Are Bologna & Hot Dogs Safe to Eat? [Cheap Carnivore] 2024

[@robertfromtexas2480]

I'm a truck driver. I sit in a truck for hours at a time. I keep hot dogs,eggs, hamburger patties in my refrigerator. In my little pantry I have sardines, Vienna sausages, mackerel in olive oil. I have lost a lot of weight eating this diet. And I keep it off. As long as I don't go crazy with sugar and carbs. Obesity is a huge problem in the trucking industry so I try to educate other drivers about proper eating habits. A lot Of those eating habits. I learned from this channel. Thank you sir

[@BeefNEggs057]

Not cheaper than 100% beef patties however. You can get frozen beef patties for $4 a lb. Hot dogs are $4 a lb or more for decent ones. Why not just air fry a bunch of hamburger patties and have them ready to eat? Cleaner is better. No corn syrup and filler garbage. Viennas are good on the road though. Better isn’t best. McDs burger patties are $1.20 each - also way better than viennas.

Thank you, Dr. Berry!! I was so sick at the end of the holidays last winter and was really pretty scared. I prayed and asked God for a diet plan which would work this time. I stumbled upon your KZbin site and began Keto, then Carnivore, then Ketovore, etc. I lost 25 pounds in 4 months, regained energy and a lot of mental clarity. Even my eyesight improved. I ate carbs via fruit and Kombucha through the hot summer because I had lots of landscaping to take care of in the highly- humidified heat. Through the summer I lost lots of visceral fat because of the sweating and physical activity. I plan to go back on Carnivore and intermittent fasting to lose the next 20 pounds. My husband was just diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Because he’s seen the plan work for me, he’s onboard to do the plan himself. He’s lost 10 pounds in two weeks and turned the corner with carb withdrawal a few days ago. I’m having him watch your vids on reversing Type 2 with diet. He’s so encouraged!!

Have tried to help so many seniors, but most do not want to change their diet even though they have health issues based on their diet. Great to hear you can see it as a problem you can solve. On affordability, I have found that the cheapest cuts of meat like brisket is very affordable. It is only $1.99 per pound when on sale. Only problem is it is sold in packages about 7 to 15 lbs. also, you should be saving money with only meat and fat to buy for food. I no longer have waste on veggies and fruit. Also, ask the butcher for the fat trimmings from beef. I use it as my cooking oil. It can be free since they throw it away. I pay for mine, but it is still cheap at $1.99/lb for grass fed fat. Takes me months to finish it all.

This is very welcome news, Dr. Berry, because bologna and hot dogs are mainstays of my keto/carnivore diet. I have the occasional ribeye or ny strip steak, but my fixed income budget will not allow for too much extravagance. The nutrition media really tries to spook everyone on this point. Thanks again.

[@steves2176]

I love your videos Dr. Berry! You've turned me on to so many facts about the carnivore diet! I've been totally carnivore for nearly 2 years now and have never felt or looked better! I'm 66 years old and as ripped as a 30 year old athlete, maybe even more! I've always been an athlete myself and still work out with the HIT (High Intensity Training) method twice a week and take each set (one or two per body part only) to absolute failure. That's why I go 4-5 days between workouts. To enable my muscles to heal, strengthen and grow, especially at my age. I understand what your saying about the mixes of meat, collagen and fat content but when I was at the store today looking for all beef bologna and/or hot dogs, they all had corn syrup, some had sugar, along with a lot of other pronounceable ingredients! I personally do not want to consume this stuff, especially the high fructose corn syrup. Can you suggest a brand of bologna or hot dogs that does not have the corn syrup or sugar in it? If I could find some, I'd definitely eat a few rolled up pieces of bologna as a snack in the evening to go with some of the aged swiss, white cheddar, cheese curds and Dubliner cheese that I'll usually munch on. Thanks so much for all you do and all the information you share with us all! It's been invaluable to me!

I got off track and will get back on with reducing sugar and dropping weight. I pretty much asked my doctor to stop prescribing pills and orient me toward lifestyle changes. Your videos are a great information source for me. And frankly, it would be great if you would respond to some confusing information coming from your peer online doctors. One doctor who’s 104 said to stop consuming milk, butter, cheese, etc. Contrasting that, another doctor said to consume them. My problem is that now it’s like a lot of them are just opining, but not collaborating. I’d like to see you cover a couple conflicting and confusing topics by conflicting doctors and help us discern between these opinions.
