for a while. Then see what threshold (amount and frequency) you can add back blueberries without getting any patches of psoriasis. I don't recommend honey nuts. If you can't do any (organic) blueberries, then you may just need to support the gut for a little while longer on carnivore and see if you can add non-carnivore foods back later. Healing takes time and the internet is not good with sharing the truth that sometimes that time for healing is longer than we wish.

[@RoosKohn]

@@NutritionwithJudy thank you Judy, I shall follow your advice.

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Ofc it will It did the first time Go carni again Carni doesn’t have the things u eat

[@marlamorris3721]

​@@NutritionwithJudythis answer is everything!

[@magdelinalee2101]

Go back to carnivor to fel good again. Never change from carnivor😊

[@nackyeads2508]

That was encouraging, even if I never get to a place where carnivores are gathered! We just have to do our best with whoever God sends us. 🙏💌

[@robyn3349]

Thank you ❤

[@darrinturnbull8471]

Great interview thankyou

@lisaweedman thanks for flying your freak flag ❤❤❤ I am type 1 and just celebrated my one year anniversary ❤❤❤

Yeah great idea Lisa. Yellow is a freindly colour and great idea to use a signal to help us know each other esepcially on a cruise say

[@alanaa6018]

Thanks!

[@lima685]

You look really good! Great job on your journey and definitely carnivore is the way to go…

[@winn9757]

I use soda maker to generate my own chilled unflavor soda water. I feel wonder taking tjis carbonated water after a warm meal. Is it good to take pure carbonated water? thx

[@freightking1757]

Yes, my wife is on SAD. She isn't on board with PHD. It makes it difficult to stay on course.

[@petercherepanov8967]

I feel the best when eating only ruminant animals. Chicken isn't as nourishing to me, and I gave up pork and bottom feeding seafood several years ago. Carnivore diet has changed my life, and it's been less than four months. I can't see ever going back to high carbs and oxalates. I feel like I'm getting younger, and I'll be 63 next month.

[@larryraffburn-eg8wg]

I went on Irwin Stillman’s diet in 1972. Meat and fat. I lost 42 pounds and looked and felt fantastic. It actually looked like I worked out; which I didn’t.

[@StoneAgePHD]

Yes, for me is a cheese too, specially called “Brick” cheez , so yammy and eating after a meal good for your gums and teeth

[@jansteinvonsquidmeirsteen2256]

Excellent dialog.

I have always said sugar and alcohol...drugs are age accelerants.

[@tonywinkler8609]

If she's turning 60 God has blessed her with the fountain of youth don't look a day over 45

[@ImperfectCarnivoreUK]

She blessed herself with the knowledge of the carnivore diet. She would not look this amazing if she had been eating a poor diet.

[@straubdavid9]

Every day I move towards carnivore, I feel freer .... free from SAD! I can get in and out of a grocery story in minutes, because there are fewer and fewer aisles that I need to peruse. I make a list, and am sticking too it more and more. And if I do stray from the list, it is in the meat/seafood aisle. I have a serious food addiction at 70yrs old, and I know it. I also know that it took over 60 years of cultivating it to now force myself to spend the rest of my life healing myself. The food industry has poisoned me intentionally, and now I am fighting back to get out from under their thumb. Today was a full carnivore day, tomorrow may be a Ketovore day .... if that is the only fluctuating that I do .... I feel that I have "arrived". 🤣

[@shroud1390]

Wow I thought I had a hard diet. Carnivore sounds tough. Good luck!!

[@ImperfectCarnivoreUK]

Not as tough as it sounds.

[@debiegordon4484]

Does it help with menopause ? I'm 59 and was on patches which did help but it wasn't right for me. It took me 4 attempts to come off them and on the 5 attempt I have been off them for 6months. I'm coping, I have stopped sugars and processed food which has help. Great podcast ladies thank you 😊

[@I-serve-you-tea]

My BIL who is strict vegan talks about meat faces. Says meat eaters have puffiness that is identifiable. Btw he is in his mid 70s and still has a well defined, muscular body. Not sure what to think now.

[@cetogenicaportugal8514]

Ketogenic for more than 5 years, carnivore the last 2 years. Better than ever 🎉🎉🎉

[@I-serve-you-tea]

What they mean by unsustainable is environmental. The alternative to the carnivore diet is not necessarily pop tarts and potato chips. Whole food vegan is an alternative too. I am so skeptical of this diet. Yet I am interested too. Can I do it my whole life? Because the backlash if you stop it is weight gain and then some.

[@kymwalters683]

Qqq. Judy. Love your work. I have been dirty carnivore for two years. I am trying desperately to go the whole deal. But still fighting sugar cravings etc. I have been using an app to follow my food intake. And it tells me that I should eat less protien because my homeosistine levels will increase causing me to have arterial sclerosis. Question is do you think this is truly the case. They recommend 1palm size portion a day ???

[@lauragreyling5589]

Tickbite red meat allergies? Have you heard of it? What to do? I tried carnivore for 3 months.. got so many benefits in lba and amino levels, but couldnt stomach meats anymore.. and I was so terribly bloated/constipated no matter what the fat intake was. Please help?

[@eveoc781_xxy49]

What do you think about doing carnivore and taking a low dose of statins?

[@David_144]

If I could only give up drinking 20-30 oz of coke every day - that's my biggest challenge by far.

[@YeshuaKingMessiah]

Drink it flat Then warm

[@christinewhite1733]

Or start diluting it with sparkling water, gradually.

[@Papacarnivore15]

As Dr Lisa says… “Suck it up Buttercup” and cut that toxic sugar laden pop/soda out of your life. Dr Ken Berry has a great video about how to wean off soda or diet soda by slowly adding/diluting the soda with sparkling water more and more over time until you’re completely off soda/pop.😊

[@tinakathleen8571]

Use coke to clean your bathroom and get perspective. It's poison not even a drinking option. You sound addicted to caffeine and sugar taste. Push it out with another drink

[@larryraffburn-eg8wg]

The repetition makes it easier for me because I love ALL food. This cuts it out.
