I lost my gallbladder back in 97 but I suffered with IBS for even longer and I eventually developed Crohn’s last year but in just 30 days on carnivore it all cleared up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don’t really have an answer for you but I will say that everyone I’ve ever heard of that was doing carnivore and has any kind of anxiety, depression or mental health issues find them resolved by becoming strict carnivore and that means no carbs, has seen great improvement or even cured. One month is not very long to start seeing great changes on this WOE. You didn’t get sick overnight so don’t expect to be cured overnight. It sounds to me like you are just going through carbohydrate addiction withdrawals. Hang in there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Bob is spot on from the technical side. Now I’ll give it to you from the simple side. Cook everything in animal fat. Try to eat only fatty meats and don’t shy away from eating the fat. Use the fat rendering from the cooked meat as a sauce over your meat. If the meat you’re eating is lean, such as chicken, pork, venison, beef with no fat like a fillet or hamburger with all the fat cooked out of it then slather it in butter. Buttery chicken is tasty. For that matter, everything tastes better with butter. Do you drink coffee or tea? If so you could do like I do and make it bullet proof. I have one cup of hot tea in the morning and I add 1 tablespoon of butter and one tablespoon of MCT oil to it and then emulsify it in my nutrabullet. Foamy goodness. Within about a month of starting carnivore I lost the desire to eat by the clock (three meals a day) and started to just eat when I got hungry. So now I generally eat just once a day but when I do it’s a lot and loaded with fat. Your rash could really be just about anything and may not even be related to carnivore but if it is you could be a form of oxalate dumping. Don’t overthink this WOE and don’t overthink it.

You can even take it beyond that and ask if this is so bad then how did we not die out as a species when the primary source of nutrition and energy for our ancestors came from eating mainly fatty meat and organs. We didn’t start dying from because of our food until just the last hundred years or so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

While making a batch of liverwurst today I snaked on tuna salad and pork rinds. The tuna is not canned tuna. I can’t stand that stuff, it’s cat food imo. I use yellowfin ahi tuna. If I haven’t been tuna fishing in awhile I’ll buy some at the fish counter. Season the filet with salt and white pepper then sear it in butter. After it cools I’ll add hard boiled eggs, thanks my girls in the hen house. Then some homemade mayonnaise. Pork rinds are fried in lard of course. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Great wisdom in what you say here. I am going to save the Bruce Lee quote. It is perfectly fitting for how everyone needs to look at how carnivore in their lives. I too am on board with you on herbs or some plants in general. I do believe that they can have their medicinal properties and uses but need to be used sparingly and for a specific purpose.

As Bob already stated those are fruit oils and are no where near as bad as seed oils. Seed oils are a slow poison whereas fruit oils are a food. Be aware that not all olive oil is alike. If it’s make olive oil but not extra virgin then it’s probably cut with canola oil which of course is a seed oil. Even extra virgin olive oil can’t always be trusted. There have been lawsuits brought against some of the bigger olive oil companies that ship to the US for misrepresentation of their oils because of cutting it with canola oil. Buyer beware. Now, that doesn’t mean they are the best for you. They are less bad than seed oils but not as good as animal fats so take that into consideration. I have some avocado oil that I use to season my cast iron that I don’t use regularly and I will use it for making mayonnaise. I put MCT oil (derived from coconut oil) in my tea every morning as part of my bulletproof tea. It helps to stimulate ketones in the body. So, they can be a part of your diet but for cooking you really should stick with animal fats.

All of the studies that show that bred meat and saturated fats are bad are agenda driven, cherry picked and funded by the agricultural lobby or big pharma. There is not and has never been any definitive study to prove that red fatty meat is detrimental to our health. If it was we would have died out as a species a long time ago. While I do believe there are dumb questions, yours is not one of them. Many people don’t understand what constitutes a seed or grain so this is a very good question. A seed is anything that a plant uses to propagate its species so yes, a nut is a seed, just like a grain is a seed or a legume is a seed or a bean is a seed. Yes, seeds are not good for you. Plants do not want you to eat their babies (seeds) because that is how they ensure the survival of their species. So there are toxins in them that are designed by nature to make us ill to try to ward us off. Some of those toxins in certain seeds will kill you quick and others just poison you over time. One of the reasons we have so many inflammatory bowel issues and autoimmune diseases is because of the toxins in seeds. Then there are the pesticides that are used on them as they are growing. Those pesticides cannot be cleaned off or neutralized so you are getting poisoned by those also. Seeds of any kind provide no nutritional value that is essential to human life. But fatty meat does.

Please, please, please don’t boil your bison or any red meat for that matter. You never want to overcook red meat. All red meat is safe to red rare or even blue. Yes you need to specific on what cuts you want. Just like with beef there are cuts that are naturally tender and some that are tough. Do an online search to Lear’s the different cuts and how best to cook them. Bison is basically the same as beef in the cuts. It’s major difference is the taste. It better in my opinion. If you get a tough cut of meat and this applies to all meats, you need to slow cook it in the oven or a crockpot or instant pot. First, salt and then sere the outside of the meat in a hot skillet to get a nice crust on both sides. Then place the meat in a whatever your cooking in and pour some bone broth or water over it so that it come half way up the meat and then slow cook it in a crockpot for five hours on high or 8 hours on low. Instant pot you can pressure cook it for 20 - 30 minutes. With the oven you can put it in a pan and put it in the oven at 350° for an hour. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mike Mike, your doctor is ignorant, plain and simple. My primary care is the same way but fortunately my cardiologist is not. He’s very open to what I’m doing and he is encouraged by my results. The red meat and fat cause cardiovascular disease is a total myth. There is not one shred of evidence that proves red meat causes anything except better health and mortality. And as previously listed, getting rid of all sugars, grains, seeds, seed oils and highly processed foods will in and of itself do wonders for your health. Me personally I won’t eat vegetables because the provide no bioavailable nutrients for my body. They are just a carbohydrate and there are no essential carbs that the body needs.
