Carnivore Couldn’t Fix This... My Shocking Bloodwork Results (2 Years Later)

[@SunnyDays00]

You look like this was uncomfortable to share. Very good of you to do it to help people.

[@pamelachappell1089]

I'm so happy that you found something that is helping you. You have done everything you can, and now your body just needs a bit of help. It is absolutely shameful that the companies put all that junk in our food. Good for you for turning your life around. I am cheering you both on.

[@carnivorecouple]

Yes! Thank you!

[@kl3625]

This reminds me of Paul Salidino. That is when he went meat based. Added fruit changed his testosterone. I’m not saying you should do that but it does make me wonder. BTW congrats on your transformation & you twins 🥰

[@Courage10.18]

EXCELLENT message. Thank you for showing how 30 years of franken-food damage cannot always be undone in 1.5 years. SOO much has been undone and reversed back to healthy❤ I can only imagine (because I am a girl😂) how much more effective your TRT is because you have persevered on your health journey. You seriously deserve congratulations on so many levels. Your transparency is so refreshing in this weird cultural environment we are in. Yes there are bumps in the road but you two always fight your way back to center to do the next right thing. Love you for the examples that you are!💖

Wow thank you for the amazing comment. We appreciate the encouragement and these types of comments are the reason we do this! You help us to persevere on our health journey and to keep encouraging our wonderful community. Thank you for being a big part of our journey.

So glad you are on testosterone. My husband is on it also. Doctors are so quick to help men with testosterone issues but they most times refuse to help women with low estrogen and progesterone especially menopausal women. I’m so glad I found a great gynecologist who understands and checks my hormone levels often and prescribes me the dosage that my body needs. Low hormones cause brain fog and exhaustion and depression and low libido and body aches and so much more. Often times doctors tell us it’s all in our heads and they try to give us antidepressants. But it’s truly a physiological thing and more doctors need to educate themselves on this topic. Thank you for sharing. And you are right about all the junk that we’ve eaten all our lives causing so many health issues. God bless you.

[@nancyfahey7518]

Thanks for this info. I'll know what to watch for.

[@Damudean]

Really, glad someone is taking artificial testosterone. And bloodwork doesn’t actually show any illnesses it just helps to distinguish possible problems if you show symptoms?

[@analescano857]

@@Damudean if your blood work if fine and you don’t have symptoms then you don’t need to. By the way my husband and I take bioidentical HRT. ,meaning it’s not synthetic but it comes from an animal and resembles our human hormones.

I noticed that at certain point , you have to add more carbs, I know that from many others, maybe time to add something else. Congrats on twins !!!

[@karendeann72]

I was thinking the same thing. Wasn’t this one reason Paul Saladino added them back in?

[@nancyfahey7518]

No carbs. That's what got us here in the first place.

[@Pl-qq4yl]

Healing rarely happens in 1-2 years honestly. Carnivore is fixing your metabolism and inflammation but sometimes you gotta help the body out more. Saunas, Ozone therapy, IF Saunas, Pro longed fasts, the lists goes on and on. Tons of thinks you might need to add to help get to the next goal.

[@nancyfahey7518]

Yea, I'm waiting. Doing everything right. Day 254. I'll have a great day sprinting, and exercising and I start cleaning this mess of a house but the next 3 days I'm a zombie. I've had lots of healing and have total confidence in this carnivore diet, I'll ask the doc about the hormones and metabolisms.

[@travisbrazeau9455]

Brother I was in the same testosterone levels as you and had the same symptoms I took testosterone and it changed everything

Very interesting informative video... interrupted by AWWW babies, daddy moments, etc!!! 🥰 OK, back to information. I am listening. 😂

[@margmugleston7669]

Glad you're feeling better. Carnivore doesn't cure everything as you've found out. ❤ 🇬🇧 xx

[@CarnivoreDan]

I appreciate your story. I too went on TRT because my energy was tanked and the doctor tested me and said so. It is a game changing wonder drug, and I think "where have you been all my life. " But......I am allowing this temporarily. I am stopping after a few months to gain muscle mass. All drugs are BAD Mmmmkayyy!

[@gonzalezfit2925]

You run risk of forever needing test if you think you can run it for a few months and stop. Seriously do heavy research before you get on test. It’s usually a lifetime commitment or else u run risk of having even lower numbers than when u started

[@CarnivoreDan]

@@gonzalezfit2925 I appreciate your concern but you deserve a heated response. I am aware of the risk , son. I did the research, son. I chose the risk. Will I pay a terrible price? Please. I LOOOVE how the doctors won't hesitate to put you on drugs (like M&Ms) that "you will just have to take this for the rest of your life." Twat ever! What about all the idiots going on Ozempic, are they doing research? Why don't you go troll them? Do they know they will regain all the weight +20% after 2 years(and it will be more fat this time), and will just have to increase dosage and stay on it , like drug addicts? My body will produce testosterone again when it needs to. I eat a proper human diet. I'm older now, and not looking to make babies. I am smart enough to not keep going back to the drug dealer(aka doctor)and getting more tests and taking more drugs and spending more money I don't have . Are you? Is anyone awake out there?

[@Damudean]

Dan I think that person was just saying take care, most of us on this journey, and you obviously do, know the doctors are just drug dealers either white coats.

[@PinkieJoJo]

I think something people have to remember is that no diet can fix everything. Not even carnivore. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

[@NicknamePending]

Looks like you have a home gym. I'd be curious to see a gym tour. My home gym has a really junky bench and I've been looking for a replacement.

[@carnivorecouple]

My “gym” is literally just a pull up/ dip bar, adjustable dumbbells and a bench. It works for what I need right now.

[@jeannedigennaro6484]

I would put this issue down to lack of sleep, anxiety caring for the twins, going down from 300’s to 200’s. Do you supplement with Lugol’s iodine drops which support the thyroid? I’m glad you decided to get help to feel better. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@KCCAT5]

Haha I asked my doctor to check my metabolic out you know fasting insulin and inflammation markers and everything besides cholesterol and sugar and they would not do it. I am now looking for a new doctor

[@sandygentry8455]

It’s hard finding a Dr

[@happyperson8740]

High Intensity Health vlog showed that taking Brazil nuts will up your testosterone. Boy did that work for my 74 year old husband. He has been taking Brazil nuts every day for the past 16 months. It made a lot of difference…better than testosterone therapy. Best of luck!! Use what works for you!!

[@gonzalezfit2925]

Brazil nuts will not bring you from 230 level to 900 level. 😂. We want optimal levels not just barely making it north of the low standard blood level.

[@happyperson8740]

@ Appreciate your comments. Agree that you need to find what works for you. My husband tried the testosterone replacement therapy and it didn’t work. I should note he also has type 2 diabetes. At 74, we will take any improvement. Hope you have a wonderful holiday!

[@blackrhinotattoos]

I was worried when i tested my testosterone and it was low too. I went down the worm hole and saladino and chaffee both say you need to test your testosterone firt thing in the AM and you cannot have sex or workout 48 hours prior. When i followed these guidelines my testosterone doubled.

[@scosoexterior9125]

Cholesterol was so high after a year. Wow!

[@KCCAT5]

This is why Dr kilts recommends the keto carnivore diet for women who cannot get pregnant because the standard American diet messes with your hormone levels I tried to tell my daughter that she's hard-headed

[@gtamantube]

You got the brass ring looks like from here

[@nancyfahey7518]

Did you mention you take iodine? Cause that helped my mental, physical, emotional immediately.

[@Pl-qq4yl]

omg you lost a lot , you look good man !!

[@carnivorecouple]

Thanks!!

[@emeraldkind]

There are studies that show low dose TRT in closer increments is much better that a once a month treatment. If you are doing the once a month treatments please do some research into it and find a doctor that does that style of treatment.

[@carnivorecouple]

I’m currently doing it once per week. 100mg every time. It is working well for me.

[@SunnyDays00]

Adipose tissue is hormonally active.. potentially it interfered with normal hormones..takes time to repair

[@Arguments_only]

too much white adipose tissue causes low grade inflammation that leads to lower Test levels. Also carnivore leads to lower test levels on average as per studies where different diets have been compared. Vegan diet led to increase in test.

[@barbarahuck3136]

Do you take iodine?

[@KCCAT5]

You have a set of twins you testosterone seems to be working okay LOL

[@carnivorecouple]

Fertility and testosterone aren’t correlated.

[@Pl-qq4yl]

what size of jeans was before and after ? I am amazed !

[@carnivorecouple]

42 down to 30

[@travisbrazeau9455]

Be aware that most primary care doctors have no idea what they are talking about when it comes to testosterone levels mine told me I was fine with 250 - 300 ng/dc and that this is normal and it is not so try your primary care doctor and if you get a similar response then find an endocrinologist they know what they are doing when it comes to testosterone

[@BriarRoseA]

Did/do either of you deal with body dysmorphia issues after losing so much weight? Like fear, that the weight loss is a joke, that some day you would wake up and the weight was back, or that you were not doing as well as you are? If so, how do you deal with that?

[@carnivorecouple]

Yes! It is weird. You see yourself in a mirror or a picture and still can’t believe it’s you. You still yourself as obese. It takes a while to get used to it. Also, in constant fear of waking up and all of the weight is back. It’s kind of crazy the mental change that happens.

[@BriarRoseA]

@@carnivorecouple I am SO glad to know it's not just me!!! That is exactly what it's like for me but I am only half way there and currently stuck in a stall after having emergency gallbladder surgery. I think its just a stress thing. But honestly I feel better without the diseased organ. It was beyond saving with Carnivore. I tried for 18 years to save it. But I can definitely say I gave it my all. I am actually already back to eating high fat Carnivore. 😊 Thank you for answering my question. Most appreciated!! Have a Happy New Years! 🎉

[@RC-tm8jo]

I think you have a typo for your 1-year LDL. It says 34 mg/dL. With your total cholesterol below it saying 421 mg/dL, your LDL is likely around 340 mg/dL and not 34 mg/dL.

[@carnivorecouple]

You are correct.

[@fryertuck6496]

Carnivore will boost your T. I can see from your physique that you dont lift heavy, as a man you need that physical stresser.

[@carnivorecouple]

Carnivore did not boost my T. I tried for a long time to get it up with eating strict carnivore and lifting weights.

[@Sirach144]

See, I think my testosterone went way up because my morning erections are now very frequent versus nonexistent before keto.

[@carnivorecouple]

Ya know, I had the same thing happen to me even with low testosterone. Just eating clean can help with overall blood flow and cardiovascular health. If you have other symptoms of low T, get tested. It’s important to get tested even if you don’t have symptoms. Regular and routine bloodwork is important.

[@Sirach144]

@ Even if my testes have increase in size?

[@ZannaTaylor]

i have heard that while we experience great, noticeable changes, all healing takes time as we have overloaded our bodies with processed sugars and toxins that take longer to heal. I'm new to carnivore, and my doc wants me on statins now that my levels went up. ugh

[@cn-123]

Get rid of the herbs on carnivore.

[@carnivorecouple]

Do what works for you. If you can handle seasonings, then it’s fine.

[@verdis5619]

This is why so many young men are wearing dresses, makeup, nail polish etc..

[@languagelynnie]

Microplastics and toxins in our environment can do this.

[@monnoo8221]

you show the total cholestrol after 1 y (@3:10) being 421, while LDL is 34, and HDL is 61. this adds up to a total of at most 110. And that my friend is the bigger problem than your T. Regarding T, total T is anyway not relevant, only free T, which yu do no show. Low total cholesterol, when silymarin supplements would be indicated At 3:20 you say "everything was perfect"... That is a wrong statement. To get cholesterol up, some things can be done: Q10 supplementation, los of nuts, yet only pecan and almonds without skin, butter, 10 eggs per day. After 4 weeks, there should be results visible

[@carnivorecouple]

Woah that was an editing typo. Thanks for catching it. LDL at 1 year was 337. Check out my previous bloodwork video.

[@monnoo8221]

@@carnivorecouple so, in this case the next candidate is chronically low insulin. I would recommend taknig leucin before meals, hwever NOT the full bCAA package, as isoleucin is not beneficial at all, has even bad long tem side effects when taken as supplement. If you can manage the "assault", also 1 banana before meals.can help. Note that carnvore diet is an elimination diet !

[@carnivorecouple]

@ I don’t have low insulin. My fasting insulin is where I want it. I was previously pre diabetic. So there is a drastic change in insulin resistance that I used to have.

[@Arguments_only]

carnivore diet tends to lead to lower Test. There is studies on this, if you care about that. Different diets have been compared and carnivore leads on average to significant decrease in test whereas Vegan leads leads to significant average increase. Why this happens? Who knows, not enough nutrients? meat heavy diet is quite inflammatory so that could play a part? also obesity/poor life style can damage endocrine system which leads to lower test.

[@thefanlot5517]

You are so misguided, meat does not lead to inflamation. Show me the non bias studies leading to lower T on carnivore vs higher T on vegan diet.

[@Daily-Quotes-for-you]

You’re a joke.
