Preach! 

It's scary how many people look to celebrities for important information.  Good bloody grief!

I'll admit that I haven't read all of the threads you generously provided.

But is this diet similar to the Adkins Diet? (I did lose lots of weight when I observed that diet.)

@berdie

I'd be shocked if anyone had consumed all the material I posted! It's a LOT! I've been researching for quite a while, and doing so has required a significant investment of my time.

Yes, there is some similarity between Atkins and keto/carnivore. I don't know the particulars of Atkins, but a lot of the people who are now carnivores were once on Atkins. My BFF's son was on it. He lost a lot of weight, felt great, had energy and, best of all, got off his insulin shots. Human nature being what it is, he got sloppy with it and eventually gave up trying to get back on the wagon.

Back when I was a university prisoner with a mind ready to be molded, we had to come up with a diet plan for a diabetic. At that time, the low-fat, high carb, craze was on

That stupid food pyramid from the late 80s /early 90s was probably more responsible for making this country sick than anything the government has ever done.


I new folks who would buy low-fat or no fat processed cookies and eat the whole bag. Fat signals to your body that you’ve had enough to eat. Sugar and simple carbs do not.

Besides, as you age, you should eat more protein

Are Vegetables Bad for Us? by Dr. Shawn Baker

Interesting commentary's.

So first, to Dr. Berry, I'm not giving up my mangoes or Sugar Bee apples...sorry, not sorry. 

However, I do find the discussions by both about the potential harmful effects of veggies and fruit compelling. It does make sense that nature develops its own protective mechanisms. I like fruits and veggies, so this one will be a challenge to me. I have gout and to avoid flareups, all the research I've read has me avoiding the very foods they recommend and eating that which they discourage...it's a conundrum for me. 

As for the push to plant based diets by the "medical community", fascist gov'ts., et al., I can't help but wonder if it's not all part of their push for population reduction. I'd venture that pound for pound, you can get more nutrition out of critters than plants. I'd also venture that it takes less land and probably less water to raise those critters than to grow a commensurate amount of crops.

You're gonna be busy for a while.  As you view them, the algorithm will offer up a lot of suggestions. They tend to be long and -- sorry 'bout this -- meaty.  Enjoy your journey.

Maybe don't listen to their recommendations? Maybe hear from others who have found relief outside of what their healthcare professionals told them? 

Here's a freshly uploaded video of someone who was able to turn around a lot of conditions plus the video description:

I attribute the CARNIVORE LIFESTYLE with actually saving my life! I have come back to life from serious brain surgery and cancer surgery, and chronic conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, kidney stones, hypertension, eczema, and gout. Here is my story.

BTW, I, too, have wondered if various recommendations and bad advice might be rooted in evil attempts to depopulate the planet. Especially of geezers like me. Useless eaters and all that jazz.

@AllThatJazzZ Don't apologize for the meaty part. I'm a carnivore by nature. 

I have read quite a few sources on what is good/bad to eat for Type 2 diabetes, and the contradictions are insane. Depending on what source, cardboard is best, followed by plastic. Throw whatever food is in the package away and eat the wrapper. Sheesh!

So, I'm my own lab rat...

You have a point there and thanks for sharing your inspiring story.

My apology wasn't because of the meat aspect but rather for the ridiculous but irresistible pun. It wasn't intentional as I've always used that term, mostly in discussing a truly great sermon or lecture. But here I was discussing a carnivore way of eating and I didn't have enough control over myself to refrain from the corny pun. I have no self control. 


From your remarks, may I assume that you're diabetic? If so, may I point you in the direction of an alternate organization that has been developed by many in the carnivore community to replace the American Diabetes Association. I think Dr. Berry spearheaded it, and it's finally come to fruition.*


Search YouTube for American Diabetes Society + Dr. Berry. Also find videos by Dr. Suneel Dhand on the subject of how awful ADA is. The carnivore community is disgusted with the ADA and the financial interests behind it.


This may be a starting place.

For the record, it's not my story. It's the story of Old Guy Carnivore, one of the carnivore influencers I follow. I've been following him for over a year, and this is the first time I'd heard about all of his health issues. It just happened to come up for me as a recommendation after you had mentioned your problem with gout. Hope it helps with your situation.

I lost over 60 percent of my body weight on a bariatric diet, but alas I put back on about 20 lbs after I hit goal weight and started to add bread to my diet.

Why do carbs taste so good but are fattening ?
I really do like a bagel with cream cheese and lox for breakfast

It has been a surprise to me to learn how much I'd struggle with giving up carbs. The addiction is stronger than I could have imagined. It's a far more acceptable addiction to the general public than tobacco or alcohol, so others are at the ready to encourage you to give in to the delicious carbs in the form of Mexican food, pizza, pasta, burgers, etc. Those who have successfully become carnivores say that the carb cravings went away once they were X amount of time into that WOE.

I can't imagine wanting carbs will ever go away but they could be minimized to not to many

@AllThatJazzZ

I just know they taste good.

Well, it's almost that time again. January is World Carnivore Month and is when a lot of people decide to jump on the bandwagon. I was hoping to be one of the hundreds of people whose testimony starts with January of a certain year. Sadly, I fell on my face, seriously underestimating my addiction to carbs.

This past year I have learned a lot, not the least of which is that packaged foods have literally been designed to create an addiction. It's a fine science that our government has allowed big food to engage in. And everyone gets rich at our expense.

Well, Trump won in November and part of his victory means that the corruption of big pharma, big food, big medicine, big government will be addressed by RFK, Jr. and others within his orbit.

MAHA, baby!

Anyway, I'm already a believer in LCHF. I just need to overcome my carb addiction, so I'm gearing up for January. Taking in fewer carbs, eating more meat and animal-based food until I'm ready to step into 2025 fully carnivore. Geezerhood presents with more maladies and limitations, and as I see so many others overcoming these, I think "why not me too?" Pray for me.
