Welcome aboard @Nichole - you will likely be fine. Most people can eat all sorts of eggs, from store-branded white eggs to pasture-raised brown eggs. A factory farm egg from chickens that were fed soy will contain a higher amount of omega-6 fatty acid. The Omega-3 and nutritional profile of a pasture-raised egg is better, but that doesn't make the common egg "bad", per se. If you're doing a carnivore-centric diet to lose weight and you don't think you have food sensitivities, go ahead and keep eating them. If you are doing it to try and reverse it appreciate chronic conditions, then at some point in the future you may want to try switching to pasture-raised eggs, eliminating the egg whites, OR eliminating the eggs altogether. I hope that made sense

So far in the first 10 days of this month, I am down between 3 and 4 pounds. I make the most progress on the days where I intermittent fast and only have 2 meals.

Last night was carnivore taco night. Breakfast was an omelette with sausage and pepper jack cheese, which I think I am about to make again right now.

I agree that tracking through food frequency questionnaires is highly unreliable. However, the study really took a dig at ultraprocessed food vs. natural real food, whether animal or plant, and I can get on board with this.

New study shows some plant-based diets may raise heart disease riskSummary: Researchers tracking over 63,000 adults found that high-quality, minimally processed plant foods significantly reduce cardiovascular risk. But when those plant foods are ultra-processed, the advantage disappears—and can even backfire. Some ultra-processed plant diets increased risk by 40%. The study urges a shift toward whole, naturally nutrient-rich plant foods. FULL STORY Not all plant-based diets improve heart health—only those built on minimally processed, nutrient-dense foods do. Ultra-processed plant products can erase the benefits and even increase cardiovascular risk. Credit: Shutterstock Previous studies have indicated that eating large amounts of ultra-processed foods[1] is linked with a higher likelihood of developing cardiovascular diseases. Other research[2] has found that diets centered on plant-based foods can lower this risk when those foods offer balanced nutrition and are consumed in appropriate proportions. To explore how nutrition relates to cardiovascular health in more detail, scientists from INRAE, Inserm, Université Sorbonne Paris Nord, and Cnam examined more than whether foods came from plant or animal sources. Their assessment also incorporated the nutritional makeup of foods, including factors such as carbohydrate, fat, and antioxidant vitamin and mineral content, along with the level of industrial processing involved. How the Study Evaluated Diets and Food Choices The team evaluated data from 63,835 adults enrolled in the French NutriNet-Santé cohort. Participants were followed for an average of 9.1 years, with some tracked for as long as 15 years. Information on what they ate and drank (collected over at least three days) was gathered through online questionnaires. This detailed approach allowed researchers to classify diets based on the share of plant-based and animal-based foods, while also considering both nutritional quality and processing level. The findings showed that adults who consumed more plant-based foods of higher nutritional quality (lower in fat, sugar, and salt) and with minimal industrial processing had about a 40 percent lower risk of cardiovascular disease compared with those who ate fewer nutritious plant-based foods and more animal-based products[3]. However, people who ate larger amounts of plant-based foods that were nutritionally higher quality but ultra-processed, including items such as industrial whole meal breads, store-bought soups, ready-made pasta dishes, or commercially prepared salads with dressing, did not experience a reduced cardiovascular risk relative to individuals who consumed fewer of these products and more animal-based foods. Ultra-Processed Plant Foods and Increased Heart Disease Risk A notably higher risk emerged for adults whose diets were dominated by plant-based foods that were both lower in nutritional quality and ultra-processed. These items included crisps, sweetened fruit drinks or sodas made from plant extracts, chocolate-based sweets or confectionery, sugary breakfast cereals, and savory biscuits. Their cardiovascular disease risk was roughly 40 percent higher than that of people who consumed more plant-based foods of good nutritional quality with little or no industrial processing. Why Processing Level Matters for Plant-Based Eating Overall, the results show that understanding the relationship between diet and cardiovascular health requires considering the nutritional quality of foods and how heavily they are processed, in addition to the balance of plant-based and animal-based components. These findings support public health recommendations that encourage the consumption of plant-based foods that are both nutritionally high quality and minimally processed (such as fresh, frozen, or high-quality canned fruits and vegetables without added fats, salt, sugar, or additives).

That's an amazing price. Even the warehouse clubs around me are averaging more around $3.50/dozen for pasture raised brown eggs.

I don't know what the issue was either. But I got the same error, posts and notifications wouldn't load, and I was blocked from the Admin access section. I had to reinstall the software and now things are working again. I'm not sure how long we were down.

Well last night I dipped out on the challenge at dinner time. My son and his girlfriend wanted to celebrate their 1 year dating anniversary at the Olive Garden, and since they require chaperones the wife and I had to go as well. We were sat on different sides of the restaurant so they could have their date in private. But this also means I had to eat ketovore for that meal. Of course, this is something I have no issues doing from time to time, and I am back on plan this morning - as I always am. But I won't have a 30 day continuous streak for January.

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.
