I had oxalate dumping a month in and it lasted a couple of months. But then it was gone and man oh man, the arthritic pain in my knees, hips, and elbows was gone. My skin started healing from all kinds of conditions including dandruff, psoriasis, split fingers, bleeding gums and more. My 50 years of constant migraines ended, my teeth were clean on their own, the buildup went away, and more. It seems like it can't all be true, but I was 63 and feeling better than I had felt since I was a child.

I've lost 42 pounds, reversed fatty liver, diabetes and diverticulitis. I'm not winded anymore, no more bursitis no more bleeding gums. One thing i found out is, i could get off the floor without help!! I started crying!! I'm sixty and havent been able to do that in years!!!! I'm also mentoring three friends with carnivore.

I started the Carnivore diet on Jan 1, 2024! I was on Keto for 2.5 years I lost around 30lbs. But it started to stall, and the weight just slowly came back. Being that I was a Vegetarian for 15 years, and a Strick Vegan for 5. I was consuming Tons and Tons of Salad and greens! Beans, Legumes, and lots of rice! I had burning, and pains in my feet and toes. Always a strange inchy rash on back. Extreme fatigue, restless sleep, bloating, stomach issues. Taking truck loads of vitamins and supplements everyday! The list goes on, and on. I was eating clean and organic! Then why was I feeling so awful! I stopped the Salads Cold Turkey! I even quit the dark chocolate that was only my only sweet thing! I didn't know about Oxalates or Oxalate dumping. The crystals were coming out in my eyes! 3-4 days of Extreme elimination issues... Weird rashes that were on my leggs and feet! My doctor and his colleague were scratching there heads, because they never seen anything like it! They are now GONE! I am now in my 5th month of Carnivore! 😊 lost 10 lbs. So far I'm still going strong! Feeling, and sleeping better. The fatigue and rashes disappeared. I have more energy, no more brain fog! I still have gut issues but I feel that will eventually go away. Thank you so much for Sally K Norton, her book, and all the research that she has done to get this info out into the world! 😂

@kacielee24 ... Have you ever experienced "black stools or even bloody stools" as a part of the "oxalate dumping" ... I and my mom both experienced this taking a sublingual B-12 supplement that contained Glycerin/Glycerol... Which as it turns out is ALSO the same active ingredient in SUPPOSITORIES of all things, And it's also in every fat soluble capsule of vitamins... And while my mom and I were taking it the first few weeks we felt AMAZING and then it came on like a gradual onset of a flu like and then headaches and nausea vomiting and the the diarrhea...took almost a month or two to get over it AFTER we stopped taking it... We even tried a second time after a month or so of being normal and the same process happened... I don't know what else it could have been other than the Glycerin Glycerol or oxalates...just thought I would see if Anyone had anything at all similar....

It was through carnivore that I found Sally. I had given up on carnivore because I thought it was making me sick. I ended up with a 25mm kidney stone blocking my right kidney that led to PCNL surgery. After reading Sally's book I understand what happened to me. It seriously explains my childhood up until now. It started with veggies from my grandparents garden (constant UTI's, boils, ADHD) and then in 2018 I went keto not realizing what oxalates were...I consumed almonds, peanut butter, chocolate, spinach in my salads and more. So, when I transitioned to carnivore (zero to 60) because I am black or white for sure...I got sick. Plantar fasciitis, heart palps, vertigo, and more. I left carnivore many times because it would always happen. I finally realized that carnivore is such a powerful healing tool that when I cut all the oxalates at once it was like taking all the dust from my home and shoving it in my air filter. That was my poor kidneys...they could not detox all that at once so here came the massive rock that about made me lose my right kidney. I am now happily eating 90% carnivore and no more vertigo, plantar fasciitis, high bp, acne...all gone. I know I have a long way yet to go but now with Kelly and Sally's coaching group in my healing toolbox I finally have answers I have looked for my whole life!! I had the kidney stone in 2022 and as of two years have not developed more. I do have one more 10mm in my left kidney just sitting there. I feel as if I opened a magic box learning about oxalates and having carnivore on my side. I only use veggie sides as medicine now. Sorry this was so long. I had talked about this on my YT not that long ago. I could cry tears of joy with this info. I know it will help so many.

At least according to so called experts. I began to lower carbs slowly. Took away added sugar and then processed foods and then heard Sally!!! My symptoms suddenly explained!! I began to take away the foods on her list. Oh my what a difference! I have tried to reintroduce some of those with negative results. Avoiding them for over 18 months now my bloodwork and lack of negative symptoms have proven to me that those vegetables are not as essential as the so called experts suggest.

I've used a handful of almonds and a small square of dark chocolate when oxalate dumping became too severe. My oxalate dumping symptoms were severe diarrhea and I mean severe. I was 77 y.o. When I started Carnivore I went all out at the beginning and regretted it until I came across a video with Sally Norton and realized I went about it wrong. I have been a strict carnivore for over a year and a half now and feel better than I have for a decade. I'm no longer having to eat any oxalates to compensate. It took about a month and a half for me to be able to drop the high-oxalate foods completely.

[@karenrotter6280]

And she is saying it can happen at any time, even up to ten years later. So it’s what it is and I will stay on Carnivore as long as I can. Being 72 and very low income, no support system, hopefully will not develop harmful symptoms but only time will tell. Can’t worry about what might or might not happen.

[@DSmith-ss8jo]

Started carnivore on 3/8/24, felt great first 2 weeks, then the diarrhea started. After 3 weeks, I figured out I was supplementing way too much magnesium. Stopped all the Mg on 4/10, and I still had the diarrhea a week later. Thought "low stomach acid" and added in an ox bile supplement, still no luck. Went all beef, no dairy, no eggs, still no luck. I read Toxic Superfoods during this time and figured out I had been eating a fairly high oxalate smoothie for breakfast for years (milk, yogurt, collagen powder, mct oil, chocolate protein powder, chia seeds, & peanut butter) with a pot of strong black tea. On 5/2, I watched a video by EO Nutrition that was about "carnivore diarrhea." He talked about low bile and high bile symptoms (don't have those), and he mentioned oxalate dumping (I hadn't put 2 & 2 together to get 4 yet). He said to find out if it was oxalate dumping, eat a handful of peanuts. I did, and symptoms subsided. On 5/6, I added back in a pot of strong black tea with breakfast (hamburger patties or bacon & eggs now) plus some peanuts after dinner. I started bumping up the peanuts over the last couple of weeks to 28g of peanuts with my 3 meals. I still have some diarrhea issues, but they are better than they were. My plan is to stick with the tea and peanuts for the next week and see if things will go back to normal. I like the peanuts because I can weigh them to get a more accurate oxalate number than a pot of tea, easier to start doing a reduction when the time comes, hopefully soon. I had a cranky R hip & L knee this morning, and I thought it was from bucking & chucking firewood the last couple of days. Just finished my pot of tea, and they both feel better.

I went Carnivore overnight in April 2023 and within 3 weeks I was at the E.R. with cardiac symptoms. I started having aFIB within a few days of going Carnivore, which was worse at night and interfered with my sleep. During the day it wasn't so bad, but at night it was terrible, to the point I was afraid to lie down to go to sleep. I stayed up later and later until like 1-2 in the morning and needing to be up for work by 7. Then in addition I started to have the sensation of blacking out when I would finally drift off to sleep, only to be jolted awake by a surge of adrenaline. So, in addition to an irregular heartbeat, now I also had a rapid heart rate. After 3 weeks of virtually no sleep except maybe an hour or two a night, I was a flipping mess. At the hospital all the tests came back normal, 3 rounds of blood work and multiple EKGs. I had a follow-up with a cardiologist and wore a holter monitor which showed nothing abnormal. I added back in some carbs for a few weeks, and then gradually lowered them again over a period of 3 months, while at the same time also lowering the non-insulin injectable type 2 diabetes medicine I've taken in one form or another for close to 20 years. I've been off the diabetes meds now 8 months, down 80 lbs. I still have a lot of weight to lose, my current weight is 280 and my top weight was 360, at 5'8" and 62 years old. My highest A1C was 10.9 with meds, my last A1C in December 2023 was 6.8 with no meds at that time for 3 months. It's time for labs again, I expect to be around 6.4 (I wear a CGM so I monitor closely). My highest fasting insulin was 77, in December it was a near normal at 19 (I know optimal is under 10, but under 17 is considered normal). My highest c-reactive protein was 55 (FIFTY FIVE) and in December it was 4.3. I'm about 90% carnivore, but probably still getting too many oxalates. I drink Earl Grey tea daily and still eat berries, a small amount of dark chocolate, and on occasion a low carb vegetable like green beans or romaine. Mostly what I eat is grass-fed, grass-finished regeneratively raised beef, pastured and organic poultry and eggs, raw A2 golden guernsey milk, wild caught salmon, butter, cheese, berries, and grass-fed Equip protein powder. I will look for your book. I would love to be in Kelly's group, finances are tight.

[@lisalee0629]

My big question is, most all foods high in oxalates are high in magnesium. It is said that magnesium, when eaten with oxalates, can aid the body in pushing oxalates through without oxalate absorbtion. I am 9 weeks into carnivore and was vegetarian 4 years prior. I ate a “clean” vegetarian diet, many little to no processed foods and tons of fruits and veggies. I also took a ton of supplements and added magnesium to my drinking water that I sipped on throughout the day. I have yet to experience dumping. I know some people definitely have issues with oxalates. But what do you have to say concerning the magnesium part of this equation?

Now managing oxylate dumping after 19 months carnivore. The response of the highest profile carnivore influencers to this issue sometimes borders on cruel and has very much tempered my level of trust and my tendency to "hang onto every word." "Oxalate" is the big "no-no" word for some and people who fear getting kicked out of the club may suffer as a result. I give zero Fs about being in any club at the cost of my well being and I have no tolerance for cruelty. Sorry if this sounds harsh. It's what I've experienced. If you're a carnivore struggling with this issue, please don't be discouraged -- be honest with yourself and listen to what your body is telling you. You DON'T have to give up your carnivore journey and you're NOT a failure. Much love to Sally K. Norton and to those out there who are struggling with figuring this out.

I’m still trying but I have really bad hip tendonitis at the moment and it’s driving me crazy, disrupted sleep, pain, headaches, gout. Today is Monday as I’m watching this, inspired to take up this carnivore life again. Thank you

[@Lovetocrocheteveryday]

This is very insightful information, I was wondering why my kidneys were hurting when I first started carnivore 2 months ago. But for me it’s the sound sleep I get like I haven’t since I was a teenager 🤣 and what I love the most is how good I feel but mostly how calm I am, it’s the strangest thing, I used to have a lot of anxiety and stress and now that’s almost gone, I feel so calm especially when I eat most burgers 😋😌 awesome video!

Kelly I've been on strict carnivore for 18 months. Mostly healed from Psoriasis. Currently going through painful oxalate dumping for the second time. First time was after 1 year. I'm determined to press on towards total health. This video is a huge encouragement. God bless you and Sally.

[@Appleblade]

Another point: I'm 63 now, and in my mid 50s I was getting some joint swelling in my hands, which really bothered me because I play guitar. I noticed one morning about a year into keto (with minimal plants) that my knuckles were back to being flexible and had shrunken back to normal. IDK exactly when they'd healed, but I was stunned, flexing them and wondering if diet had somehow fixed them. Today they're the same... completely free of inflammation... the hands I had always had as a young person.

I’m carnivore for only a few months, but read your book a few months before that. I suffer from bruxism (mostly clenching) and am fracturing my teeth. I wear a night guard and I’ve asked dentists for years why do I do this??!! When I read in your book that when sheep were fed beet greens they started grinding their teeth, I thought whoa, am I finally discovering the root cause of my issues?? I’m still using the night guard, but I’m not having the jaw pain or headaches nearly as much since going carnivore. And I was eating a lot of nuts being low carb. Thank you for this information!!

[@joeoleary9010]

I have bruxism, and was told that it's from the misalignment of my teeth. Not crooked teeth, but the angle of the uppers and lowers isn't correct. In my case I believe this really is the cause, and not stress or diet. That's because there's been times when I'm totally relaxed and about to fall asleep, and my jaw snaps closed like a mouse trap.

I started carnivore in June of 2023. I jumped straight into with IF. The 1st two months were really tough because it threw me into detoxing which I was already knew was going to happen so I just rode it out. I have Hashimoto’s and so other autoimmune problems. After about 3 months I was able to cut my meds in half. My blood work showed I lowering my inflammation levels and my thyroid function was improving. As of today I have lost almost 70 pounds and have about 20 pounds to go to reach my goal weight. I am 71 years old. My health is so much better.

Thanks for the valuable info.

[@wmbr2003]

I've been very sick for 51 years. After finding Sally K. I immediately stopped eating high oxalates and gravitated to more of a carnivore diet. After a few weeks of a total diet change, my friends were asking me what diet plan I was using. There's no description of this diet (keto, Mediterranean, Lion) so I named it the Foxy Diet...it's lots of meat and fat with occasional low oxalate fruits and vegetables. Many of my friends are now on the Foxy Diet and are feeling better and losing weight. Thank you ladies for your encouragement to not give up during the journey towards better health.

[@1truthseeking8]

@@expletivedeleted your first two sentences are clear, the third/last sentence is confusing/I can "almost" but not quite be certain of the direction you meant to communicate a couple aspects...could you clarify that third sentence please? I went RAW CARNIVORE in November and my teeth and gums improved, then RAW Lion diet in January and more improvement, about mid April I added: "Capra Mineral Whey" and started to notice an additional improvement, about two weeks later I restarted freshly squeezed lemon juice from organic lemons mixed with the mineral whey EVEN MORE IMPROVEMENT. So, I ask, because if someone doesn't understand oxalates, then they don't know much...and I worked in a capacity with an oral surgeon for about three years that was one of my former students under a therapeutic training program. And he was top in his field as a table trainer(hands on) for other dentists & doctors for over twenty years at national trainings. And it wasn't until recently that he learned about Oxalates and the missing link in all of this, and he learned about mercury (against his own profession) first hand and almost lost the ability to practice for three years (over 15 years ago) and had his eyes opened on the scientific and education and professional and legal blindness and corruption in just that issue...and even he hadn't known about Oxalates and their role in tartar, destroying dentin & enamel, let alone the rest of the nervous system, endocrine and the rest of the body. So I asked, because MOST "greats" in their fields know VERY LITTLE and are more often than not barking up the wrong tree out of ignorance and pride, not just money or agenda.

Ive heard a lot of carnivore influencers talk about their past and all of their illnesses. Many of these stories, like Sally's story, included years of taking painkillers. They talk about how the C.D. reversed the health conditions they were struggling with but I haven't heard any of them talk about the hell of coming off of the opiates. They almost always mention having been on painkillers so casually as if it's not a huge, almost unsurmountable undertaking coming off of them.

I have recently gotten involved with carnivore because of my husband just having fun doing something different and I am completely blown away by my further results. One thing that I’m very intrigued in is the mental health aspect. I would love to hear more from you and Dr. Chaffee about the beauty of eating meat and what it does for mental health. My mental health is very good because self-care and well-being is a priority in my life besides, more importantly Jesus Christ.

Same here. I am 70, started Carnivore on 1st February 2024. I was paleolish ( eating sweets and breads ), before that, vegetarian. Also, because of acid reflux and continuous back throat drip, got to the Acid watcher diet and began adding spinach smoothies to my daily almond milk! So when starting carnivore my oxalate dumping was evident. Cheeks, eyes, vertigo caused by ears. I added some small amounts of carbs like lettuce and cucumbers, avocados, and started to feel better. Strong heart palpitations started to lower as well. Joint pain, Gerd and IBS gone. Began drinking decaf coffee which caused me problems before. Weight training performance diminished because of the palpitations and fatigue but is getting better now. I still have tartar building on the back of my teeth. I have Sally Norton’s book which helped me to understand much better my body’s symptoms. I recommend it to my daughter and friends. Thank you for this great video!

Re: racing heart At 3 months, I experienced that and went to Urgent care just in case. They sent me to ER! Had MRI, chest scan full panel.

When it gets bad, black tea and tiny pieces of 90% dark chocolate seems to help me the most. The chocolate is so bitter, and the amount so small, it doesn't cause any cravings (it's so far been stored in my fridge for 3 years) and if I'm not dumping, I don't even care for it. But the day I learned about oxalate dumping, was a true revelation! I now know, how to handle it, but it has taken time to learn and get used to.

I had eye issues but i can't say whether it was oxalate dumping or a delayed reaction to botox treatments (to control myokymia and blepharospasms). All I know is that about a week after the treatment and about 3 weeks into almost carnivore (was still eating cabbage and cauliflower) I sarted feeling as though grains of sand were coming out of my lids and traveling across my eyes. Within 12 hours I had zero tear production, no tear film and could not keep my eyes open for longer than 2 seconds. It was a month of hell. Could keep my eyes open max 3 hours per day, early in the morning and then had to keep them pressed shut with a sleep mask or headband the other 21 hours. For over a month. Not dealing with that anymore is bliss. The myokymia and blepharospasms have not started up again yet. Really hoping they wont, as I dont want the botox again, and I also hope that perhaps oxalate toxicity was the root cause. My neurologist could not identify any other condition that could have triggered it and my MRI's were apparently pretty clean. Fingers crossed.
