The only decent fibre study we have showing complete remission of constipation-related issues when they removed ALL fibre: "Stopping or reducing dietary fiber intake reduces constipation and its associated symptoms" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3435786/ It's an interesting read and a study we can cite when friends/family say what about fiber though.

Welcome to carnivore talk, Mike. Did you change your diet overnight to a carnivorous one? Professor bart kay usually says that is what causes most of the gut issues as your microbiome needs time to adjust. Your sleep issues could be related to that as well. I didn't have sleep issues but I found magnesium citrate to help with improving my sleep in the beginning. Purely n=1 though. Keep going soldier, if you can manage to stay on this path it'll be the single biggest thing you can do for your health and longevity.

I fancied some salmon recently whilst getting some Vitamin D.

I usually get mince meat from Aldi. Cheap and delicious, especially after fasting. If mince gets "too boring" ill' add some chicken mince/turkey mince to help spice it up or I'll just say screw it and get a big daddy 16oz steak which I'll add loads of butter to as it's super lean.

Layne norton being lame norton again by saying seed oils arent inflammatory... Source: https://x.com/_CarnivoreClub/status/1814633518619628029 just wow. When will he debate professor bart kay live. It wont happen as he knows he'll be obliterated in every possible way. Layne norton makes bank from promoting such dangerous misinformation and that's what I have a problem with. It's criminal of the highest order.

I'll see if YouTube sends me a notification. Sometimes they tend to not for carnivore channels it seems. I've also heard of certain carnivore channels being shadow-banned or forcibly unsubbing people from their channels. It's happened to Professor Bart Kay and Harry Serpanos. The agenda against our channels is clear as day, unfortunately.

Nice video and channel. shared to Twitter, reddit, facebook, pinterest

There needs to be more studies absolutely but from what the research is saying so far I'd say it's worth spending time grounded outside or via grounding mats etc. And the blog I wrote is only one study that I happened to stumble across and was amazed with what I was reading. I bought a grounding mat and pillow case and so far it seems to have improved my sleep, but of course, it could be a placebo. n=1, after all :). Professor Bart Kay mentions grounding, it's listed in his 5 health hack videos, and him being an authority puts more credence into the whole idea. This site has tonnes of studies about grounding: https://earthinginstitute.net/research/ so that's me going off the deep end then lol.

I remember dipping my eggs in rapeseed oil mayo back in my keto days. Knowing what I know now makes me cringe.

I thought it was hippie pseudo-science when I first heard about it if I'm honest but then again when I first heard of carnivore I thought the same thing. It seems to be a real thing with some decent science behind it, such as: "The effects of grounding (earthing) on inflammation, the immune response, wound healing, and prevention and treatment of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4378297/ I was so amazed by what I read there that I just had to make a mini post here and on my blog about it. Their hypothesis: "Our main hypothesis is that connecting the body to the Earth enables free electrons from the Earth’s surface to spread over and into the body, where they can have antioxidant effects. Specifically, we suggest that mobile electrons create an antioxidant microenvironment around the injury repair field, slowing or preventing reactive oxygen species (ROS) delivered by the oxidative burst from causing “collateral damage” to healthy tissue, and preventing or reducing the formation of the so-called “inflammatory barricade” There seems to be plenty of other scientific research done around it as well, not just that one study. It seems to be a... a GROUND-breaking field :).

I'm breaking my fast with 1000 grams of raw mince. Usually, I'll have cooked mince but I wanted to get a reaction from the "lovely intelligent people" on TikTok and youtube shorts. Safe to say, it's gone somewhat viral.

Thanks guys. Yes, Professor Bart Kay is amazing. His knowledge is unlike any other carnivore influencer. This is true. However, he recently has toned down the aggressiveness mostly due to the youtube algorithm not pushing his videos. He is pretty chill in the livestreams to be honest and like you say he plays a hilarious character. I recently subbed to his paid-membership plan because he is such a vast wealth of knowledge.

If you eat too much salt your kidneys will filter it out. That is one of their most important jobs after all. Salt will never cause inflammation, if it did we wouldn't have survived as a species. Salt to your heart's content, my friend. Not eating fibre will cause you to have less waste ergo less number 2's.

I'm eating my own body fat today due to the fact that I am fasting. Cheers for the food pics though

There is a good amount of scientific research being done on the effects of grounding yourself to the earth. Here are a few of the purported effects: Increased wound healing. An immediate drop in blood pressure. It's really quite fascinating stuff. Here's a video by Bart Kay who explains it in 5 minutes and more clearly than I ever could:

500g mince meat patties with tons of cheese melted on top. Sadly no pic as it was gone before I knew it.

I'll have some liver maybe once every few months. It's not required at all. and as others have mentioned copper toxicity and hypervitaminosis A will cause massive issues.

This makes sense and is a great move tbh. I've seen it on other forums, not diet-related ones but the chatgpt ai responses are clear as day and they usually are shilling some affiliate link.

There is enough vitamin C in meat. You only need a very tiny amount IF you aren't shoving carbohydrates down your throat. Vitamin C and Glucose compete for uptake into the cells and so by eating carbs, which, by the way, all turn into glucose will significantly increase the requirement for vitamin C. It's not an issue on carnivore.

Okay great. Congrats on having an open mind at the very least and being willing to try this way of living/eating. I'll answer to the best of my knowledge. Do not just jump into carnivore though as you need to give your microbiome time to adjust, usually it seems to be about a few weeks. If you hear why people who go carnivore get diarrhoea and/or constipation, that is a big reason why. Correct. Fibre is not needed and shouldn't be consumed at all. Zero grams are required. None. Here is a study showing how fibre irritates the colon and how it aggravates colon issues, especially constipation-related issues: Stopping or reducing dietary fiber intake reduces constipation and its associated symptoms. Correct. They are not needed. However, In my personal opinion, it might be useful to consume something like kefir or raw milk when starting carnivore to give your microbiome a helping hand when changing from the standard diet to carnivore. Not needed and you make enough through ketone production. Hence beta-hydroxybutyrate. See the above response. Not needed. Unless you want to make your urine more expensive. Not needed. You could however look into Taurine as a sulfur compound. but you don't need to supplement with methylsulfonylmethane. Not needed. You will get enough collagen from your meat. All of those you will get in meat in the appropriate amount needed. It's perfect, isn't it? it's almost as if we evolved by eating the muscle meat and fat of large animals. :D. They are correct. Glucose and Vitamin C use the same transporter into the cells and from memory, I believe it is the GLUT4 receptor. Your body will prefer to uptake the glucose as yes your body does need some glucose but you don't need to get it exogenously your body produces enough through the gluconeogenesis pathway. If you cut out exogenous carbs aka glucose then your requirement for vitamin c drops significantly since the vitamin C doesn't have to compete to get into the cell. and yes, meat does have enough vitamin C, so don't worry about scurvy. You should get it from the Sun as much as possible in the non-winter months to build up the vitamin d stores for the winter. If you don't go out much then I'd advise taking it as a supplement, especially. You do get some vitamin d from meat but it's mostly from the UVB rays from the sun hitting your skin that's where you will make the bulk of vitamin d. By the way, glass blocks UVB light so you won't get any vitamin d production if you are by the windows. You'll find vitamin K2 in meat so it's a none issue. But if you are concerned eat some dairy as dairy has vastly more vitamin k in it than meat. No need for supplementation here either. Vitamin K1 is plant-based and has to be converted into K2 in the body and the conversation is rubbish. You get vitamin E in meat as all the others. You don't need to supplement with it. That article is a nonsense propaganda piece. Don't worry about it, if you eat a carnivore diet all of those things will not be an issue. You don't need to supplement with that either. By the way, one of the best anti-oxidants is grounding but that is for another post. You don't need to supplement anything on carnivore as meat will have everything you need in the right amounts. Also, don't eat liver every day or any organ apart from heart as you will suffer from copper toxicity and it's not required for carnivore anyway just the muscle meat and fat of large ruminant animals. Yes. If you fancy chicken/pork then eat it it will not be a problem. TLDR? No need to supplement with anything if you do a 100% carnivore diet or as close to 100% as possible and as sustainable as you can make it. If that means still drinking coffee then that's fine. Don't think that having coffee/pepper/seasonings means it's over for you. I have coffee still and while yes it isn't optimal it is light-years better than the standard diet.

Hey, my name is Jamie, I've been on the carnivore diet for about 3 years now. I was keto before that for about three months after eating about 15 doughnuts in a row and suffering from the biggest cramp EVER. After that, I studied the keto diet and learned about the science. Ketosis, gluconeogenesis all that good stuff. Since starting the carnivore diet, I've gained a vast wealth of knowledge regarding the carnivore diet/keto due to watching Professor Bart Kay and so now I'm spreading the message, since, of course, the mainstream narrative is carbs are essential for health. Even our UK government says a person between the ages of 19 - 65 MUST get at least 333 grams of carbs per day to be healthy... Pure insanity.
