@@8HeartNCMSo you have been on carnivore for only a week? You also don't have to drink as much water as he says. I'm sure anthony is quite active as a person so he may need more water but also more electrolytes. Drinking 2gallons per day I would say is very excessive for the average person and will most likely lead to an electrolyte imbalance (which is deadly btw). Your yellow stools is also a sign your body is still adapting as your body isn't producing enough bile to digest your fats so you are just shitting it out instead basically. Which explains your low energy because you need the fats or energy. You have been on it for a week and I'm guessing your diet was high in sugar etc beforehand. BUT when you say your liver is giving you issues do you mean actual pain or discomfort? The liver is an organ and a very important organ lol if you have pain there then you should be getting checked out ASAP although I do feel like you are exaggerating as alot of people seem to think when they have pain in their torso it's always organ related. If you had heart pain for example do you really think you would be sitting here saying my heart is also giving me trouble on this diet my heart is always bothering me... Your reaction would be WTF GET A FKIN AMBULANCE so why would you still be sitting there casually saying oh and my liver is hurting I probably have liver failure...

I am on day 4 of full carnivore. I ate pretty well before changing (mostly good proteins and fats, but too many carbs and sugars as well) - during COVID, I struggled a lot with the isolation and mental health aspects of the lockdown - got off my regimen - still ate mostly good stuff, but put on weight by being less disciplined and more sedentary working from home. So now for 2023, I am trying to kickstart a bit back to good health. I am trying to go strict carnivore for at least 30 days and then see how I feel - I do see myself adding more Keto type foods at some point if I make good progress. As of Day 4, I have noticed 3 main things: 1) Less abdominal bloating 2) dramatically reduced brain fog 3) Feeling like my blood sugar is super low (not in a good way - a bit light headed during physical activity). Hoping my body adjusts to the change and normalizes as the dietary part is not too tough for me (I love meat, eggs and "oily" type fish/shellfish anyway).

Are you getting enough fat? So many people make the mistake of thinking keto means protein. You should literally be eating like 50 percent fat. I use about an entire tablespoon of butter on my already very fatty cuts of meat and when I've finished cooking I will pour the oil onto the food on my plate and use the butter oil as a sauce (i also dip my meat in a tiny bit of mayo). Keto and carnivore are very different. With carnivore you really do have to prioritize eating fat more than protein. If you don't want to try what I do. When you have finished cooking try cutting about 1cm thick and the whole block wide slab of butter and just melting it on top of your meat. Lack of energy 2months on says you are doing something wrong. Also like he said in the video don't eat first thing. I've never been a morning eater and for 6hours upon waking I don't eat and I blitzkreig through everything I do. I am literally called the machine at work😂😂 Oh and if you sre using butter make sure it is actually butter and not rapeseed oil or other seed oil toxic crap

One thing that people don't grasp is that there is a dynamic interplay between intake of low-carb diet, animal foods, water, deuterium, electrolytes, and taurine. Nutritionist Mary Ruddick observed the Hadza drink very little water, even when it was hot and they were highly active. Deuterium-depleted water might play a large role, as high levels of deuterium require more water to eliminate it. Also, taurine will balance mineral levels, getting rid of excesses and maintaining what is needed.

This is extremely discouraging to hear an experienced carnivore say that he has low dips in energy throughout the first part of the day. I am in my fourth day and I can barely stay awake and I’m absolutely shocked. I did a diet years ago and by day four or five I could not believe how much my energy was on fire. I had more energy than I’ve ever had in my whole life and that’s the truth. This carnivore diet seems to be a real drag for me so far but I promised myself I would commit to 30 days so I’ll stick with it for at least 30-42 days. So far I’m losing weight, which was my goal, but my energy is in the basement. Also, on the other diet I felt so much lighter within the first week than I do eating such heavy meat every day. The other diet worked better than any diet I had ever tried before but I know that it was not nutritionally sound in terms of protein. The portions were way too small and I wasn’t getting enough nutrition.

I definitely make sure I am hydrated. My point is that when I started I would always be tired and have no energy. I thought maybe we need carbs as I’d have some fruit toast and feel like a weapon again. After some weeks that fatigue went away. Granted I do a very intense sport nearly everyday so either way I’m going to be tired. But I do feel that at the start there was some adjustment by my body.

I’ve been carnivore since the first of the year, and it’s honestly, been changing my life! Super clean eating for the last year and a half since a genetic mutation diagnosis and trying to have babies (no sugar, no wheat, no dairy, no caffeine, no alcohol), but my body still wasn’t losing weight, but since starting Jan 1st, I’ve gone from 252 down to 238 in 12 days! I haven’t experienced much detox symptoms, my body is loving this, which is awesome. My question is, though, I do count macros just to make sure I’m eating enough because that felt like an issue the first few days, and my fat ratios are between 70 and 75% fat per day, but my BM’s are every 3 days and difficult to pass. Do I need even more fat than this? It feels almost hard to consume more at this point, or is it just my body still adapting? 😅

Feeling tired on carnivore..try this. Instead of 2 or 3 large meals, eat 5 or 6 small ones in a day.

I switched to this after a month of tiredness, and now i can get through the afternoon hump AND go for a run after work finally.

This is the ONLY video I've ever seen where folks in the comments seem to be legit. So many others claiming to increase their penis size, grow 6" taller, going from bald to full head of hair, and all this other BS after a few days on keto or carnivore. I was (and still am) somewhat skeptical but I have had some AMAZING changes in my bloodwork after just 6 weeks on carnivore. Like, off the chart incredible improvements in cholesterol (320 to 115 !) and triglycerides (1,148 to 124!!) I still wonder if they mixed up my blood with someone elses as I've never been under 500 triglycerides in my entire life. Also, I have lost 15 pounds and am at my ideal weight now....fairly effortlessly I must say. HOWEVER, those have been my only improvements. Not complaining, as those are good improvements, but nothing like many others state. No change in mental clarity (never had the problem), no change in energy (I'm still always tired), no better sleep, no getting up less at night to pee, nothing "magical" happening downstairs or with libido. You'd think with those incredible number improvements in my bloodwork, SOMETHING else would change besides just numbers on a piece of paper. So far, 7 weeks in, my improvements seem to be leveling off......I think, but who knows? Gonna try to push on another week then see how things go.

One can take in 500-1000ml per half hour on an empty stomach. I find it better to bolt it down all at once. So that a few times and it’s easy to hydrate for the day.

50/50 ground beef?!? Damn! LOL! There is no such thing in the US! In the US, 80/20 ground beef is 70% of calories from fat, 30% from protein. In other words, this is a 1 to 1 fat to protein ratio. The fattest ground beef you can get in the stores in Iowa, where I live, is 73/27, which is what I eat. It has 80% of calories from fat and 20% from protein. This is a fat to protein ratio of 2 to 1. This generates so much liquid fat in the pan that I can barely eat it all without getting sick to my stomach. In fact, when I first switched from 80/20 to 73/27, I would get nauseous trying to eat all of the liquid fat. I would even get the squirts sometimes and a couple of times I threw up. I eventually got used to it, but sometimes I still will feel kind of blah after eating that much fat. It's easier if I put the patty with the fat in the freezer for a while to solidify the fat before eating it.

I'm probably underrating fat, but I'm new to this and 80/20 is as fat heavy as I want to go at the moment. Still love cheese though so I'm getting some extra fat there.

I’ve been drinking 2 quarts a day of water & still sleepy after meal and weight stall after 50+ lb loss after clean keto for a year, now strict carnivore for 6 months. At 75 yo, 160 lb female, I should perhaps bump up the H2O to 1 gallon? Think I’ll try that…

Will apple cider vinegar/water be a good thing? I'm sooo tired (4 weeks in carnivore). Normal weight and no other transitional problems.

How many litres is ‘2 gallons’ for you, Anthony? With you being American (7 litres) but living in Australia (9 litres) it’s quite a difference 😂 What quantity do you have per hour or do you just sip all the time? Also, how much time do you leave water drinking before and after eating? Thanks

What some "experts" refuse to accept is some people have a biological chemistry or lifestyle that needs carbs from 50g to 300g a day.

I don't think so. I was on Keto for a week and then on carnivore for 3 weeks and suddenly I've got extremely tired. I think I am not eating enough.
