Following Dr. Berry's advice I have lost 60 pounds and gotten healthier than I have ever been. I look great and feel the same way. Thank you Dr. Berry!

Protein is so important! 🙌 Animal protein should be the focus of our diet, then fat as needed. Thanks for debunking these myths Dr. Berry!

My urologist told me to stop eating beef and chicken. I have had many surgeries to remove abnormally large and irregularly shaped stones. The last one I had was 13x5 mm. They told me this before I started keto. I am afraid every day because of the beef and chicken protein I eat. I have lost 67lbs since February and have not had a stone YET. I just hope it isn’t coming soon. I’m glad you went over this topic.

Spot on analogy on protein here Dr. I have trained naturally for over 45 years with weights & have consumed around 200 grams of protein every day, i am almost 60 years old, never been to hospital or had a cold in over 15 years, i carry between 12 - 15 % body fat & weigh 92 kg @ 5' 11. I went for a physical last year to a local g.p & told him i consume around 6 whole eggs daily, + red meat 4 times a week but i do have 1 protein shake a day as a quick meal and fats from from avacados & olive oil & butter with little amounts of carbs but i dont think he believed me as i looked so fit, keep up the good work doc

In 1973, I was diagnosed withe Severe Hypoglycemia and Placed on a High Protein low Carbohydrate Diet Supplemented with Mega-Vitamin Therapy. I was always very active and could run full speed, (as fast as I could move my legs without falling on my face), for a mile and almost never run out of strength or energy when I was around 18 yrs old. After being on that Diet for about a month and a half, I actually felt Better and more energetic than I did at 18!

Unfortunately, I had to drop the supplements and drop the full diet as I couldn't afford it at that time.

As for using Soy products, I had an acquaintance who used a lot of Soy products, Biked everywhere, on the treadmill every morning and Pushed weights regularly. One day he showed me some open sores on his legs and asked me what I thought the Problem might be. I told him to git rid of the Soy and start eating a Greasy Hamburger at least once a week as he seemed to be getting more than a little effete to me.

Never did know if he took the advice . . . probably not too well.

Thanks Dr. Berry! I'm pre diabetic and today makes three weeks going keto/carnivore. I've lost 10lbs., and am beginning to feel better. I have to say the nine days of sugar withdrawal was HELL! Love you and Neisha!

[rhondae]

Hey, Dr Berry. I had to revisit this topic. Thanks again 🙂

[lisam]

Wow! Thank you for answering one of my most pressing questions about this topic!!!

[chcnsac]

Thank you. You answered all of my concerns about protein sources. Im a triple positive Breast Cancer survivor, diagnosed 5 yrs ago at the end of September. My oncologist told me to stay away from Soy products due to the plant based estrogen. Was also told that fat cells can produce estrogen, as can the adrenals. 18 weeks of 4 different chemo agent treatments and a continuation of Herceptin, ending at the year mark. Refused to have radiation. Said goodbye to my “girls” and am now the proud owner of foobs. Am 60+, and had always been told to not overdo the consumption of protein for fear of kidney issues. Was concerned about too much animal protein. The information seems to change daily, depending on sources. It’s so confusing. Thank you Dr. Barry 💗
