Quite often we don’t even know we are sick until we start to heal. You can’t escape a prison if you don’t even know you’re in one. I believe that he’s saying in the article that we should not trust what he says but that we should read it and search out the truth for ourselves. Doctors don’t know the truth because they never read the studies themselves and just pass on what they were told. He’s just suggesting that we don’t do the same. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome Moomba, fellow Texan here. I about 220 miles north of you but I’m originally from San Antonio. I did very well with Atkins myself but you’re right, those Adkins treats were part of my downfall. It’s funny that you started May 9. That’s my start date as well only last year. I’ve now been carnivore for 377 days. I also developed a heart issue but not as severe as yours but I know that carnivore is the best diet for my health. It’s helped me in so many ways. Besides all of the things that I’ve healed I also lost 55 pounds. The first thirty days there was a few issues but they resolved themselves as I transitioned and became fat adapted. Nobody but me does carnivore but my wife is supportive and does do a relaxed keto. No body around me makes fun of me. I’m sure they are all skeptical and probably talk behind my back but I don’t care. I’m doing this for me, not them. They darn sure don’t want to try to debate me on the subject because I’ll bury them with facts and they can’t back up anything that they may try to bring forth. Do hesitate to ask questions, that’s what we’re here for. Good luck and good health.

Down by Houston? Jeez, no wonder, they’ve got the worst humidity down there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not sure that your grounding is the same as what we are talking about. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Interesting. I’ve always loved liverwurst and even make my own these days. I’ll be making a new batch pretty soon out of some lamb liver I just harvested. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s odd. I’ve never seen that. We’ve had a wetter spring than we normally do down here but it’s cyclical. We had a bad drought last year so the rain is welcome. Our aquifers need it. We finally started hitting the low 90’s around here and that’s just fine with me. I like my weather just a little warmer than most. I like my weather like my food, coffee and women…hot.

Made some pancakes today using my paffle recipe. Credit ol_hilly for the idea. I ate my fill along with some venison breakfast sausage. I really liked the flavor and texture of these carnivore pancakes. When I use the paffle batter for waffles you don’t notice the pork rind panko. With the pancakes I still couldn’t taste the panko but it had a sort of nutty taste and a little crunchy texture as if it were a whole grain pancake. They were very good with just some butter on top. I can’t wait to try them with a couple or three over easy eggs on top. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I find plenty of variety on carnivore. You are only limited by your imagination. I was taught by my father to at least be willing to try something before judging it as bad and I learned this lesson with a dish my grandma prepared and I refused to eat it because I didn’t like the looks of it. Dad told me to try it. Just one bite and if I didn’t like it I didn’t have to eat it. (Of course there’d be nothing else to eat that evening if I didn’t eat my supper) I took that one bite and ended up eating two helpings. It’s a lesson that has stayed with me all these years. Since then I’ve eaten plenty of things that many won’t try but I found that some are great and some are not. I guess the things that most people might find gross that I’ve eaten would be raw foods such as sushi, (not so much these days but in the past) I’d eat fresh tuna as I caught it and was cutting it up. Poke, I can hurt myself eating that. Rattle snake. I hunt and handle venomous snakes and rattlers taste good. Frogs. It’s funny the reactions I get sometimes when people know I eat frog legs and I catch my own. Organ meats. Liver is common of course but I also eat sweetbreads and calf fries (testicles). I just slaughtered a lamb and I saved his liver, testicles and kidneys. I haven’t tried kidneys before so I’m looking forward to them. I’ve had tongue but it was pretty meh to me. The only thing I can think of that I might be squeamish about would be brains. They just do not appeal to me. Bugs. Yup bugs and I ate them on purpose. I’ve done a bit of survival training and experienced grasshoppers and grubs. I know that if ever in that situation I can eat to survive but I can guarantee it’ll be a last resort. They were not fun. Then there was South Korea during an overseas work assignment. They make a lot of silk in Korea and those people don’t waste anything so when the silk worms are no longer able to make silk they get roasted and eaten. I wasn’t going to be the “Ugly American” by refusing to try them so I did. Not good, not good at all. Blech! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Only when the meat is dry. Thank goodness for butter. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I was in class in grade school when an announcement came over the intercom that President Kennedy had been shot and we were sent home that day. I remember watching his funeral on tv. It was my first encounter with death. I believe I read somewhere that the term conspiracy came about because of the theories about the assassination. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I love summer just because it’s warm. I’m from south Texas and I hate being cold all of the time in winter. The only thing cold weather is good for is hunting. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Agreed Bob but don’t you dare mention God in a public school. You know He’s not allowed. [emoji6] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You are right Bob. Those of us that work outdoors in the heat and dirty environments can’t go without bathing. I guess some people never spend much time sweating and getting dirty. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Bob pretty much covered it all so I’ll just welcome you lisalab. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow! I just finished watching the movie Dark Waters. Tremendous story of corporate corruption in the chemical industries. As I watched it I couldn’t help but think the same things that DuPont did in this circumstance are no different that what the pharmaceutical industry and big food corporations do to us as well. If you haven’t seen this 2019 movie you you really should make an effort to check it out. https://m.imdb.com/title/tt9071322/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cooked up those steaks. Over a pound each. Not as fatty as I would have liked but delicious anyways. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mosquito season hasn’t hit us yet so I’ve yet to test this out. I suppose I could go stick my hand in a fire ant mound to test it but I don’t really want to know that bad. I’ll just wait on the skeeters. I have noticed that I don’t sunburn like I used to. I’m browning more than burning. I haven’t used any sun block since being carnivore.

I watched about half of it when it first came out. I’ve heard several people talk about their hygiene changing on carnivore and not using soaps and deodorants or not bathing as often. Well if that works for them then fine but like everything else on this WOE, we are all different and it works differently in each of us. There are some benefits that many carnivore claim that I haven’t experienced such as skin tags falling of. I still have mine. Some no longer have floaters in their eyes, mine are less frequent but they are still there. It does make sense to me that by eating an all meat diet that it will change how we smell. In Vietnam our LRRP teams had to eat what the locals ate so Charlie couldn’t smell our men in the field. Your diet will give you a distinct smell. It also makes sense that when you don’t consume the sugars and carbs that turn into sugar your dental hygiene will be better. I believe I’m getting less mouth sores myself. I suppose it’s more habit than anything to brush my teeth twice a day but it definitely feels much better in the morning. I guess one could not brush their teeth and see if their loved ones say anything to them about their breath. Now as far as BO. No, if I can smell myself then I know others can smell me and I have smelled BO on myself since becoming carnivore. I also can’t stand greasy hair so I will keep showering and using soaps an shampoo. I can see finding cleaner soaps, shampoos and toothpaste in order to cut down on the unwanted chemicals in our lives. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I guess the difference between being skeptical of carnivore and grounding is that I can see and understand how carnivore works. I can only hear what people claim about grounding. Kinda difficult to see anything physical going on. I suppose the only way to find out would be to try it oneself but my feet are tender because I don’t ever go barefooted and there is no way I’m walking around for any length of time without something on my feet. I’m allergic to tetanus shots and I cannot afford to have something stick me in my feet. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well it was a good weather day so I got my walk in. Thanks for the inspiration. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did not avoid salt. In fact I increased my salt intake but you have to be your own experiment or N=1. Use it as you would normally would to salt your meat and see how you do. I personally have no issues with using salt and I think a do better with a higher amount of salt in my diet. In fact, my last blood test showed I was low in sodium so I’m trying to increase my intake. But you must do what works for you and you find that out with trying something for awhile and see how it affects you and then adjust as needed. Cautionary note though. Choose your salt carefully. Avoid table salt if at all possible because it contains sugar. Read the labels of everything you intend to eat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Paffle lamb burgers for me. That was yesterday. Today I’ll be cooking a couple off lamb steaks over a wood fire. They’ve been dry brining for four days now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
