Okay, today I was praying about how much protein I needed, and I stumbled on your video. I have low thyroid, and have been so confused about how much protein I needed and wasted money on protein powders when I could have been investing in more high quality proteins. Everyone says 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight which was so hard for me. Please make more videos on how your wife healed her low thyroid. I have questions about fasting with low thyroid, and how to workout with low thyroid. My sleep and muscle building have been affected by this issue. Thank you for your videos. They are a blessing.

YESSSSS!!!! I had a full blown argument with someone about this. I kept telling them no matter the amount of protein , it just leans me out it doesn’t make me gain weight. They said it’s impossible because of gluconeogenesis. I said that’s not what I’m experiencing. So i eat a lot of protein. Not too too much but I don’t worry about it at all.

Thank you for this really interesting video. It confirms why I feel so great since I am on the carnivore diet. I eat only grass fed beef, sea salt and spring water. I have been keto for a year, and switched to carnivore since your video on this topic. I tried it for 3 weeks, but stayed carnivore since then, because it really works for me : mind clarity, sleep, no craving at all for any other food than meat, feeling satisfied (first time in my life that I can say beetween meals that I am not hungry) and no bloating, skin, nails, weight lost, more energy, so I started working out at home. And my life is so simple now! I am enjoying every minute of it! I guess the quantity of proteins is different for someone on carnivore diet, because I eat around two pounds of meat every day, as all women do on carnivore diet. No more need to calculate macros or calories. So simple! Just eat meat when hungry, until satisfied. I love it!!! 🙂

[@mhendrix8143]

Thank you for this. I am estrogen dominant and have been for many years. As a result I have under active thyroid. I also have endometriosis and they all tie in together. Your videos have helped me find the right supplements and make dietary changes.

just turned 28 and have been struggling with belly fat since my young years. Have been doing fasting since 2011 full stop on my periods but lost all the excess weight and still going strong. As I get older though I have noticed it's becoming even easier for me to gain weight and keep it off. since the pandemic I have started doing 24/1 method and a 48 hour fast once a week. It helps but also sucks to see my coworkers eating constantly but not be fat. I probably have a messed up everything but I am still here so I guess I am not at a total loss.

But!!! Seed cycling! Estrogen dominance, so to speak, is normal in the follicular phase.and progesterone dominance in the luteal. So taking omega 3s and 6s is dependent on your cycle! I had crazy depressive PMS till I found that omega 3s at the wrong time was getting my progesterone levels lower relative to estrogen... which is bad in the luteal phase! Flax and pumpkinseed meal in the follicular phase, sunflower and sesame in the luteal. Cod liver oil in the folliculr, evening primrose in the luteal. SEED CYCLING. Look it up, ldies. I cut my symptoms down to maybe half a day of PMS and way less breast pain, joint pain, physical symptoms in general. Estrogen vs progesterone is, in my understanding, is the RATIO that creates our bodily changes during the menstrual cycle. Amazing that further research just hasn't been done... but there you have it :|
