This article is probably relevant.
In much the same way that, during covid, being told "this is a dengerous virus" while getting paid $40k per death meant there was zero incentive for doctors & hospital officals to question the covid treatment protocol that was actually killing people, there's little incentive for anyone to question a system that has rewarded them in some way. Who wants to believe their success or things they are proud of might actually be undeserved or built on a fraud of some kind?

Honestly, the Israel mess basically makes me want to take back any nice thing I have ever said about conservatives. Ron Paul was such a good influence & seemed to make the anti-war position part of the conservative platform, & it's like everyone has just suddenly transformed into Dick Cheney.
Well, that sounds like you are looking for reasons to dismiss Dr Baker rather than investigate what he has to say. Dr Ken Berry is good on the subject too. You could actually address any of the arguments I have made here rather than deflect away from them.
All of the friends & family that have done what I have suggested have lost weight & improved their health. My health has improved even after being an omnivorous paleo dieter for some years prior to carnivore. I'm not selling anything. Real world experience seems far more valuable than any sort of corruptible data from clearly biased sources. But Dave Feldman has done a lot of great collection & re-analysis of available data. Dom D'Agostino has lots of great info on cancer & ketosis. Kelly Hogan's stuff is good. Joe & Charlene Anderson have been carnivores for decades now & as far as I know they aren't selling anything.
And again, the prevailing narrative for decades has been that red meat would make people fat, raise blood pressure, & ultimately kill them. Doesn't the shift to "well you might lose weight, lower your blood pressure, & feel better, but you're still gonna die" just sound like a massive cope?
My diet is roughly 50/50 on fat & protien. 200-300g of each a day. I have seen people talk about higher fat having benefits, & I have seen some people who seem to prefer higher protein. I suspect some of that may have to do with what damage was done by prior eating practices & what is needed for recovery. And the requirements of certain lifestyles & living conditions.
There are plenty of records showing that people will eat any gabarge when there isn't enough food. I suspect plants & clay & the other things people have consumed are primarily just poverty foods. Something in your belly is better than nothing. The south in the US was historically poorer, but always cooked veggies in animal fat to make them healthier. That of course was inverted when animal based frying oils were swapped with what is basically plant based poisons. But maybe there is more to it than that. 🤷♂
Nah, people in regions that lacked decent sources of protien never faired all that well. There is decent evidence of societies that lived well off of meat harvested from the oceans though.
10+ years ago red meat was definitely going to make you fatter, raise your blood pressure, & ultimately kill you.
Now the cope among plant based people is that it might make you look better & lose weight, but you will still die sooner.
Sounds like Peter Schiff on #Bitcoin, yeah it might go up for a while but it's eventually going to zero.
Let go of the corporate/govt propaganda & embrace reality.

There was also quite a bit of scientific explanation in the info graphic I included before.
On top of animal foods being more nutritious & more bioavailable, plants protect themselves by producing inflammatory toxins & anti-nutrients:
glycoalkaoids, sulforaphane, salicylates, lectins, phytates, cyanide, trypsin inhibitors, oxalates, tannins, saponins, etc
There really is no lack of availability in scientific info on this subject, just a lack of financial incentive to acknowledge & promote what is true & a lack of desire to hear the truth on the part of carb addicted & brainwashed normies.
No such thing as a "natural & healthy" smoothie every day. Fruit might be ripe for harvest for like a month. It was never naturally an every day food. #carnivore
Shawn Baker is 7 years older than Dr Greger... Which one of them looks older & which looks healthier? But why limit it to well known people when there is already better data available?
There are all kinds of problems with science. I am a natural skeptic, despite the arguments I make here. Because my views are complex and nuanced and not hard on one side or the other. There are some good books. See Ben Goldacre on "Bad Science" and "Bad Pharma". I used to have a poster diagramming dozens of different biases. I could go on and on about the specifics, far beyond just funding bias, but I'd be preaching to the choir. You can dig into https://retractionwatch.com or consider https://brokenscience.org or any number of other efforts at fixing science.
But if all science is just thrown out, then we know nothing. Everything is just a guess. You get to pick what you wish were true. Personal experience is a poor replacement.
Let me bring that home. You have lost weight and lowered your blood pressure. But have you supressed cancer growth? Have you stopped the progression of atherosclerosis? Are you going to make it to 90? How would you know? The published science doesn't disagree with what you have discovered. Losing weight and lowering blood pressure on an all-meat diet are not in conflict with the nutritional science.
You don't really have to throw everything out, just the stupid conclusions. If you take the same studies & data that supposedly show high LDL causes heart disease & you control for low triglycerides you find there is actually a negative correlation between high LDL & all cause mortality. LDL can be separated into different quality lipid particles, those poorly formed from conversion of sugar & carbs into fats (which form plaque), or those from healthy stable saturated animal fats. Low trigs are the best indication that most of your LDL particles are the large fluffy kind from animal fats rather than from sugars. So when you control for the thing that indicates lower carb consumption you get longer life. And it lines up with lots of other stuff, sugar rots your teeth, sugar feeds cancer - they literally dye glucose to identify cancers in scans because cancer cells consume glucose faster than everything else. So a low sugar diet reduces cancer growth. Sugar consumption causes diabetes & pancreatic issues. Steve Jobs (the sugar addicted fruitarian) died of pancreatic cancer.
There are lots of really intelligent doctors & medical professionals doing great work & studying this stuff, but much like Austrians in the economics world they are censored & attacked & treated like black sheep.
We aren't starting from zero, you just don't want to let go of the BS you think you know.
Lol, we want to hire you, but you have to pay us first.

Not really a gif or meme, but it's pro-bitcoin & it's old
What's always so frustrating about the people who are still mentally broken by the system, is that it usually really won't do any good to tell them anything. They seem to just "feel" that you must be wrong & I think there's probably some Stockholm Syndrome like fear preventing them from even entertaining questions.
I have a friend who seemed to only become further motivated to get boosted as questions came up. Like doing the wrong thing harder might somehow drive away the need to face the reality that her trusted authority figures weren't what she thought. She got cancer. My asking if she thought the two might be related almost made her flip out on me. Idk if there's a way to ever get through mental walls like that.
Yeah, the sword of truth cuts both ways, so I can play that game too.
He also talks about how the subversion starts in universities themselves - the source of most research. Despite being shown evidence that eating steak every day improves health (which ought to spur some desire to investigate if you believe it destroys health), you think it's impossible because "the 'experts' can't all be wrong." I have been eating 2-3lbs of fatty well salted steak every day for 6+ years & I weigh less than I did in high school. I was never really overweight, but my blood pressure dropped from ~130/80 to 110/70. My health issues, which all got worse when following doctor recommendations, have all gone away.
You should start actually looking into some of the scientific research & the way it is being done. Most of it is a joke.
Basically all scientific research is done poorly & with an agenda. Corp profit margins determine everything about dietary recommendations. Would be happy to share the endless mountain of evidence on what is better for human health whenever you are ready to see it.
Pharma corps have created a pro-vaccine religion that has allowed them to sew chronic illness (which keeps people buying treatments) into society from birth for many generations.
As a result of past lobbying efforts, they get legal immunity from any damages their products cause if they can get them added to the child vaccine schedule. So all harm gets paid for by tax payers. Thankfully it seems they have overplayed their hand & pushed the vax religion in such a way around covid that a lot of it may unravel.
There are a lot of people in the industry that have known the adjuvants in vaccines cause serious problems, that's why they have changed the metals from mercury to aluminum. It didn't do any good, but they wouldn't be trying to change things it they weren't aware of the issue. But it also hasn't stopped them from creating new vaccines & further increasing the dose of metals kids are getting. And questioning any of it has always been strictly off limits, only crazy people do that. It's possible the aluminum was just cheaper & has made problems worse.
The dominant corp diet propaganda is anti-meat & pro-plant based everything, but this started with crazy 7th Day Adventists like J.H. Kellogg who wanted to craft a grain based diet that would destroy libido in order to "get people closer to God."
The dominant foreign policy propaganda has always been insanely aggressive & pro-"foreign aid" because thats how politicians launder money to themselves & cronies. Western administrations (led by the US) instigated a war between Putin & Ukraine, prevented the peace deal, & then sacrificed 100s of 1000s of drafted & enslaved Ukrainian men so they could line their own pockets. And the pro Israeli propaganda is equally atrocious.
It is a known socialist tactic to use "top down & bottom up pressure" to enact change. The soviets kept political dissidents in prison camps & regularly realeased the actual criminals so that they would terrorize the "free" citizens & make them clamour for more govt "protection." Every lawyer & poly sci major reads The Prince, & universities train them to think this way. It's our own ivy league American idiots doing the majority of the damage. Maybe that started with soviet demoralization efforts, but I think the ideology tends to perpetuate itself when left unchecked & the money printer always funds anything that will grow the State.
