    Healing With Meat: My First Year on Carnivore

    ✨ One year ago, I thought I was eating all the “superfoods” — leafy greens, nuts, seeds, sweet potatoes, berries — only to discover they were loaded with oxalates that were slowly wrecking my health. On September 1, 2024 I started easing into Carnivore (more like keto at first). By February 2025, I went all-in, meat-based. What happened next? Oxalate dumping hit hard — painful crystals stored in my joints, skin, and tissues started to release. It was rough, but it was also the breakthrough I needed. Over this year I’ve: 🥩 Cleared brain fog and gained steady energy 💪 Healed joint pain and inflammation (except during oxalate dumping phases) 🏋️‍♀️ Regained muscle strength and consistency in the gym 🍳 Simplified my kitchen — two meals a day, no cravings, no food noise 💰 Saved money ditching expensive produce, powders, and “health” foods A huge turning point for me was attending the Steak and Butter Gang meetup in Montana. Being surrounded by like-minded people who understand this lifestyle was truly life-changing. It reminded me how powerful community is when you’re on a path that most people don’t understand. 💡 If you’re curious about Carnivore or want to deepen your journey, don’t do it alone. Find your people — it makes all the difference. 📌 And speaking of community, I’ll be at MeatStock 2026, and I’d love to see you there! 👉 Use my referral code LTL for $50 off any ticket: MeatStock 2026 Tickets  This is my honest look at the good, the bad, the challenges, and the lessons from my first year on Carnivore.

    Carnivore for Kids? What Parents Need to Know

    The Wall Street Journal recently ran an article on parents raising “carnivore babies”—swapping pureed fruit for ribeye—and of course, the mainstream experts freaked out. They called it extreme, risky, even an “addiction to meat.” Meanwhile, nobody blinks an eye at what most kids actually eat every day: sugary cereals, gogurts, juice boxes that aren’t juice, Lunchables, pizza rolls, Eggos, and baby formula filled with seed oils and high fructose corn syrup.  I break down: 🥩 Why animal-based nutrition makes more sense for kids than the Standard American Diet ⚠️ The truth about seed oils, high fructose corn syrup, and greenwashing food labels 📉 Childhood obesity and fatty liver disease—yes, even in elementary school kids 🎒 The back-to-school convenience food trap: Lunchables, breakfast sandwiches, and instant waffles 👶 Baby formula myths and why “fortified” doesn’t always mean healthy 🍳 How a child-led, family-style approach with real food (meat, eggs, dairy, fruit) helps kids thrive Watch this episode on YouTube here! ✅ Carnivore Curious Playlist   ✅ Curating a Life of Health, Wealth, Happiness and Joy Over 50, 60 and Beyond Playlist 🏃🏻‍♀️ My  functional movement playlist   📌 Affordable, In-depth Blood and Labs, Self Order: Go to LowerToxicLife.com - start lowering the toxins in your life - shopping lists, food labels and ingredients, recipes for cooking and personal/home care products and more!

  4. Carnivore Weight Loss STALL? The Quick Fix List

    Carnivore Weight Loss STALL? The Quick Fix List

    Stuck on your Carnivore weight loss journey? 🥩 The scale won’t budge and you’re wondering what’s going on? In this video, I break down the most common reasons for a fat or weight stall on Carnivore and how to push through it. 👉 Be Honest About What You’re Eating – Hidden sugars, seed oils from eating out, sneaky dairy, or even food addictions can slow fat loss more than you think. 👉 Fat vs Protein Balance – Too much fat can stall weight loss, but so can too much protein. I’ll share how to find the right ratio for YOU. 👉 Timing Matters – Eating 1–2 meals a day, reducing snacking, and rewarding your natural morning cortisol rhythm with a hearty breakfast can reset your fat loss. 👉 Patience is Key – Healing happens in stages, just like climbing a mountain. You may level off before the next breakthrough, but the results are worth it. If your Carnivore fat loss has stalled, this video will give you simple, actionable steps to get back on track and keep the healing going.

    We’ve Been Lied To: Dave Mac’s Carnivore Awakening

    We’ve been lied to about everything — food, health, and even vegetables. In this conversation with Dave Mac of @ZeroCarb, we dig into why moderation doesn’t work, what it’s really like living carnivore in Japan, and the surprising truths about plants, carbs, and healing. Dave shares: His doctor’s wake-up call: prediabetes + alcohol = time for change Why he started his channel out of anger at the lies we’ve been told What life is really like doing carnivore in Japan (hint: Yakiniku + steak at the table 🍖) Growing up carb-addicted in Australia and Scotland (yes, entire loaves of Wonder White bread 🤯) How bread + sugar fed his acne and pot belly as a kid Why medical “experts” dismissing carnivore as “anecdotal” is hypocritical His best advice for beginners: take it one day at a time, don’t project 10 years ahead Why beating yourself up after a slip-up leads to the donut spiral — and how to get back on track immediately The Navy SEAL mindset for carnivore: just survive the next meal, the next day, and build consistency Why planning ahead for failures is as important as planning your meals How his friends react (“nodding and backing away slowly 👀”) and why being a foreigner in Japan makes it easier to stand out His first U.S. speaking gig at MeatStock 2026 🎤🥩 Use code - LTL - for $50 off your ticket at https://meatstockconvention.com/  His final advice: “Just try it. You don’t know how good you can feel until you escape the ultra-processed cloud you’ve lived in your whole life.” 👉 Whether you’re curious, skeptical, or already meat-based, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about food.
