@paulsaladinomd@SamaHoole You helped me a lot Paul. I believe you’re a good guy and the ingredients for your protein bar look good. The hate is not warranted. Keep up the good work, many appreciate you
>Not sure where this level of vitriol is coming from, Sama, but I appreciate you sharing your thoughts, let's clarify a few points.
>I'm genuinely happy if my work has helped anyone (and I've seen plenty of positive stories in the comments). That's always been the goal.
>Carnivore was a powerful tool for me, it helped heal my eczema by removing potential plant triggers and taught me a ton about bioindividuality. It worked well for a while, but it wasn't sustainable long-term for my body. Adding real-food carbs (fruit, honey) dramatically improved my testosterone, thyroid, sleep, energy, and workouts. That's not opinion; it's what my labs and how I feel show. Bioindividuality is real, what works for one person (or at one life stage) won't for everyone. I hope people take that lesson: experiment thoughtfully, prioritize simple whole foods over meds when possible.
>On fat/liver: I was eating high fat and moderate liver on strict carnivore, claims otherwise simply aren't accurate.
>Liver remains one of the most nutrient-dense foods we know of. Humans have thrived on it for hundreds of thousands of years. Fresh is ideal, but @heartandsoilHQ makes high-quality desiccated options that have genuinely helped thousands (check the testimonials). I'm proud of that work.
>Carbs from real sources like fruit/honey have solid data behind them for metabolic health in most people. No major studies show harm when consumed whole/in moderation. If you've got contrary evidence, I'd genuinely love to see it. Happy to host you on the podcast to discuss carbs, keto downsides (thyroid/sex hormones/cortisol), or anything else.
>Re: scaremongering/toxins : my goal is awareness so people can make informed choices in a world full of environmental challenges. If that content doesn't resonate, no problem,skip it.
>Vegetables work fine for some; I eat few but cheer for anyone thriving on them.
>The @eatlineage bar uses real-food sweeteners (organic honey, coconut nectar, wild blueberries/strawberries). Far cleaner than most options out there. Coconut nectar has prebiotic benefits in studies; honey brings probiotics also and improves gut flora composition. It's designed as a convenient real-food tool when steak/eggs aren't practical.
>In short: I explored strict carnivore, learned a lot, evolved based on my own results, and stayed transparent. I am thriving today because I stayed open-minded. You're welcome in Costa Rica anytime for a real conversation, ideas improve when shared in person.
Keep doing the work that helps people with diet; I respect that.
Workout time, talk soon?
