    Oozing Cholesterol on the Carnivore Diet? Saturated Fat Overload?

    The news media is blaming the Carnivore Diet for a man from Tampa, Florida, who developed xanthelasma, a condition where yellowish, fatty deposits form under the skin. His alleged diet was admittedly extreme, which involved consuming 6-9 pounds of cheese on a daily basis, as well as multiple sticks of butter, and hamburgers with extra fat mixed in the minced meat. Apparently his cholesterol levels skyrocketed to over 1000 mg/dL, significantly higher than the normal level of less than 200 mg/dL2.

    Is this story true? Could other underlying conditions be at the root of his xanthelasma? Was he REALLY following a true carnivore diet? Is the carnivore diet safe and beneficial. We touch on all these questions and issues in this video.

    • Welcome to Carnivore Talk Shane.  I have not experienced that and haven’t heard of anyone else experiencing it either.  We can have different experiences from each other though.  The sensitivity to smells may be that your body is cleaning up as it heals. I know my taste is more sensitive than it used to be. My smell has never been good (too many fights lol!)  so I can’t compare that.  The sensitivity in the mouth could be from some form of oxalate dumping or detoxification. It’s hard to say. Then again it may have absolutely nothing to do with eating carnivore.  If it persists you could try rinsing your mouth twice a day for one minute each with hydrogen peroxide. 
    • We do not judge around here. None of us are 100% pure carnivore. Each of us are different with different physiology and as such we all have our own unique path to travel. We cannot judge ourselves against anyone else either or we will only be disappointed.  Find your way and we will support you in it. 
    • Hey all! My name is Shane. I'm new here and just started carnivore about 12 days ago.  A few things I noticed. Smells have been super sensitive to me. Also, the inside of my mouth has been sensitive and sore. Toothpaste and brushing really irritate it.  Has anyone else experienced this? 
    • Have you tried gelatin? I made some with the juice of half a lemon and some re-lyte.
    • My buddy had a tick bite that turned to Lyme disease. He couldn't eat any meats for a really long time. For him, it was not the taste nor the aversion to eating them but the fact he would swell, break out in hives and his joints ached to the point movement was difficult.  Before being diagnosed he had eaten a burger, jumped on his motorcycle and his first attack hit him at 40mph. Luckily, he brought it to stop and fell over against the roll-up door at the Fire Department. If he had dumped it anywhere else, it would be a different story. Over time he eased back into fish and chicken, and he is still not eating red meat. Pork is a 'gamble', sometimes he breaks out and sometimes he does not.  I agree with the posts above. If it were all of a sudden I would get checked out for a tick related illness. Hopefully you can figure some things out. Best of luck. Scott
