Carnivore Questions LIVE & Giveaways!
In a Nutshell
Carnivore live Q&A covers Easter meat plans (chuck roasts, ribeyes), slow cooking tips, Brazilian steakhouses, and road trip hacks like outdoor air frying. Key health advice: High pre-carnivore triglycerides (796 mg/dL) drop quickly on zero carbs—wait 6 months for retests; prioritize electrolytes for spasms, bring your own dishes to holidays, and expect loose skin improvements via fasting/autophagy. Upcoming: Meatstock May 2nd ($50 off with code healinghumanity), Cholesterol Code screenings, Healing Humanity rollout (newsletter at healinghumanity.life), plus t-shirt giveaways.

- Manda from Merrill, Wisconsin: Family-sized chuck roast low and slow in slow cooker for 12 hours with tiny bit of salt.
- Adam: Ribeyes with the boys.
- Ashley: Attending Easter church service; celebrating 25th wedding anniversary on a cruise, Easter meal on ship TBD.
- Barb: Cooking chuck roast low and slow for husband's family.
- Dr. Nelson: Ribeye steak.
- Lynn: Usually prime rib on holidays; in-laws visiting, may go to Fogo de Chão Saturday to eat meat.
- Carrie: Bringing slow-cooked chuck roast to aunt's house; last year brought bacon, cheese, sausage.
Advice: Be prepared on holidays by bringing your own carnivore dish (e.g., slow cooker of meat). People usually bring a dish to pass.
Lindy: Ever had reaction at Brazilian steakhouses? Lynn had mild gut pain from seasonings (MCAS better now, no issues recently).
Recipe: Put meat in slow cooker, turn on low (8-14 hours; once 20 hours, still good). People demand precise times on YouTube.
Ashley: Slow roasts in smoker at 125-250°F depending on time; pulls at 123°F for rare (rest 20-30 min). Salts it. Lynn: Broiler pan at 500°F, 5 minutes per pound, turn oven off, sit 2 hours for rare; or slice and grill. Prime rib roast can be turned into prime rib or steaks (same cut, different cooking).
Goal: Cascade release for maximum reach (theaters, home, on-demand, streaming, Germany, everywhere) to reach millions, not just dump on YouTube for thousands. Sign up for free newsletter at healinghumanity.life for all locations and updates. Will eventually be on YouTube.
Clone 47 to Carrie: Can thrive solely on power bowl forever? Yes. Carrie did stretches of it during 1100-day carnivore journey (giant batch, eat over days). Dr. Chaffee: Get everything needed in proper proportions from fatty meat; ground beef alone sufficient, plus eggs, bacon, butter. Idea: 30-day power bowl challenge video.
Thatfearless: 2.5 years carnivore, A1c from 6.3 to 5.6, other numbers normalizing. Trust the process; healing takes time, don't give up. Amanda: Feeling absolutely amazing, best ever on carnivore.
Becky: Excited for Meatstock. Carol: Seeing Carrie and Sean at Cholesterol Code in 2 weeks. Schaumburg: Barb, Adam, Jen, Jenny Midich & husband, Dave Feldman.
Julia: Colonial Theater, Phoenixville, PA supports mission; pushing for 3 years. Opportunity to host as ambassador; details being ironed out. Cool independent theater where The Blob plays.
Lions Dan: Bringing air fryers to hotel rooms? Issues with smoke alarms, no-vent windows?
- Lynn: Used in hotel, set off smoke detector; moved near window, but shorted power. Flipped electrical panel switch; ate rare ribeye.
- Barb: Used Ninja grill outdoors with front desk permission; cooked extra ribeye for staff, sparked carnivore conversation. Tip: Ask permission, cook outside, bring extra to share.
Barb/Grandma's Crochet Corner to Dr. Nelson: Lowered fat (stopped adding much butter), lost 6 pounds this week, constant peeing. Dr. Nelson: Good for breaking stall; check for UTI (frequent urination sign). Like keto flu diuresis/electrolyte shift, but unlikely since experienced on carnivore/low-carb.
Has panel tried cod liver? Lynn bought on Amazon (pack of 3), on counter, will try. Walking by it, anticipated question.
Barb: Flavor water with fruit (not eating)? OK in minimal amounts (e.g., lemon); avoid sweet fruits like maraschino cherries to prevent cravings.
USMCPD to Adam: How/when on Amazon Prime/Netflix? Search Healing Humanity on apps. Multi-step rollout for global reach; no precise date yet. Updates via newsletter at healinghumanity.life. Will be accessible at home eventually.
Kerry offers to send a Lions Danivore t-shirt to a fan who says carnivore changed his life. Kerry provides his email: Homesteadhowatgmail.com.
New carnivore Ron Miller had blood work showing triglycerides at 8.99 mmol/L (equivalent to about 796 mg/dL after conversion by multiplying by 88.57), cholesterol 348. Doctor prescribed fenofibrate 145 mg short-term, hoping carnivore fixes it. Labs likely reflect previous carb-heavy diet. Triglycerides drop and HDL rises on carnivore by eliminating carbs. Ask how long on carnivore; use as baseline. Medication complicates tracking carnivore's effect. Request advanced lipid panel to check LDL particle size—shift from small dense (high risk) to large fluffy (low risk) on carnivore. Triglyceride to HDL ratio ideally <1 or <1.5 (<2 per some doctors); one panelist improved from 3.2 to 1. Carnivore fixed another's triglycerides to less than half.
Triglycerides near 800 mg/dL justify fenofibrate due to pancreatitis risk (higher hazard ratio than LDL). High triglycerides prevent calculated HDL—must measure directly. Stay on course, recheck after 12-16 hour fast. If new to carnivore, wait 6 months before retesting (don't trust early results). Compare to pre-carnivore baseline. If persistent, try decreasing fat.
Winner: Barbara. Claim at healinghumanity.movie/giveaway; Ashley will send.
Post best question/story with #life, follow panelists (links in description). Random drawing.
No recent news; hasn't posted much. Had rough years caring for daughter who went blind (lives 1 hour away). Grateful for weight loss enabling help. Had skin removal surgery successfully. Stressed but coping well.
No personal cases of healing solely via carnivore/lion diet. Not medical advice—work with knowledgeable physician for root cause. Intestinal parasites rare in sanitized areas, obvious symptoms, common in unsanitary countries. Other parasites in body tissues different; Coach Lisa discusses.
- Panelist with MTHFR variant: Homocysteine Supreme for high homocysteine/low folate (poor B-vitamin processing), DAO for histamine breakdown, iodine, vitamin D (backed off as levels high), upcoming chelation for lead, mycotoxin detox for MCAS. Works with naturopath.
- Another: Liver 500 (liver support), various magnesiums, vitamin D, immune support; cycles with functional nutritionist. Avoid influencer hype—work with professional, add one at a time. Take breaks if body feels off.
- Adam: Electrolyte salt (link in description).
Dill pickle juice works for some. Prioritize electrolytes (supplement, make own, or try zero salt—solved one's leg cramps on strict carnivore). Dr. Nelson confirms pickle juice helps many; find electrolyte sweet spot (e.g., Culture brand, mix own sodium/potassium, separate magnesium). Differentiate twitch vs. charley horse (latter may indicate dehydration—ensure fluids).
Ron only 4 days into beef-only carnivore; labs pre-carnivore. Cut carbs—triglycerides drop quickly in 99% (exceptions rare). Wait 6 months for cholesterol tests. Coffee can raise triglycerides 20+ points (up to >500 with a few cups).
No one tired after 18 months (Ashley), 3 years (another prefers rare now, phases for ground beef). Still favorite meal; cooked fish for family but chose NY strip.
Charity (50F): Down 116 lbs in 2 years (74 in 14 months). Fasting/autophagy may improve skin (hit-or-miss). Younger skin (<50) has more elastin/collagen, more likely to snap back—but variable. Alternative: regain fat. Surgery risks micro brain trauma from anesthesia.
Anecdotal cases, including one in documentary where diagnosis removed. Benefits any condition 99% of time with nutrient-dense building blocks.
Question on Jenny Midich's protocol (wild game meat unavailable): Wild salmon, cod, sardines, oysters, egg whites? Unfamiliar with details. Wild game lean/pure; substitute lean options like bison, elk (e.g., Imperfect Foods). Check if ruminants only.
May be worth it for motor function nerve damage, but no clear yes/no without specifics (injection site, PRP/own/foreign stem cells).
Harder than sugar for some. Try fasting (one did 30 days). Mindset, goal, accountability partner. Test 1 week (may extend). Adam's protocol: Replace coffee with caffeine pills (titrate dose: e.g., half/quarter pill per cup, reduce quarter pill every 3-4 days). Worked until offered coffee by 65-year carnivore Maggie.
Winner: Catherine. Claim at healinghumanity.movie/giveaway; Lynn sends code. Join: healinghumanity.life (promo in description). 12 Zoom calls/week with doctors/experts.
Meatstock upcoming. Barb's show tomorrow: Rare Mann family member interview (Baxter?). Links for all panelists. Thursdays 6pm CST.
