My son who is six years old, has horseshoe kidney and is tube-fed. I've been cooking him eggs and beef and blending it for his tube feeds. That's 90% of his diet. Doctors are worried and hitting me with the protein kidney harm myth. I haven't been able to find any info directly about horseshoe kidney. Just wanna make sure it's safe. It's been over a year and everything seems fine. Before that they had him on Nourish which is plant based.

Why is he tube feed?

I asked management in public dentistry here in Sweden if their national guidelines were laws . They said no . I said : well then. I am currently black listed as a dentist due, NOT to my skills, but rather to my convictions and difficulty to "cooperate". They are right . I won't bow or bend . Besides ,they had a project trying to establish the evidence base of public dentistry. Turned out they had none and I pointed this out in relation to their slogan that public dentistry has to be evidence based ........ As I told my colleagues if I shut up I don't like myself - much worse than accepting that they don't like me. On the other hand : a Swedish doctor went to work in Denmark . He asked some experienced nurses what the guidelines were in a certain case . They asked : "are you not a doctor?" 😉

[@anthonychaffeemd]

Make sure that you are drinking enough water, try increasing from where you are and see how you go. Also remember that sometimes kidney function can look like it's going down if you're eating more protein because urea goes up if you're eating more protein, and sometimes creatinine can too. But this doesn't mean that it's not filtering out properly, just that you are eating more protein. If you check your cystatin C you can get a more accurate reading of your kidney function that isn't going to be skewed by the protein you are eating. Good luck!

When a clinician says that the patient will be non compliant, it’s based on the incorrect assumption that all patients who were unhealthy and overweight were due to non-compliance to the recommended sad diet. This was always wrong. This shows that they are arguing from a conclusion based on an assumption. They’ve refused to believe their patients for at least the last forty years. NOT a very scientific method of thinking by the majority of doctors today. They literally tell patients that they are hypochondriacs and other invalidating nonsense.

Foamy Urin means you are spilling proteins, nitrogen in the urine. Frequent urination with weak stream or flow is sign of compromised kidney function.

[@harendram]

@markuswillard I had the same issue and after investigation which was a biopsy and the final conclusion was I have autoimmune disease and affecting my kidney. Please get your self checked. I have reduced my protein intake for now to 0.8gms per KG of body weight.

Foods high in sodium lead some people to CKD 4, 5. Can Keto diet help in that case?

[@debbiebeatty8449]

Those are typically processed foods laden with unhealthy seed oils and carbohydrates. The myopic medical profession ignores everythimg but the sodium.

Hello, hoping to get an answer, I know it has nothing to do with this topic but my son has thalassemia trait(Mediterranean anemia), just wondering if eating meat can help improve his numbers, is this reversible if not should I be concerned about this condition??

[@hectorherrera1829]

I have it too..been on carnivore 3 weeks now and white blood cells went down so did my red blood cells..meat is full of iron which your son needs.. along with other nutrients...it doesn't hurt to go carnivore or keto

[@TheRealTommyBear33]

i dont think red meat kills you .I am going ketovore myself I tried carnivore again but I honestly love salads and veggies and feel much better eating both. I do not believe we are ment to never eat a veggie or a fruit. I do not eat fruits as a type 2 But i noticed when i eat keto stuff like califlower and cream cheese did not spike my sugar. And honestly meat only is not tasty to me as I have always loved veggies. I know wierd a fat guy who loves veggies. I have quit ranch and seed oils I just eat the veggies all natural. Like some chicken and veggies are amazing low calorie and etc etc and dont spike me off to no where.

I don't share the optimism regarding the future of healthcare.

[@Kas33345]

I have had so many positive results since starting Carnivore. reversed my prediabetes and IR. Lost 23 " of fat and 30lbs. Look and feel amazing! I was told it would destroy my kidneys. So far not seeing that, or even close to it, even when doing labs. Believe it or not I am now hearing this from my Veterinarian regarding my cat! Cats being obligated carnivores I am not sure how this would be, as they have been eating meat for 1000's of years. She said they are not human so, their bodies work differently. Of course just like us the Big Pet food and pharma are involved in this so? Obesity being an issue with our pets, and the same chronic illnesses, I cant help but think they are suffering from Metabolic issues just like we are. I have yet to find a Vet who looks at diet in this way for our pets. Would be great to have one who is in the 'Know' start to speak out on this.

Just got blood work done. Dr concerned about my creatinine level. Am i correct in think that this can be normal due to a high meat intake?

[@verborgenewahrheit1594]

How many meals a day? Do you take pain killers? What else aside from meat do you eat?

[@davidmcclatchey2133]

@verborgenewahrheit1594 Monday to friday two meals a day. Late breakfast and dinner. Usually beef and eggs. Sometimes, I will a little cheese and a piece of fruit. I drink coffee and tea. No painkillers unless I have a headache, which isn't often.

Does anyone know if Dr. Chaffee has a video on things he does that aren't dietary? I'm curious what his take on like soap, shampoo, toothpaste, lotion, etc is. A lot of these are also putting chemicals in our bodies so wondering his theory there. Thanks in advance.

He either used products that are tallow based or simply uses tallow (Beef Fat). He doesn’t like ordinary shampoos snd skin cream that are full of harmful chemicals.

They are showing that meat is beneficial. Meat being bad for kidneys is a modern myth.

Can people with AFIB do keto that’s a lot of fat? Anyone

[@lorrainespiers532]

I don't see why not. It's a rhythm disorder. I would speculate it would help.

[@Baptized_in_Fire.]

Fatty red meat is appropriate human food. Carbohydrates are contraindicated in human diet.

[@MelzCarnivoreJourney]

People who have AFIB have resolved it by doing Dr. James DiNicolantinio salt protocol. He wrote, "The salt fix." It's on Amazon. Basically, AFIB has to do with nerves inability to fire correctly. The nerves require electrolytes to fire properly. Elements like calcium, potassium, magnesium, and sodium are necessary for that process. Although i agree with his assertion that salt has erroneously gotten a bad rap. I don't agree with Dr. James DiNicolantinio's other ideas. Salt, along with fat, was vilified by the sugar companies' research as a way to obfuscate the truth about their product. Sugar is basically addictive poison that's killing us slowly and horribly.

Kerry over at KZbin channel called HomeSteadHow had a heart arrhythmia his entire life. He went carnivore, and it is now gone. He openly discusses it in some of his videos. I watch a lot of carnivore videos. It seems to me I've seen one where the person interviewed specifically stated they had Afib and carnivore helped. Carnivore also does not have to be extremely high fat. Some people do well with moderate or even lower fat. Amount of fat you feel good on and keeps bowels regular varies from person to person. Hope this helps
