I was actually able to analyze the problem as Dr. Cywes read the numbers. His video lectures are better than medical school classes. I can’t believe how much I’ve learned from him and others on the Internet. All this information is free, yet my cardiologist is clueless about bloodwork and the cause of metabolic diseases.

Paul Saladino is very well researched on this topic and it shows in his physical looks, strength and vitality. I am so glad to see another doctor humble himself and give credit where credit is due. We need more of this!

Carnivore for 31 months and am at an ideal weight 189 at 6' 1' age 71. Recently started eating an avocado a day and some green beans and asparagus. Also have some berries with full fat yogurt. I was down to 178 lbs and low body fat, and didn't feel good and was getting some anxiety. I started increasing my food intake and now feel much better. As long as you stay away from the junk, grains , and processed sugar snacks, and seed oils, everything will be fine.

This was an eye-opener for me. I am type 2 diabetic, and no matter how low in carbs I went, even carnivore, I would still register high blood sugar. Upping my carbs just a wee bit, triggered my insulin and my blood sugar went down. I am realizing that keto works better for me rather than carnivore.

A lot of Doctors do their best to not give Paul credit... I respect you!

WOW. I wish I had a doctor who read labs like this ... and smart enough to know what it means. Best doctor!

I'm a highly self-educated retired emergency RN. I understand and interpret the numbers as well as you can. This all makes pefect sense. Good job thinking outside of the confined western medicine box.

Absolutely perfect. I have been beaten up (not that I care, pain is love), on Chaffee & Berry & other carnivore doctor channels for saying this exact thing for the last several years. This message needs to be heard across the globe !!!! Context matters. Person by person, case by case. No one "f"ING size fits all must be heard. Athletes, weekend warriors, couch potatoes, all the way to the extreme obese should not have the same diet. Then age and race play a role as well as genetic factors.

This man is brilliant yet humble.

I knew Saladino was on to something because he's so active. Thank you for taking the time to explain each blood marker and what was actually happening and why!

Why can’t there be more docs like you that look at everything instead of only the absurd LDL while they ignore everything good. Gotta be your own doc if you can’t afford this good doc.

Your an incredible doctor! Excellent breakdown. I was on chemo for 3 years for very bad lupus & epilepsy. I came off it and start on carnivore diet for 1 years, I'm an woman athlete and I was getting very dizzy so I added on, organic fruit, organic honey and raw organic dairy and it cured me. Absolutely fantastic. I never thought I could live better, so so so grateful and happy!

Wow... My blood work was very similar. 59 years old and nearly no fat. A nurse (who didn't see me in the office) called me an had a statin ready at the drugstore, suggested I lose weight and get on an exercise program. I told her I was 180 pounds of twisted steel and sex appeal so have them shelve that prescription. This was a super informative podcast and I feel more confident in my efforts.

"Individual therapy"! 👍👏👏👏 High patient loads, paperwork, and being "managed" by the medical business politicos make this level of care nearly impossible for many caring doctors. But it makes a WORLD of difference! Thank you for this post!!!

This is why I love Paul and his work. It helped me a lot

This is exactly where I am at the moment... OMAD, 1 glass of milk per day, LMHR, walking 5 days a week, lifting weights 3 days a week, keto in 2021, carnivore in 2022, body fat of 11%. Based on previous bloodwork (which was very similar to what Doc presented here for his patient's first round), and my blood glucose trending these past weeks, I am definitely insulin-suppressed. My plan is to increase my meals back to 2 per day, but have 2 glasses of milk instead of just 1. So 1 glass of milk in the morning, and another in the evening. I am hoping to also see better muscle growth because my current OMAD diet means the majority of my protein consumption is going over to fuel (glucose) production, rather than muscle protein synthesis. Thank you Doc, as always. Your video could not have come at a better time.

So glad I found your channel. Every doctor should watch this and see how brilliantly you put the pieces of the puzzle together.

And there it is, the importance of carbohydrates used correctly when you have the blood work assessed by someone who understands it fully. Bizzarely, I’ve come to the same conclusion myself in part by reintroducing carbohydrates. An absolutely fantastic video, thanks Doc ❤

One of your best videos ever Doc. Answered a lot of questions for myself. I feel like absolute shit when I do just high fat, low carb. Noticed when I introduced carbs back in, I feel so much better!

I love that Dr. Cywes has no issue addressing things like this that do not necessary sit in the carb addiction model. I feel like I was at this place too and my doctor had decided that I need a statin and exogenous testosterone but I started eating more carbs (fruits and honey) and slowly everything fell back into place!

After 7 months on Keto here it is. TC 491 from 160 LDL 350 from 104 LDL + VDL 416 HDL 75 from 40 TG 49 from 225 A1C 5.3 from 5.7 Weight loss 40 lbs. From 210 to 170

I was never pure carnivore, but I oddly enough did the exact same thing. I do a sort of keto/ketovore diet and added in raw milk and a little honey every day. I feel even better. This choice was entirely by chance and an experiment. Always good to experiment and test to optimize. This video was an extremely educational video btw. Love these breakdowns.

Finally- a doc addressing through excellent diagnostics & accurate interpretation an individual as a unique individual. Thanks Dr Cywes. Possible insights as to why I never got into ketosis after 5.5 months on keto & carnivore.

I so respect you for giving Dr. Paul Saladino a nod, as he falls into a subset group and you found out you had a patient just like him! Another reason people must be proactive on carnivore and adjust and tweek to feel optimal! TY Dr. Cywes for your the no bullshit give it to us straight info!

You realize you're making doctors lose their minds, don't you. This is fascinating. When my doctor doesn't see numbers that he expects and predicts, he omits the results.

Need more blood work analysis videos

Dr. Cywes is truly practicing "let food be thy medicine". Such a wealth of information here. Thank you!

This, by far, is the most important video and message for long-term keto and carnivore people who are lean and have no fat to give. The. Most. Important.

This is the only time I wished I lived in friggin' Florida, to have this man as my MD!

I love your work. I started with William Davis "Wheat Belly", then Steven Gundry' books, then on to Bikman (and about 20 or so other really good authors in this space) and I have learned something from all of them -especially Ben Bikman -who I've met and chatted with a couple of times -great guy. Dr. Cywes you are kind of the logical progression of so much of what I have learned from these other folks. At 72, I am doing quite well (and have lots of quite good numbers), because of having given up grains, seed oils, and sugars in 2017. Your videos are amazingly informative and helpful.

Perfect timing on this video for me. Been strict carnivore for 3 months, dropped from 206 to 179 lbs. Had blood work done and was surprised how high my LDL was (Total 410; HDL 52; LDL 332; Trg 131). Going to try what you suggested and check again in 3-months. Thank you!

Go DR Paul Saladino.....what a legend. It makes sense!

Insulin suppression absolutely explains my raised glucose on pure Carnivore and the fact that glucose goes down when I have my first meal at lunch. It also explains my low ketones both on a Carnivore diet and on prolonged fasts. Have not measured Glucagon but I bet it's high. Now I know exactly what to do thanx Rob

Wow! Finally some answers. I may start to carb cycle with some fruit and vegetables. I might start to sleep better and not have a raging thirst chugging down electrolytes. We'll see, but this is science in action and proves everyone is individual and that's what conventional medicine needs to catch up on. Thanks Doc!😁

This is awesome! This doctor even checks for H pylori- which is so import. No physician will ever check you for H pylori and that’s a HUGE disruptor to your health, which made me (a super fit and healthy person) end up in ER with gastro bleeding with a life threatening situation. After my ER (and surgery) visit the GI doc said that I’ve had it for years. No wonder I have always struggled with stomach issues, a very hard time staying lean (despite working out 7 days a week and eating clean). We need doctors like Dr. Cywes, but he is 1 in a million.

Medicine, metabolic and nutrition at it's highest! Thank you Dr Cywes! (What can I say more than "Dr. Cywes was the student of "Prof" Tim Noakes" Two Genius minds). Absolutely brilliant Doc!

Dr. Cywes, it is a very interesting study and discussion! I made me think about how the experiment you conducted could be modified to test for all possible hypotheses and relationships. In my opinion, such study could benefit from running a long-term transient analysis of the blood work markers prior to initiating the intervention. It is clear that the body of the client works "abnormally" compared to the population average, which in my view is a good motivation for research (before we get to speak about the intervention), but to determine whether it is problematic it would be necessary to determine a client's personal baseline and then monitor how the parameters of concern evolve with time. Research Point 1: Does A1c increase over time? Does blood sugar increase over time? Do triglyceride markers, liver enzymes and inflammation markers increase/decrease with time? If those remain steady, then there is no point of concern, it is a person's norm. If those change concurrently and in alignment with the proposed/suspected pathology, then the intervention would be justified because NAFLD, plaque, thyroid-related disorders, etc. develop asymptomatically until they are not, so there would be merit to trying some approaches to regulate those markers IF they change unfavorably and have a potential to cause avalanche of responses in responsive organs. Research Point 2: And of course it would be quite interesting to see the diet analysis along with the blood tests. How long had the client been on this diet by the moment of getting blood drawn? Was the client consuming fully denatured or fully/partially raw meat (translating to the bioavailability and balance of amino acids)? What was the fraction of organ meats and fats and non-essential/essential amino acids balance? How was the body responding to the meals? Was there a potential for increased protein and fat in his diet or would it be rather impractical (I think everyone would agree that distending the stomach with excessive food is not adequate)? Would changes in feeding regimen influence the parameters? These data should have been included for complete picture. Also, on the other hand, Research Point 3: How would the body respond to the changes in fitness regimen? I would be curious to see the changes that would follow reduction in fitness activity for a month or two, and then what would happen if he increased the fitness load. I think that would be an influential factor and it would change the acquired adaptation to synthesize large amounts of glucose to address extreme energy demands. Research Point 4: I would also like to know the tiniest details of why the person decided to run the study - when things are flawless, it is rare that someone would run to a doctor, pay them money, and significantly change their lifestyle. Muscle mass and % body fat are not the absolute and only markers of health. Of course, there can be an element of pure curiosity when you are pursuing an unusual lifestyle, but still. The mere existence of this study makes me suspect that there was a need for optimization coming from the client. A concern here is: is the body being operated in a good energy balance or is this lifestyle is borderline destructive and runs on extreme compensation? Given how good of a specimen his client was, there could be potential for a very good paper studying a whole multitude of vital parameters! This video in general made me very excited because I enjoy deep research analytics. Thank you!😊

Perfect! Hands down the most detailed analysis... I added back some good carbs to my diet with such solid evidence. Thanks doc!

This answers my blood work. came out super high cholesterol in the 500’s and my insulin was 2. Immediately thought of dr Bikman about the risk of getting insulin stuck at the bottom. Dr Cywes you had another episode on this subject , only this time you show the proof thru a perfect living example. So lucky to come across this individual to test and in this case proof your suspicion. Great investigative inquisitive approach . Master Sherlock Holmes of metabolic health 🙌

This example explains the stages one goes through to regain metabolic health. The miraculous recovery from obesity, cancer and a rogue adrenal I experienced is explanatory. I too was insulin suppressed. Cortisol was my culprit. I removed the weight by fasting and low carb keto so I could find the cancer and stayed fasting and keto for treatment and build back from the bladder surgery for the adrenalectomy. Slowly bringing up my carbs in my six hour eating window seems very natural. These days a whole banana is a treat I can definitely live with. lol

Thank you for this explanation. My thin husband and I (still needing to lose 15 lbs) are both carnivore. Me strictly high fat carnivore whlie he has some carbs occasionally. It's reassuring to know why this is working for us.

I had these SAME issues (minus) the high LDL/triglycerides. Low test, 5.4A1C, elevated liver enzymes, fasting insulin 2.6, BUN 24. Around 13% BF in my later 20s. Lift weights, sprint hard, love activity. This guy and I are about twins and I’m so glad I found this. I also started eating a few meals a day. I also have since started eating fruit again after only eating meat and eggs for about a year. I feel better and I’m gaining strength in the gym again, and in also am having better sleeps/workout. Reference (I’m not BSing) and will email anyone the blood work.. my total test went from routinely being 400ish to 1010 in 4 months of carbs. And my liver enzymes are not high. I also notice my fasting blood glucose is about 8 points lower on average. BUN is also a few point lower. Fasting insulin didn’t change. Cheers!

Dr Cywes, this presentation has put my opinion of what you do in the medical institution into the stratosphere. Your closing comments is why I can’t go back to carbohydrates, I would be be out of control and undisciplined if I go back to eating carbs/junk…. Thanks again for spending your most valuable asset, your time. 👍

Excellent analysis and execution. Outcome from which returned great result for the individual. Great insight, thanks doc.

Great break down. Thanks for sharing Doc! You are leading the way for a healthy society

His liver was making the glucose he needed. It’ll do that if you don’t eat any. And yes, Paul is correct about insulin signalling. It’s there for a reason. Carb addiction is def a thing, though. Love your work, Dr Cywes.

The brilliance that is Dr C!!

The other strategy would’ve been to cut the protein in half and ramp up the fat intake in lieu of adding any carbs. That would’ve given him plenty of fat for fuel, and would have decreased the risk of converting protein to sugar.

This is so rewarding to hear. I had realized that only some form of carnivore would make it possible for me to give up all grain and sugar products, but I also realized that I was not giving up my raw dairy (mostly milk and kefir and a little cheese), and that too much meat would give me constipation (not just infrequent stools, but hard ones painful and difficult to pass. So I embraced Dr. Saladino’s general principle before learning the degree to which he carries it. I’m not an addictive person, generally. I can have 5-6 prunes or half a large pear or a whole small banana or 1/3 cup of berries and be satisfied. I never knew what a blessing that was until I’ve read SO many people say they have to swear off all fruit because one leads to a binge and then cookies. It’s not strength of character, I’m just a little person and I don’t like to pressure my stomach. But eating a strip steak or half a big ribeye or a Wendy’s baconator with just the 2 4-oz patties and a few scraps of bacon, plus mustard, leaves me with zero interest in the Starbucks banana nut bread slabs, or all the muffins, pancakes, etc. when you’re full of meat there is no room for cookies! I had not eaten the SAD diet for many years, and never was fond of veg, so no keto flu. I just found a more than adequate replacement for bakery treats. Of course I eat eggs, some butter, but to me honey is not a food, but a medicine. I can’t have it on toast since I left toast behind; it’s something I put in tea when I have a sore throat. 4-1/2 weeks into modified carnivore, and it’s smooth sailing. I’ll have bloodwork done in Jan-Feb and I’m be eager to see some changes. Blood pressure already improved.

Would be fantastic topic for a few videos explaining blood work, ideal vs what it means when at either side of ideal and strategies. Great explanation!

Brilliant presentation as always. I was a type 2diabetic and now just insulin resistant. My usual morning blood glucose is usually 85. I eat a ketogenic diet and am happy with omad but once a week I eat twice a day and it works for me. I will have to go through this video later to convert all the numbers as we use a different measurement system here in the UK. I rather wish the world standardised the blood work across all nations. If I needed medical help when visiting the US I wouldn't have a clue what the numbers mean and likewise if a US citizen required help in the UK they wouldn't understand the figures. As a retired health professional I have seen this conflict first hand and the confusion it causes. I don't care which system is used but I do wish it was just one across all nations. When you are trying to take control of your own health it is so helpful to know your numbers in any country.

There were 2 variables introduced. Stop OMAD and introduce carbs. It would have been good to see if both were needed or only one variable was needed as intervention. I have no issue with fruit or honey. Just not the 300g amount that Saladino eats and what his calculation recommends

This is a professional who knows what he is talking about. Great content. One concern: 1. The sponsorship make it difficult to share the content with sceptics, because they will just see that, and call doc a shill. Not fair, but just sayin'.

Great information. Thank you for educating us.

Let's not forget that the title "When Paul Saladino is right!" assumes that sometimes he's wrong. One of those times is his taking conclusions from a study where people lost significant amounts of weight, and was high carb. This was an observational study, and started in 1934, involving 100 obese people. They were told to follow a white rice only diet and then sent home. So no checks possible to find out how closely they followed the diet. The participation time was very varied, between a couple of months, and one person for 11 years. During the study, 9 participants out of the 100 died. Paul says this was simply because of their metabolic health, but even so, that is pretty much an unheard of mortality rate. Maybe it was because of their white rice diet? There's strong evidence for that: Asians have not been eating white rice in quantity for centuries because it's labour-intensive to produce. After the industrial revolution, manufacturing white rice on a large scale became possible. But then, a new, previously unknown disease epidemic broke out. They called it Kwashiorkor. It was discovered that it was caused by malnutrition, in turn caused by eating a staple of - white rice. What little nutrition in rice gets removed by the white rice manufacturing process. Interestingly, autopsies of those who died of the disease were found, among other things, to have been suffering for fatty liver. Back to the white rice diet study, and the 9% mortality. Did their white rice diet have any influence on that mortality figure? You be the judge. I suspect that the person who did the white rice diet for 11 years, and was still alive after all that time, was probably not following the diet very strictly... Dr Eric Westman likes to remind us that observational studies are only able to provide hypotheses for further study, not conclusions, or establish causation. This is where Paul is wrong: he draws conclusions, and applies them, which cannot be substantiated by an observational study.

I cant stop watching this video. I got to a really low body fat % being Keto/Carnivore and started eating more frequently and more carbs because my sex drive and energy was low. Now I see this video I can really relate. THANKS!!!

Rather than consuming carbohydrates, how about consuming a large amount of protein, in order to trigger a bigger insulin response - and also gluconeogenesis? Bart Kay says that a large bolus of protein would also promote metabolic flexibility...

An interesting case study.I am 71 and have done lots of experimenting over the decades.I have some zero carb days each week but to feel my best having up to 100 gms of carbs on the other days improves both mood and performance.I am lean at 150 and also find that going too much above 150 gms of protein daily seems to decrease mood and have no extra positive effect on physical performance.Fat intake seems to self regulate best for me with this dietary pattern (I have forced the fat higher as an experiment and felt terrible).

This science is outstanding. Never have I heard from doctors this many mentioned lab values spoken here, let alone having them explained. This is a treasure chest of science and we have answers to questions not even asked yet by many. Supporting this helps everyone.

Thank you for all you do Dr. Cywes. This looks similar to what my numbers indicate but I still have several pounds of body fat, about 10 lbs., around the waist to lose. Waist to height is still high. I'm really fearful of adding fruit back into my diet. It appeared that I was getting it all under control. I even went to widening my eating window to spread out my protein intake. But my TC went from high 400's to over 529 and my total LDL went from 377 to 420, trigs went from 138 to 152. Morning fasting bg is usually 75-89. LP-IR

Very good info, I also think that the combination of carnivore and carbs is the best way.

I want to be pattern 1 on the Kraft test. I must start weight lifting to stop losing muscle. Thanks to your patient for sharing his numbers with us. When you have such clean diet and movement, you can see clearly the exact result with a change in dietary approach. I learned so much.

Thank you doctor for saving lives outside the office. Much love and appreciation ❤

Thank Dr Cywes for the excellent video and many other videos and for open minded and non-dogmatic approach.

I really don't lke Paul Saladino but appreciate the no BS / hype attitude from Dr. Cywes

Wow amazing that I actually can follow the breakdown. You are an amazing communicator!! Let alone Dr Berry would back you up as he also stresses carnivore, with some veg and berries. This is all making so much sense. 15 month carnivore 55lbs down, 20 to go. This is so encouraging to us all, just read the comments! 🥩🧈🥓🍳👍✌️☕❤

What an amazing story!!!! Wow!

Excellent case study Doc. The reduction in lipids + improved free Test, free T3 and Glucagon, liver enzymes blew me away 👍

Just fantastic. What a personalised medicine detective story……….

This pretty much mirrors my last bloodwork 10 days ago and may confirm my suspicion that I was consuming too much protein.

I'm pretty satisfied with the progress of my blood work after going carnivore for just over a year now. After a few months my LDL shot through the roof and my HDL has always been super low but slowly climbing now my physical was 11 months in and the best numbers I've ever had in my life. LDL dropped to a normal range my HDL also jumped up to normal range but just a couple points out of what is considered optimal. I also did cut nicotine out of my life for the last 4 months. Coffee is the next plant I need to work on. I think I way over do the coffee. It's a bridge I cross a little too often everyday many many times a day

If you have a video on energy production, I’d be interested in seeing that. Specifically, why I have a lack of energy and how to increase production. This has been a life long problem…nothing new. Thank you I’m 75 years old.

Adr Saladino is absolutely SPOT-ON😅

This was very fun to follow along, super well explained

I love this. I thrive on data, and am showing my doctor what's, what! I eat more intuitively than following any online influencers, and recently, my body told me to add, every now and then, blueberries and Greek yogurt to my plan. I don't believe I'm carb-addicted anymore, and so far, this has not triggered any cravings. My cholesterol last time was 525 and my TSH was at a high of 87.2 and t3, t4 very low, so I'm focused on that but also, my iodine level was extremely low, so i started with a loading dose of 8 drops of 2% lugol's a day. According to Dr. Abrahams (edited), I'll do that for 3 months and then to a maintenence dose of 2 drops per day. So far, one month in, my resting HR has gone up from 45 back to 65 and my body temp is much better. I won't get labs for my thyroid until i start losing weight again. I've lost a total of 22.2 lbs since eating this way; about 1 year and 8 months. Carnivore, or I like to call it, a meat-centric elimination plan to heal, is amazing! I'm 56yo and almost died from iotrogenic illness due to our healthcare "treatments" for natural human responses of our toxic environment, and the ludicrous recommendations that have been given. I'm still sick-ish, but getting better; learning and discovering along the way, and patient in knowing that it took a lifetime to get where I'm at, so it's definitely not going to be an overnight recovery. I'm praying and working each day so that the rest of my life is vital and rich in good health.

My son and I have been doing the carnivore, or rather animal-based diet, for three months now. I included honey, and fruit, by way of watermelon and pineapple, and some fruit juices, in our diet regimen. We seem to be doing pretty good, but my son was losing too much weight, and he was eating a-lot, but his appetite was ravenous. So, we eliminated intermittent fasting for him and added more dairy. It’s probably too soon to comment on the results of that, but he has said that he isn’t feeling as hungry as he was.

I love Dr. Cywes balanced perspective. This is a great example of complex metabolic functions and their relationship to our individual metabolic needs. We keto/carnivores need to be careful not to throw out the baby with the bathwater. Thanks Dr.

I got the same problem, being on keto for 3 years and carnivore for another 3 years! In some point I was so fatigue and had very low energy. I had no appetite, I was eating one steak a day and I was getting full. I had a very low sex drive as well. All my markers were all over the place. I added some fruit, honey and milk and all my markers went Back to normal plus my energy increased 1000%. 6 months on “Saladinos” diet and Feel great so far!

I have created "hypercarnivore" for this in my group. It only takes a couple of carb grams a day. It works perfectly.

Magic solution for him. ❤ Tired of struggling with insulin resistance 😢 haven’t lost an ounce since my visit in June 😢 Enjoying all your KZfaqs 😊

Need mored doctors like these

I have a feeling this is a common phenomenon for very lean and highly active individuals on the carnivore diet to become insulin suppressed. For the rest of us there’s zero need for carbs.

This was fascinating! Thank you!

With all due respect, Dr. Saladino never said you couldn’t or shouldn’t consume good sources of carbohydrates like organic honey, and some selected fruits. In fact, when I complied with his recommendations, my testosterone level went up from 300 to about 1000 - I am pro carnivore diet, though i am not into lots of high glycemic fruits - I do berries and very occasionally i might have some quality honey. Fasting insulin is 3 micro IU per mL, A1c is 5.1, Triglycerides is 46, HDL is 72. I truly believe i am thriving under the carnivorous diet

Fantastic analysis. Humbling. So complex. Thanks to you did request and receive order for CAC!

Great information! I’m up for my usual blood work this month and, while it wasn’t bad six months ago, total cholesterol and LDL were higher than “recommended “. I’m not worried - those are my only negative factors regarding health concerns - but my doctor is unhappy with those 2 numbers as I have refused statins. I’m hoping that, with the changes I have made to my diet - slightly more carbs (40g) and a bit less fat per day will bring the LDL down a bit. As the total cholesterol hasn’t gone over 300, I really don’t care much about that one.

Exactly what I needed to know, the timing of this video is perfect. I just had my blood work done and it came similar this guy, including low testosterone. I'm Carnivore for 11 months, 50 YO, muscular male, 6'4, 220 lbs.

Thank you for another super informative video. You have my curiosity peaked with Amylin can’t wait for your video on it!

I had palpitation with carnivore diet. I took the advice of dr. Saladino and they are gone. I think it's the right think to eat meat and mix it up with raw milk, honey and a few berries.

Awesome that you did the blood test / retest on this fellow . It shows that we are all individuals and that there is nothing wrong with eating fruit & honey on a carnivore diet if your body needs it. Maybe this video will stop the constant judgements that the carnivore community has done to Dr. Saladino . The carnivore police are ruthless and what we need to do is support people on their health journey even if it means going out of the so called guide lines or rules of carnivore diet.🥰 When he expressed what was happening to him.

Gosh, this Doctor Cywes is the best !!! Truly mean this, my doctor unfortunately is very limited, just the basic, it is frightening, you got to be real sick then he will put you on medications etc, like he managed people perfect until they get sick. Never once ask me what I’m eating, my daily routine, nothing. It is truly sad, will look for another doctor .

You are perfect, Doc. One of the best videos. I hope Dr. Klitz sees this video 😊

Wow, this is exactly what happened to me. Low carb for 25 years and had perfect numbers. Went carnivore and my HDL tanked, my Triglycerides shot up to over 400 and LDL hit over 600! Introduced a few carbs every other day and my numbers are nearly normal within 3 months.

I noticed if I do not eat my blood sugar stays high. But if I go ahead and eat something then my blood sugar will come down. I figured it was stimilating an insulin response. I am carnivore 2 months and my a1c is down some not where it should be yet but other numbers are high. I decided for myself to keep a little berries mixed with yoghurt in my diet. So far so good. Been worried about too much protein.

Fascinating!

Thanks for the video. Bart Kay talks about protein triggering insulin if you eat a large enough amount. Dr. Robert Lustig has explained that starches are fructose free. He believes fructose is the cause of metabolic diseases. The starches become sucrose in the blood stream. Our mitochondria speed up when given sucrose. This was new to me.

I did the CV diet and could not do it without sliding back to include some carbs. I gave up CV and now am on it again with dairy and fruit and it works so much better.

Paul is young and active. That’s all there is to this!

Beginning to like this man! He is a skilled and competent doctor, was to fast with my critics before!

The truth is always somewhere in the middle, while dogmatic extremes are cultic.
