And they want to blame red meat for cancer. Humans have been eating meat from the start.

Thank you for your video. I'm a 57 year old male and have been suffering with Interstitial Cystitis (with Hunners Lesions) for over four years. I've been to four Urologists and have had numerous treatments, prescriptions, and Pelvic Floor Therapy. Nothing really helped and it was debilitative to the extent that I couldn't go on any longer. I had severe pain in my groin, I passed urinary blood constantly, and at times it was difficult to even walk upright. Not one doctor every brought up diet so I decided to go on an elimination diet. That's how I found the Carnivore Diet. I went 100% in and dealt with the carb. withdrawals. My symptoms started to get better with two weeks, and now (six months later) I'm practically pain free (I mean like 90-95% better). I brought up the theory of Oxalates and IC and he seemed interested, but had never heard of that correlation before. I'm not going back to a urologist any time soon. The Urologist, before the current one I was seeing, was ready to implant a TENS unit into my back to help me with the pain. All it would have taken to help me was to ask me what I was eating and educate themselves on oxalates. I'm anxious to see how I feel six months from now. Good luck to you all.

How have you dealt with the oxalate dumping? I went carnivore (9 months in now) and did not want to eat low oxalate. I got horrible rashes and sharp (so bad I could not walk) joint pains that would pop out of nowhere. I did then read Sally's book but chose to drink potassium citrate in an electrolyte mix to bind and remove them. I did not want to keep eating the oxalate foods other than decaf.

I do suffer mid life migraines, thumb arthritis, breast issues, vulvodinia, and a myriad of white head bumps surfacing all over, but mostly on my face and scalp. Things are improving since reading and following Sally's book. No doctor guided me away from oxalates in any of this bumpy miserable journey😢 All from being vegetarian, trying to keep myself healthy, drinking daily green smoothies (bushels of spinach and other greens, sweet potatoes, etc) I still eat salads.

@@jellybeanvinkler4878 So sorry to hear of your struggles. I am no expert on oxalates, having just learned, as you have. I don't seem to have a problem with Swiss water-decaf coffee. I read Norton's book but I chose not to continue consuming oxalates because I felt it would just prolong the excess in my tissues and slow the detox down. I know we can make our own oxalates but constantly consuming them is of no value, to me personally. Obviously, you need to follow your medical professional's advice and then make your own judgment call. Mine were unaware of oxalates in context of people other than those with kidney stones following a low ox diet. So I had to seek out more informed professionals. What I did read was that the medical establishment does recommend consuming citrates to bind to oxalates and safely excrete them. I chose to drink a potassium citrate based electrolyte mix daily to bind them as they make their way out of my body. It seems to help me and I have had very few dumping episodes since. If I do feel I am dumping on more rare occasions now (strange stabbing pains in joints, etc.) I increase my electrolyte water intake and that seems to help. I don't go too much over because citrates can cause digestive issues.

Stared & did keto 4 months but was still eating high oxalates almonds and cashews and raspberries was still having some digestive issues ibs bloating ect... Switched to carnivore 3 weeks ago to try to isolate and then bring back vegetables to see what was irritating my gut about 4 days in on carnivore oxilate dumping started happening in my joints things that had been feeling great started hurting again... I had started watching videos about carnivore and a few people had mentioned oxalate dumping but i knew nothing about them then stumbled on Sally Norten video and all of a sudden it all made sense! Your video and a few others are making it more and more clear whats going on and what i need to remove from my diet. So thankful for all the doctors and health practitioners who put these videos out there! regular doctors are of very little use in metabolic medicine and im finding most illnesses and problems are caused by metabolic problems!

I can 100 % attest to that! 23 years on disability and bedridden bcs of it. And Im a nutritional therapist that ate "healthier" than anyone else I knew. The sicker I got, the "healthier" I ate...and the sicker I got. It didn't make any sense! Thank God that I found Sally K Norton. I've been to over 40 of her classes. I'm 2 years low oxalate now and with my background I have several more years of clearing/dumping to go. Some things have really improved so I'm on the right path.🎉

That many classes? Why? I ate “healthy” plant diets trying to heal my autoimmune diseases, and I only got worse, and collected more autoimmune diseases. Lovely. Now trying to figure out why my arthritis is now worse than ever after 3 months on this diet. Are you improving still? What’s improved?

Excellent presentation, thank you! I am 61 years old and had fibromyalgia and interstitial cystitis for 30 years. Also low iron, depression, and trigger fingers. It got worse on keto, as the keto docs promotes eating almonds. I was eating almond biscuits topped with almond butter along with a glass of almond milk. Sally Norton said that almond biscuits are oxalate bombs! I also ate spinach, sweet potatoes, dark chocolate and drank black tea. Now after ketovore/low oxalate I have zero pain, trigger fingers healed, as did the depression. For the first time in my adult life, my iron is in the normal range. I am a retired pathologists' assistant and used to spend my days dissecting people and people parts. I used to see pockets of small brown stones in prostate glands. They were noted but not analyzed. I wondered what they were made of? I also wonder what percentage of the crystals in atherosclerotic plaques are oxalates? Oxalate crystals look similar to cholesterol crystals (from degraded red blood cell membranes in the clots that form plaques). Standard tissue processing dissolves both kinds of crystals and the pathologist sees the needle-like forms where the crystals were. There are alternate processing techniques that would preserve the crystals and a special stain (Alizarin Red S) that could be used to identify the oxalate crystals, but it is never ordered.

Went on a keto diet and foolishly started to make desserts and bread with almond flour. I lost 18 kgs but when I stopped eating almond bread , cake and almonds themselves I started to get milky white urine, joint pains and my eyes felt like needles were in them. My teeth also started to produce white flecks when I flossed. I thought my enamel was flaking. Then I stumbled across Sally Norton and went AHA....Oxylate dumping. No more almonds or spinach ( or most plants) for me. The world owes Sally a huge debt. Buy the book....its amazing. Good Job Doc.

I went 'mostly' carnivore 2 years ago.... lost 30 pounds and psoriasis completely disappeared

I recall as a child I woke up one morning unable to open my eyes. My mother bathed them with warm water, problem solved and not much was thought about it.... Fast forward to a few months ago when I went from a Keto diet to a Carnivore diet, I woke up one morning unable to open my left eye, my eye was very sore the previous day. Co-incidentally I had just watched a carnivore vlog the previous night where a woman was talking about what happened to her with Oxalate dumping, so I knew right away what caused it. I bathed it in warm water and...problem solved. Thinking back to my childhood, we were quite poor so lived off the land as much as possible. I suspect mum had put in a lot of greens over winter and we lived off them, when the season was over, back to other foods. I don't recall it ever happening again, nor do I recall my siblings having any problems, but it certainly did happen to me as a child. Also...nice to have an answer to what had happened so long ago....:)

I have Oxalate poisoning from my superfood smoothies I thought were good for me, it takes 10 years to clear the nano crystals, I am getting close to 9 more years eating the Carnivore way, I am feeling better and getting stronger my eyes have improved. I have Sally K Norton’s wonderful book.

Doctors aren't generally educated about diet anyway, so blaming them for not knowing is NO different than YOU not knowing.

@@ianstuart5660 I've been overdosing on vitamin C for fifty years now. No problems with kidney stones(or anything else, on zero medication). The body does not 'excrete' vitamin C. That is to say that there is no ACTIVE mechanism by which the body voids vitamin C. When the serum level is above saturated then the amount of C that is washing out with water exceeds the micro-tubules ability to pump it back into the body, and it is excreted in the urine. The body is never 'trying' to get rid of vitamin C, it is desperately trying to retain all that it can. I believe that it is shown at Vitamin C and Cardiovascular Disease: An Update - PubMed that at least 2000 mg (2 gm) is beneficial for 75 Kg human. N.B.

Bruh back in 2022 I took 1-2g of vitamin c (acerola cherry powder) daily thinking it was boosting my immunity and skin health. I ended up getting a kidney stone four months later and then some mild ED. Horrible pains. Apparently vitamin c releases oxalates when it gets metabolized by the body. These oxalates then combine with calcium and form calcium oxalate stones. I got my kidney stone analyzed and it was indeed a calcium oxalate stone. And now I hear people following some Linus Pauling therapy of high dose vitamin C. I call bs.

Carnivore here, previously diagnosed with PMDD, chronic depression, anxiety, etc. Carnivore is absolutely the cure. - I'm just not at the end of your video, and I'm also autistic with many improved symptoms since going carnivore.

I always laugh when people call the carnivore diet being "restrictive". Really? Eating different meats, eggs, fish, and maybe cheese is restrictive? How about having chronic inflammation, joint pain, IBS, GERDS, insomnia, depression, diabetes, and so much more. I find THOSE to be restrictive on my life, not eating a bit of meat instead of sugary junk or going to any restaurant I want.

Thanks for sharing all of this. I'm reading Sally's book now. Tried carnivore and lost some weight, but both my husband and I found it brought challenges with it that we weren't comfortable with. Namely, low energy and symptoms of low blood sugar. I bought some salt supplements, but we just can't afford the better ones on a regular basis for two people. Besides, if I have to supplement in order to avoid feeling light-headed, that doesn't seem to be sustainable nor the optimal path. I have cold-induced histamine intolerance, so I'm familiar with a fairly unexplored physical reaction to foods. I got a kidney stone about 3 years ago, but didn't know what kind. This path of educating myself on oxalates has been so illuminating. After Paul Saladino's hitch in his carnivore path over to including some fruits into his diet, I'm even more ok with adding some fruit and vegetables to a primarily meat based diet. This recent piece of the puzzle, oxalates, is helping me to tailor my plan. Again, thank you!

Did you transition slowly? If not, it'd take 6 months for your gut to get its act together. If so, the below may apply. That said, yeah, the beginning is rough. It sounds like you two are undereating, which is very easy to do if you're coming from any other diet and you're not used to having higher amounts of fat. I had the extra same issue when I started (no transition) and I was constantly fatigued, tired, headaches, no energy, etc. Still have trouble sometimes and it's generally due to undereating thanks to low digestion and my gallbladder not used to anything but low fat (plus, I have histamine intolerance too and it's a PIA fr). Try eating smaller but more frequent meals (2MAD or 3MAD) to get your digestion perked up. You can try ACV/lemon water but it may cause histamine issues for you. Re: electrolytes, you can use Redmond's Real Salt and that seems to work well for people. I use their electrolyte powder but its more expensive than their salt.

I’d love to know a) how many oxalate sufferers have been on Abx, allowing Candida/yeast/ Mold to overgrow? b) why is there calcium in the tissues anyway - for the oxalate to bind to? Calcium should be in the bones. c) copper toxicity could be a cause of the excess calcium - very common in women

Very interesting! Keto helped me to get rid of fibromyalgic tendon pains and diarrhea. I still suffer from tinnitus and insomnia (waking up at 3 am and not falling back to sleep for a few hours). Sometimes I get back the tendon pains for a few days. I think it is food related, but do not know which. I think nuts, sweet potato, chocolat, croissants (I fall off the keto wagon so now and then). Lately I have very dry eyes and blurred vision. Is it from menopause or from oxalates or oxalate dumping?

Are we talking the same thing as salicylates? The effects certainly seem to be the same. I was diagnosed with salicylate sensitivity over thirty years ago and have been virtually a carnivore ever since. Brisbane. It seems, the word "Salicylate" seems to have gone into obscurity. The condition was very real.

Quite possibly. Hand thought of tonsil stones but yes maybe right.

I think amount of oxalates that is excreted during dump can vary from person to person and can be more than 50mg. It can be excreted through urine, feces and even skin. I’ve stated to have huge diarrhea after a few months of carnivore diet. I don’t know if it happened by itself or because I’ve started to supplement with some minerals and vitamins. And it wasn’t only it, but also sore throat, generally feeling bad, skin issues, depression and anxiety. So I’ve added some black tea and dark chocolate to slow it down.

@@TechnoViking__ because this is how science behind oxalates works. If you will go zero oxalates your body starts dumping it like hell, and you feel really bad. Because the most damage you receive when oxalates in your bloodstream (dumping is the process of pulling it out of the tissues and putting in blood first before it gets excreted via kindness or other paths). In order to slow down this process you consume small amount of oxalates, around 100mg a day. Because clearing can takes years and you don’t want to feel sick during this time. It doesn’t matter if food is high or low oxalates, total amount is matter. In case with dark chocolate it will be small portion, like 20 grams. Hope it make sense. There is huge amount of information about oxalates on KZread.

not direct medical advice, but it's possible the makings of the stones were there and building, hard to tell, could also be due to oxalate dumping and new formation. hopefully you aren't in too much pain or trouble with them.

I can not tell you for sure, but a lot of the anti meat research is very rigged and bias. Blame the meat in the hamburger meal instead of the high sugar bun, ketchup, fries in seed oil and pop. But by the Adventist cult food industry always blame the meat. Crazy, but very rich cult. Think Kellogg and Post. Most nutritional studies in North America are Adventist. Harvard sold their scientific soul to the Adventist cult agenda over half a century ago. Their latest study says red meat causes diabetes. Other scientists, using the same data and methods were able to show that water causes cirrhosis of the liver. So stay away from the demon drink water 😅.

It seems irresponsible to say that some people might want to just “white knuckle it” when it comes to oxalate dumping. Oxalate dumping can lead to serious problems and hospitalization.

So a 50-year-old woman would require 150 years of no oxalate diet to get rid of her accumulated oxalates? Is that right? (2737500mg / 50mg / 365 days = 150 years)

The video effectively elucidates the detrimental effects of oxalates on the body, yet it overlooks the underlying reasons behind why some individuals are affected while others aren't. While it briefly touches upon genetic predisposition, a significant factor lies in the detrimental impact of antibiotics, which decimate the beneficial bacteria responsible for oxalate degradation. Reflecting on how antibiotics have negatively impacted humanity over the past 75 years is indeed disheartening. Also, just so you know, there is a test that detects Oxalates, it's called OAT test..

I just have to rest, sit, foot massage , epsom salt footsoaks, until pain, swelling etc subside. No normal life here, experiment with adding a few oxalates back in. Resent nsaids that make ears ring and neurontin which is too 'stoned', only use when necessary. Drs.have no answers for'idiopathic small fiber neuropathy' arthritis. Pray a lot, study, experiment. never give up..slow improvement makes all worthwhile
