I am 72 female with a family history of severe depression and bipolar disorder. In addition, type 2 diabetes is rampant in my family. I have been exercising almost daily for over 35 years. Exercise has been my savior. I've never needed medication to manage my depression and thankfully, I am healthy.

I also self medicated with exercise in my 20s. Kept me from self harm I'm pretty sure. The gym and dancing my ass off every Thursday, Friday, Saturday with my sister on the Square 😂. I was so damn fit.... I've become more sad and chaotic and realized I almost never exercise anymore. Just work, ruminate, sleep, cry... I have gained 30lbs in the last 3 yrs. Kicking it into gear NOW.

[@gioxpfr]

I started Keto about 2 months ago. Then saw videos on Carnivore diet. I saw JP's video on Joe Rogan about his experience on the Carnivore diet. Also his daughter's video. I've been following Dr Chaffee, Dr Ken Burns, and Dr Shawn Baker. Also a regular guy tracking his personal experience with Carnivore at Homestead Now on KZbin. They convinced me to try it. I'm having the same experience as JP on it. I'm almost 60. My energy level is through the roof. I'm power walking every day. I've hit the gym 3 days this week lifting weights like a 20yr old. I haven't felt like this in about 20 years. I just had lab work done and everything was great. I'm type 2 diabetic and have struggled keeping my A1C below 8.5. My medicine wasn't doing it. Now I'm 5.5 in the normal range. My triglycerides were about 300. Now around 100. The only thing out of range was my B12. It was high which the doc said was not bad. I'm usually very low in B12. I'm feeling so good now. I had fibromyalgia, arthritis. After working out to my max on everything, I'm not sore at all. Joints and muscles feel great. I've eaten a few carbs here and there and when I do, it has a very noticeable negative effect on my body in a very short time. Bloating, gas, reflux, heartburn, tired. My sinuses have been crystal clear. Last night I had some of a dish with noodles and an hour later, my sinuses got stopped up and I was coughing up a ton of mucous. I've put my dog on carnivore too. A 7yr old black lab who was very overweight, always hungry, had bad joint pains, very sluggish. She shed hair like crazy and had a lot of eye goop every day in both eyes. I feed her bacon and eggs, Ribeyes. We walk every day. She has literally lost half her weight and looks like she did when she was a puppy. She's full of energy now. No joint pain. She can jump and run again. No more eye goop and shedding is almost stopped. She's a very happy pup and doesn't beg me for food all day. No more kibble for her. No more dog food with plants in it anymore. She's getting the proper diet. As for cost, we both are eating much less so I think it all evens out. I'm planning on coming off all meds soon. All supplements too. Just red fatty meat. Beef!

[@Sma-c3o]

That's awesome, I'm just a week into an all meat diet hoping for your success.

[@darinweets3281]

I was inspired to try carnivore by JP too. I started June 6th, 2023. I weighed 430 lbs, had depression and anxiety. I didn't know I had those symptoms, I only knew I was fat and tired. Today I am 279 lbs and have energy to do what I want and more importantly I have the drive to do what I need. It has changed my life completely and I thank Jesus for this newest chapter in my life.

[@poptarget]

You're right about the mucous. I started keto 2 months ago. I don't get the mucous build up in the throat and have to clear my throat for an hour after, like I did after eating pasta, or bread or pastries, for example.

[@BeefNEggs057]

After a second viewing of this excellent podcast and hearing Dr Attia say that exercise is the most important element of health on longevity I can't help but think that we should promote dance for a whole variety of reasons from preschool to retirement home. Dance teaches coordination, burns calories, increases cardio vascular output, promotes cooperation, provides socialization and is fun. It has spin off benefits for music and musicians and costume designers. It's adaptive to all ages and abilities from recreational to competetive. Dance covers it all.

At 50, I was convinced to become a vegan to preserve my perfect health and excellent fitness, following a successful solo bike tour of the US Pacific coast. My physique was better than I was at 18, and I was in great shape as a very active teen. 7 years of vegan dieting destroyed my life, my body, and my health. First signs were arthritis, Lupus. Then skin disorders, vision problems, muscle mass loss, joint pains, and nervous twitches. Hashimoto's Disease followed. Night sweating. constipation. tinnitus. I double-downed on my vegan diet, fully convinced I was doing the best for myself. I developed insulin resistance/per-diabetes, triple-vision. I was literally legally blind. I couldn't ride a bike, barely able to drive a car safely. I had Cushings Syndrome. gastro-intestinal disorders, rectal bleeding. I had insomnia, and would pass out after I ate. And I at 4-6x a day, feeling a need to snack as I got hungry after main meals. My hair was falling out. I had periodontal disease with bleeding gums and I lost a molar! I was 57, looked 67, and felt like 77. My skin hung off my limbs. My rear end is totally gone, all the muscle. It hurts to sit for a long time. I was prepared to kill myself just to end the suffering and deterioration. Then I contracted Omicron and suffered it for a week. I recovered quickly and it changed my mental state. I was fed up with my condition. Then I discovered your daughter's TedX video on her journey and struggle and her Lion Diet. I jumped head on into carnivore diet. I began eating beef after a 10 year absence. Red meat, eggs, cheeses. Cut sugars, reduced starches/carbs, limited most produce and fruit. No potatoes, no coffee, no vegetable oils. The transformation in 3 months was remarkable! During my vegan diet, I gained 6 inches to my waist of visceral fat. 37+" and dropped to 31" waistline. All of my visceral fat is gone. My hair grew back thick, my vision improved, my arthritis disappeared, and my gums stopped bleeding. I slept better, my mental state improved dramatically. I'm still on my road to recovery. But without Mikhaila Peterson's efforts, none of this would have happened. And for that, I'm so grateful to your family. Keep up with your important and needed good work.

[@jeffreydaniels7519]

I’m a 62 year old man, I have loved this lovely, extremely informative vlog with this gentleman. I have decided several years back never to retire but instead do menial tasks most men my age would rarely still do and strike a balance that keeps me energetic and young in spirit. My routine is waking up at 4:00 a.m. green juice, red juice, supplements. Dry brushing for the lymphatic health. Prayers of gratitude, shower, shave then walking 1.5 miles to the gym where I put in a vigorous workout rotation between HIT or high-intensity trading and weight lifting. Then I walk to work across the street where I prep food, cook, do dishes, mop and sweep everyday. My employer schedules me for 6 hour days but gives me the option to do more if I want, and often do. After years of this I have never called in sick, never showed up or called in late and almost consider my two consecutive days off enough of a vacation for me. I eat what I want but find that this lifestyle creates a greater momentum towards healthier foods. I can drink or smoke cigars if I want to but get greater enjoyment doing much less, like once or twice a month. I have always woke up early and made my bed ever since I was young. My son who is now 28 is also an inspiration to me by following my path to greater health by passing me up in almost every way. God Bless you Jordan Peterson for being the man you are. And the strength and fortitude to challenge the ensuing madness!

Another antidotal: been on Carnivore for 3 weeks, wife on Keto the same. We have both stopped snoring, I’ve lost 10 lbs, my wife 5 lbs, my wife stopped using insulin as her fasting was the same as if she had taken her Lantis… pain in my kidneys, back, knees, is GONE, my memory has suddenly become really sharp… holy smokes! The changes are astounding and really quick! I have this strange quietness that has come over my whole body… I notice it especially when I am going to bed. I used to twitch and feel sudden jolts that made we always feel on edge. After about 3 days in, I noticed it and I almost cried. I told my wife it felt as if I was a little kid or something long lost that I felt in my body! Also, chill emotions… no dips or hangry episodes. Total lack of hunger throughout the day… knowing that I can eat anytime my snacks of cheese and meat sticks. Oh, and I stopped farting! Oh! And reduced my bms from 5-6 a day to one! WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON?! I feel so good!! Aaaaaaaaaaaa!!!😂

[@tonkajahari3010]

This is good information. I’m a trainer/nutritionist and I use a habit-based approach with my clients, as well. It usually starts with morning cardio. Doesn’t matter how long. Literally 2min is fine. Just DO that and build the habit. Having done that every morning, you set yourself up psychologically to be more likely to modify your other behaviors throughout the day. “I worked out today” is already programmed into your mind as a pre-script for your other decisions. That’s a huge modifier on your day. “What’s for lunch? I worked out today, so I should go for a chicken salad instead of a sandwich. Maybe I’ll eat it outside and get a little walk while I’m on break.” Little daily victories build massive results over time.

[@PantheraOnca60]

Right there with you. I'm 62 years old and one of the best habits I ever cultivated as a teenager, coming out of high school sports, was exercise.

I had lots of different health issues including gastric reflux disease, insomnia, depression, lathargy, daily headaches, gum disease, and overall unhealthiness. Since Ive been on the carnivore diet for 2 years now, ALL of my health issues/symptoms have disappeared.

And forgetting to savour the small gifts that we busily pass by each day: the fragrance of the flowers on the corner before you reach the train station on the way to work; the warmth of the winter sun kissing your skin in the morning; the birds drinking nectar from a blossom that you don't know the name of (and it doesn't matter really, it only matters that you notice it); the sunset that is a work of art sometimes days in a row; grabbing someone's hand and twirling in the light summer rain just because; helping a stranger when no one else noticed their struggles; stopping to listen to small children playing and giggling and actually acknowledging the true miracle of life from whence we all came; and savouring a bite of food that someone went to the trouble of making with their own hands sometimes over a number of hours and just enjoying the flavours, absorbing the love that came with the preparation and giving of that food, and the sharing of that food with another whether in peaceful silence or animated conversation.

It is important to understand that 'once you know you can't unknow what you now know" and each of us have a responsibility to take action and engage in supporting ourselves and each other to accomplish applying the knowledge you have just delivered. May our Heavenly Father continue to bring to the world what you are compelled to tell. Truth tellers are rare and more rare is the celebration of truth tellers/watchmen on the wall. I celebrate you and the influence you have. I celebrate you and the love you demonstrate to your fellow man/woman. Keep at it Sir and shalom to you and your family in the full sense of the meaning of that word.

I work in an office and don't have many opportunies to for movement or exersise. Because f this I adjusted my daily routine to wake up much ealier than I expected to and get 90 mintes in before work 3-5 times a week. I have been doing this for the last 7 months and everything in my life has improved. I have more energy, I drink less booze. I care about what I eat, and make sure its organic and BPA free packaging. I cut out all juices and sugary drinks. I have never felt so good.

The timeline of 83 to 93 wrt my family and descendants is mind blowing. I'm so happy I watched the interview to the end. It will take me time to digest this new perspective.

[@MarkRobinson-yk2cr]

Dr Peterson Thank you for the fantastic work that you do, especially in regards to mental health and physical health. I would also like to add your political views aren't far off the mark either. Dr Peterson, approximately 5 years ago I was just a journeyman carpenter, and was ready to auto delete. Thankfully while perusing KZbin looking for something tuthful and informative I stumbled on one of your videos. Dr Peterson you saved my life and my family's forever. I am eternally grateful for all the hard work that you do, God bless you and your family Dr Peterson.Not just a Carpenter Truly Mark G Robinson

I know and have known quite a few people in their 70's though to others well into their 90's who have not had cancer, diabetes or problems with heart disease, and in part it's luck and good genetics, but they also garden every day, grow all their own food and I think that combination of diet and exercise makes a huge difference. My neighbour who passed away a few years ago (I attended his 70th wedding anniversary) was a short stocky man, built like an ox and had been a farmer all his life. Very nice man, open minded, and kept a beautiful garden and vegetable patch. He'd weave beautiful baskets for harvesting his produce and was still climbing into trees to get the fruit, and chopping and loading up wood for the winters up until the age of 95. His children then put him in a home, and he tried to kill himself a couple of times because he couldn't stand it. He passed away at 98, and his wife at 97, in part as a consequence of a fall. They'd lived through wwII, experienced severe food shortages and lost friends and relatives in a local massacre where over 600 men women and children were rounded up, shot and burnt to death.

It's tragic that people just stick parents into homes. I don't understand it, an Di don't even much like my parents, honestly, but even I would take them in of need be.

[@davidwhelan8550]

​@@madeleinegrayson8372I've come to the realization that if we live long enough, if we lose our mobility or cognitive ability, we will be turned over to people and facilities who's objective is to keep us alive at all costs. I think we need to personally learn how to die as well as how to live. How many people have we seen live through a good heart attack or case of cancer only to live out their last years in abject misery and lack of dignity being kept alive. That seems depressing, but goes along with what the speaker is saying about length of healthy life vs length of life. I hope I learn this and am able to do it right.

@55:35 "hyperpalatable foods that hijack your appetite" in any food groups thatll lead to overeating. 100% agree. I was obese and couldnt control myself until i stopped eating those types of foods. Great video. Great content.

9 months ago I was having extreme joint pain in my shoulder and also was always so tired and depressed. I heard about the carnivore diet and how it could reduce pain I decided to give it a try. I can say with great confidence I no longer have the extreme pain and other health and mental issues have disappeared. I feel amazing and have energy like never before. Firm believer in eating meat for health.

How did you do it? Did you just letf behind all the foods except meat? I would like to give it a try

[@onecarnivore]

Very interesting talk with Dr. Attia. I have his new book and looking forward to reading it. It’s curious that he seems a little resistant to a carnivore way of eating, calling it "restrictive” and he kept referring back to Keto diets. It's not restrictive, unless you are dealing with a food addiction. Dr. Peterson is the perfect person to bring up the reality that 1000's of anecdotal examples become a hypothesis (1:06:00). Certainly 1000's of anecdotal examples are more scientific than nutritional epidemiology (which is used by many health "experts"). A little disheartening to hear Dr. Attia say the number one, most important objective to improving health is exercise. He said “the numbers point back to exercise.” While it is definitely important, I think many people would put nutrition at the top f the list. If you do a little exercise and only eat well you will probably be doing better than someone that eats mostly processed junk and exercises all the time. Overall a good discussion. Some good books on the metabolic topics covered: Alzheimers/Depression/Mental issues - “Brain Energy”, by Christopher Palmer MD IBS/UC/Colitis/Colon Cancer - “Fiber Menace”, by Konstantin Monastyrsky Insulin Resistance - “Why We Get Sick”, by Benjamin Bikman PhD Food Industry Influence - “The Big Fat Lie”, by Nina Teicholtz

More needs to be said about the interactions between stress and blood glucose. I was eating a perfect ketogenic diet, exercising moderately, and STILL not entering ketosis because my cortisol levels were elevating my blood glucose. I stayed the same weight despite eating 100% in the ketogenic ranges and maintaining a 500 Cal/day deficit.

[@DudewheresmyKar98]

Can you explain how it is possible for you to have normal blood glucose, let alone eleveated glucose in your blood if you are eating a ketogenic diet? If you don't eat carbohydrates, you'll end up producing ketones. So it sounds like you have not been eating a diet capable of helping you be ketogenic. Additionally, because you are so stressed... it sounds like you are defficient in some vitamins and minerals, and/or are ingesting some sort of poison or not exercising.

[@jhammond2237]

Could also be due to hypothyroidism

[@Arggggggggg]

​​​@@DudewheresmyKar98 gluconeogenesis. Your liver turns protein to glucose. And cortisol inhibits insulin, that's how glucose could get elevated. 1:09 he talks about if you overdo it and eat over your limit in keto.

[@m3po22]

@@DudewheresmyKar98 Why would you assume something like vitamin deficiency? Is it impossible for someone to just have a really stressful 2 weeks? It's weird to encounter someone so confidently ignorant of psychophysiology in a Peterson comment section. You really think the mind floats above the body as a separate entity? As Peterson mentions sometimes, highly conscientious people get anxiety when they're not being productive. My anxiety is at its peak when I'm speaking publicly at an event I don't even want to be at. There are high social stakes, _and_ I'm wasting time. From the time I agree to speak until a few minutes afterwards, I dread it, can't sleep as well, crave junk food like crazy, and other symptoms of chronic stress. Even living in the wrong place can screw up your health. I spent a month living with my parents when I was 29. Everything about it sucked. The environment, what it meant for my life, and the financial risk I was taking. I had just bought a house that it turns out I couldn't sleep in because of allergies from the previous owner's dogs. My life was simultaneously pathetic and stressful. I could occasionally relax, but this is when that 2-week period occurred. Yes, I was exercising, as I already said. My blood sugar was around 80 one night (continous glucose monitor) when I heard my nephew upstairs, who was visiting and is always very rambunctious. In about 5-10 minutes my blood sugar went from 80 to above 120 while I was just sitting there, because of the anxiety. I've had other times where I didn't even restrict calories and ended up losing 20-30 pounds. Stress is the most important factor for me.

[@kevinwaterman4207]

If you have a 500 calorie a day deficit for an extended period of time without losing weight that would indicate that you don't actually have a 500 calorie diet. If you burn more than you consume that has a hard cold arithmetic to it as serious as starvation. That's not discounting, of course, that a stressed body does hold onto a higher proportion of extra calories compared to a healthy body. Your overall point is a good one but you shouldn't feel like normal health laws just don't apply to you because that could lead to you feeling hopeless.

[@LeTumes]

I remember Simon Sinek using a good argument. He said something along the lines of: You dont get clean teeth by brushing them for 2 hours straight. You get clean teeth from brushing them 2 minutes twice a day every day. You dont get in shape by going to the gym for 8 hours straight. You get in shape by working out 30-60 minutes a day every day. To me that means, that you cannot force, any radical change upon your body, but rather change the routines of which you conduct your life.

[@ghostfox3560]

I think I may end up with a need to make a book shelf with all the authors you interview. Glad I can benefit from your conversations, Dr. Peterson

I have had similar experiences as Dr Peterson. I started a no grain, no sugar, no wheat no corn diet in 2015, I have Hashimoto's disease and at that time was wheing 400lb. I lost 180 pounds the first year and a half.. reversed a lot of symptoms like, constant alergies, cystic breast, my Hashimoto's symptoms, like inflammation, brain fog.. my liver got healthier.. I cannot say enough good things for a more ketogenic diet..
