  1. You spread those toxic materials to the local library? Shame on you sir! 😆
  2. I'd only get rid of the Chia and Flax seed. The rest, in small amounts, do not worry about it. The important thing is not to eat SAD and processed foods. To stay on carnivore for life. And if a little cinnamon is going to make you do that, than so be it.
  3. Because moving, and working out IS A REWARD my friend. Haven't been on here much, incredible work schedule and life circumstances, so it's good to see evryone doing well when I check nack on occasion.
  4. It may very well be the case. I wouldn't be transfixed on being in Ketosis rather than, being fat adapted. I think that is where Saladino went wrong. Especially when you're physically active. Again, I am not a numbers guy. I do sometimes grab a piece of dark chocolate. Not only concern for oxolate dumping, but just to give that little nudge, a little reward as well. I make an effort to NOT be in Ketosis all the time. Less worry, less perfect, but more succesful in the long run, because I am still happily carnivore, today exactly, at a year and a half. Do not stress numbers, unless you have a condition that requires it.
  5. Yes, and sunlight is so good for AS. I've even found relief under a tanning bed, and red light therapy. But I am quite sitting on the fence about the good and bad of red light therapy. Warm up and strecthing is where it is at. And if it's a possibility, cold shower is absolutely magic. Cold water therapy is major in anti inflammatory measures. Good for blood circulation, good for hormones, just not good if you seek to gain muscle mass, as in bulking like a body builder. All aforementioned things however, beat the prolonged use of Tylenol and the like. Who needs kidney issues on top of everything else?
  6. Very inspiring. I didn't have a bench for years, so I did weights on the floor. Books were what kept my bar up. The thing about floor press is, you do not over extend your tendons, teaches one the correct form. But I feel you, I started out with a kettlebell and some pink dumbbells from Walmart, some 15 years ago. I have never ever thought: I regret working out, I regret buying new plates. Never. It goes so well with carnivore. And muscle and joint health is often overlooked when it comes to considering overall health, we tag it up as normal, "oh I got arthtis, it's normal for my age" and those kind of rationalizations. Muscle health is so important, equally as important as being on your ideal weight. Being just skinny is not enough.
  7. Amazing isn't it? All of the sudden you find yourself in a better shape than people half your age, and perhaps in a better shape than you were at that age. A second chance indeed. What cookie tastes that good? This is why I am so passionate about lifting weights, big or small, it doesn't matter, just do it. Safe and slow. Today you are diagnosed with awesomness.
  8. I mean with AS, MS I know nothing about. And since you have a combination. Just for me, the lifting and carnivore has made it almost dissapear.
  9. Mind you, strength training and lifting has also helped with AS. It can be crippling yes. Carnivore the all time best option for AS, in my opinion. Do not know about MS.
  10. Peter Attia normally talks out of his ass, but I am glad he is right at least sometimes. Good on him. He's been dismissive of the carnivore diet on several occasions, in a very arrgoant and annoying way. He is in the Paul Saladino category for me. A waste of time.
  11. I got this thing too. Improved by 90% of symptoms gone. I do not fast, just eat when hungry. It's been a 33 year battle for me that now finally has been conquered, for the most.
  12. You as well sir. Had an amazing Easter weekend. I turned 50, I ate cheesecake. Ice cream. I felt a rush of sugar, crashed hard. I great reminder, now back to my normal, carnivore. I could not stop thinking, I feel better turning 50 then turning 40. The power of the diet.
  13. As always, an expert explanation, was going to say this, but I'd sound a lot dumber. Remember folks, compare carnivore against SAD and Vegan, and questions regarding grass-fed and organic may be trivial. It doesn't have to be perfect. This is also why beef is always the best option.
  14. Another good reason not to use it. It causes an insulin release that can lead to liver failure in dogs. For us, it is less toxic. Less toxic. "Deemed safe". Does not sound like something I would want to ingest. A micro poison.
  15. Concerns about parasites? Well, you're in the right state, you've got plenty of them!
  16. It wasn't close. I have counted calories for 10 years. I was 148lbs. and needed about 2100 calories based on activities. Looking back it seems I wasted time. But that is just my experience. I had been using that app for almost 10 years. The thing is, your not counting calories, but carbs. It's really the amount of carbs that make us change weight. Thing is out the window when eating keto/carnivore. And within 2 months I went down to 132lbs. at 11% body fat/shredded. By excluding carbs it's almost if my body knew what weight I should be. I have maintained 132lbs. for over 6 months now, no matter what I do. Like I have stated, I tried to GAIN weight by eating 3000 calories, but to no avail. I may have gained a pound, maybe. My body is happy at where its at, whether I like it or not. I do also feel good, not weak, not tired, etc. So fine by me.
  17. Yes, phone is going to be your friend. But don't count calories, just track macros, that will eventually decide your metabolism. Also, muscle mass, build muscle, hypertrophy heavy lifting. The more muscle you have, the less you need to concern yourself with metabolic rate, or calories for that matter. I've eaten 700 calories above my daily intake for 3 weeks and did not gain one pound. That is how reliable counting calories is. At least when it comes to carnivore.
  18. Yes. It will be called "Opinions Nobody Ever Asked For But Given Out of Sheer Compulsion". Audio book soon to follow.
  19. This is the way.
  20. That's inflammation right there. Well said. I always say, don't set goals, make habits. After all it is habits that got us here.
  21. 5 minute warm-up/dynamic stretches Barbell Shrug Barbell Squat Dumbbell Side Raises Cable Lateral Pull Downs Cooldown/static stretches
