Ha ha, I didn't get involved. Just the ex-vegan boys by the way!

Agreed

Partly driven by that but there's 4 minutes that I had to take out. Too blunt and truthful for the advertising, sorry I mean 'community' 👍

Glad you enjoyed it!

Agreed

Brilliant. Thank you. This story happens time and time again

Thank you

Thank you

Glad it was helpful!

Appreciate it!

Thank you

Keep me posted

Thank you

Just I can understand your concern. Here is some reading you may find helpful. Sunlight Sun exposure is healthy pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15687362/ www.medicalnewstoday.com/mnt/releases/308202#1 Read the chemicals on the back of your sunscreen bottle. What are they?...You assume they are SAFE because they are sold to you. Some places have banned these chemicals, but then another chemical is approved to take their place, for better or worse until we continue to be the experiment for them and bad reactions start happening...then they get pulled and replaced. Rinse and repeat. These chemicals penetrate our skin, accumulate in the body, and mimic our hormones. There have been studies showing these chemicals in sunscreen cause reproductive HARM. YOU READY FOR THIS ONE?! Some of these ingredients react to LIGHT causing free radicals and harmful byproducts that could increase your risk for Big C. Free radicals cause cellular damage, so every time you lather on your sunscreen thinking you are protecting yourself, you are damaging your cells. Sunscreen ingredients have harmed the environment such as the coral reef. If they are poisoning the environment like that, imagine what they are doing to you! There are other ways to protect yourself from sunburn. Clean up your diet. Eliminate seed oils which are inflammatory and can lead to sun burn. Eat a diet high in antioxidants if you're going to be in the sun. Wear clothing to shield yourself if you feel it's necessary. Build up your skin's tolerance to sun overtime. I stopped consuming seed oils and cleaned up my diet heavily 2 years ago when I started eating meat again and focusing on nutrient dense food. Last summer, I didn't sunburn once. When my skin would start to get more red, that was my sign I needed to leave the sun and nourish my skin with TALLOW. Your body tells you what it needs The Clot Thickens: The enduring mystery of heart disease I thought of you when I read this quote from "The Clot Thickens: The enduring mystery of heart disease" by Malcolm Kendrick - "Yes, you are the sunshine of my life. Why do you think it feels so good when you go and lie in the sun? Because IT IS GOOD FOR YOU. With all these benefits it ought to give you several more years of healthy life, and it appears that it does. A study was done in Sweden, mentioned earlier, looking at women with “active sunlight exposure habits.” Which is a poncy medical way of saying… sunbathes a lot. They compared these evil sunbathing harlots to another group of women who avoided the sun. What did the researchers find? “Non-smokers who avoided sun exposure had a life expectancy similar to smokers in the highest sun exposure group, indicating that avoidance of sun exposure is a risk factor for death of a similar magnitude as smoking. Compared to the highest sun exposure group, life expectancy of avoiders of sun exposure was reduced by 0.6-2.1 years.” 239 This was a 20-year study, so a lifetime of sun exposure could give you 3 to 8 years of added life expectancy. Possibly 10, if you compare avoiding sunlight to smoking, as these researchers did. To those who cry, but what of melanoma? I respond, ‘what of melanoma?’ Whilst no-one wants to get it, it remains a very uncommon cancer, killing about a tenth the number who die of either say, breast, or prostate cancer. Added to this, the evidence that sun exposure actually causes malignant melanoma is weak, at best. Here from an article written in the British Journal of Dermatology (no less), which was entitled “Melanoma epidemic: a midsummer night’s dream.” It stated a number of pretty startling things: • The rise in reported malignant melanoma is due to ‘diagnostic drift’ whereby benign lesions are reported as stage one melanoma • The distribution of melanomas does not correspond to areas of sun exposure. You would expect them on the face, the arms, the legs, more than anywhere else. Not true • There needs to be a re-evaluation of the role of UV radiation and recommendations for protection from it • There needs to be a new direction for research into the cause. Yes, this was actually written by dermatologists. Members of the very speciality who constantly harangue us to never, ever, go out into the sun. At least not without slathering every inch of your body with clothing, or high-powered suntan lotion." Start reading this book for free: amzn.eu/fbs1Ptu

My best friend of 35 years just died of malignant melanoma 2 weeks ago. It started as a little reddish bump on her middle toe and she had shown it to several drs over a couple years time, who didn't think it was anything. Ended up being all through the toe which had to be amputated. 6 months later they found the same cancer in her brain, lungs, thyroid, next to her spine. She did the radiation and immunotherapy, but she was told at the start that it was terminal. She fought it for a year and a half and died 3 days before her 75th birthday. She didn't spend much time in the sun, and wore a cover up and hat when she did sit by the pool. She wasn't outdoorsy at all. Didn't bike, hike, fish or camp. I don't think she over exposed just her toes! I don't burn in the sun anymore and don't wear sunscreen. I do wear a hat when working in the garden and the only time I wear sunglasses is when driving. I'm in the U.S. and sunscreen is preached. I keep telling my kids to find a better alternative for my grandkids. Thanks for what y'all are doing!

Good point

Although it's bad to support Big food, this is a much cheaper option to getting the same thing from the local cafe

Yes it's not great for someone looking for guidance. All I can talk about is personal experience and that shows reversal of disease with this way of eating. Secondly the science shows protein to be protective. Kidneys and protein Renal function in patients following a low carbohydrate diet for type 2 diabetes: a review of the literature and analysis of routine clinical data from a primary care service over 7 years Shown in his diabetic patients with kidney function damage, the low carbohydrate diet improved kidney function. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34468402/ Case reports on well-trained bodybuilders: Two years on a high protein diet The findings indicate that 2 yrs of a high protein diet in healthy resistance trained men had no effect on measures of body composition as well as liver or kidney function. Thus, there is no evidence to suggest that consuming a high protein diet over a 2-yr period causes any harmful side effects www.researchgate.net/publication/323257734_Case_reports_on_well-trained_bodybuilders_Two_years_on_a_high_protein_diet Myth busted: Researchers show that a high-protein diet does not affect kidney function “There is simply no evidence linking a high-protein diet to kidney disease in healthy individuals or those who are at risk of kidney disease due to conditions such as obesity, hypertension or even type 2 diabetes,” says Devries-Aboud. According to Phillips, “Protein causing kidney damage just lacks any support. I think we can put this concept to rest.” brighterworld.mcmaster.ca/articles/myth-busted-researchers-show-that-a-high-protein-diet-does-not-affect-kidney-function/ The notion that high protein intake damages the kidneys was advanced by Dr. Barry Brenner, a top nephrologist in the '80s, based on data from rat studies. It was thoroughly debunked by the massive Modification of Diet in Renal Disease study (1994). There's a vegan cult in medicine and nephrology that continue to promote low protein diets to "slow progression" of kidney disease. This is harmful, particularly since low carb diets can reverse type 2 diabetes, and prevent progressive kidney failure. journals.lww.com/co-endocrinology/abstract/9000/renal_function_in_patients_following_a_low.99181.aspx IMPORTANT! Despite high protein fears low-carb diets may well IMPROVE kidney function as our new study suggests👍 t.co/eG9pCju9zG ⁦@Wongplan1⁩ ⁦@jen_unwin⁩ ⁦@Dr__Guess⁩ ⁦@drjasonfung⁩ ⁦@DrPaulMason⁩ t.co/pI6BJ8QvGp

You're right

Do you think it was the stress of the inappropriate restrictions?

Thank you! Cheers!

I don't think Lee feels bloated on carnivore

I am in the UK

Thank you

Why can't chicken, fish and seafood sustain you? Many people do just that on carnivore

The a1c is a flawed metric. Using fasted glucose, fasted insulin and c-peptide labs is a better measure. A CGM is EVEN better and will give you a true reflection of what is happening. When is your glucose 114? Why is that driving you crazy? We all need some level of blood glucose.

@@CoachStephen that is what I asked my doctor! About a CGM. No response. Thanks for your response! 😊

Eating until full is best but if you are worried you may consume more than you require then counting intake will be better option for you. I do offer coaching with a printed protocol to follow.

Thanks for the comment
