[@nevillegoddard4966]

I can't find any research Dr. Fuhrman has done on the carnivore diet at all. He sells LOTS of plant-based products, including books he has written, & SUPPLEMENTS! There's your money shot there! Big bucks in supplements ay? So what supplements do carnivores need? I've started taking daily electrolytes actually since yesterday, to see if that will help with finger & toe cramps. Trying to drink more water too. I hate liver & kidney, but I can cop paté alright spread on some well cooked meat! I'm feeling fine a few weeks in. But I don't think I need any supplements! I've not been the perfect carnivore every single day, but 96% of the time I am! Maybe more accurately I should call myself a ketovore? And if I err it's like a teaspoon of raw sugar in my coffee at a friend's house, instead of my stevia. I eat eggs, bacon, maan I love bacon! A lot of beef mince or ground beef, lamb, pork chops sometimes. Those big ole ribeye steaks look yummo, but are a bit expensive. I should splurge one day & buy one. I'd probly marinate it & bake it. I've gotta have my meat fully cooked right through with zero blood or pink, or I can't eat it. Ew! Even burnt a bit is ok. Up to 6 eggs with meat mostly. I use use onion & garlic a lot, & I throw in a small carrot in quite often. I also use peeled tomatoes & tomato paste. I make curries with coconut sometimes. They are the only veges I eat, & they seem ok; I really used them for years. There's oxalates in tomato paste & seeds, but it seems my system is ok with it. Maybe I may try removing all these for a bit, but I really like them for their flavours. But Dr. Fuhrman should not be making such idiotic, inflammatory statements about the carnivore diet. He clearly has conflicts of interest since he SELLS the stuff he promotes. I'll be open-minded, I'll accept people could be healthy on a considered, supplemented plant-based diet with no meat intake. But that doesn't necessarily mean it's the ONLY way to eat! According to Fuhrman, it is the only way. Meh, no. Ancient & prehistoric humanoids were overwhelmingly carnivores according to research cited by Dr. Anthony Chaffee, using some kind of analysis on their teeth & bone. So I'm not gonna listen to anything this guy says at all. He's way too dismissive & one eyed, & his aggression pollutes my thinking, which I can do without. His plant-based diet my be ok, but he still has idiot ideas, which negate everything else.

[@judyweigl9604]

For health reasons I went total vegetarian, vegan, raw foods, for over five years. However, for me, things went from bad to worse. The turning point was when, after a blood panel, my doctor told me to reduce my red meat intake and exercise more. Well, if being a vegan and hiker wasn’t enough, then what was the use? I introduced meat back into my diet, reduced the sugars and carbs and wouldn’t you know it, everything started getting better. My next blood panel proved I was on the right track. The doctor then had to admit she was doing the same thing and that’s why she was already off three of her four meds (she was twenty years younger than me), and loosing weight, too. I’m 73 and do not need any medications.

@@hugoanderkiviyep. Sadly these Vegan influencers have been ramping up their lies recently. Is it coincidentally after the WEF and Bill Gates have started pushing the banning of meat and animal products blaming them on the hoax of ‘man-made’ climate change, which has nothing to do with methane or CO2, is a natural cycle, and isn’t an emergency ? I guess they fund these Vegan influencers and groups to ramp things up to brainwash the public. It’s all about controlling the food supply and making people sick and then reducing populations, making money on medications treating the sick and malnourished, and also so Bill can sell his fake ‘meat’ and fake lab ‘eggs’ which will cause cancers and malnourished and cause other harm to the public.

[@teslinjoe5938]

With hindsight, I can honestly say that over my lifetime (pushing 7 decades), doctors have caused me far more harm than good. The lack of integrity in the health care system that became blatantly obvious in the spring of 2020 is what began my search for answers that eventually led me to carnivore. Lo and behold, a number of conditions that I had accepted as "age-related" and wasn't even focused on just happened to resolve themselves -- so thankful that I wasn't steered away by the so-called "experts." I'd rather have ten more years feeling as well as I do now than thirty more years being miserable like I was before carnivore. That said, I fully anticipate a longer and far healthier life ahead of me than I did three years ago.

[@Jen.K]

Same here, western medicine and medical doctors have also caused me more harm than good, in the long run. I'm still recovering from an iatrogenic illness caused by a medication prescribed by my doctor. So much suffering from side effects and other consequences, it nearly took my life, twice. I no longer visit a doctor unless I absolutely have to, and then I take what they say with a grain of salt and do my own research before following their advice or taking their pills. The last time I took an anti-biotic it cured my gum infection, but a whole string of other negative effects flowed on from the imbalance caused by the pills, causing all kinds of issues which lasted months. I should have let my infection heal by itself, which is what I usually do. Safely back on a meat based keto diet now, and feeling better already.

Thank you Dr. Westman for your thoughtful response to Dr. Fuhrman's idiotic assertions.

I ate lots of animal fats and yet lost fat. I have gone off "the diet wagon" eating pastries and ice cream recently and immediately gained fat on my body and had to go back to size 12 pants from size 12, and L from M tops (before going keto i wore size 18 and XL clothes). Next month i shall be 82 yrs. old. My goal is to be healthy when i die. So more carnivore and fewer vegetables from now on.

The best thing I've heard was Dr. Ken Berry. He said you don't need "a diet", you don't need to buy a book, you don't need a "program". Just shop from the perimeter of the store and get up and move. Fresh low-carb produce, meat, cheese, eggs, and milk.

the longevity tests done on mice showed thatthey lived 30% longer when calorie restricted. BUT THE HUGE FLAW in the test was they were fed stuff that werent meant for them naturally. in short they were fed garbage. so ofcourse if you reduce the garbage intake(the very shit thats killing you) then you live longer. this was confirmed by a new study where mice were fed what they were naturally meant to eat and their lifespan was the same as those with restricted calories. i heard this info from dr chaffee i think.

I was on "healthy keto" for 4 years. I believe the oxalates from the greens I ate caused my arthritis in my hands and back. I switched to the carnivore diet now for 3 weeks. Now, I can snap my fingers with no pain. That pain I have on my back is gone. I know that the arthritis is with me forever, but at least the pain it caused before is gone. And my gum disease is all fixed. Amazing!

Most fruits and vegetables didn't exist 25,000 yrs ago in the form we have today. We simply didn't eat that many plants in our past... plus, they are seasonal, which means they weren't around to eat anyway!!

And btw Dr. Westman is just the easiest person to listen too. He’s one of the best out here.
