Oh, ok. I'm Finnish and there was a time when I ate a lot of red meat and my resting heart rate was 120, blood pressure 140/90 and total cholesterol almost 600. I felt horrible all the time, like I could drop dead at any moment.
Then I stopped eating meat and everything changed. Resting heart rate became 50-60. Blood pressure 90/60 and total cholesterol dropped to 73.8!
I just hate the taste of meat and my body is dying when I eat it long term.
@arket, oh wow, then red meat is not good for you! I am sure when we are in tune with our bodies it will tell us what it needs. It can change too, so maybe I am going to eat differently in a year or two, who knows! The least thing I want to be is dogmatic. It is just not intelligent.
Did you eat a carnivore/paleo diet or a regular diet just with lots of meat, if I may ask?
My cholesterol was very high too but in a good way according to my doctor, and my one German doctor even scanned my veins and said they were completely clear so they was not worried.... I totally need to go and get some bloodwork done. I am so curious if anything has changed since eating so much fiber.

I did the regular keto thing and after that carnivore. Carnivore diet is when the shit really hit the fan. I used to fear for my life every time when I had to go poop, which was about once every 5th day on a carnivore diet. I had to strain so much that I started to see stars and usually I busted a vein in my eye.

Horrendous. How did you even continue suffering like that, I would have stopped immediately(I am not good in suffering). I never had issue going, doing carnivore. I went once a day, no constipation. My bowels never was happier! But I now think it was a bad idea to dont have fiber because of bile recirculating.
Funnily a guest at the restaurant I worked in in the spa hotel last 1,5 years, a guy come up to me after their dinner, and asked for my number. He told me he was a carnivore! I had not said anything to him, not about my food or anything else! He smoked though. He was a good looking guy but I dont like when men smoke(I used to be super addicted to nicotine) so I just asked for his number instead, and then I throw it in the trash...lol

I have gotten bigger boobs and butt. But I have also gained weight though, but the weight has gotten a lot to my butt and also to boobs. Yeah...lol. IDK if its the bean protocol that I am doing for about 8 month already, together with vitamin A depletion that I started one year before adding beans.
I do think my face has changed a little, to more harmonious look, my "less pretty" face side that is the right side, is getting somehow more harmonious and less different than the right... its very small changes but I am pretty sure this is so. My hair have gotten a bit fuller and eye brows too.
I can sense that my hormones have improved because often when I go grocery shopping, I end up having men looking at me in "that" way, very loving... its really nice to be honest. I am thinking they can sense my hormones somehow.
I am 47 and post menopause so I dont have any period anymore so I cant improve on that lol
The bean protocol is said to balance your hormones so I dont know if its that or also vitamin A depletion. Because i do both. But I like to think they both are contributing to healing.
@inger
Just out of curiosity, do you consume a cup and a half of nuts per day as Karen suggests?

Are you doing Karen Hurd's bean protocol? If so then you do know that fatty meats are banned, so no beef.
Not true. You can just eat lean cuts of beef.

@tommy, no not that much. I do eat a whole bag of nuts (ca 130 grams) once in a while though when I get cravings for them. And I also include nuts some days a week. A couple handfuls. But my nut consume is on and off. I have a hard time to stop eating nuts they are addictive to me and I feel they make me gain weight so I try to limit it a bit. Except sometimes I give in..lol I also eat a little organic butter here and there. Because i love it. But way less than I used to.
BTW... my nails have gotten stronger too and are not breaking off like they used to! I need to start cutting them 🙂
To me this is a really good sign that my body is finally in repair mode and building up what was broken 🙂
