This would vary per individual. There are a number of things that can increase uric acid levels. Yes, meat consumption (especially organ meat and red meat) can be one of them, but so can medications, obesity, and high carbohydrate and sugary foods. Many people who previously experienced a gout flare up on a standard American diet never get them again on a carnivore diet. If you are losing weight rapidly, this will also increase uric acid in your blood temporarily. Things will return to baseline some time after acheving a stable weight. Wait it out, and keep doing what you're doing. I had gout when I was doing dirty keto, but I've never had gout in the last 3 years of strict or semi-strict carnivore (sometimes ketovore and occasionally animal-based).

Their store in Creston is called White Feather Meats. It's 45 minutes away. I should check it out :)

I would think the advertising ban would have to extend beyond TV. I don't know about you, but we don't watch regular TV with commercials anymore. We watch streaming networks and pay for the tiers that means we benefit from no ads. Junk food companies will just target advertising where the kids actually are. Social media like Snapchat, web pages, and more.

I don't but I like you I am curious how they fair. I've seen Shawn Baker and Kerry Mann promote these companies, BUT those are also sponsorship deals. I would hope that they would only promote a product that they truly loved. I get my meats locally, either from Sam's Club, or from Duma's meats which is my local butcher.

I'll tag him @Geezy to grab his attention. This should send him an email and/or give him a notification through Tapatalk.

Awesome! Keep us updated! Onward Carnivore soldier! :) Is remaining OMAD your goal for January? Whey comes from cows, so you're good in my book ;)

Twitter is for the birds, lol. I can't get into Twitter. I may follow a topic or come creators but I can't muster up a following and literally none of my real life friends use it. They are all on Facebook or Instagram. I did Snapchat for a while. But it seems to have waned in popularity also. The friends that used to use it no longer do.

Junk food advert ban comes into effect with soft drinks, porridge and chocolate includedThe government estimates the ad ban will prevent around 20,000 cases of childhood obesity. Figures suggest one in 10 reception-aged children is now obese. Advertising food and drinks that are high in saturated fat, salt and sugar has been restricted. Pic: iStock A new online and TV ban on the advertising of unhealthy food comes into full effect today after voluntary restrictions were introduced in October. The ban prevents ads for "less healthy" food and drinks that are high in saturated fat, salt and sugar (HFSS) appearing on television between 5.30am and 9pm, and online at any time. The ban applies to products that fall within 13 categories considered to play the most significant role in childhood obesity. These include soft drinks, chocolates and sweets, pizzas, cakes and ice creams, but also breakfast cereals and porridges, sandwiches, sweetened bread products and yoghurts. Products that belong to these categories will need to be assessed on whether they are considered "less healthy" using a scoring tool that considers their nutrient levels and whether they are high in saturated fat, salt and sugar. Ice cream falls into one of 13 categories considered to play the most significant role in childhood obesity. Pic: iStock Only products that belong to one of the 13 categories and score outside the acceptable range are included in the advertising restrictions, which will be policed by the Advertising Standards Authority. Products that are assessed as healthier in both can still be advertised, which the government hopes will lead to changes in recipes by the food industry. Adverts for plain oats and most porridge, muesli and granola will not be affected, but some less healthy versions with added sugar, chocolate or syrup could face restrictions. Rules previously stated that products high in saturated fat, salt and sugar should not be advertised through any media when more than 25% of the audience is under 16 years old. The government estimates the ad ban will prevent around 20,000 cases of childhood obesity. Latest figures suggest one in 10 reception-aged children is now obese, while one in five children has tooth decay by the age of five. It is estimated that obesity costs the NHS more than £11bn every year. The new plans were first announced by the Conservatives in 2021 but were pushed back twice. It comes after Health Secretary Wes Streeting announced that milkshakes and lattes will be hit with a sugar tax for the first time in a bid to tackle obesity.

January is World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following... 1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt. 2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs. 3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy. In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage how you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice. IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based. We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk. Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize (valued at $100) at the end of the month. Some brief rules: Each reply to this topic counts as one entry. You may post multiple times. But... Back to back replies may be merged and counted as a single entry to restrict users from spamming the system. Participating ON SCREEN on our Monday Night Live's will count as 2 bonus entries. Joining the YouTube membership will also count as bonus entries, depending on tier. Participants must be residents within the USA.

Hello Jerry, how well did you finish out 2025 and are you still on board with carnivore for 2026? I have late stage kidney disease. Been carnivore myself since May 2023.

Well this could be in certain cases. The cow's body may be able to synthesize certain vitamins and minerals, but then other vitamins and minerals might have to be obtained through their diet. If the fields they are grazing on has soil lacking nutrients, then their feed lacks the nutrients, and then so does their muscle meat. The same works for us. For example, we can't synthesize vitamin C. We have to get it from our food.

That's a neat looking device. I set tile all day, lol. Right now I have a treadmill in the next room. I would prefer to hike the trails but it's the middle of winter currently. I want to get some weights, a bench, etc. as well.

We're still a minority, so it wouldn't surprise me that more anti-carnivore videos are produced compared to pro-carnivore videos. I get served Vegan "shorts" all the time over on Facebook. Then on TikTok it's people refusing to give police their ID. But YouTube gets it right most of the time.

This A.I. garbage is getting out of hand. I've seen other videos of Dr. London and Dr. Jason Fung but they are not really London or Fung. It's A.I. imposter videos trying to pass themselves off as the genuine article. It's disgusting.

Looks like ice cream. Funny that the label says "suitable for vegetarians" on it, lol

I watch everyone mentioned here so far, as well as Dr. Kiltz and some smaller health coach/carnivore influencers. I don't follow anyone zealously to the point where I consume ALL their content. But I am subscribed to them all so if they pop up in my recommendations feed and the title or topic looks interesting then I will give it a listen.

Yes. The trans fats in processed foods are artificial trans fatty acids created through an industrial process. If an ingredient list contains "partially hydrogenated _____-oil" in the ingredients, avoid consuming it. The trans fats in butter are naturally occurring trans fats, produced in the rumen (stomach) of ruminant animals like cows during digestion. They differ chemically from the artificial varieties.

My goal is to eliminate my habitual consumption of caffeinated diet sodas. My research has turned up all sorts of bad news revolving around caffeine that may have contributed, and continues to contribute to my kidney issues. I am also a very pork based carnivore, and I want to switch that to more beef and ruminant centric eating. My potassium is high because of the kidneys, and pork muscle meat is a high potassium food.

I splurged on nice glasses this last time around. We have insurance that probably cut the bill in half, but I still shelled out $500.

Keep doing what you are doing. You've come a long way already. I've heard Dr. Berry say that the last few pounds are the most stubborn, and I agree. They are for me. I dropped 60 pounds with ease. I would like to lose at least 15 more. I know what I have to do. My problem is motivation. I am actually happy with my current weight, simply because it's a night and day difference from my previous appearance, lol.
