I'm a 62 Year old Retired Navy Seabee/Sniper. I saw one of Dr. Ken Berry's videos on the Carnivore diet 3 months ago. I only wanted to lose my gut i weighed 260 pounds at 6foot 2. I eat 7 eggs every morning, i eat costco ribeye steak for lunch and one ribeye steak for dinner. I went cold turkey and cut all carbs and sugar completely all out. Three months later i'm 215 pounds and getting back my 6 pack abs that i had as a Navy Seabee from 1978-never felt better and my Doctor is against what i'm doing. Thank you so much Dr. Berry for putting these great videos out for us to learn and get vital information from. Joe H Navy Seabee/Sniper😁😁😁😁😁😁

Awesome. Feels like the most powerful act of rebellion today is to take back your own health, ignore the vast majority of "health professionals," and sock it to the food industry by cutting processed poison out of your life. There's not a lot of money to be made out of healthy people, and strong, free-thinking folks are much harder to manipulate. No wonder that the next plans of the carbon zero lobby involve banning meat. Congrats on your results and thank you for your service.

A few years ago I sat through one of those motivational speeches given by a guest speaker at a company AGM. The speaker was the CEO of a company that makes granola bars and other 'healthy snacks' here in Australia. The company had recently launched a new granola bar that happened to contain blueberries. Sales were bad, so the marketing team got together to see how they could boost sales. Some bright spark noted that the product contained blueberries, which are an alleged super food, so all they did was write SUPER FOOD! on the packaging and lo and behold, sales went through the roof. The speaker told us this as though we should all be impressed, but really all they did was reveal how empty and shallow these food manufacturers really are, and how gullible we all are. This trick could never work with real super foods because they don't come in boxes.

[@terrifictomm]

In the 1990s “low fat” labeling was the rage. I picked up a can of condensed tomato soup “full fat” and compared to the same brand “low fat “ labeled soup. The only difference was one stated nutritional information for full fat milk added when heating and the other stated nutritional information using low fat milk added when heating. I realized then it was just labeling slight of hand.

[@lzl4226]

Yeah it's pretty bad in Australia. When I was growing up, for breakfast it's pretty much card board box soaked in sugar and milk, then you go to school and for lunch the canteen would sell you chips, mini pies and instant noodles. But if your parent can be bothered, you get the healthy option of peanut butter in starch brick, topped with jam, honey and maybe with a side of sugary fruits. I hope kids nowadays get some better stuff but I doubt it.

It was always something, salt water, crabbing off the pier at night, scalloping, fresh water fishing. It was a real treat if we got some roe.

Thanks Ken. Here in Ireland we are very lucky to have such and abundance of organic grass fed meats and poultry and eggs available as well as being surrounded by oceans full of the best seafood in the world yet we have an obesity epidemic. The worst in Europe. People work ridiculous hours, eat frozen and take away foods. Insane amounts of carbs. It’s terrible to watch. We are constantly told to eat less meat and eggs and dairy and try to have one or two vegetarian/vegan days per week. I feed myself and my kids bacon, eggs, meat, dark greens, peppers, kefir, sauerkraut, cheese everyday and my kids never miss school due to illness. Both my daughters and me and my wife did not get Covid despite everyone we know getting it. I’m rarely ever sick or lethargic. I do indulge sometimes in chocolate or crisps as do my kids but the way I see it. A little of what’s bad won’t do too much harm when you have a solid foundation. Thanks for the videos.

2 of the non-SuperFoods, Manuka honey & pomegranates do have specific medicinal issues/qualities. Pomegranates, unlike oranges but like grapefruit, directly affects a critical liver enzyme used by many of our pharmaceuticals that increases or decreases blood levels of specific drugs. I use grapefruit or pomegranates to allow me to maintain therapeutic levels of carbamazepine with about 2/3rds of my prescribed dosage. I have just begun pureeing whole grapefruits, since the rind and seeds have this important liver metabolite, too. I believe the whole fruit has a lower carb load than just the juice since the peels carbs are all fiber, and I can get the added liver & bile effects through its increasing my bile flow and biliary bile acid output. And Manuka honey, where the bees feed off of Leptospermum species, has an additional anti-bacterial/yeast protective quality, that ALL REAL HONEYS already share. It is being used in US clinics for a most effective protective wound care. Most honeys are medicinally useful due to the enzymatic production of hydrogen peroxide, along with high viscosity, low Ph and the high sugar content. But Manuka derived honeys can perhaps be as much as 100X as powerful in protecting wounds through a non-H2O2 method. Bees naturally include plant powers as they turn nectar & pollen into food for their babies and ward off what potential infections lurk everywhere. But all honey is already anti-bacterial and anti-fungal. And other plant species may certainly be as or even more medicinal, without national business interests to support them. Of course these wound-healing properties do not qualify it as a SuperFood.

And I never said that, it was them that told me, even teased me for it, probably out of jealousy. I often wondered why I was so much more intelligent than any of my siblings and parents, like where does it come from. Fact is, you are what you eat. There's nothing 'special' about me, I just eat the proper human diet and my body responds accordingly. Sardines are dirt cheap here in the UK. There are places where I can buy a tin for 37p.

Manuka honey is a great topical antibacterial and I know this from personal experience. My mother had massively ulcerated legs due to lymphedema. She also had a hospital acquired superbug in her ulcers which was confirmed by lab tests. Her doctor, nurses and I used every antibiotic and treatment. We tried topical manuka honey, pure, from NZ, for six weeks and the ulceration began to decrease and skin began granulating. This treatment was under medical supervision and coupled with pain relief and very strict hygiene protocols. After having such bad ulcers and tissue death, amputation was spoken of, her legs healed. She had awful scars and dead tissue can’t regenerate, but her legs healed and her health improved and she lived with much less pain and was more ambulant. Eating it? Well after using it in that way, somehow I don’t fancy it.

The most important term you mentioned for eggs and liver is “pasture raised.” The commonly used term “cage free” does not mean that the animals roam outside nor choose to eat what they want. As long as an enormous barn or coop has a single tiny opening to the outside, the eggs and animal proteins are labeled “cage free.” “Pasture raised” is currently the highest standard for treatment of animals in an unconfined manner. The nutritional quality of eggs and meat raised in this manner are superior to those from traditionally caged means.

[@Koolaukoa]

The problem with “nutrient dense” high fiber plant foods is that humans with health problems, damaged guts, cannot extract these vitamins/minerals in any significant amounts. We just end up damaging out sickly guts further with indigestible fiber, oxalates & other expensive superfoods and feeling worse. Just spend your hard earned money on foods your body can actually easily digest & get more nutrients that way. Thanks Dr. Berry for speaking the truth…

Human with seemingly no health issues also have problem with those. It's just not obvious. Therefore we continue to eat them until suddenly there is an obvious problem.

I support your statement, all honeys are not the same. The finished product, ie sugar , taste, colour , nutrients is dependent on the vegetation the pollen was collected from.

Chinese medicine uses honey for all sorts of gut treatments. Honey also heals open wounds with minimal scarring, it is often used on horses with awful injuries, one of honey's advantages over veterinary products is that it does not hurt on an open wound.

If I would have known sooner, they may not have happened. I was watching another doctor who said juicing would help clean my arteries to prevent future strokes, when they most likely compounded my allergy by "overdosing" on concentrated salicylates, oxalates, and all the other vegetable compounds by harming instead of helping. I have "lovingly" nicknamed salicylates "vitamin soap." The vegetables I was juicing with are high in them.
