Concealed Proper Human Diet, Q&A with Ken Berry, MD

[@Mrs.TJTaylor]

I am old. Ketovore ended my aches and pains 100% I thought I had arthritis or had just worn out my bones and tendons and joints or some such thing. But no! It was the inflammation caused by my SAD. I’m jumping out of bed in the morning like a 12 year old now. Not kidding. NOTHING HURTS.

[@user-tv4oc5ox9h]

Same! I went carnivore and within 3 days my knees stopped hurting and eczema started clearing up.

[@DodgeChic69]

That's amazing. Congratulations 👏 please keep telling your story so that others will learn ..thank you so much for sharing❤️❤️❤️

I have so much energy now because i'm not always fighting pain.

[@rosemarykelley3078]

Awesome! Congratulations!!

[@MsKariSmith]

I got the flu on Jan.. 1 and couldn't eat anything. So the first 4 or 5 days, I had pain from fever, AND...withdrawal from carbs. & sugar. It was too awful for words. But, after about day 5, all my inflammation from arthritis in my joints & lower back pretty much were gone. I am now totally carnivore, I even made some butter bites today. I am still sleeping a lot, but that is probably from 20 years of very poor sleep from sleep apnea, so I am catching up. I am 70, had a lifetime of stress and so on. I am now finally going to continue to be good to myself. After all, if I don't ...who will??? Thanks for listening.

I remember when there were still cashiers employed at walmart. It took them forever to ring up my food items because I literally had every type of vegetable in the produce section in my cart. And they couldn't identify half the stuff. I almost never ate meat! Now, its nothing but red meat , ,butter and eggs. I pray that this is healthy in the long run, because I'm all in!!

[@modelsupplies]

I got my A1C down to 5.3 from 6.8 with keto and intermittent fasting. My doctor actually warned me not to get it too much lower or I’d be hypoglycemic! I laughed and said that’s not how it works. She’s young and fresh out of the system.

I'm 3 weeks into my carnivore journey eating nothing but beef, butter bacon and eggs and water (with the odd cup of English tea now and again) not losing much weight though but I have had bowel cancer and half of my bowel cut out (r/h hemicolectomy with 8 months of chemo because they presumed I was stage 4 but I'm still here 👍😁) .

[@susanswinny588]

72 years old. I did have treatment resistant clinical depression and anxiety, especially in my late 40s and was on antidepressants, mood stabilizers, ECT for 20 years. I also gained 130 pounds from depression meds that didn't help me much. So I went off the meds, weaned over 11 months in 2016. I wasn't very well for 3-4 years, but gradually became better through meditation, exercise, weight loss on Mediterranean diet, and fasting. Fasting gave me a really great feeling, but as soon as I started refeeding, the great feeling went away. Then I retired 6 months ago, still losing weight, lifting weights, walking. So I was on a Mediterranean diet during my weight loss, but it's really slowed down. So I considered animal based diet after watching you on YT. After reading Brain Energy by Chris Palmer MD, And seeing him on your podcast, I thought keto diet was definitely worth a shot. I took a couple of months to get rid of the fruits and starches from my diet. I'm down to 30-50g carbs a day. OMG! I read that a lot of people feel better, but my energy, gut and brain are feeling the best in maybe my entire life! I believe I was eating way too much fruit because I was already on a whole foods diet: no oil, no flour, no sweeteners of any kind. Just had my annual physical. My triglycerides dropped by half to 79. My A1C is 5.2 (no change). My bp is 110/75 to 120/80. I no longer feel occasional dizziness which I believe was due to low blood sugar at times. I can walk briskly 3 miles a day. I do eat organic plain greek yogurt from the grocery store, blueberries, low carb veg, no fruit except a little avocado. I eat NY strip, bison, bacon, salmon, shrimp, poultry. My plan is to try carnivore in a couple of months after the beginning of 2025. So thank you for your great show! Thanks for having Chris Palmer MD and Georgia Ede MD on!

[@donlew8222]

Having all the same great results! Low carbs, no sugars. 4 weeks in. Lost 25 lbs, but has begun to stall. Keeping the course!

[@RandomHuTaoSimp]

You havent actually stalled. Youve just dropped all the water weight. Now you are mostly tapped into fat and that burns off far slower than water weight. Stick with it and just be patient!

[@karenreaves3650]

I ran into one of those surgeons and disagreed with him. He fired me and kindly referred me to a great Dr who agreed with me, no surgery needed on my broken middle finger, bone chip could cause my my middle to heal permanently straight. 😂 She explained his desperate situation, having no insurance, his wife having cancer.

[@terrykohlman7355]

After doing mostly Ketovore and a bit of Carnivore for the last year I can say now that all my knee pains are no longer a bother to me. They are just gone. It's amazing what eating a PHD can do for a human body. I also have MS and I've had a case of nuisance bladder cancer (free of that for the last 4 years) and I'm sure this style of eating is helping those issues also. I will be fueling my body with this way of eating for the rest of my life. There will be "NO GOING BACK" to a SAD diet for me. When life changing diseases happen, making the change is easy. It took me about 3 weeks to become adapted and now I don't even think about it anymore. My wife has joined me in this journey, and we now eat about 1.5 meals per day average. I fast about once a month for 24 hours all the way up to 66 hours, which is my personal best so far. THANK YOU Dr. Berry and Niesha for all you guys do for us humans! Niesha's cornbread recipe is the BEST thing you can consume.

[@terrykohlman7355]

Also our food costs have dropped due to not buying all the crap processed foods that we used to buy, and we are eating steaks on a regular basis. We can be in and out of the food store in about 15 minutes now, and be done shopping for the entire week.

@@brucemaher7621 I've never been a big meat eater and the first 8 months I wasn't eating a lot of protein.

I was surprised at how satiated I felt after it. Recently I had a couple of days when I missed breakfast (an egg, seeds and nuts) and only had meat for lunch and dinner (I have been getting some RUQ pain after overdoing the nuts - I'm getting a CT scan done this week) and I was amazed and how much I enjoyed it.

@@jesterflight8593 lower your insulin by lowering your carb intake to nothing. personally I went carnivore. I tried to go keto but it's popular to make it needlessly complex. I thought carnivore was simple keto but I didn't eat enough fat. Still worked for me. Beef, eggs sardines butter water. I also ate other fish, chicken hotdog weenues etc. Coffee tea. At the time eggs were cheap. But I basically took half a dozen hamburger patties and a few boiled eggs a day. With salt. Cheap stuff. Now I eat some chuckroast hamburger patties and weenues from the house and McDonald's or Wendy's hamburger patties when out. I don't tolerate pork well yet so I didn't mention bacon or sausage or ham. . Going carnivore is short form for not eating any sugar. Wheat Fruit aka sugar Anything that might cause a reaction. This will cause most withdrawal from sugar addiction. Sugar had the whole addiction thing down like heroine or nicotine dependence . Whenever I went through my withdrawal it was summer and I worked testing fresh asphalt on roadways in Carolina. Testing asphalt does include a lot of walking and sweat. So that's a caveat. I'd been on the job with the fatty liver symptom . I put that out there to warn my water intake was a lot. I drank steadily from waking and would drink a gallon of water before eating around lunchtime for the first time of the day. That' much water is not for everybody but it helped me with my withdrawal from sugar by not having me associating thirst with sweet drinks. Butter salt and pepper make coffee a different drink than cream and sugar. Earl grey tea is a caffeine source that's awesome with butter salt and pepper. Tastes better than coffee. Various herbal teas. I did wrong by just eating meat and eggs. My fat intake was too low. But I was eating so much better than I had been my pains associated with fatty liver disappeared. I'd been getting pain in my right arm and skin tags. Bonus my allergies stopped. I didn't have to take antihistamines or decongestants and my knees quit hurting. Prologue. I have had some relapse onto wheat and sugar. Those cause pain similar to alcohol hangover. Kinda sucks. High dose vitamin c, zinc, magnesium help me get through those hangover days. I found I dropped like ten pounds of inflammation in a few days. I can that inflammation weight very quickly. The weight doesn't matter. The inflammation does. I'm inflamed right now on a carb bender. My back hurts so I'm admonished to get back on my carnivore. I've eaten carbs whenever I'm tired and not thinking good. Or my kid asked for something and coparenting quagmire. But carbs bring physical pain. Weird. I never did cocaine or heroine but I understand self destructive behavior better now. If your lifestyle is such that you can regularly sleep with normal meal times and access to a toilet because detoxification is has to go somewhere, you'll be amazed. Oh and enlarged prostate is inflammation. Fixing the inflammation is like you didn't know you felt as bad as you did. Like we're taught to play through injury and pain. It's almost weird to feel good.

Dr Berry , we appreciate your work and bringing Dr. Seyfried on as a guest. We have been on the diet you recommend for several years. Actually since we got married back in 90. It wasn’t what I wanted but when you marry joggers, who had a minor in dietetics and went to two years of pre med before going to optometrist school. Today she’s managing her younger brother’s pancreatic cancer and given him Fenbenzadol along with Ivermectin. His oncologist says she seldom ever sees cancer die back but has taken him off Chemo. My wife tried her best to talk his kids out of pushing their dad into taking Chemo but was unsuccessful. Its hard to say right now but it looks like he will succumb to the chemo. We could not get him to listen or use our diet though he was healthy and not overweight. Because he worked out daily his sister (my wife) thought he was able to game the system of a high sugar diet with excessive exercise but if he lives I bet he eats like her older sister suggested. We are praying that we can help him pull through the chemo and if he does it will be a miracle. Watching what the chemo did to him in a matter of a couple weeks was almost impossible to watch. We believe the medical industrial complex has no interest in making people well. Fauci woke us up to this. Hopefully he pulls through it. If not we’ll know next time. PS we raise our own cattle and keep a couple to grow on out when we pull them off winter pasture for selling to the big feedlots. We do not agree with the way meat is fed out but the way the business is set up we can’t do it any other way but for our house we eat an half Herford half angus heifer that almost three years old when we take them to the Shamrock TX packing house for processing. Its a small family owned locker plant that does a very good job of following orders and packaging the meat the way we like it. 1.5” thick steaks and 90/10 hamburger. We know it is wrong according to the doc but we prefer lean beef. We have perfect numbers and perfect labs and take no scripts so something is working.

5:30 you know what's expensive? Healthcare. What's even more expensive? Not being able to achieve your goals or live the life you want because even if you can afford healthcare, you still live out your life just _managing_ an increasing number of chronic conditions as they get worse and worse. I see people around me doing it. It's tragic.

From what I'm hearing watching lots of videos it's the Trig HDL ratio which is important. From website docsopinion: If lipid values are expressed as mg/dl (like in the US); TG/HDL-C ratio less than 2 is ideal. I calculated yours at 1.76.

I have gallstones, now they only hurt when I eat a couple more carbs then normal, it used to hurt when I ate fatty meat. Once I transitioned over to ketovore and the initial gallpain stopped it is way easier to control, so we will see how long I can keep it going without removal.

[@rlweidner6656]

If you are eating real food.. mostly fatty meat you’ll be full more quickly. Made two hamburger patties for dinner and I cannot finish the second one. I’m full and I won’t even want anything else tonight. Real food is satiating! Follow the gal under “carnivorous me “ she is a great resource for overeating and how to overcome this.

[@Pinkorchid72]

If you eat a fatty ribeye you will get the slight nausea feeling which signals that you are done.

[@tracybroadrick3723]

Thanks RL and PinkOrchid.

[@Pinkorchid72]

@@tracybroadrick3723 you’re welcome. We’ve all had to relearn our hunger and fullness signals as we transition to carnivore. Keep close attention to how you feel as you eat your meals. Being carnivore, eating meat means we chew our food for longer, too. So it’s ample time to pay attention to what our bodies are signaling to us AA we approach satiety levels.

[@jennie9]

I'm also someone who overeats and didn't know what comfortably full meant. I started by eating until I felt nauseous. Then I forced myself to eat more slowly by doing things like counting how many times I chewed and putting my utensils down between bites. That gave my body and mind more time to register how I felt. Over time, I was able to figure out where the shift from comfortable to uncomfortable was for me. The amount I eat to get that feeling has decreased over time and varies depending on what I'm eating. I disagree with the poster who said that Amanda from Carnivorous Me is a good person to watch to learn about this feeling. Don't get me wrong. I think she's great. But she has said that she stops eating when she's not hungry anymore. To me, that sounds different than eating until comfortably full, although maybe it actually ends up being the same thing in reality.

Hi Dr. Berry. I am a 74 year old woman. You were talking about over cleaning your face. All my life I never ever used any harsh skin cleaners on my face. I most of the time have used a damp wash cloth, and all of my adult life I had beautiful skin. Also I never ever used make up, Even at my age now I have nice smooth skin and I have much less wrinkles than the average 70+ person. I can sit in a crowd of 60 year old people and I am always shocked that I look so much younger than they do. I contribute a healthy looking skin to my diet. I eat some fat (butter, and lard) daily, also I eat fruits, vegetables and one serving of bread for my evening meal. I raise my vegetables without any insecticides etc. I eat only small amount of meats. I have never deficient in vitamins and minerals, also I do not eat many sweets they are yuk yuk to me. I don't have diabetes, obesity, nor any of the common senior illnesses. I do have MS, RA, and high blood pressure (controlled). I believe my diet has protected my heart and brain and collesteral etc. I never drank alcohol, nor have I ever smoked. and for the most part I feel reasonable even with MS which makes one feel crappy a lot. If you liked anything in this information you have my permission to use it. Jessie from Arkansas

My mother is 76 years old and has the most pretty smooth skin. She is Native American and very beautiful. But she has worn makeup for 60 years-wont go out of the house without it haha. So I think it's more genes than what you eat or do to your face.

I was diagnosed type 2 diabetic in 1994 and started a low carb diet recommended by my doctor. Have done well as long as I stay on it There are many variations of low carbohydrate diet. Carnivore is one of many. Nothing new here.

I wish that all KZbin channels that advocate keto/ketovore and carnivore WOE would all carry a warning for people predisposed to develop histamine intolerance. (Many people with fibromyalgia are particularly histamine sensitive, for example.) In its severe form, it's really quite debilitating, as I unfortunately found out after just a few months on ketovore, followed by less than a week of carnivore.

Been eating Carnivore/keto for 20 days. I’m down 12lbs so far and feel great. Less back pain, great digestion. I am having a problem with bad headaches in the afternoons/evenings. The only thing that seems to make them go away is a snack with 5-7 carbs. My carbs have been about 20g daily. I am well hydrated and use an electrolyte supplement. Thinking to increase carbs to 30g daily until my body adjusts. Any advice is appreciated.

How does nutrition differ depending on the age of the animal? Are young animals more nutritious to eat for humans? Are older animals more nutritious? How do the differences shake out? Is there research on this topic? If the animals could live long full lives then the ethical advantage of vegetarianism largely disappears, does it not? From an ethical standpoint I would prefer to eat animals from a farm that let them live long lives ended by natural causes. What is your take on this from a nutritional standpoint?

I have a question for Dr. Berry. My husband is 73 and had a heart attack several years ago and they put in 2 stents. In Dec of 21 he had a TIA stroke. We were lucky it did not do major damage. His heart doctor did a heart cath and told us there was nothing he could do as far as stents so he was going to treat him with meds. His ejection fraction was 25% when he started the med. He put him on Entresto and after 3 months he went in for a heart ultrasound and his ejection had gone up to 35%. He goes back then end of this month but seems to be doing good. The doctor did tell him no salt because of fluid retention. My question is we are eating Keto and trying to stay under 20 carbs a day and want to go Carinvore but we are both concerned about his health. We do not want to make it worse. We both feel so much better right now. I have not heard this problem addressed before and I trust your opinion if you could kindly address this on a video or maybe someone in the comments has been in this situation.

[@joecamel6835]

I haven't had the stroke part but have had 2 heart attacks and stents .The heart fraction often goes back up some naturally so it may not be that medicine that did that , then again it might have helped ( I personally doubt it) .As far as fluid retention coffee is a big cuprit, sadly .Carnation light start and Boost glucouse formula are loaded with nutrients and 15 grams of carbs .

[@patriciadowd2948]

@@joecamel6835 My husband does drink coffee but most of the time only one cup a day sometimes two but he drinks his Black.He started out on the low dose tablet of Entresto and in 3 months had the heart ultrasound and it had gone up so his doctor said he thought he could get it up more and gave him a larger dose of the Entresto so he has been on that for 3 months. We go back in a week and I feel like he will order a new ultrasound to see if their has been improvement. My husband is just worried that the Keto diet with all the meat and fat he is eating is hurting him. Our regular GP doctor is plant based and he says that is the best way of eating for him since he has a heart issue so we are torn as to what to do. I appreciate your comment.

[@patriciadowd2948]

Just a update. We went back to the heart doctor and he was very pleased with my husbands numbers so he said he did not want to see him back for 6 months, My husband had lost weight because we had been on Keto. Blood pressure was great and his heart rate was great, he said keep on doing what he was doing. What was so funny to me is we had a early appointment and the doctor said he was hungry and was ready for a sausage biscuit and I said I was going home to drink a Keto Chow shake and he asked what that was and I told him I was on the Keto diet and he said well he guessed that was fine if you loved only eating meat but he loved the biscuits. These doctors to me just don't get it. My husband and I are feeling so much better and have slowly worked our way to eating Carnivore. I could not get my blood pressure down much just eating a Keto diet and I was borderline diabetic and my blood sugar would not get down to where I needed it to be but since carnivore my blood sugar fasting is below 100 and my blood pressure has come down more. My husband is type 2 and he has cut his metformin in half. The carnivore diet works, I think if you have any health issue you should try it at least for a couple months and if it don't work and you don't get results go back to how you were eating but I think it will help you.
