Animal-Based Grocery Haul at Trader Joe's

[@Dnice365]

I went carnivore Oct 2023 but instinctively never gave up fruit. I have lost the weight I desired and feel great. It’s nice to know I’m in good company. I know many carnivores won’t agree but it works for me and I reserve the right to continue to modify and tweak as necessary for my optimal health.

[@tygerknight195]

Thank you Paul! Your videos have helped me change my fathers life. He was going through some really bad sciatic pain that put him completely out of work (he works construction). I had him cut out all the sugars and processed foods and I started him on a strict organic chicken and bone broth soup diet for a couple of weeks, and it literally completely healed him. He was back to hanging Sheetrock within that same month.

[@GalaxyOfBoltz]

Curious about is CBD oil. Is cbd oil bad? Does it count as a seed oil since it’s hemp seed oil? People say it’s anti inflammatory and yet Paul says seed oils ARE inflammatory. Should I consume it or stop???

[@rightfulfuture4]

​@GalaxyOfBoltz I'd say the inflammation gained from ingesting seed oils outweighs the inflation lost from the cbd. But idk though.

Owners of Porscheless-Porsches unite! 🤣 Great analogy - I've thought for years how curious and funny it is that vegans recreate "meat" to eat vs just enjoying their plants as plants.

[@robertmaverick]

I've been eating a meat and fruit diet for some time now. It's unbelievable how good, almost euphoric, I feel. I keep wondering when I'll crash, as that is what I was used to. Feel good when eating a bunch of shit, then crash. But this feeling is consistent. I love it. My workouts have gone through the roof too. So much energy to exercise and I build muscle consistently and don't feel fatigued. It did need some getting used to, when transitioning from a more standard Western diet, but it is well worth it. Thanks Paul! Edit: also my mood. It has improved vastly. I am prone to depression and anxiety and although I still have my bad moments, it has improved significantly, both in lessening of frequency and intensity of the episodes.

[@mamacitamamacita649]

@robertmaverick , can you share, what does a days worth of meals look like for you? Do you intermittent fast or no?

[@truthtelleranon]

For the anxiety and depression, consider doing meat only weeks to see if that positively impacts you, or drastically reducing the sugar intake from fruit. Some people have seen great improvements doing that

[@lycanthropy007]

Thank you for opening my eyes Paul, I was doing keto and failing, having the same electrolyte issues and never lost a pound... I have reintroduced carbs and my glucose is fine...normal spikes and no more cramping or exhaustion. It does give you a form of insulin resistance when you go complete keto... I did it for years... I have autoimmune issues as well.. I would get rashes, painful joints and migraines and have removed various foods over the years... I eat very similar to you. So glad I can eat fruit and natural sugars again!

[@aspiresk8boarding]

On carnivore I used to get leg cramps while sleeping all the time no matter how much sodium or magnesium I had. After adding in fruit I have had no more cramps

[@Fritz_P]

Yes agree, and I always wondered if we are not supposed to eat fruit or honey and only meat (stringent carnivore), why do we have or did we evolve taste buds that crave for sweet things also? I follow the carnivore diet but think we have evolved to eat seasonal fruit & honey also, otherwise we will be like say for example a lion who only craves meat?

[@WalkerTom]

Leg cramps during sleep can often be linked to an imbalance in electrolytes, particularly potassium. While sodium and magnesium are important for muscle function, potassium plays a key role in restoring the resting state of muscle cells and resetting the electrical gradient across the muscle membrane, allowing muscles to relax fully. If your carnivore diet was low in potassium, adding fruit likely corrected the deficiency and reduced your cramps. It’s also important to maintain a proper balance of electrolytes. If the issue is low potassium, adding more sodium without addressing potassium can actually make the imbalance worse, as they need to work together in the right ratio to support muscle and nerve function. Fruits are a great source of potassium, which may explain why they made such a difference for you. :)

I really do respect the knowledge this guy spreads. I am always trying to educate myself on life in general, most specifically nutrition and exercising. However, the more I listen to Paul and others on what to eat and what not to eat, I can't help but think to myself all of those individuals in this world who literally live until their 80's, 90's and 100's and they know nothing about this. It makes me laugh. Food in moderation, exercise/move, be grateful and thankful for everything you have and be happy and kind to others. Seems like more of a recipe for longevity than spending a load of money (I notice these guys don't have big families to feed) on organic this or grass fed that. Regardless, I appreciate the knowledge and studies presented.

[@paulpoitras3642]

I might be wrong about this, but i strongly believe that store bought fruit of any kind is crap. Because most of the fruit in the store are harvest when they are not ripe, so technically the tree does not want you to eat them yet. I strongly believe there is something missing or something that should not be there in pre harvest fruit, even if it ripens naturally on your counter at home. Fruit is a seasonal food that should be harvest and eating fresh from the tree when the time is right.

Almost all of the oxalates in potatoes are in the skins. Peeled and boiled work for me, slowly introduced them after not eating them for about a year. No bloating or issues. Worth experimenting with in my opinion, very satiating.

On the honey and diabetes study, it didn’t affect fasting blood sugar and had beneficial effect on lipids but it increased the hemoglobin A1c so for diabetic and prediabetic, honey would be a caution.

What freaks me out about honey is that it could be the most expensive Manuka honey and they can lace it with high fructose corn syrup because there is no regulation on it.

Eat them if you're thriving. And cook the crap out of them if you're going to eat them. Honestly they're not the worst things in the world - if you swap processed foods for veggies and real, whole foods, you're winning. I only say to avoid veggies for those struggling with autoimmune issues, as I've seen so many people IMPROVE or RESOLVE their conditions through a strict elimination diet of removing vegetables...

[@EssentialMattersPodcast]

@@Paulsaladinomd I absolutely agree here… not the worst thing in the world for the average person especially considering the poison that the average person ingests every single day. Although for others, they cause a lot of harm.

I make my own dressings, and always thought “good” olive oil was healthy, now I’m not sure. All the fake meat was a big deal in California (when I lived there). The vegetarian restaurants were full of fake meat dishes-what a waste! BTW, I’m not sure I can eat organ meat, especially as most of the organs you recommend are filtering organs, which would be full of the animal’s waste that’s not excreted.

@@GalaxyOfBoltz if you ask me I would say no for a few reasons. The first being you probably are not consuming copious amounts of CBD oil as you would dietary oil. The second hempseed oil has a 3:1 omega-6:omega-3 ratio which is believed to be ideal. Thirdly, seed oils have shown many positive health outcomes in multiple randomized controlled trials…the reason paul vilifies them is because they dont fit his narrative. Look up Dr.Bill Harris and Dr. Matthew Nagra for some additional information regarding seed oils. I personally believe the reason seed oils are viewed negatively is because they are high sources of omega 6 fatty acids that heavily skew our omega 6 to omega 3 ratio. Many people living in North America (where im from) have ratios like 15-20:1 which is extremely bad for health.

Dear Dr Paul Saladino, huge supporter in what you do and appreciate your content. Question, I can eat chicken, salmon, dairy and turkey no problems but every time I introduce any kind of red meat within the first two days my blood pressure creeps up and it causes fight or flight. Any idea what is causing this? If I stop eating it within 2 days my BP goes back to normal immediately. I’m so confused and flabbergasted by this lol red meat is such a gift to us all on paper. I’m super healthy 35 year old male, certified personal trainer/nutritionist, able to do HITT style cardio 7 days week no problems alongside of weight training 6 days a week like a beast. I’ve even done straight red meat carnivore for 6 months and had to get on BP medication because of it just so you know I am super strict if need to be. Again thank you for all you do and all the lives you’ve changed with your work! Not currently on BP meds that was two years ago. I’ve just tried to reintroduce it numerous of times with the same results which is insanity I know but I truly believe in all my heart that carnivore/keto is what we are meant to eat and that alone has changed my life and completely got rid of years of depression and anxiety. Also causes indigestion, sluggishness and insomnia alongside the high BP. Sorry for such a long message just can’t get my words out like I can normally when I’m not so confused and pissed off. Have you seen this in anyone else or am I the lone wolf here?

[@_carnivore_joe1520]

Sorry Paul. But in my personal experience which may or may not be shared by others, even low glycemic fruit like blueberry's and organic honey have a negative effect on my labs/bloodwork, and I gained weight. When I eliminated those things, my labs improved, and the weight started to come back off. Did our ancestors eat things like fruit or honey.. Yes they definitely did. But think about how often that was. It likely didn't happen every day. Which probably should be considered when eating them now. At least for me, they are a treat that I happen upon and I enjoy them, but its only until I get to the next fatty kill. And for all those people that don't question a word you say, I am very active and workout every day. So activity level isn't an issue in regards to carbs and how my body absorbs them. Glad this works for you, and for some. But for myself, and for a lot of others out there. Fruit and honey on a daily cause issues and should probably only be consumed from time to time.

I have no doubt in my mind that carbohydrate consumption from fruit, dairy, and honey is both natural and beneficial for most people. As for me, I had to go strict carnivore again due to post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome. It's not clear if I have an active and persistent infection, or if I have an extended autoimmune response, but what is clear is that this is a case in which I should use ketosis and a strict carnivore diet for a hard reset. To those who eat fruit, honey and milk, keep going. Strict carnivore is usually only optimal for those with serious health issues that require even tighter restriction of food.

"Animal Based Grocery Haul" Immediately starts getting a bunch of fruit

I used to be a big fan of TJ. But, when I found out their romaine lettuce never rotten even over a month later, I stopped buying veggies except for organic potato & garlic over there. I highly suspicious TJ doesn't inspect which growers are not using Apeel coating strictly. However, their meat's quality is great and much cheaper than Sprout Farmer's Market. Thank you, Paul!

Can someone PLEASE HELP ME. I have severe psoriatic arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis. I know Paul says to avoid seed oils and I do but the one I’m Curious about is CBD oil. Is cbd oil bad? Does it count as a seed oil since it’s hemp seed oil? People say it’s anti inflammatory and yet Paul says seed oils ARE inflammatory. Should I consume it or stop???

[@davidgonzales7321]

Grocery haul videos are great. Thank you!

[@THutch052]

I wish our TJs was that big. 👍🏼👍🏼 This is interesting. I have seen a lot of opposing research and information from other healthy food experts. While a lot of what you have said, I agree with and have seen consistent (like lowest toxins, closest to nature, etc), so I do appreciate this. Thanks!

Keep an open mind, the sprouted bread at ALDIs is awesome and healthy, if you want to eat bread everybody wants a healthy sandwich sometime , they even have awesome organic lunch meat there , you may want to visit there someday if there is one near you, check it out 👍😀

[@timratcliffe4066]

Hi paul, would you be able to do a video like this for your UK followers please? And maybe do one for folk who are on a budget. I also suffer from IBS so any advice would be appreciated. Many thanks.

Check out his Costco and Sam's club and Walmart videos. Should be easy enough to find versions of those where you live

[@SophieAbrams]

You mentioned whole food forms of sugar....would this not include lactose found in yogurt?

[@0341-g8g]

Hey, Im new to this channel. Has Paul ever recommended any good cookware? Im ready to toss out all my teflon pot and pans and ones with forever chemicals. I want to find out what brands are good ones that will be safe and last awhile. Thanks!

[@jacksonbax]

I actually have a specific question, so i have a frontal lobe tbi and eating is hard for me, so i blend my food with water. I get about 1.5-3 gallons of water a day since i eat 5 meals, now ironicly that dehydrated me extremely for about a year, so ive had to level out with electrolytes. So my question is will this negatively effect me long term? Btw all i eat (lireral) is chicken, noodles, almond butter, and fruits, i am an avid fitness freak.

I genuinely enjoy this type of content Paul. Keep up the good work!

What are your take on frozen fruits?? I heard it’s better than fresh fruits

[@cabralj3]

Hey paul what do you recommend for someone performing high intensity resistance training? I normally would consume grains so I had a higher carbohydrate load day to day meaning feeling more full. Now even though I consume fruit and honey I’m feeling more flat. Do I double my dose of fruit and honey?

[@AnthonyLivoti]

hey paul, I hear fresh cut fruit is sprayed to keep it from going bad, also salads, and the misters in the vegetable areas, of a supermarket.

[@Fresh_N_Fit]

Paul, I'm transitioning from strict carnivore to adding fruit and honey as of 4 days ago and this morning after eating meat, honey, and mango my blood sugar spiked to 175 and quickly went down. I heard you say that as long as the blood sugar spike lowers quickly it's fine, but 175 feels a bit excessive. Will this get better in more time? To add, it was probably about 75-100g of carbs that I ate.

[@tropicaoptica]

Hey, try eating your fruit first in the day separate from any fat or protein. Your insulin response will be best in the morning after fasting all night. Fat in the blood blocks insulin receptor sites. Try it out!

[@Fresh_N_Fit]

@@tropicaoptica I'll give it a shot, thanks.

[@user-ex3lg4nn4e]

Can you please discuss troubleshooting sleep issues on animal based? Idk if it’s cortisol or what. Adding the fruit and such has helped a lot with my energy levels during the day but I’m waking up 1-3 times a night.

[@djmylesmatisse]

What about cabbage and arugula? These are incredibly healthy from what I've heard as far as vegetables go.
