    i can say that in the case of my chron disease, i had great improvments. I was supposed to get part of the intestine removed for how bad the damage was and eve tho i didn't have time to get checked again i can feel the differance. you may want to share on which products you are basing your carnivore diet, which surely could help us compair experiences.

    january is almost over and i'm about 15lb up. I'm considering to go OMAD cause even tho I feel the need for some extra nutrition, i also feel i can't digest two fully carnivore meals a day and i get heart burn. in which moments of the day do you guys eat? In the case of a carnivore diet OMAD feels more natural to me, but i just cannot eat a 2.5/3lb of meat in a single meal

    i mean, we can't compare a big toe ache with gout, that's a bit of a long shot. And yeah, even tho i know sadly well what it means to not being able to walk, fortunately i didn't get to ever experiance gout. To be honest gout sounds quite like a miserable condition, i'm not looking forward to experiance it.

    you kidding mate? those things took down Bin Laden; I stand no chance.

    totally an option.

    Not a small town. Unfortunately one of the harderst things for me moving to sweden was that they have very very little choice when it comes to meat and fish as well (surprising). very little variety of animals, and also very little variety of cuts of meat. finding liver is hard, i gotta drive 1 hour for it, but things like brain, heart, etc, is something unseen here. meat is bought almost exclusively in groerystores cause butchery shops are not a thing (no idea why). A lot of animals that i am able to find in my home country are unavaible here, even common ones like horses, donkeys, rabbits, goose (i miss horsy meat and donkey sausages). For some reason they tend to prefer extra lean cuts of meat so most of the minced meat and steaks you'll find are 90/10-95/5, dry as sin. from what i've seen in the years, cow is the least avaible animal among the few avaible ones. When you get down to the deep south of the country, things are less like I described them and more similar to a common european standard, but in the arctic circle choices are narrowed down to very few options. after christmas i haven't seen cow meat in the grocerystores for a whole 3weeks cause they were out of it.

    It would be interesting to know if the vet was from a EU eastern european country, of from outside the EU. cause as we were saying with Orweller, the difference lies in the regulations which are common between non-EU european countries and the US. I'm wondering if what affected you dog could have been not the ground beef itself, but maybe all the products added to raise the animal, or the preservatives added to the meat.

    fellas, i gotta share my sorrow. i just got back from 4 different grocery stores. Not an inch of ground beef nor stake and i managed to grab the last piece of Chuck. apparently there is not enough supply and i will have to wait a couple of weeks to get some. I was just starting to get better by dropping pork. i'm considering turning to cannibalism .

    same mate, math ain't mathing for me as well. I am eating almost half of the calories i used to: from 4500 down to about 2500, and i'm gaining weight. What i love the most is reducing the amount of meals, not having to focus the entire day on what my next meal is going to be, wash the dishes of the previous one, find the ingrediantes for the next one or the time for it. I just wake up, eat a meal, and eat another one before night night. The morning meal would be absolutely not necessary in terms of hunger, i feel 1 meal would be the right amount for satiety, but it's a matter of gaining some weight back.

    i think i posted it already on a different topic. i have a lil dog, 3kg 14yo. She started having severe health issues including an abscess to her jaw bone. Every single vet told me she wasn't operable and many suggested me to put her down. I started having the same considerations of Scott about how much similar our evolutionary needs are in terms of diet, and we went carnivore together. She is now thriving, it looks like she got back to being a puppy, super energetic, playing around all the time and the jaw abscess she had just self resolved without any trace left. that was a huge blessing. My mental health is hanged on a thin thread and that thread is her i need her to live up to 100yo minimum.

    what i find wild is that this WOE doesn't just make you loose weight, it normalizes your weight to healthy standards. walking throught the same path you lost 86lb while i gained about 15lb and still improving. It kinda naturally leads you where you should be.

    In general European prices are higher for a matter of quality and cost production related to it. But swedish prices are not related to quality. Swedish meat is not any better than meat for example from Italy even tho the prices are about double; the main differance is that here workers have much more rights, and those rights come to a cost. Here i personally know people that got 3 weeks off for an 'inflamation to the big toe'. In Italy i had a piece of iron going through my arm while working, cutting through the muscle, and the company was mad cause the Doc gave me a full week at home. took me about two months to be able to use again the arm and i was working on a manual job using a single arm
  15. Nemo
    About the quality i would say it is safer on the long run mostly cause regulations are much more stricts. the approach of the Us and european countries is opposite; in europe every substance is guilty until proved innocent. -Europe: unless you bring a very long and consolidated list of evidences developed through the years of research, you ain't allowed to use it -Us: If lab evidences seem ok then it can be used. if people start to have issue and they manage to prove that is related to the specific substance we used, then we'll withdraw it from the market. About steroids they are strictly banned in every europan country, and anti-biotics are heavily regulated. In my native country for example, if a farmer is cought using steroids on animals (such as trenbolone) other than having his license taken away, and sanctions over 50k $, he faces jail time cause it is considered a crime since they are actively poisoning people for their own financial interest.

    totally agree with you, that's why in my response to Geezy i specified that by 'absolutist' i don't mean him being overly strict in his ideas, but rather his approach to the topic. In fact i happen to agree with most of what he says, i just have a different approach. i feel he is falling in the same trap of many vegan docs: ' I'm right because that is the right way of eating', rather than 'i believe that this is the right way according to my experiance and current finding, but i don't claim to have the ultimate truth'
  17. Nemo
    the minced meat has indeed an honest price, less so the stakes. about 35$/kg for the cheapest you can go is not a very good price when you eat about 1.3kg a day XD
  18. Nemo
    Absolutely agree with you, but here we have to differentiate between two things: ultra-processed meat and an artisanally cured sausage. One has a list of ingredients as long as the Bible, and the other doesn't.

    i guess we read his words trough a different lens. I'd like to quote a sentence from the german book 'Homo Carnivorus': Every ten doctors there are 11 opinions, and they are all convinced to have the right one. I don't feel aligned to him, not in the ideas, but in the approach. I feel that he makes the same mistake of all the vegan doctors that claim the know the ultiimate truth. While i see people like dr.chaffe being much more open to the fact that they might be wrong, and therefore they present an idea in which they believe without offering it as the ultimate one, i see dr. Barry having a much more absolutist approach. For example in his several interviews with the team of dr.Norwitz, it was very noticable the comparison between the approaches of the two . One was saying that their findings, even tho incredibly interesting, had to be interpreted with caution, while the other one was saying that those were concrete evidence of his ideas being right. Those are just two very different approaches and i find myself more aligned with the one that i see as more balanced. Btw i didn't referr to him as absolutist in a way that he would impose his ideas to others, but in a way that i just don't see him considering the possibility to be even partially incorrect, but the fact is that every nutritionist, and every doctor out there is sure to be right, and it takes to doubt you ideas in order to test them. That's why i enjoyed the book Homo Carnivorus, cause the author specifically said that he doesn't claim to have the ultimate truth, and that if tomorrow he found concrete evidence to support a vegan diet he would straight go vegan, but the current evidences led him to a carnivore diet. I feel to share his approach.

    I have to say that i highly disagree with dr. barry. i believe he has somehow a single minded prospective, and a bit of an absolutist way to approach the topic, seeing everything in black or white. To be honest switching a europan diet for a hotdog based diet is surely not something that i would consider a good idea. There are levels of 'unhealthy', and i believe you can't go any more unhealthy than the standard american diet (since is based on ultra processed foods). I find his point of view single minded cause he bases his 'facts' on the prospective of someone that is heavily overweight and eats an ultraprocessed diet, which is very much not the case here. In my family is very common to get far over 100yo, and i'm positive that wouldn't happen with a diet based on processed food like hotdogs. Sure hotdogs are better than eating at mcdonald, taco bell and dominos pizza, or eating potato chips in a bag with a coca-cola zero on the side, pop-tarts for breakfast, and cheese balls as a snack. But if i had to choose between the two i would go for worms and crickets On my personal experiance (lived in the us for few years as a teen in texas and cali) people don't only eat processed food when they go out to eat, they tend to eat a lot of processed food at home as well which makes it a daily occurrance for the average Joe. Here most of us buy raw ingredients and cook, so yes, you have the components of all the anti-nutrients and toxins present in plants which on the long run feeds autoimmune disease, but not the burden of ultra-processed food, which i personally believe to be worse in particular if combined with the first one.

    i drink something very similar every morning. i make bones broth, in which i add pork skin for collagen. When cold it becomes a jelly and i store it in the refrigerator. in the morning i just warm it up and enjoy some hot bones broth with ghee.
  22. Nemo
    I genuinely wonder why. As far as i know minced meat should be great since they grind pretty much everything in it, therefore you end up eating things like tendors, skin, etc, which are great for your health but otherwise people most likely wouldn't eat. If minced meat is an issue i'm completely screwed, here the only ruminants i can find are raindeer and cow, and the prices are out of hands. minced meat is the cheapest and it goes at about 110sek (10$) per kg (2.2pounds), then for about 15$ per kg you can find some cuts of meat with a lot of tendors like the Högrev (dunno how is called in english), which is pretty great for stews, but when it comes to steaks, the cheapest i found for 30$/kg for Entrecôte (Ribeye). those were the prices for cuts of cow meat; if you desire to buy raindeer you gotta be ready to pay with tears of polar bear harvested on a full mood. Update: i believe the Högrev is called Chuck in english, or at least that's what chat gpt said.

    interesting. what type of minced meat were you giving to the dog? cause i react badly to pork minced meat or mixed, but not to beef. And talking about dogs, i have an interesting experiance. I have a very small and old dog (14yo 3kg), her health was rapidly going downhill and was getting her face swallen for a bone abscess. No vet wanted to operate her since a full anesthesia is risky on an old dog. we went carnivore together and it was a blessing for her. the entire swelling got better really quickly, her eyes got better, and her energy levels are through the roof. when i cook for myself in the morning i cook for her as well (but without salt), and she is thriving. I'm trying to balance her micronutrient income giving her enough liver. At first she wouldn't eat much and i thought that she didn't like it, but after gaining a lot of weight in a week i realized that i was giving her the same amount of food in terms of grams, but the calories intake was literally 10 times higher XDD I found what amount is right for her and she is doing so well that she doesn't need to be operated any longer.

    Lately I was having so many issues (skin and digestion related) that I decided to cut out pork and chicken to see if it was really that giving me do many issues. I will try to live on minced beef for a while. So far it seems better. It would be interesting to understand if I'm allergic to pork or just very reactive to the imbalances of omega 6/3. Also I eat quite a lot of meat per day which surely doesn't help when said meat contains a lot of pro-inflammatory substances. Two meals for about 1.5kg of meat in total. Did any of you tried how they feel excluding monogastric animals for a while?

    Same in north Sweden. I'm having a hard time even finding the 80/20 the most common I can find is 95/5-88/12. You can imagine how dry it is. I add minced lard and organs to make it less miserable.
