And I love how he is so low key and supportive. I find it very restful to listen to Dr. Westman. I tend to be high strung and anxious if life is more stressful than normal. Listening to Dr. Westman calms me down and regain my equilibrium.

I’m so happy I made an appointment to see you! With so much misinformation, it is gratifying to have a knowledgeable and compassionate doctor who can guide my health. The results are stunning even after a few months. I’m excited to continue the journey with trusted oversight from a qualified clinician. I cannot thank you enough.

That statin decider is fantastic! As far as I can tell doctors are not using it, but rather a simple LDL threshold. Madness!!

We are cattle farmers in Alabama- my father got Alpha-Gal last summer while putting up new fence for the cows - he was bitten by the Lone-Star tick. It’s been a horrific experience for him at age 82. Everything in life has changed for him. I hope to interview him for my own channel to bring awareness because I have seen so many social media influencers say people cannot be allergic to meat. This is untrue. It is a life threatening illness.

Ticks are a huge menace today and most people are oblivious to how dangerous they are if they carry diseases. I know two people whose health have been destroyed by the diseases contracted from tick bites. Some of the diseases are: Anaplasmosis, Babesiosis, Ehrlichiosis, Lyme Disease, Powassan Virus Disease., Borrelia miyamotoi Disease, Borrelia mayonii Disease, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF). There are other diseases tick-born diseases too that can seriously damage human health.

Regarding cancer treatment, it has been shown, I believe that a total reduction of sugar in the diet will slow down tumor growth, which will slow or even stop Cancer tumors.

Thank you Dr. Westman.

Good that you identified the acquired meat allergy. The Tick issue is a problem in Australia also.

Dr. Westman, thanks for another awesome video. I have been a registered nurse working in intensive care for the past several years but just got accepted into nurse practitioner school. I have been studying nutrition and also read your books and have been following your podcasts and videos for some time now. Do you ever allow for nurse practitioner students to precept with you for clinical’s?

EXCELLENT Dr, Westman great chat.

The massive biological contamination of micro plastics in the body disrupting endocrines that could help in staving off the sugar, hybridized refined enriched bleached grain products ect play a crucial role as to how fast metabolic disease occurs since the levels of contamination are so severe now. I first came about the report and discussion of micro plastics back in late 2008 so it's Intel that's been awhile.

I concluded I wouldn't get another mammogram back in 2009, for the same 2 reasons: the problem of false positives and the slight exposure to radiation. And now that I'm carnivore I feel a bit impervious to cancers.

There is a physician who has a KZread video where he discusses the decrease in deaths due to breast cancer and he said that numerous studies have found that mammograms have nothing to do with the decrease in breast cancer deaths. Improvements in surgical techniques and treatments are responsible for saving women and men who were diagnosed with breast cancer. I was not surprised as I have a friend who read mammograms for a living for two years. Given what she said about how little time the other radiologists spent on each person's mammogram because that would reduce how much money they would make that month.

You’re the tops, Dr Westman. Thanks for all you do!

Great information!! Thank you! I enjoy your videos.

Having a mammogram saved my life. Caught my cancer very early. Triple negative breast cancer. I also believe sugar feeds cancer. Eat a low carb diet. I fell off the low carb wagon. Trying my hardest to stay on to keep cancer away. I'm not diebetic. Was borderline at one point in my life. A1C 5.5. Cholesterol high. Trying to decide for myself if I'll take statins for it because do have some plaque. Always something!

Ketovore means that a person consumes less than 10 grams of carbohydrate per day. There is no way you can eat an entire slice of bread on the ketovore diet. One of those slices of bread has 18 grams of carbohydrate! It is very likely that you are not even on a low carb diet (20 grams of total carbohydrate). Get rid of the vegetables except for red pepper, cabbage, and cauliflower and eat a total of less than one-half to one cup total vegetables per day and increase your meat, seafood, and egg consumption unless you exercise vigorously. You are not eating enough meat or seafood per day. That is why you are hungry.

Neither of them had ordered it. I've been on Keto since 2020. And it came back 5.8! I was shoched and disappointed. Asked for fasting insulin, but they said "No, your health insurance company would think I was crazy if I ordered that!" I see Endocrinologist for hypothyroid.

It shouldn't have a label "ketogenic" or "ketosis". No disrespect doctor but if you haven't come to the conclusion that it's actually the natural metabolism since birth then..... Sure there's natural glycogen and glycogenesis but most people cannot use more than what the body produces for certain critical functions (debatable) as a main fuel source long term and not expect negative metabolic compromise.
