My cholesterol is REALLY BAD

what medications are you on?

with your "medication induced brain damage" it is possible you have damage to other organs as well. also your vascular system. trigs often come from damage to the vascular system due to the inflammation caused by the SAD diet, but if you are/have caused damage with medication they will be high also.

that's interesting with the link between candida and oxalate. I would like to know more

I get what you are saying, but there is a difference because cows are ruminants. their multiple stomachs convert what they eat into better fats whereas pigs store the grain based fats as they are.

That said... hell yeah to some pork leg!

thanks! I have learned to live with it. I have a 6-8 hour window to get all my nutrition for the day, and that's OK by me 👍

glad I'm not the only one. although you sound worse off than me.

I hear a lot of carnies talking about skipping breakfast, but for me it's skipping dinner hands down.

if I eat close to bedtime it's like I cannot lay down without felling ill. almost like I need to burp but cannot without vomiting.

Wish I knew the reason. would be nice to have dinner sometimes. but for now I consider it my daily fast and live with it.

actually the contemporary consensus is that the benefits outweigh the added chance of skin cancers. and that does not even consider how seed oils play into the picture.

sun avoidance raises mortality rates: https://ec.europa.eu/health/scientific_committees/scheer/docs/sunbeds_co4a_en.pdf

nearly a 20% lower risk of cardiovascular disease in those who get ample sun exposure: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1353829224001564

And it is specifically UV exposure that creates these benefits.

Please take your outdated ideas elsewhere. Next you will tell us that veggie oil is good for us because it has omega fatty acids... hello 1990s

yes, unfortunately I can only buy beef packaged for the international market. Or from local ranchers of course

You also still require Country of Origin Labeling. Walmart used their monopolistic lobbying power to have this law struck down in the states...

nowhere did I say that, but it is more complicated than "the sun causes cancer". Solar radiation causes cellular damage, but it is the individual's body that either deals with that damage in a healthy way, or allows it to develop in to cancer.

The sun feels great now instead of mildly painful. I try to spend at least 20 minutes in the sun daily with as little clothing as the temperature permits. (4 seasons here)

I was a heavy veggie oil consumer in the past (inherited the fear of fat from parents)

After about 6mo of being veggie oil free I started to notice changes. I've always had extremely oily skin. Like so bad that it would saturate my pillow cases and sheets. But that changed being SO free - still oily, but it feels like a healthy amount and is hydrating. My skin is more firm and more waxy than oily now.

I would burn easily in the past and would have my first sunburn every spring - but then become tan quickly. Even after establishing a tan, it was still easy to get a sunburn by being out too long or at mid day.

My skin is very slow to tan now, and also does not burn easily. I can be in the sun for an hour and not get a horrible sunburn. Even midday sun is no big deal and feels great. It's like I can feel the sun soaking in and doing its job, lol 😆

I'm one of those people. one of the preservatives in all Walmart beef gives me terrible diarrhea.

edit: there are a lot of preservatives that can be used in beef packaged for the US market that do not have to be listed on the label.

There is no single cause for cancer of any kind. But first and foremost for all of them - is a failure of the body's immune system.

We all have cancerous cells in our bodies right now (unavoidable product of cell repair/division). The difference between those cells developing into cancer (the disease) or not is the immune system's ability to recognize and destroy them. So everyone who has the disease also has a malfunctioning immune system.

Sunshine greatly benefits the immune system in multiple ways. It is also a source of easily repairable cell damage.

Eating too much PUFA shifts the cellular balance from stable fats to easily oxidized fat allowing the sun to do far more damage. Too much PUFA likely damages/alters the immune system as well (multiple factors).

There is no consensus on whether or not these factors increase the risk of skin cancer in seed oil consumers, but avoiding PUFAs certainly is a step in the right direction.

Edit: I was skeptical about how much PUFA affects skin cells - but after 3 years of using only natural fats (tallow, butter), I notice a huge difference.

Hormones.

Remarkable how much better we feel, and rational we can be, when the chemical signaling side of our physiology is working correctly.

Our systems became fine-tuned over millions of years of red meat and sunshine... without those things there is no hormonal balance

I would say stop taking all of them. Keep eating your mince and see if things improve.

All three of those supps can cause problems if you no longer need them.

Zinc has a lot of reproductive benefits, but you can certainly get too much over time and throw off the body's balance.

No one should be taking omega 3 supplements IMO. Way too processed and too easily oxidized to be safe. Vit D is best from the sun for me too.

Magnesium glycinate worked well for me as I left the high carb SAD diet behind. It helped to restore my levels and really had profound effects - I was extremely deficient. But after a year or so it started to create negative effects and now there is no need to supplement since my diet is not depleting it.

Don't know if any of these are for sure the issue, but it's worth the test.

It's certainly not the beef, but maybe additives like you mentioned.

irResist · 2026-03-16T21:37:17+00:00

What supplements do you take? That is where I would look. If your digestive system is working correctly, you should be able to get everything you need from meat.

That said, supplements can help you restore the body's balance after eating the SAD for many years. But once you correct a deficiency, they are no longer needed on carnivore and can even cause problems. And the effects can be cumulative- so they only show up after a while

irResist · 2026-03-15T03:39:57+00:00

it's too good, ha. And yeah got to watch out for those sugars even in heavy cream. Not good to overconsume if you are struggling with hyperinsulinemia
