Finding a good doctor these days is my biggest challenge. The healthcare system is broken by insurance companies

[@laurelpickens3364]

Insurance companies/pharma are the snake oil salesmen of our age and they are taking the medical community with them.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

I feel that all of it has grown out of a root lie, that animal fat is bad. So entire industries have been born to try and feed America without good fat, causing entire other industries to be born to wrestle with those consequences.

[@cyclone8644]

Truth!!!!!!!!

[@zeldalazino463]

All while our politicians say it’s the best in the world. More lies…. One of the worst is more like it.

[@arthurfonzarelli9828]

You have to pay out of pocket nowadays to find a good doctor because the ones that take insurance are part of the corrupt system. That or just don't have a doctor which is also a good strategy

[@GrowinAlaska]

It’s great to see people take personal responsibility for their personal life. It’s even better to watch people come to the realization that as far as the AMA, and their minions are concerned, “a patient cured is a customer lost”. You are what you eat, put the AMA out of business.

[@Hannah-pc7hg]

I agree. Never leave your health in the hands of others. Do your own reswarch always.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

Not very religious person, but AMEN to that. So much bad, uncaring medicine out there.

I have Multiple Sclerosis and psoriatic arthritis. Keeping my carbs below 20 grams a day is really helping both conditions.

[@jenniefiedler9854]

@@stephaniecrissup9112 lots of beef, the fatter the better! While I prefer ribeye, we also buy fatty cuts of sirloin and Chuck steak. Also bacon and eggs and lots of butter. I eat all the fat on my steak. But if you’re on a budget hamburger works. Like I said, the fatter the better. I also indulge in heavy whipping cream occasionally. You may want to ease into the fat consumption slowly until you can digest it. Also, try a ketogenic diet for a while first, which is what I did so I didn’t have flu symptoms. Also make sure you get lots of electrolytes and drink plenty of water. Hope this helps. ☺️

I have NEVER heard anyone say anything positive about a rheumatologist. It’s really sad… I’ve had lupus for 10 years (I’m 26) and I’ve never been to one. My lupus last year got to a point where I needed one, and luckily I found a Naturopath that specializes in Autoimmune and thyroid. But even then, diet still seems to be the largest factor.

I was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis a couple of years ago. I thought I was healthy having lots of kale, spinach and almond milk, the common foods. I found Dr Ken Berry, then Jordan Peterson, the Mikaela Peterson on You Tube. What they said made sense. I had nothing to lose and went carnivore immediately. Within days there was an improvement. I am 54, my skin is amazing and my health is so good.

You are amazing! Admire your persistence with doctors, I gave up years ago! Got tired of being told my problems were all in my head and because I was fat. 80 days today carnivore! Still have autoimmune issues but I’ve had enough improvement to keep going. Seeing your improvement has been a big motivation for me and many others!

[@AlbertD711]

You are looking amazing and are so inspiring. I have a rare illness called Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis. It affects people differently and I am one of the lucky ones that it has only caused bone loss, pituitary damage and skin lesions. On some it damages vital organs, the brain and can be fatal. There is recent research that says it could be an Autoimmune issue. Since starting carnivore about 10 months ago along with losing 70 pounds my skin has improved significantly and I think my bone loss has stabilized. I also don't wake up with horrible congestion like i use to and just feel so much better all around. Your story has been a big part of keeping me on this path. I won't go as far as saying you and Dr. Berry have saved my life but you have certainly help make it way better. Thank you for all you do and being so open about your own issues. I'm in Bremerton, Washington but have not made it to one of your get togethers. I hope to one of these times. It would be a pleasure to meet you and your husband and some of our fellow carnivores.

[@inharmsway1965]

For anyone who is keto/ketovore that is still having autoimmune issues and flare ups and is still eating nuts you may be lectin sensitive. I was eating a lot more peanuts when eating out to replace the hot buttered bread. The peanuts and almonds are a problem for me with or without carbs.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

That is a good point inharmsway. Scott was munching on nut trail mix when we started and still had terrible allergies with watering eyes all day long. Carnivore is learning all the different things our bodies react to.

[@inharmsway1965]

@@CarnivorousMe1 Exactly, no way to know when you are eating everything.

Peanuts are legumes, not nuts. Also cashews. Legumes definitely can be problematic. Peanuts also can contain mold.

Omg that doctor who blamed everything on your weight is horrible! That is NOT practicing good medicine. Some health conditions occur REGARDLESS of weight. Everyone deserves proper care and treatment. I'm so happy that you are feeling better on carnivore. It is the same for me; I wasn't seeking weight loss, but health improvements. My joint pain (non RA) is gone, my muacle aches goes, brain fog gone, even cleared up my skim conditions and it helped my receding bleeding gums!

[@CarnivorousMe1]

The health benefits have been amazing, the list goes on and on. As far as doctors I have to say it's par for the course really. I lot of changed in medicine and most just push a drug and know very little about nutrition. Was watch some documentary last night where doctors DOCTORS are saying sugar does not cause diabetes, meat does. Mind boggling.

[@breakinginsanityscycle]

I went to a RA specialist in SunnySide Washington. He told me i had 5 out of 7 symptoms he was looking for to help me. Years later bc I was still feeling bad I did more blood work showed i had thyroid issues and autoimmune problems and RA. Was also told just my weight.

Even following all of the guidelines I have read about, been given by my doctor, and have researched, nothing has really helped my flares. Thankfully, my rheumatologist is very open minded, and not opposed to trying alternative methods as long as I use them properly, so I’m going to give carnivore a try. I’m so happy you are no longer suffering the way you used to.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

Oh YAYA!!! Its a HUGE game changer, I can tell almost immediately (worse the next day) when i eat off carnivore the pain returns with a vengeance but after a couple days back on it just disappears. I TRULY hope you get some amazing relief with doing carnivore!

Hi Amanda! Thank you so much for sharing your update and sharing your story with us. It’s very inspiring to watch your journey. I was diagnosed with RA approximately a year and a half ago after having strange symptoms for about four years it was told four years ago that my high RA counts was a false positive and that the rheumatologist didn’t think that anything to worry about and four years later I end up back at the rheumatologist being told that my markers lit up like a Christmas tree. The doctor started me on Cortizone and then The Biologics Cymiza which I had a terrible reaction to. I told my doctor and he did not feel that it was due to the Biologics. So he is no longer my doctor. I also have been recently got six months ago diagnosed with CIRS and have been carnivore since February the same time that we suspected that I had chronic inflammation response syndrome. So doing carnivore has helped however I feel good for about a week and then I hit a wall and then I tend to have a flare up. I am doing supplements binders and prep to start the Shoemaker protocol finally this Wednesday I will be seeing The doctor to start the protocol! I know it’s a journey but I am so hopeful and thankful for what lies ahead. So glad to see you’re doing so well thank you for sharing!🙏😊

I got Ankylosing Spondylitis and Typ 1 Diabetes. The Diabetes is ok, since I got it over 30 years and know how to handle it. But my problem is the Bekhterev's disease (Ankylosing Spondylitis), pain 24/7 and all the other common symptoms. I'm considering a meat based diet, not a pure meat diet, cuz I won't let out certain vegetables that's for sure, due to vitamins and bitter compounds, which contain free radicals and which are essential to fight of cancer cells. The thing with Ankylosing Spondylitis is, that certain meat fat types cause inflammation a great deal, like lamb fat for example. Hence I have to do a process of elimination to see what suits me and what not. I got curious in your video because of Rheumatoid Arthritis, which is somewhat similar to Ankylosing Spondylitis in a way. I'm happy for you 😊👍 Greetings from Europe!

I started carnivore recently, I think it’s too soon to have an opinion but I will continue. I want to have energy to go out, to go hiking.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

I haven't suffered from chronic fatigue but being overweight so much really kept me inside. I played tennis for an hour yesterday, it was wonderful to be outside and able to stand up that long. Carnivore is a great path for mental and physical health

[@Hippychick0771]

I started carnivore after hearing about micaela as well.I lost heaps of weight but I was so constipated,had bad sinuses,adrenal fatigue, and my feet were excruciatingly painful I could not walk so had to stop or I would have ended up in a wheelchair.So sad it did not help me.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

I have found not enough salt and water are real issues. Can I recommend the book The Salt Fix by James Dinicolantonio. Without enough salt A1C can actually go up, and cause other issues

[@TTail1]

You are awesome

[@CarnivorousMe1]

Thank you very much TTail

[@johncarlson8125]

I want to document my one year journey, what is a good camera to buy for making youtube videos

[@kermitt2000]

gonna check your first videos, Im curious about your changes. Just started Carnivore and Im a bit concern about the impact on health.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

If you have concerns look at my website. I have slacked updating lately but I do have over a year of bloodwork, including advanced lipid panels to show my health changes at carnivorousme.com Here is my first: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a6eUXopsabqhmNk Here is today: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4u8g6R5bLWoqKM Here is my last cardiologist visit: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mWeqqJeif7R3rtU

I have scleroderma now for 36 yrs and I hope the carnivore diet help me.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

This way of eating (WOE) has helped countless people with autoimmune issues. I really hope it does the same for you. Here is how to start: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6uWpn17haelhKs

[@lorivandertholen5026]

How long have you had scleroderma. I was diagnosed in 1987 when I was only 12yrs old and now im 48 yrs old, so its been a battle for many years. I also have raynauds disease. What type of scleroderma do you have?

[@joannenardoni17]

I have been 95% carnivore for 2 months. I do eat a little squash from my garden, boiled with bitter on it. Today I bought apricots to make jam for gifts for holidays. I just ate like 10 apricots. They were so good. I haven’t had an apricot for couple years. Oh well. Better tomorrow.

[@onedazinn998]

Amanda, you had arthritis nodules on your fingers and with carnivore it just simply disappeared from not eating vegetables? Did you ever test to see what veg causes you to have flare ups? I have arthritis pretty bad in my hands now at 63 (my mother had it) and most days I wake up not being able to close my fist and my fingers are very weak and fragile because to use them hurts. I suspected it was from medication side effects making it worse from cholesterol meds (Avorstatin & Ezetimibe which I have stopped taking this past week since my numbers are in a great place with diet and the pain I'm experiencing is worth getting off them for). I am recovered 2+yrs from a heart attack/lung collapse/diabetes and I have reversed my diabetes with Keto & weight loss; but my arthritis is seriously flaring almost all the time with gardening. I also experience strange lack of flexibility with my fingers in a "snap back in place" movement. My cardiologist wants me to continue 8 different meds for life for my heart....I want off them and wonder how much of this arthritis pain is from medication side effects. I believe I've lost muscle due to Avorstatin and still have difficulty walking and endurance. I've eaten moderate veg all my life so I'd be surprised if they are the cause of this pain. On Keto, I'm more protein than veg but I try to keep my carbs at below 20g. I might start pushing towards total Carnivore for 30 days and see if it helps me. Congratulations on bringing your body back to good health & your weight goals! Thank you for sharing your story.

[@afrosrb7828]

From what I know is, that those who have gout, that leguminous plants cause inflammation a great deal. Beans, lentils etc.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

I really didn't find which vegetables affected me the most. I reduced down my veggies to garlic and onion powder on meat. I loved grilled asparagus and had a fantastic recipe for broccoli cheese soup but I just don't eat them anymore. I found my limit is really 10 or so carbs a day. I eat a pint of raspberries and my feet start to hurt on walks. Veggies take a bit more than a meal but same thing really. A 30-day BBBE (beef, butter, bacon, eggs) challenge is what a lot of people do to find out if elimination is going to really work for them.

[@onedazinn998]

@@CarnivorousMe1 Great idea ;) and yes I was guessing also at the 10g carbs per day. I'm happy with my present course except for the arthritis pain & some residue of neurological issues which comes and goes. I'm hoping I can get off these meds and when I hit under 200lbs soon, I'm hoping my health will get much better. :) Thanks for answering!

[@hw123]

​@@onedazinn998 we introduced eggs and my daughter that never gets migrains got it. So would encourage beef water salt till u totally symptom free then add a food group

[@sauly99]

Hey just found your channel. Any advice for trying to convince my wife to try carnivore? Her RA has been bad for a while and she's trying all sorts of medications, nothing's helping. Appreciate any advice

I have cervical stenosis, psoriatic arthritis and all my joints affected, knees full of synovial fluid. I’m 1 week into strict carnivore and honestly don’t feel any better at all. In fact i almost felt worse after day 4. Am i being too impatient after 1 week, should i stick it out for a month even if i feel no improvement? So dejected, this is my last resort I don’t want drugs.

[@AhsanRocky]

did it get worse at the beginning than it got better or it was better from week 1 on carn diet?

[@SS-qo3nt]

I like your new hairstyle! Next month I will get rid of my subtly-gaslighting PCP, who - in all other areas of his life, is a very nice person, but, our clinical relationship just doesn't work anymore.

[@annebeck2208]

I wonder if Dr.s, who don't really want to have another patient, look for an excuse? I have similar symptoms, but was told that my toddlers (at the time) and lack of sleep were causing my issues. Several years later, Dr.s blamed all the stress in my life and big moves, jumping on anything "obvious." Hoping this way of eating will help whatever, so far, it has helped a few things lots more than the Dr.s!

[@CarnivorousMe1]

I have seen comments from people doing carnivore for years, the effects on health are lasting and in multiples of anything doctors do

[@dixydarlin56]

Also treating my RA with mostly meat keto diet. My rheumatologist says he has multiple patients who have done so. He doesn't oppose it but, oddly, doesn't seem interested either! I wonder what the mechanism for this is? Is it the lack if inflammatory carbs or the presence of ketones? Already did the AIP to figure out sensitivities; I am currently experimenting with carb levels within ketosis to figure out my ideal diet. Right now I'm doing high fat, moderate protein. I wonder if neoglucogenesis is inflammatory.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

That is what I recommend, high fat moderate protein. Some people eat too much and excess protein just adds as stored energy like eating to much carbs.

[@dixydarlin56]

Thank you for the reply!

[@belinda-janekent-brown4494]

Simply love your story. I turn 76 in the next week or two. Have gained and lost hundreds of pounds 😂in my lifetime. I belonged to OA and when Covid arrived it was do or die. Addicts need that. Sadly a few died ~as Obesity though not highlighted enough~is major co morbidity. So started Keto and as is often the journey am now Carnivore. A little slower for us post menopausal geriatrics without our beloved oestrogen.and progesterone Have lost 48kgs🤗 You have done it at the perfect time. At this age the neck is now not unlike that of fowls eaten at Thanksgiving in your country 😂😂😂 Wear high collars and polo necks. Cardiologists and Dieticians not in the loop are very wary of my eating habits and raised cholestrol. It will take time for those who still read textbooks from the 70's😂

[@TooStinkinFine]

I’ve been considering carnivore. I also have Limited Scleroderma. My fingers are horribly painful. Calcium deposits in my fingertips feel like hot nails are being hammered into my fingers. I also get abscesses on them that have to be opened up. I can’t do a lot of things anymore. My house looks so bad most days because I can barely clean up. On good days I can clean. That may be three days a month. I can straighten the house most days but not do necessary cleaning. I cry when I’m alone. My family are great but assume I can just suck it up and do more things they think I can. I can’t write with a pen. It goes on……. Is carnivore an expensive diet? I’m on a limited income. I don’t buy a lot of meat because of the cost. I am still paying on hospital and doctor bills from breast cancer surgery. It makes me happy to see you’re feeling so much better. Maybe it can help me. Typing this is slow and painful, but if anyone can understand it would be you. Thanks for letting me vent…. God bless you sweet girl!❤❤❤

[@sophiacromwell8017]

@TooStinkinFine I can relate to your situation much much than I want to admit.. you’re not alone. Try carnivore, watch some videos from Laura Spath, Dr Mindy Peltz & Dr Annette Bosworth to learn about how carnivore, keto & fasting work together to help.... Laura Spath’s videos show you how to shop/ eat out & order carnivore. I’m spending the same (sometimes less) now that I eat carnivore AND I’m able to do much more at home & work. Wishing you all the best!!!

[@xHORZAx]

You eat less and absolutely no junk food so I think it levels out. Shop around if your on a budget but always look on the back of the packet to see the carb content. Keep it as low as possible. Good luck and hope you feel better

[@TooStinkinFine]

Thanks for the info, Sofia and HoarZax! I really appreciate it.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

Thank you for sharing TooStinkinFine, I really empathize with your struggle. I had a hard time doing a flight of stairs for water or 10 minutes of dishes when I started. Carnivore is a lot more affordable than people think. The path is finding meat on sale and mentally learning that is eating is not what you want but what you need for healthy living. Then you can make great meals with just hamburger and butter. Here is a video I did on the cost: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eIfEpIiZfbaihcU Here is my playlist on recipes. I should add more roasts and such with are VERY affordable: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j322foxooreEfbc I am also reviewing Atomic Habits, a book I strongly recommend you read to have good habits around eating: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kImzXpyrgr1mjpY Thank you very much for your support and encouragement. It means a lot to be struggling yourself and still giving the gift of kind words to others. You have great spirit, dare to believe in your future.

[@CarnivorousMe1]

Thank you for replying and supporting others Sophia! Great recommends in your comment and great example of our community.

[@joeherrera2800]

I have an autoimmune disease called polymyositis- I need to get serious and try carnivore -

[@CarnivorousMe1]

My body was so inflamed that I couldn't move well, much less work out. You do need to get serious about carnivore. This is what it has done for all my autoimmune issues: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pH3Cqoeii5KpZ5I If you want to succeed on carnivore I cannot recommend enough getting and reading Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg. Best money you could ever spend on yourself

[@nitareed4088]

How has your decrease/stopping of other autoimmune conditions gone? You mentioned hydroxychloroquine....what about steroids, biologics, etc?

[@theantiqueactionfigure]

This lady is beautiful❤!

[@CarnivorousMe1]

Thank you, very kind and generous support

[@CelticDruidess1]

There is a topic re the "inflammatory" conditions that I'm very curious about - that being bladder control. I'm curious as to how many, especially women, have experienced a reduction or elimination of their bladder control issues while either being on carno-keto and or carno? I'm on a carno-keto (for want of better words) for about 3 months and I'm going to say that mine is at least 60+% better. If I end up in a flair up for RA or a few others because of my exposure to my intolerance/allergy foods or environmental triggers, my bladder issue comes back with a vengeance along with all the other negatives.

[@lorimarie6887]

That's encouraging since mine is getting worse.
