I was married to a vegan for 15 years. During that time I gained around 5 pounds a year, so by the time I turned 70 I weighed 254 pounds and had a 42" waist. My wife made all our meals, including the lunch I took to work everyday - usually green smoothies for breakfast, a leafy salad for lunch, and veggies, rice or beans, and fruit for dinner. After my divorce, I went keto in 2020 and lost 45 pounds, then went carnivore in 2022. I now weigh 165 and have a 32" waist. The health issues like high blood pressure, auto-immune rashes, prediabetic A1C levels, and severe acid reflux that I had when I was obese have all gone away. I feel as good now as I did in my 30's.

And less food waste.

I was suffering horribly for years. Severe abdominal bloating that was constant. It would be best in the mornings. I would only look 6 months pregnant. By late evening I would look 11 months pregnant and would have pain into my back and shoulders. The bloating made it impossible to bend over for more than a few seconds because I literally couldn't breath when I was bent over. I tried ALL of the gas and bloating remedies. Nothing helped, and some things made it worse. I also had so much pain, especially in my feet. And when I would stand up after sitting a while I couldn't full stand up straight for a few seconds, and once I was standing up straight I would have to will my feet to start moving. Things like grocery shopping or even taking a shower had me completely exhausted and I would have to take a break at least halfway through anything I was doing. These were just a few of my symptoms, but they were by far the worst ones. I tried every way of eating and nothing helped. My doctors were no help either. They did a food allergy test which came back negative and then just told me to try a gluten free and anti-inflammatory diet. So I did all the research and removed everything that might be remotely inflammatory. All gluten, all seed oils, removed all processed foods, avoided sugar but what was in fruit, and removed any vegetables that I thought might be an issue. I did that for several months with no improvements at all. Then I tried keto, so only meat, fat (mostly from avocados and butter plus whatever was in the meat), and low carb vegetables. That brought about some relief. My bloating went down some, my energy increased a little, my mental health improved some (diagnosed bipolar II in 2002 and have had constant low-level depression for the last several years along with debilitating anxiety), and my pain also improved some. I was so excited, thinking this was going to be the answer. But 7 months into eating this way and all of the improvements had remained mild. I was still suffering, just not quite as bad. I started hearing so many great stories about carnivore, but I resisted at first because I believed we HAD to have vegetables. But having nothing to lose I finally gave it a try. I thought "Well 30 days won't kill me". That was 2 1/2 years ago. Carnivore cured ALL of my symptoms, mental and physical. Every single one. It cured things I didn't think could be cured. The only thing it hasn't completely cured is my hypothyroidism, at least that I know of. But it has improved it. I've been on medication for that since 2016, and until I started carnivore they would regularly have to increase my dosage. Since starting carnivore they've had to reduce it three times, which never happened before. Anyway, that's my story on carnivore. The shortened version, even.

I went Carnivore to try and help my Crohn's, and to my surprise my asthma symptoms disappeared within 24 hours!

This is anectodal but before going on Carnivore I had no problem digesting fiber. In fact, felt "ok" on a high level of vegetables, except I continued to have inflamation, heat hives, and had a hard time losing weight. Was also stiff in the joints and had a hard time moving normally. 3 weeks into Carnivore I could run like I could when I was 30 years old. I've lost 15 lbs in about a month, without any effort and feel 20+ years younger.

Ive been carnivore for 2 years. I'll never eat any other way

Carnivore for 8 months. Lost 40 lbs, lowered BP, feel AMAZING. I was NOT sick before, just fat and miserable (aching knees, elbows, left hip, ankles, etc). So afraid I would never figure out my metabolism. Now I don't think about it at all. I have NO FOOD CRAVINGS. I now eat ANYTHING I want (carnivore), when I want. I am NEVER hungry. The only way I stayed my original weight was to be horribly hungry all the time. I now walk more (even RUN, sometimes). No brain fog. Better memory, more stamina, MUCH BETTER mental outlook. All diets are limited. My diet just limits carbs to 0. If I have 4 carbs, I want MORE, MORE, MORE. Like alcohol. you can't have just a little bit if you are an alcoholic. prior to 8 months ago I was a vegetarian for 25 years.

All very interesting and possible explanations for some of the effects of the carnivore diet. One thing that isn't covered here is the healing that comes from it. In my case I had stage three kidney disease and diabetes both go into complete remission within two months of starting carnivore. Now diabetes shouldn't be surprising as eating carbohydrates are the primary cause, but kidney disease? Also about five years ago I was diagnosed with an enlarged heart with a hard left ventricle that was not pumping in concert with the right. On February twentieth this year I went to my biannual cardiology appointment and was told that my heart function was now normal, none of the points made here are an answer to this .

After several years of high veggie very low carb (max 20) I decided to try carnivore, due to serious RA arthritis scare. It’s been 16 months. Everything is healing from head to toe ! Arthritis symptoms gone in several months. Itchy flaky skin problem gone in 2 weeks! IBS gone. Toe nail fungus Gone. Cyst under skin Gone.

Great info, as usual. The only thing I wish you would say is to be aware of oxalate dumping on carnivore. I experienced this as I was eating a lot of gluten free grains, spinach, almonds and other nuts and chocolate while vegetarian for 3 years, then keto for about 10 years. I went carnivore to get rid of the carb cravings, which it did, but after about 2 weeks, I had tremendous diarrhea and inflammation. After searching for a reason, I discovered oxalate dumping. Now I'm on low oxalate diet and feeling less inflammation than I did before the carnivore diet. I suspect that those who feel worse on carnivore are experiencing this oxalate dumping. Otherwise, I really like your balance of experience and science.

I did my research before Carnivore and found out about oxalates, which I had never heard of or paid attention to before. I was lucky I never had issues with them, but I didn't want to experience any "oxalate dumping." I didn't start Carnivore cold turkey. I did stop eating vegetables, but ate a cucumber now and then, ate a square of dark chocolate every night and didn't give up putting stevia in my tea, and I didn't experience any dumping that I'm aware of. I'm not a true Carnivore as I won't ever give up drinking my tea. Maybe someday I can get used to drinking tea without stevia or I won't be able to find stevia without other ingredients. The organic stevia I bought for years added inulin, so I stopped using it and had to switch.

Spraying pastures is not true....there is no need to do that, cattles will take care of it

All these case studies have almost no control. With me i ate only beef, fish, and pasture raised eggs, for a full 4 years. When i got myself checked i had 0 deficiencies, do im skeptical as to the level of control here. Alot of people who move to this diet usually still have the restrictive mindset that has been instilled in them from childhood. Your body is very intelligent. If you eat without restrictive mindset, your body will sigal you to eat when you are deficient.

I am A+ and carnivore has completely reversed excessive bloating, belching and gas. I did not need to lose weight per se, (5’4/119 lbs) however I am now at 112 lbs., no bloating, no gas, no belching. I move so much better and my memory has improved significantly. I have always been athletic but my joints were beginning to compromise my endurance, strength and posture. Joint pain and brain fog left me exhausted. It did take more than 30 days for diarrhea to calm down. I do add Vitamin D, EFA’s, zinc, iodine, C and Magnesium glycinate/malate. I also drink a mold free half decaf coffee, black. Went off for 12 hours…..Fun for a bit but itching everywhere, bloating, gas, belching all returned. I’m back to Carnivore. I do want to have some detailed blood work done just for a baseline.

The carnivore diet is one of the best thing that has happened to me in my entire life. I feel like a whole different species of human and regard my previous lifestyle as my past life.

It’s said that their average life expectancy is around 120 years. The Hunza people have long captured the fascination of the world, with many attributing their extended lifespans to the apricot fruit that is an integral part of their diet. For generations, the Hunza people have enjoyed a simple yet nutritious lifestyle, largely centered around the consumption of apricots. These succulent fruits are rich in essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, providing the Hunza people with vital nutrients that contribute to their overall well-being. But it's not just apricots that contribute to the Hunza's remarkable health and longevity. Their lifestyle includes a balanced diet of fresh vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds. They avoid processed foods, which helps prevent chronic diseases that plague modern societies. Physical activity is ingrained in their daily routine, as the Hunza people traverse rugged terrain, cultivating their fields and engaging in outdoor activities. Their active lifestyle helps maintain robust cardiovascular health and muscle strength.

The case study with the 2 year carnivore lady, she obviouly didn't eat enough red meat, because pork, chicken and fish won't supply you with enough iron though. Her biotin and choline would be low if she did't include eggs. She would definately be low in K1 because she didn't eat leafy greens! You should have tested her K2 level. Copper might be low because she might nit have eaten any organ meats. Glycine is from oxtail, shanks, tendons, etc. Muscle meat doesn't provide a lot of glycine. Seems like she was under eating and/or over fasting... I agree that some deficiencies can occur, for I see magnesium, calcium, molybdenum, manganese, vit E everyday is short on my Cronometer. B1 I can only hit my target if I eat a lot of pork.

Just saying "she was on a carnivore diet" isn't enough, what exactly was she eating, what is "healthy meats" or an "accurate carnivore diet" - it should be about 90% ruminant meat, preferably grass fed grass finished and how much per day. Deficiencies, particularly the ones mentioned, indicate she's not eating enough red meat, as beef in particular (and grass fed) is very high in these. I eat about 60-70% of my diet as grass fed grass finished beef and I don't have any of the deficiencies mentioned in this video.

I have been on a carnivore diet for almost two years now and I felt a lot better for a while, but now (although I do not know what my tissue values were before) I have developed high tissue iron, high manganese, and a potassium and sodium deficiency. My calcium to potassium ratio is way off, so is my calcium to phosphorous, calcium to magnesium, iron to copper, and I feel really awful. All of my blood values are perfect however. I still believe in a carnivore diet but be careful that the transition doesn't knock you all the way off in the other direction as your body struggles to adjust. A lot of these values were probably off before too though. I don't believe a carnivore diet is actually lacking in nutrition, but I believe that there is something else going on when you are transitioning from a high carb diet to a no carb diet. Insulin spikes are involved in the body taking up minerals and I think rather that latent insulin resistance and reliance on carbohydrates since birth makes it hard for the body to absorb and utilize everything it needs on a pure meat based diet. It's probably better to slowly transition off carbs over 6 months to a year rather than going cold turkey. But this is all speculation.

What you need to be doing is instead of having a few or one moderate of small meal(s) a day, aim to have a HUGE boules of food in one sitting, with enough protein and fat to trigger just enough of an insulin response to hold onto your electrolytes at the level of the kidney. A lot of people actually make this mistake and as a result they become electrolyte deficient. Try that. It's a good way to consume 1 large meal a day. Eventually your gut microbiome will develop the bacteria using amino acids and beta-hydroxy-butyrate AKA; short chain fatty acids as a by-product of ketones in order to slowly break down larger amounts of meat in a single sitting having small amount of raw milk kefir can help with that as well. Also your gallbladder and liver will also increase its capacity over time to secrete bile acids needed to break down your food. I hope this helps. If you have any questions just reply

Carnivore eating is no more costly than other ways of eating. You have to be savvy about finding the best meat at the best prices. While grass fed/finished is the gold standard, it by no means is the only meat. Grain fed is far better than a plant based way of life, and it can be more affordable. Another fact is that, when you eat meat, fat, eggs, butter, bacon, and maybe sour cream (my favorite), you don't need snacks very often. If I need a snack, instead of a pudding cup, I eat sour cream or half a stick of butter. Also, ribeye roasts are less expensive than steaks. If you have an oven they are so easy to prepare and cook, and you can cook a few of them at one time and eat them over the following week. My grocery bill is same or less over a months time, than it was when I was buying chips and salsa and packaged sauces and yogurts and wow I forget what I used to buy. Vegetables, etc. none of those provide long energy. You need snack bars and sugars to function every 30 minutes. Not on carnivore. I buy steak, roast, bacon, butter, sour cream. I'll buy olives and avocado occasionally because of the good fats, but, I note that I get some bloating if I eat those . I never fart and never have bloating with my diet. I have eliminated a lot of autoimmune issues as a result. 22 months now . It takes time to adjust. At first you might go all in super fast and have great benefits but after a few months is may become more difficult due to lack of variety. It's more or less psychological.

I started carnivore only 1 week ago today. I've had asthma and severe allergies for 3 years with very little relief until this past week. I've been getting allergy shots and taking 4 different medications. 3 days into carnivore, I noticed that the wheezing was gone. Another couple days and the mucus is almost gone. I have a long ways to go to determine if I will lose the 30lbs that I need to lose and if that will solve physical pain. But breathing well is a great start

The only negative is 0NE lady who REPORTED carnivore diet has significant problems in labs. It would be interesting to see if any real research can duplicate this. My personal experience after 3.5 yrs carnivore shows labs that are perfect. Labs that are improved from before carnivore. Plus my knee no longer requires a brace, vastly more energy, and no longer need either of my medications for hypertension. Beyond that, my vanity is getting stroked because of the regular comments of how much younger I look!

That girl who was carnivore for 2 years was low in everything found in organ meat and small fish bones. But... as you insist: testing is crucial. What if she had parasites or missing good microbiome bacteria to process the nutrients she wasn't digesting? Did she have mold yoxicity? I don't see the whole picture in her story.

How do you know in this case study she was eating a proper carnivore diet, what was she eating and how much?

I've been doing the carnivore diet for about 3 months. I primarily started because of peoples anecdotal comments that it seemed to reduce aches and pains. And POW what do you know,,,,,my aches and pains reduced by about 70/80%. I also lost some weight, had to change my belt. I had a meal off and ate a 3 course meal on saturday, I enjoyed it at the time but soon regretted it. I'm not partisan about the diet, not guilt ridden for eating off plan, my regret??? The bloat and discomfort were my regret, the feeling rubbish. Fortunately it only lasted about a day so my next meal off is going to be in the long distant future.

Carnivore give me my life back i have arthritis lupus and hochimoto im been doing this style of life for 15 months and now I'm pain free no medication and feel better than ever ....im 58-year-old and i feel so good almost like when I was in my 20th🥩💪🥰

Hey Peter! What a great style of presentation and packed with great foundational information. I went keto/carnivore 9 days ago as part of a plan for metabolic rehabilitation. 6x cancer survivor (24 years free) yet had lasting long term side effects. A great milestone was including Zone 2 training (geting a metabolic assessment from Dr. San Millan) yet not enough. One thing I want you to consider about the carnivore diet is the cutting off of many addictive pathways - which is one major reason for my interest in going keto/carnivore for 100 days. Grains and the sweet flavor of everything. Certainly disbiosis and potential environmental contibutors of poor indoor air quality. I also am working with a functional nutritional practitioner with blood, urine and hair anaylsis to help guide the healing journey. Thanks again for your contribution to this subject.

I decided to do this diet in earnest after being very sick for 3 weeks- mostly upper respiratory. I just turned 60, and started peeing my pants when sneezing coughing, exercising. Ive always had immune issues, but enough "good days" to maintain my life to a degree. I got a small lab dna test looking for MTHFR which came back negative, but revealed COMT mutation. I hired a chiro/naturopath who is limited to recommending supplements- a butload of supplements. I have dopaboost, Same, adrenoplex, b-vitamins.... I am overwbelmed. Since starting carnivore, I am feeling markedly better. Low dopamine is indicated on Dutch test, and I hope this helps. I am tired, but hopeful!

For almost 20 yrs, I have been really sick. Probably since I was kid. I went to many doctors and most just thought I was crazy and gave me pills. One doctor told me I had severe inflammation but didn't know the source. I finally started cutting foods, starting with fruits and veggies. After a few days I felt relief. SMH Miserable for that time and I was just eating the standard diet.

Veggies and fruits long term is bad. Eat fatty red meat.

Over the past 6 months I have slowly got rid of Ultra processed, the processed, then seed oils, always loved meat but was drilled "eat you vegges, they will make you strong". As a child I hated vegetables cooked, now only eat a few low carb veggies, sweet red peppers and tomatoes, just because I like them. On ketovore and love it. Im now going to go on a Carnivore diet for 3 months to see how much better I feel.

I've been doing this for 3 years and I look and feel really good. I gain muscle no problem. I had to quit bread, and carbs cause i was falling a sleep all of the time and shitting blood time to time. Now I feel good. No foot fungus , sunburns ? don't get them, skin? OMG so soft and tone WTF? no ear wax, No smelling farts, Hair is growing like crazy, No more hurt burn. The list goes on. I am not the same dude now. From 210lbs to 170 @ 5 foot 9 I am not going to stop. PS I am turning 41 in June. Gray hair almost gone too. Type A+ blood too.

Great info and breakdown. Thank you Dr. Osborne.

Thanks Doc. That was interesting and informative!

You're a great teacher! You bring a potentially complex subject down to a layman's level. Thank you for a balanced presentation, nonsemsational of the carnivore diet. Do you teach in a college? If not, your knowledge should be taught to medical students. That's if the college would allow such education. Sad to say that most if not all such institutions are funded by Big Pharma.

Would you be able to go into more depth about what the blood type has to do with it? I am O- and I feel amazing on carnivore.

Well done and extremely valuable.

Have been on the carnivore diet for 15 months and have lost over 70 pounds. I'm a 63 year old woman (in one of the hardest groups to lose). I've done it without stepping in a gym and only going for the occasional walk although am active gardening. I've struggled for 55+ years trying to lose weight and yo-yoing. I will never go back to carbs. Was not really suffering from any ill health but have lowered my blood pressure by 40 points and think, looking back, I was getting towards being pre-diabetic. My husband is eating this way - he's off his blood pressure lowering drugs, also off his anti-blood clot drugs (he's had 2 small clots in his leg), has stopped snoring and is at goal weight. One thing, I also want to say is the peace of mind not facing older age with ill health - like all my friends and neighbours are suffering from - especially since the jabs.

Great explanation!! Very well balanced and informative!!

Excellent as always!

As you said carnivore doesn't fix everything but it can certainly help, in my case I reached a point where I stopped improving until I removed my 20 year old root canal teeth that looked OK in all imaging and it even wasn't that bad when extracted but was preventing me from healing my gut.

The case study of the women who had nutrient deficiencies would point to an absorption problem. Plant-based dieters that show deficiencies are almost always evaluated for malabsorption and treated by boosting stomach acid. Was that checked? Almost all the nutrients mentioned are available from animal sources. The fact she was found so deficient, especially in amino acids on a meat diet, would lead me to investigate absorption.

Thank you for this in-depth analysis.

Excellent show 💯

The government guidelines are influenced by big food money and not questioned. But the carnivore diet has to be questioned?

Very good video. Thank you for this as there is little medical evidence floating around on KZread between all the Carnivore influencers.

The carnivore diet changed my life, im never going back. Migraines gone, IBS gone, depression gone, ADHD much more manageble, energy levels amazing, libido better than ever.

I was put on an elimination diet at the age of forty, and have stayed on it, keto/carnivore ever since, I'm now seventy-two. It's the best thing I've ever done. I was barely able to function at the time and became fully healthy within days of changing my diet. I can't say it works that fast for everyone, I had to remove all spices and herbs, even cheese from my diet, but it worked brilliantly. I can only say I thank the immunologist for my good fortune I met him.

It's interesting that Dr. Osborne puts blood type into the equation. Lots of experts "poo-poo" the "eat right for your blood type" idea but I've always felt there was some validity to it.

I have been on carnivore for 5 years...no nutritional deficiencies yet! BTW, you don't have to eat any organ meats. There is a reason organ meats don't look good, taste good or smell good. The whole idea is based on the concept of "more is better." More vitamins does not necessarily mean better... According to VilJalumur Steffanson, the carnivorous Eskimos never ate organ meats, unless they were starving. They fed the organs to their dogs...

Dr Osborne really great review of pros and cons of the diet. How about risk of colon cancer and coronary disease with that diet? Whats your opinion?

I'd like to eat totally grass fed, free range, wild caught "everything" but maybe a bit expensive for the benefit. Happy and healthy enough just not eating plants.

Restrictive diets can cause deficiencies, but so can unrestricted diets. The main takeaway in regard to that is just as Dr Osbourne always says: test, don’t guess.

The Girls deficiencies at the end lacks the actual detail of exactly WHAT her Carnivore intake consisted of, especially Saturated Fat intake volumes on a daily basis such as Bacon Fat, Grass Fed Beef Fat's, Butter intakes etc that provide themajority if not all the nutrients that are stored in animal Fat's.

Awesome as usual Doc🤩 Just what I need to have my husband listen to as I have been trying to make him understand exactually what you just did. Hopefully coming from you he might give it some though as to keeping an eye on his potential risks. I have been hearing but I feel better on the carnivore diet and I said its possible because you are not eating as much junk and not drinking milk possible foods that you had allergies to. That being said you just said a lot of what I have been trying to tell him. He is 73 and I witnessed him having constipation as you mentioned and now he eats 3 bananas to help with that🙃 He use to have a bad odor when going to bathroom but now that is much better so like you mentioned good things come with the diet but just be sure to follow up with testing 👌Norma J

Question: Are you implying that mold issues can come from a carnivore diet, or are you saying that an underlying mold issue can hold back any positive results of a carnivore diet.

Really wish that person that was so vitamin deficient had the same lab work done before carnivore diet. Then it would show if she suffered from malabsorption to begin with and not due to carnivore.

I think the biggest take away is you can get nutritional deficiencies on any diet... you just have to be aware of where the downfalls may be and consume more of a certain thing or supplement.
