My arthritis pain was in my hips, shoulders, wrists and fingers. I began my Keto journey by following Dr Eric Westman’s protocol in April 2018. Then I found Dr Berry and Dr Nally. The arthritis pain relief is astonishing! However, it will return with vengeance if I eat too many carbs, even if it is “approved “ carbs.

Maybe the each Salvation Army location can take the donations in and flag them in their inventory as "keto". Something here for sure.

I wrecked both my knees in my early 20's skiing, and since then, any stairs or ladder work or long walks and my knees would hurt, and if I persisted the activity they would swell up. I did the glucosamine and chondroitin for years in my 40's but found no relief and used Tylenol with codeine and topical voltaren to survive. At 62 I got hit with an autoimmune disease and began Keto to get off the Prednisone, then moved to more of a carnivore lifestyle. I began to return to my activities and was hiking for miles and doing ladder work with no knee discomfort, but what really caught my attention was that I could bend my knees completely, sitting on my hunches (butt touching my heels) without feeling like my knees were going to explode from the pressure! So at 67 I now feel more alive than I had in the previous 40 years. Sardines with skin and bones is my super food!

Can you kneel too? (In a position like as if you were washing a floor by hand) I had a bad fall and twist injury in my early 20s landing on my knees, and since then, I cannot kneel, and I know that feeling of not being able to fully crouch (like Asian style), bending knees more than 90 degrees while supporting body weight. I have no pain except then. Walking, climbing is good. Kneeling feels like someone suddenly snaps like a tendon, and I get a sharp pain. Doctor said supposedly nothing wrong… mostly right knee. 40 years of this. Most exercises require knees, like push ups, yoga, etc. I do eat very low carb, almost carnivore, as I have T1D (LADA). But the hypothyroidism could still be the problem.

Daily supplements: Magnesium, K2+D3, Athletic greens, collagen, CoQ10, Omega3, Turmeric.

I exercise moderately, golf a lot, cut firewood, garden, and do woodworking. Do not think that you are too old, too far gone, or too sickly. You can do it, start today!

Plus I lost 80 lbs in the process which I'm sure didn't hurt!! Thanks for the many helpful and inspiring videos Dr. Berry!

After losing 110 lbs on keto I still was taking Tylenol three times a day for knee pain with little or no relief. About 4 months ago after watching your video on Vitamin D and Magnesium, I doubled the recommended dosage and began taking the increased dosage consistently. For years, knee pain would wake me up every morning. About three weeks into the increased dosages of D3 and Magnesium I realized that my knee was no longer waking me up and the pain in both of my knees was gone. It has now been over three months religiously taking my double and triple doses of D3 and Magnesium with no pain. I still have pain in my hip but it is not chronic. I continue to eat keto. Thank you, Dr. Berry, for making the pain go away! Now come up with a solution for leaky heart valves and heart failure.

I have arthritis in my knee and require a full replacement. My dr didn’t want to do this and suggested I wear a brace which I did and it helped. I was in daily pain but refused to take any medication due to all the side effects. I can’t straighten my knee and can only get a 90 degree bend and had to walk down steps slightly sideways. I stated Carnivore 4 months ago and I have no pain whatsoever and I can walk down steps facing forwards. This way of eating definitely works.

Dr Berry is correct. I implemented everything he said 2 plus years ago and my knee pain is gone. I also do targeted strengthening exercises that remove the pain almost immediately.

[@deereverywhere]

I agree that my knee pain has greatly decreased since I've been keto and lost almost 50 pounds. While I still need to lose, I greatly agree that walking is the best thing in the world. On days when it is really sore I most certainly walk...use it or lose it. I took care of my mum for 20 years. She didn't want to move or walk. She became bedridden and I was unable to care for her by my self 24/7. Please keep encouraging people to walk. Also, I once heard a Yogi who lead people out of the twin towers on 9/11 who had a bad knee on that day and he used a technique. I have been using it too. It works. He rubbed his knee and told it how much he loved it and thanked it for all the wonderful work that it did for him. 😁❤ it works. Love on your knee while rubbing it. My chiropractor took an xray of my knee and said if I were to go to an orthopedic surgeon he would immediately want to do a knee replacement. My mum and my sister had them. I don't believe they work. Both fall (or fell) more. I used to take massive , like 2000 mg of motrin and at other times massive amounts of naproxen both prescribed by orthopedic doctors for my back. I believe all the digestive damage these massive doses caused is certainly not helping me now. When my mum went into a nursing home I found out how very limited the medication they allow the elderly and what horrible side effects, especially of over the counter medications are. They wouldn't even allow her benadryl. Bottom line try to get off of prescriptions. I went from 11 to 1 and a half and that half will be gone soon. Its blood pressure and the more weight I lose the lower it will be. Also I walk 2.2 miles a day. Half of that is up hill. I carry a walking pole in case my knee forgets what its supposed to do. Then I just rub it and tell it I love it.😁 Great job! ❤ thanks for all you do.

[@rangerover3960]

100% for this. Used to be afraid to walk more than half a mile lest my knee get unbearably painful - blamed it on having a slightly crooked leg, drs said ‘arthritis’, orthopaedic gave me exercises that helped a bit but didn’t cure. Went on keto a year and a half ago bc worried re diabetes, but knee (and all other joint pain) disappeared within weeks. Walked 20 miles pain free just a few days ago! 😊

Oh yes elimination type diet is key! I’m celiac so have been gluten free for years. Went to the ortho doc beginning of this year with severe right knee pain, weakness, painful locking and stiffness. He gave me pills and wanted to give me a shot, but I declined. I then gave up all grains, nightshades, seeds and nuts. Helped a lot but not totally. By mid year, I decided to follow Sally K Norton’s protocol on oxalates and gave up all (including my beloved iced tea)but winter squash, lettuces and occasional cabbages. Within weeks my knee pain, stiffness, and locking was gone! I am back to hiking, gardening and horseback riding with no pain.

I worked and played too hard and I am paying for it at age 54. Started keto Jan 1, 2020. I will admit I do “fall off the wagon” occasionally and hit the candy, cookies, as ice cream. What I can tell you absolutely without a doubt, after all this junk I feel physically sick and all the broken stuff hurts much more. it’s extremely painful to even attend to normal everyday tasks. 4 knee surgeries, spine surgery, numerous broken bones. Bad choices on my part. The thing with keto is you can build on it. Get on the program for a month and maybe walk to the end of the block, heck, walk back and forth in the hallway.and build on that. I try to walk for 1 hour a day. I don’t count steps. Just walk. I may not make it very far on one day in that hour and great on another day. Some days walking is just too much. I go to the pool put on a buoyancy belt and water walk. It really hurts but don’t stop moving. Down 50 lbs. 30 to go.

Not that bad, but that pain was always there, with spikes when doing any sudden movement, or just randomly. That was very limiting, making me always think twice before any physical effort, pushing me to a sedentary life, which over time made my health get worse.

If you have mild to moderate pain in your knees due to osteoarthritis, walking and other exercise helps mobilize your joint fluid and lubricate the joints.

@Micha EL When son#2 was 15yo, we found he had a gene for Reactive Arthritis (HLA B-27). The doctors told us there was nothing they could do. We had already cut out gluten, as when he was 12yo he was finally diagnosed Celiac. I went on a mission to prove them wrong. It took 5 yrs, and I was starting to teach blood type nutrition. We had found some of the foods along the way that kept that gene turned on. Then finally cut out ALL dairy, and BOOM, turned that gene off within 45 days. He went from barely being about to stoop 3" or rolling over in bed, to zero pain, and he started dropping the weight he could never lose. If your body looks at a food you are eating as a toxin, you will never lose weight. Plus, I already knew I had huge arthritis in my family. ALL of our lives changed when we cut out grains and dairy. His transformation over 2 yrs was amazing. Today he is 28yo, the picture of health. His before and after pics are crazy. I lost 3 dress sizes and, at 66yo, feel like I did in my 40s. Don't let a diagnosis by a doctor ruin your life.😉 Nutrition is the basis of all health. Dr. Berry is 100% right. We all have genes, but what we put in our mouth dictates whether they turn on or off.

[@thorzyan]

Patty Sisk I get my chicken bone broth from Costco, it's pretty affordable. Just make sure it's free range pasture raised grassfed (if beef), and make sure there's no added sugars. I mix 8oz with fresh ground ginger, turmeric, black pepper, cayenne pepper, & 1tbsp of spirulina & prepared Kirkland raw garlic , nuke it for 60 seconds.. instant chicken soup without the carbs. First thing I consume before breakfast everyday. Lots of folks on YT (including dr Berry) make their own using a hot pot. Just save all bones regardless of animal in the freezer and when the bag is full, it's time to make more. Then put it In small canning jars sizes and refrigerate until served. Pass it on!

FYI HERE IS THE CURE FOR ALL FORMS OF ARTHRITIS The cause of all forms of arthritis is BORON DEFICIENCY. The cure is (12 Mule Team) BORAX. Mix 1/8 to 1/4 tsp of borax dissolved in warm water daily. Drink on empty stomach. Take MAGNESIUM too since it also helps boron get absorbed. Magnesium deficiency is common in the population especially older. Borax is an ionic form of boron which helps it become bioavailable. Google boron and see all the things it cures. Silicon is needed to prevent brittle bones. Rheumatoid arthritis takes about 1 month to cure. Osteoarthritis will take 2-4 months. I have had both.

My left knee was just about ready for knee replacement like I had done with my right knee... BUT... I finally learned about and began doing Keto and intermittent fasting and started in July 2020 along with walking and weight training. Now... no more knee pain at all. Walking, doing stairs, exercise.. nothing bothers it anymore. I wish I had known about this before I had my right knee replaced although it is doing great with great range of motion... but the financial cost! Whew!

I have 2 partially torn hip Labral tears and would cry myself to sleep. I was in excruciating pain. I developed osteoarthritis. I did some research and took the gluten out of my diet. My pain was significantly reduced - probably 95%. It was incredible! I recently started taking sugar out of my diet - keto/low carb/intermittent fasting and I cannot believe more positive results - also eliminated anxiety and depression. Pain free and I feel amazing! Thanks for the videos doc!

I’m 45 and I was supposed to have right knee surgery last September due to a loss of a 5mm piece of cartilage in my knee joint, it was going to cost me $10k ish out of pocket so I cancellled the surgery. My Ortho said I would surely develop arthritis without surgery. Since May 2021 I have gone from 243lbs to 179lbs by doing 16:8 intermittent fasting and healthy keto while working out 4 days a week. My knee pain/inflammation is pretty much completely gone and I can live a very active lifestyle. There is no doubt in my mind that eliminating grains and sugar have made a huge difference. Dr. Berry this video is spot on! Thanks for your wisdom!

Back in February I started watching your videos. I was 304 pounds very painful knee pain. Also prediabetic. I first didn't believe i can change things by diet. I was taken ibuprofen every day.

Dr Berry has so much helpful knowledge. I'm 54 and have followed a low ketogenic diet for 17 months. I'm down 105 lbs. I'm under 200 lbs for the first time in 30 years. There's a huge change in the way my body feels. My "trick" that has worked for me, is how I view food. I now see it as a fuel mostly. I read labels and ask myself "is this food worth it to me for the ingredients?" I don't deny myself anything if I feel it's worth it. Truth is, sometimes a bowl of old fashioned ice cream is totally worth it. 😃 One of the plus sides is usually there are low carb ways to create your favorite foods right at home. Without all the added crap from the food manufacturers. Beware though, just because something says "keto" doesn't mean it's actually good for you. Be your own advocate for your health. It's never too late to start. 🙏🏼💪🏻💜

I git 2 total knee replacements 5 years ago. I wish I knew about keto/carnivore before hand. I was told it was from having knelt on concrete for years and was given Arthrotec, Tramadol, Cyclobenzaprine and Gabapentin from 2004 through to 2017 during which I started to eat Paleo and then took myself off all meds in 2017. I have been trying to stick to keto/carnivore but frequently have lapses. Even during those lapses, however the pain has not returned. I'm in the process of going 'ketovore' (meat heavy keto) and so far, not finding it overly difficult. It is tough at family gatherings though, because my son and his wife switched to "intuitive eating" after having done keto for a year (and getting great results) but they eat a lot of sugar, grains, starch heavy foods, and fruit. Anyway, just wanted to affirm that keto/carnivore way of eating definitely works for reducing arthritis pain

Low carb high fat + Intermittent Fasting fixed my knees. I was 42 in 2018 and pushing 230. In 6 months I was 170lb.

It's definitely not just weight. The foods you eat are relevant!

I have been dealing with lupus for the past 35 years, which affects my joints my skin and my organs. I deal with a lot of pain on a daily. When I became an adult in my early forties I ended up in a wheelchair using a walker in a cane as well. Soon as I got rid of gluten dairy severely limited my meat and sugars I no longer use a wheelchair a cane or Walker, I am working on eventually getting rid of all bad sugars. I still deal with pain but nothing like I did before.

[@todd9088]

Dr. Berry is terrific, so glad I found his channel. I have an arthritic left knee, if fact, it was bad enough to , not force, but hasten by retirement from the postal service. Also, i was at the point I couldn't walk 18 holes of golf, about hole 7 or 8 my knee would be screaming at me to stop. So, I changed my diet, mainly cutting out sugar and grains, and voila! My knee is rarely a concern...............unless my sweet tooth overpowers me and I indulge in my old diet of grains and sweets. So, listen to good doctor, he really is cranking out all the videos so he can help you live a healthier life.

I am another success story of Dr. Berry's advice. In 1987 I was a pedestrian run over by a car in a cross walk. My right knee was reconstructed. By being active, I have been able to make this knee do amazing things. I was a yoga teacher for 20 years, biking, bodysurfing, hiking, rollerblading, and more. It wasn't unitl I reached about the 30 year mark that I had to make the dietary restrictions Dr. Berry is recommending to lower the knee pain. They worked marvelously well. At 64 I ride my bike everywhere. I don't even own a car. and YES! if i sit too long my knee let's me know about it!

I have a friend who is several years younger than I am who has settled for the narrative that, "What can you do? Knee pain is just a part of getting older." It's so frustrating. I wrecked a knee years ago playing beach volleyball and I had resigned myself to chronic knee pain for life. Since going keto then carnivore, it just doesn't hurt anymore.

I have had austio-arthritis for many years, taking meds to control it. Since I changed my diet, eliminating sugar and all the things that cause inflammation, I now do not need the meds! My pain is under control without meds! At one point I went to an arthritis Doctor Who wanted me to have knee replacement surgery. I am so glad I said no. I now feel it’s not necessary. I even went to physical therapy and found out there are ways to illuminate the pain without meds, and without surgery. I’ve lost weight and I’m feeling so much better since I changed my diet. I consider myself a ketovor! It’s changed my life and I’m grateful to Dr. Berry and his wife Neisha for all the great help they have been on my journey. I will continue my journey and I’m grateful for all the help they give me. God bless you Berry family And thank you. This includes your beautiful baby boy!

Hi, how did you stop the pain meds?

I have a fusion in my lower spine that is also very bad without the Aleve.

[@trudylmiller]

@@amandawilson8935 Keto helped cut out a lot of inflammatory foods, which majorly helped my joint pain. Then I decided to try Carnivore to cut out the rest of my inflammation. Some plants can cause inflammation, and Carnivore helped me get rid of that. I do have some joint pain (I still weigh a little over 300 lbs), but my inflammation and joint pain have drastically reduced! I take something for pain maybe once a month or once every two months.

Excellent video! I've been eating the ketogenic diet for 9 months now because I have debilitating arthritis in my neck. I had to leave my desk job as an engineer because the pain was so bad. I noticed an improvement in my pain symptoms within one week of starting keto! 9 months later my neck hardly ever hurts at all now. My neck used to make a "grinding" sound when I turned it right to left. Now it's smooth. I think removing the chronic inflammation has allowed the cartilage to start to rebuild. It's very slow, but I predict that within another 6 months or a year it will be fully recovered! I might even be able to return to desk work! However, I'm never going back to eating vegetable oils, sugars and carbohydrates.

[@Red-jj7xf]

I need both knee's replaced. My doctor told me this 3 years ago but he also wanted me to wait. I wasn't sure if he wanted me to wait because I am severely overweight or because of my age. I am 53. I have adjusted my diet several times and I have several food allergies and sensitivities. One thing that has helped me to manage my pain is water exercise. I started out in water arthritis class. Then I started swimming laps. After a year and a half I started teaching my water arthritis and then regular water aerobics. That has helped tremendously. My knees do hurt at times but not as much as other parts of my body. I still need my knee replacement but hopefully It will be awhile. I need to look into the lectins and collagen. Already allergic to dairy, soy, wheat and gluten. Gotta be careful about eating the same foods too close together. Rotate your foods or you can develop sensitivities to the foods you can eat. Sugar can be a tough one.

[@debbielynn6291]

Not only getting rid of sugar etc took inflammation away...walking and working out totally changed things.
