CORRECTION: Shawn Baker has been doing the carnivore diet for about 2 years, not 7. (He started experimenting with low carb paleo about 7 years ago)
Website: meatheals.com/
This video is a break down of what I thought to be common concerns when it comes to the carnivore diet, recently popularized by Jordan Peterson & His daughter Mikhaila Peterson. Some might call it "extreme" or "dangerous" or "a really bad idea," but is it? Many people are having several health conditions healed by eating this diet, some are having improvements despite having been doing a paleo diet or keto diet.
People are having relief from arthritis, psoriasis, and various inflammatory conditions, and yes they are experiencing weight loss too.
But what about nutrients? Isn't a lack of vitamin C going to give them all scurvy? What about constipation due to no fiber? And why would cutting out plants heal people? This is what the video addresses.

One correction: Shawn Baker has been doing the carnivore diet for about 2 years, *not 7*. *Re: +Vincent Vendetta on Inuits having higher rates of heart disease, low life expectancy et cetera* The studies you linked look at *modern inuit* , making them irrelevant: [pubmed/18457208 pubmed/12535749 pubmed/19800772 pubmed/20548980] For the studies to be relevant, they would need to be looking at Inuit *before* Westernization, i.e. 1910 or earlier, and maybe much earlier than that. Amber O'Hearn pointed out that as early as 1857, Inuit in Greenland had had Flour and Sugar introduced to their diet. [1] The first study looks at at Inuit from 1989-2003 [2] The second is a study from 2003, what time period the data is coming from is unclear, but it's very unlikely it comes from early 1900's. [3] The data is from 2000-2004 [4] Data is from 2009 or 2010. (This is important to clarify, so I've added it to the pinned comment for visibility)

[@magicdaveable]

Amber O'Hearn has been a Carnivore for over 7 years. Humans are Obligate Carnivores. The statement "may help some people" is bullshit. It will help ALL people. In the 1500's Scurvy was treated with Fresh Raw Red Meat. It is NOT a recent discovery. 2.5 Million Years eating Animal Fat and Animal Protein precipitated human evolution. There is a reason why our Caecum is a Vestigial Organ called the Appendix. Vegetable matter was reintroduced to the human diet 10,000 years ago is also the "dawn of chronic disease" in humans. The arrogance of the medical community is truly annoying. The problem with so many people changing their dietary regimen to a much healthier animal fat/meat diet threatens the medical community's profits. Big Pharma after all controls mainstream medicine. I eat fat/meat. I am much healthier since no longer eating plants.

[@dragsigma]

Great video, my one complaint would be there aren't significant enough caveats in this analysis. Obviously, you only sought to find the positives to figure out why this kind of diet could work, but it fails to ignore why it could also potentially be dangerous in the long run due to increased rates of heart disease, and recent links to different kinds of cancer. I do think maybe this video would be too long were you to add all of these caveat. I also think though, that it is clear that a lot of people now rely on you for informative actionable content and you should take that power with a certain amount of caution and responsibility. Again, love the video just thought I could pitch in my two cents.

[@Artbug]

That's it... I'm done eating food altogether. This is becoming too difficult.

[@Witchygirl22]

[@Smexyyellow]

You could always become a breatharian and just live off the five elements. No needs for food.

[@feartheghus]

Artbug first we shouldn’t eat fats, then we can’t eat sugars, then we remember that fats are ok, then we hate meat for other reasons and for the fat but whatever, now we can’t eat vegetables... All the while eggs go in and out of style. Let’s face it, all this diet crap is just based on trends, just eat meat, vegetables, if you can you should have dairy, eat enough carbs to fuel you if and when you need it and don’t when you don’t and remember that you get energy from other food groups too, eat a variety of things whenever you can, variety helps greatly in most cases. Drink water when thirsty, don’t when not, only exception being that if you don’t feel thirsty for some weird reason but you know you need more water drink it then too, and drink during meals just because you’ll probably be thirsty then anyway and it’s easier to eat and drink near the same time for most people.

[@marzipancutter8144]

I can only suppose most diets have merit very much because of this, that any and all foods put a strain on your system, which is why technically it could be beneficial to abstain from whatever. The way I imagine that is to compare our bodies to any machinery, of course running it will leave wear on its parts, and not putting in fuel will stop it from running temporarily. Shutting our bodies off permanently obviously isn't an option, so we have to go with whatever is the next best thing, which is taking in as little as possible. The various approaches then are limiting oneself to one thing and specialising ones body to handle only that, or just eating a little bit of everything but keeping it in amounts small enough to be inconsequential (aka a balanced diet). TL;DR Everything is toxic in a high enough dosage so just deal with it

There is one more factor, that this video made me think about yet has not been discusted. I talking about the natural seasonality of certain plants. If plants are actively causing small scale harm to our bodies, then one might hypothesise that not being able to access all sort of plants and vegetables all year round would mitigate the effect of the plants' self protection mechanism. The foods unvailability would allow the body time for recovery. (kind of like exercising for 45 mins a day VS exercising all day every day of your entire life) Just a thought I had.

Does anyone stop and think their fitness might be improving because they stop eating sugar and carbs and not because they're only eating veggies???

[@xracecar]

the main reason why people gain weight is because of the carbs. there are two other sources, but don't have the same effects as carbs, and carbs can get turned into one of the two other sources. carbs are the first source, they have the most energy out of all three sources. the body processes them within 18-24 hours, and then sit in the liver for 48 hours. after those 48 hours, they get processed into fat, unless you utilize the carbs the next day or so. fats are the second source of energy. it's when you feel sluggish and don't want to do anything. you'll burn it, not as fast as carbs though. the fat wont be used up as energy if you haven't taken care of the carbohydrates first. this is why low-carb diets give great results. the last source of energy is protein. protein is what makes up your muscles, and a bunch of other stuff. they are used extensively throughout the body, and when coupled with a low-carb diet, weight loss happens. unless you weight-lift, you'll continue to lose weight until there's a low fat percentage in your body.

What about seed plants? Like avocado for example. Aren't they supposed to be eaten?

Have you come across information regarding this during your research? I would be very interested to know.

[@arcuscerebellumus8797]

I was just about to ask the same question. Think it might be not entirely true since some seed plants actually want nutrients that are around the seed to be decompose by bacteria in the soil.

I have to buy and prepare my own food and it’s beef, pork, eggs, chicken and butter with salt, pepper and occasionally garlic. I can drink tea in moderation although I know I’d do better without it but I’m not willing to give it up. I know it’s anecdotal but I can’t deny the proof my body has given me….meat equals my health and well being.

I've been on carnivore 2 months and am suffering a terrible flare up of hemorrhoids! :( I've already ordered some magnesium citrate. Does it really make a difference? If not I'm screwed. I'll have to face a doctor who will just scream at me to give up carnivore which was working so well until now and 'get lots of fibre' 🙄

​@TubeTheWorld drinking more water could help as theres some creatine in meat which dehydrates things.

Great video. However, one thing that needs be emphasized when it comes to a carnivore diet is that animal fat - lots of it - is very important. Eating just meat with little fat won't serve you much.

I've been on a carnivore diet for four weeks for trying to get rid of SIBO. I'm feeling better than ever, and after seeing this video I now know why. The aim was to end carnivore diet after a month, but after seeing this I really have to think my strategy a new.

[@nerudaad]

Yikes! Couldn't do it longer than a month. But it helped to balance my gut bacteria.

[@rangerdoc1029]

Same with keto for me. Did it 3 years ago to lose weight. Goal achieved in 8 months but I stayed on the diet because I felt better than ever in my life.

@@AB-gt8ci carnivore diet helped, but only momentarily. What has helped me in a long run, was learning about the root cause, body's fight-flight-freeze response, and of my nervous system.

I went carnivore nose to tail after watching Shawn Baker on Health Theory. Awesome results. Red meat is the perfect food for humans. Red meat, eggs, and fish, we don't need anymore. Say goodbye to inflammation, cravings, fatigue... and enjoy your life full of energy

@@ammicelly our stomach acid is more acidic than most scavengers. Likely because we were first scavengers before we were facultative carnivores. Dead rotten meat could've been what we ate before evolving our ability to hunt

Ill do everyone a favor. Vegetarian or carnivorous, just steer clear of any preservatives, sugar or processed foods. If I had to guess, it's the reason why people say they feel better than ever on both vegetarian and carnivorous diets. It's the 3 common characteristics of both diets.

Wild Cod and Pasture raised animals. Try getting hold of *these* at your local Supermarket. Honestly, this is all very interesting, but most of what you recommend is unavailable these days to the overwhelming majority of the Earth's population ;O)

[@DominicMV]

I mean judging by your comment, you live in a first world country. Now I'll give you that idk where you live, BUT you have a butcher shop that raises and slaughters animals within a 45 minute drive of your location. They are everywhere you just need to find them. Wild fresh fish, I admit, can be a little harder depending on where you live, I happen to live about 150 miles from the coast so I have a fresh fish market of fish caught yesterday in the Atlantic, delivered this morning, about 45 from my home. Those are the highest quality and freshest foods, however many supermarket chains have been getting with the health food trend (whole foods) and their meats, while older, can still be relatively fresh and untampered

Before I started the carnivore diet, I used to think it could give people scurvy, then I educated myself. Scurvy is the inability to turn proline and lysine into hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine without Vitamin C as the catalyst. it turns out meat is rich in both hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine which can be absorbed from the gut and used by the body so much less hydroxylation needs to take place, hence less vitamin C needed. P.S. Those sailors on long expeditions were eating carbs, not meat!

[@0ptimal]

Nice

[@chrisinreallife2022]

Ya, when some of the crew on Napolean's ships were getting scurvy (I believe it was the low ranking ones who were only fed mainly breads), they fed them horse meat to cure it.

Because the video is examining why some people like the diet. It's not about the counter argument. It's trying to understand why some people might find it beneficial.

[@notninja97]

When eating keto or carnivore, do not be afraid to eat a lot of saturated fats, adding salt to your food. Fat has nutrients that you need when you’re not eating carbs.

[@iCanSeeWhatMostCant]

What about cooking the food? does that destroy the toxins in plants?

[@WhatIveLearned]

+facevalue Depends on the plant. For example if I recall correctly the cyanogenic glycosides in cassava, Yes. (sufficient) cooking will remove the hydrogen cyanide. On the other hand, oxalate for example cannot be cooked out

[@Goabnb94]

Depends. Kidney beans, for instance, can be toxic if raw. But cooked they are safe. The canned/bottled stuff are precooked for your convenience.

[@mikahina3909]

you dont want to cook our veggies too much though as sulphoraphane for example will be inactivated with too much heat. And its iportant for our liver to eat raw food at times as well, and most raw food we eat are salads.

[@rcdinkins]

I beleive in the very same video by Dr Rhonda Patrick on Sulphorophane she brings up the point about cooking Broccoli does in fact lower the availability of Sulphorophane.
