Ep 19 - Carnivore Diet With Sally Norton | Carnivore Cures Chronic Pain

The Primal Podcast

In this interview with Sally Norton, we discussed how a certain chemical compound called Oxalates can be extremely damaging to your health and cause neurotoxicity, anxiety, arthritis and chronic pain.

Oxalates cause inflammation

Oxalates are naturally occurring compounds found in plants, including wheat and beans. They can cause inflammation, pain and kidney stones by forming crystals in the kidneys.

The only way to eliminate oxalates is to follow a low oxalate diet, or even better a Carnivore Diet. As you remove all these chemicals and nasties from your diet, your body can heal.

Why Carnivore cures pain

The carnivore diet is a zero-carb high-fat diet that has been used to cure autoimmune diseases. The carnivore diet can also cure inflammation, as well as pain and other symptoms of autoimmune disease.

Carnivores are people who eat only animal products such as meat, eggs and dairy products. They don’t eat any plant matter at all. Plants contain anti-nutrients that can be toxic to the body over time, that's why as we age we start to suffer from chronic illness and fatigue.

The carnivore diet is an effective way to treat chronic pain caused by inflammation because it eliminates all sources of carbohydrate intake that would otherwise contribute to systemic inflammation in your body. Therefore removing them from your diet will help reduce inflammation caused by autoimmunity or injury because there won't be any excess glucose floating around in your bloodstream causing distress signals on demand.

How to cure inflammation & pain

• Stop eating gluten-containing grains and foods like bread, pasta, and cereal.
• Stop eating sugar in any form (honey, agave nectar, etc.).
• Eat lots of meat and eggs (preferably from organic sources).
• Cook with butter instead of vegetable oils; this has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties as well because it's high in saturated fat, vitamin E and CLA.
