[email protected] that's drkerrygelb mail.com dot wellness is taking over the Patriot Airways. For the next hour, sit back and enjoy my interview with the carnivore doctor, doctor Lisa Wiedemann. Ultra processed foods such as packaged snacks, soft drinks and ready made meals are industrial products made with additives and minimal whole foods. While convenient and tasty, they are often high in sugar, salt, fat, offering very little nutritional value. This combination makes them very highly addictive. In countries like the US and Australia, up to 58% of dietary energy comes from these foods and their availability has increased rapidly. Research shows that frequent consumption of ultra processed foods is linked to a range of chronic diseases including heart disease, mental disorders and eye conditions like cataracts, macular degeneration, dry eyes and even higher mortality rates. Recent studies also reveal that these foods may elevate the risk of developing glaucoma, further highlighting their detrimental impact on eye health and overall well being. Today's guest, New Jersey optometric physician Doctor Lisa Wiedemann, also known as the carnivore doctor, overcame sugar, carb and processed food addiction by adopting a carnivore diet, which she has followed for the past 15 years. Now she dedicates her time to one on one coaching, leading group sessions, hosting carnivore beach retreats and sharing her knowledge on YouTube. To connect with Doctor Wienerman, follow her on Instagram or YouTube.
Arnivore Doctor and Arnivore Eye Doctor or visit her website carnivoredoctor.com dot Doctor Wiedemann thank you for joining me today.
[00:03:22] Speaker C: Oh, it's my pleasure. I am so passionate about really trying to get word out that we live in a world that is not natural anymore. You know, we were meant to be mammals on earth and hunt. And the food that is in our stores, the food that is everywhere around us, we're triggered everywhere by processed foods. And these foods are addictive and they're, they have such a high concentration of what we call seed oils, which are extremely inflammatory. And they have this horrible aspect that they have a half life of about 680 days. So that's a very long time, you know, four to six years to have this exit. And all it takes is, you know, one simple side dish of calamari or french fries or chicken wings deep fried in that horrible canola oil, some sort of seed oil. And we're not realizing how detrimental it is to our health. And I'll add to that. As far as the toxicity of our current food is the toxicity of our current electronic light situation where we are meant as mammals, to be in the dark once the sun sets and to not be exposed to the high amount of blue light that comes off of tvs, cell phones, tablets and computers, that we really need to pay attention extremely carefully both to the food we put in our mouth and the light that we allow in our eyes.
[00:05:24] Speaker B: That's a great introduction and I appreciate it, but I gotta ask you this question. I know you live down near the beach. Back in the seventies, eighties and even nineties, you'd walk on the beach and people were thin. Now people are very, very overweight. You know, two thirds of the population are overweight. About 40% of the population is obese. What happened?
[00:05:47] Speaker C: Yeah, so incredibly now, I guess we have to keep saying to ourselves, follow the money.
These food companies put addiction specialists on staff to make these foods, let's say doritos, pop tarts, oreos, chips ahoy, whatever you want to, you know, ice cream to make them as addictive as possible, to make them as highly profitable as possible.
And people don't understand how truly addictive sugar is. It lights up the brain like cocaine and heroin. And I talk about this a lot because I see how many people suffer and get to overweight and ill health because they cant stop themselves from turning to food, and we end up turning to food for all sorts of wrong reasons. Food becomes an emotional event, and we tend to turn to food to fill an emotional void. And it has lost its initial reasoning of eat for hunger. And it has turned into a whole everything in our world. Pretty much when you think about it, it's surrounded by food. It's like, where are we going? What are we bringing? What are we having? It's family, the traditions, the socialization.
And it has become a much larger entity in life than it was ever intended, which is, let your leptin and your ghrelin dictate when you're hungry and when you're satiated. It has turned into such a hyper palatable situation that it's gotten out of control. And then add to that the toxicity of our light environment, and you have the recipe for a disaster.
[00:07:54] Speaker B: I think it's a good point, because sugar actually is more addictive than opioid drugs such as cocaine. And withdrawal from sugar could cause depression and behavioral problems, and people don't realize that. And sugar is very hard to withdraw from. And I know for myself and people that. I know that when they try to kick sugar, it could take days or even weeks. I know with me it takes me three days. I could stop sugar, and after three days, I'll stop craving it. But what do you think? I mean, you're in this community. You talk to a lot of people that are trying to kick sugar. Talk to me about the withdrawal they go through trying to kick it. And then I want to after talk about the addiction, that carbohydrates are also addictive, and withdrawal of that as well. So if you could talk about that.
[00:08:48] Speaker C: Yeah, so really, when we talk about carbohydrates and sugar, we're talking about one in the same. Because once you chew a potato or piece of bread in our mouth, our amylase enzyme breaks it down into sugar. So we can even add alcohol to that. So between carbohydrates, alcohol and sugar, we're really talking about the same entity. We have to really understand that, which is how I ended up finding the carnivore, zero carb way of life, because I realized I could not moderate sugar or carbs.
And it became so important in my recovery to understand that abstinence was really the answer. You don't tell an alcoholic, oh, you can have a shot of tequila every other weekend, it's okay. And, you know, there's that saying, you know, one bite is too many and a thousand is never enough. So you can't just have one cookie. When you are someone who is has a propensity really to be absolutely addicted to it.
[00:10:00] Speaker B: Do you have any tricks why people are going through the withdrawal and trying to withdraw from sugar? What kind of tricks do you have? I know a couple of tricks that I tried, but from you and your community you have much more experience than I do other than yeah, I have.
[00:10:17] Speaker C: Because this has been a long 15 years of coaching people out of their sugar addiction and to the point where I made a YouTube video on the top ten ways to tackle your cravings, which is basically how to get yourself through that period of when you're white knuckling it. So yeah, lots of different ideas.
[00:10:41] Speaker B: Yeah, I want to hear about that when we come back from the break. I'm speaking with Doctor Lisa Wiedemann, the carnivore doctor. Carnivore eye doctor as well.
You could go to our

So, yeah, lots of different ideas.
[00:20:41] Speaker B: Yeah, I want to hear about that. When we come back from the break, I'm speaking with Doctor Lisa Wiedemann, the carnivore doctor carnivore eye doctor as well.
You could go to our
[email protected]. dot. We'll be right back.
You're back with Doctor Terry Gebb. You're listening to wellness 1280 on open your eyes radio on AM 1280, the patriot. You could visit my website at wellness 1280 dot. Any comments? Doctor Kelly, go and look for my documentary. You can see on Apple TV or YouTube. It's called open your eyes. And I know it's on Amazon. I know people love the documentary. So if you watch it, leave some comments for us. So we're back with Doctor Lisa Wiederman at Carnivore Doctor. And she was telling us about her story and why she switched from, from eating the regular standard american diet or the sad diet, I think you call it something else than the standard atrocious diet. Atrocious diet. And were you heavy before you started?
[00:21:56] Speaker C: Yeah, I've been battling my weight my whole life.
I really, because I battled food my whole life. And it wasn't really until I realized by eliminating all of the carbohydrates, processed foods, sugars and grains that I could be free of that.
And, you know, as time went on, and I had been doing this about 1011 years at the time when Sean Baker came out about his whole conversion to it. And then there was cardiologists switching to eating carnivore and neurosurgeons and reproductive endocrinologists. And I could go on and on and I thought, wow, there's a lot of medical professionals now doing what? Back when I started, it was such an unusual thing that I felt like I was flying my freak flag. Now I feel like I have a whole community and tribe of people because this is really spreading far and wide. And basically it's, you know, you can eat any kind of meat, any type of seafood and eggs as long as you tolerate them all. And most people find incredible health benefits by doing that. And, no, you don't need fiber. I have not had a speck of fiber in 15 years, and everything is perfect, and I'll be 60 in another month or two. And I feel, yeah, really better than I've ever felt in my life. And I think that most people who look at this as crazy, you have to really think ancestrally, what did man do? Because people say, don't you get bored? Aren't you bored? What do you eat for breakfast? I said, I don't know. Sometimes ground beef, sometimes a New York strip, sometimes some lamb chops. I don't know. Depends what I'm in the mood for. But I'm never bored when I get hungry. That grilled ribeye is delicious. And you know what?
This is what would bore me. Standing in line at the pharmacist waiting for a prescription or waiting in the waiting room of a doctor. That's boring. I don't ever do that. I haven't been to the doctor in a very, very long time.
I assume that it will be if I ever break a bone. But I'm not in need of the medical sick care system.
[00:24:31] Speaker B: So are you making sure everything's grass fed and grass finished?
[00:24:36] Speaker C: That's a preference. But I'm going to say for the majority of these 15 years, I would buy my meat from Costco or on sale at the local grocery store.
I tell people, you know what?
Do what you can afford, do what, you know, eat the meat that tastes good and you can afford and then go from there. Don't over obsess. You know what?
Store bought beef, let's say grain finish, because they're all grass fed. All cows eat grass and they. It's all grass fed, but it's, whether they're grass finished or grain finished. But all of that is way better than cookies and ice cream. So don't, don't overthink the technicalities of it.
[00:25:24] Speaker B: So have you done any labs and you mentioned that you said your cholesterol is normal, but other labs are nutrient tests because you're not eating any, any type of vegetables. So are you getting do you have enough nutrients. Have you done any kind of spectra cell or to check what your nutrient, your nutrient levels are?
[00:25:46] Speaker C: Yeah, I have not done anything like spectra cell or anything like that, although I'd be willing to. If somebody wanted to see my results and offered the test, I'd be happy to. But another common question related to the vegetables is, no, I do not take any supplements or vitamins because every vitamin, mineral and nutrient I need is in my extremely nutrient dense meat.
You can add to that, some will say you should also include some organs because those are also extremely nutrient dense. I am not a fan of eating liver, so I haven't done much of that. But there's ways around that. If you feel like you can freeze it in little cubes and pop it frozen like a pill, but, yeah. So as far as all of my blood work, I used to test it every year at the beginning of this because I was skeptical myself, like, well, this can't really be the holy grail here, is it? And everything just is so normal that I stopped testing because what am I doing if something's like, a little off, you know, what am I doing? Am I gonna add a salad in?
There's nothing nutrient dense about lettuce. Let's be. Let's be real.
So, no, I, you know, I go by the fact that my teeth are strong, my nails are strong, my eyes are bright, my hair is thick. And I can't imagine that I would need to continue to be part of this testing system.
I could go further and further. I don't do mammographies or colonoscopies either. So that's a whole other. I have YouTube video about that. But, yeah, it's get yourself out of the sick care system and testing everything.
And yeah, I know it's not popular in the general public's eye to say something like that, but that's exactly where I'm at. I feel so confident that I'm eating the proper human diet.
[00:28:05] Speaker B: How about when you get together with the other physicians that are doing this type of diet? Do you guys share your labs? Do you share any kind of test to show that you're getting the proper nutrients or. That's not something that people do.
[00:28:20] Speaker C: Yeah, no, it's not necessarily. When we get together with. There's different conferences, there's one called hack your health. It's in Tampa in November 2025 next year. And there's a lot of us where physicians and scientists getting together, but it's actually talked about openly on YouTube because so many people are interested in the labs so that HSCRP, high sensitivity, c reactive protein tests, all sorts of inflammatory markers, and, you know, there's lots like, I look into Doctor Philip Ovadia, o v a d I a. I interviewed him.
[00:29:10] Speaker B: I interviewed him.
[00:29:10] Speaker C: Oh, did you?
[00:29:11] Speaker B: I interviewed him.
[00:29:13] Speaker C: Yeah, great guy. Great guy. And, yeah, talks about the labs that, you know, you should have done to kind of monitor your health. And doctor, of course, Doctor Ken Berry. And, you know, this really comes down to there's nobody out there that is. I mean, we know who's in this space, and we would have known somebody who dropped out silently, and nobody has. And everybody's the picture of health. Look up Doctor Sean O'Meara, incredible physician for health optimization. And it's just, I get excited because back when I started, I pretty much had to zip it up because nobody wanted to hear my little freaky thing that I was doing. And now that there's so many people resolving so many health issues, it's really exciting to see, share with us some.
[00:30:16] Speaker B: Of the health issues that Sean O'Mara or Ken Barry or Sean Baker. These are all physicians that they could share as being physicians. Patients are theirs, and things that have cleared up and some famous people like, how do you say, her first name.
[00:30:34] Speaker C: But Peterson, Malika Michaela Peterson. And her father, Jordan Peterson.
Jordan Peterson had significant depression issues. Michaela, his daughter, she's in her late twenties now, but in her late teens, she was already getting joint replacement because she actually ended up figuring out that vegetables plants were destroying her. She causing her extreme autoimmune issues. And her body was attacking itself from.
[00:31:04] Speaker B: The lectins in the plants.
[00:31:06] Speaker C: Yes. Oxalates, lectins, phytates. And so some of these other physicians, Doctor Robert Kilts, K I L T Z. He is a reproductive endocrinologist. He himself resolved his own health issues of can't remember them all. He had a lot, but he had bleeding hemorrhoids, he had GI issues, depression, ADHD, all sorts of things. And actually, I'll even throw out there, there's some people that are reporting remarkable improvements in autism.
But for doctor Kilts, other than his own personal health journey with it, he then now is resolving infertility and PCOS issues in his patients. Getting both the husband and the wife to join in and do this, and becoming pregnant, remarkably, and understanding it's not totally just the food. There's other things in our environment, the plastics and the NNEMF, the non native EMF. So the radiation that's coming off our Wi fi, there's a lot of different things. So I'm not just saying carnivore diet is the answer to everything, but it's a huge part of the picture. And if we just basically think about it, between that and then the toxins in our environment, I think we'll have a very good path to optimal health.
[00:32:40] Speaker B: You're speaking with Doctor Lisa Wiederman, and she probably talking about something that you don't know much about or ever heard about. So research it for yourself. Don't go by what we say we're giving you, but we're giving you our experience. I'll be back in just a moment.
We're back with Doctor Lisa Wiederman. The carnivore doctor.com is our website.
She has, she does cooking demos. So go to her website. She has a big cruise coming up if you want to learn about carnivore and get healthy the carnivore style, it's February 1 through February 7. And go to her website and join her community. All right. So, doctor Lisa, we're having some very interesting, before the break, we were talking about some famous people, some well known people, some doctors who are helping people with carnivore diet, people who probably tried everything they been able to try, and they switched to a carnivore diet. And these are smart people. You know, Phil Obadia, I examined him. He's a cardiac surgeon. He's a smart guy. Ken Berry, he's a smart, he's a fan, I think internist. He's a smart, he's a smart guy. Sean Berger is an orthopedic surgeon. These are smart people that are doing this. So are there any people that you had that had any downsides that you've noticed that you could report on?
[00:34:10] Speaker C: Gosh, that's a good question. That's one I have not been asked as far as that.
But honestly, I, you know, I'm going to say a downside is that, here's a big downside, is that people start seeing and hearing the remarkable benefits of this. We'll just call it an elimination diet. You're eliminating all the, pretty much every entity that could be possibly causing a reaction. Get yourself down to meat and water, and people see the remarkable changes that can happen and then they go, I've been doing this for three weeks and I still have pain in my knee. And I'm like, yeah, but you're 65 years old. You've been eating crap for six decades. It's not going to reverse in three weeks.
Yeah, we need vitamin P for patients it doesn't, you know, flip on a switch. And also, I'm going to say the, you know, part of the issue with staying consistent and sticking with it long enough is, guess what people are. Slide back. I call it the carb ditch. People get triggered by a, you know, a holiday or a party or a social event, and somebody's saying, what do you mean you're not going to eat chocolate again for the rest of your life? Oh, you've got to try this. This is the best sourdough bread you'll ever have. And next thing you know, six months later, you're still trying to wallow your way out, back out of that ditch.
So that becomes frustrating for people because they want instant results. There are some people who do get results fairly quickly. There are some people who do get remarkable changes in the first three weeks. So I just tell people, be patient and then understand there's other aspects of your environment. People could be in a situation where there's mold in their house and they don't realize it. They don't realize how toxic it is or how reactive they are. So there's. There's so much more to it. But I can't say that I've seen or heard anybody actually. Paul Saladino, he was originally full on Carnivore, and he.
He says that I'm trying to think if it was his electrolytes or his thyroid. He needed to go back to fruit and honey.
And for many people who listen to him now, he surfs 4 hours a day in Costa Rica. So there's a way of burning off some fruit and honey there that most people don't. But he's one that I will say, to answer your question, that has diverted off of the full carnivore path. But other than that, I'm going to really have to think hard. I think there's not a single one of us who's reverted back to eating fruit and vegetable.
[00:37:05] Speaker B: So I just want to review what exactly it is. So you have a mnemonic muse, m e w s, what's on the diet. So go over that with us so we know exactly what you eat and what's on the diethyde.
[00:37:17] Speaker C: Yeah. So, you know, the interesting thing about this is people will say, well, can you eat nuts? And I said, no, I don't eat nuts. They're actually not good for you. Almonds are high in oxalates. They're high in omega six. No, I don't eat nuts. And they said, well, can I eat olives? And then I go if it had a mother, you can eat it.
Did it have a mother? Yes or no? That's your answer?
Yeah. So, yeah, so my muse, m e. W. S. M is for meat. E is for eggs. W is for water. And s s is a variable thing that salt. Most salt. Most people salt their food to taste. Some people tolerate s for spices. Some people tolerate taco seasoning on their meat, and that's fine. And then s also for seafood. And we could just throw in all the s words of salmon, sardines, and scallops and shrimp. All s words. But that's pretty much what I live by. I basically eat beef and lamb every single day, and sometimes lots of eggs and sometimes not. I don't necessarily eat eggs for breakfast either.
[00:38:45] Speaker B: And with the seafood, are you concerned with the mercury?
[00:38:50] Speaker C: You know, mainly sardines are the small, very small fish that.
Yeah, we're not that concerned. I don't eat a lot of tuna, and actually, I don't eat a lot of seafood at all because it's not fatty enough and it doesn't have the nutrient density that beef and lamb, the ruminant beets, is really what you want to key in on. And ruminant being basically beef, lamb, elk, bison, venison, they're hooved animals that have multiple rumen stomachs.
[00:39:25] Speaker B: How about snacking?
What kind of snacks do you have?
[00:39:29] Speaker C: Yeah.
The key to this is to understand that we actually really don't need to snack on anything we eat and eat enough that you're full and satiated and you wait till your next meal and then you eat another meal. I really only eat usually two, sometimes once a day.
I do naturally intermittent fasting because that's, like I said, naturally. When you eat a high fat meal, you don't get hungry as often.
But I'm going to say for sure the amount of seafood I eat is probably 10% of my entire diet.
[00:40:19] Speaker B: How about carnivore bars?
[00:40:21] Speaker C: So I do love the carnivore bar. There's actually a company called the carnivore bar. And all it is, it's basically pemmican, which is what the Inuit and the Indians made, which is dehydrated beef that's pulverized and mixed with beef fat, and it stores indefinitely.
It's not perishable. It doesn't have to be refrigerated.
It's a delicious, tasty snack. And so, yeah, if you're hiking or out and about and you need a. Some food, that's a great one, or just plain dehydrated jerky, not the slim Jim type jerky. It pretty much 98% of the jerkies you see in the store, you pick them up and they will have brown sugar in them or molasses or some sort of sweetener because of course they know people like that taste of sweet. But you could dehydrate your own meat very easily, just thinly sliced and dehydrate. Put a little salt on it and it's a wonderful snack.
[00:41:28] Speaker B: As we're finishing up this segment, how about the HCA's, the pah, the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from grilling beef that supposedly, that could cause cancer or they're been proven supposedly carcinogenic. So tell me about those. The HCA and the pahdem.
[00:41:51] Speaker C: Yeah, I'm going to say here's, here's my take on it. So for the past 15 years, I've done plenty of grilling.
For the most part, that's how I make my, my meat. I throw it on the grill even in the winter or I will sear it in a real hot cast iron on the stove.
And as far as your question about am I concerned? No. You know why? Because I don't eat ice cream and chips and cookies and pizza anymore. So I can't imagine that I'm going to kill myself with those aromatic hydrocarbons and not have already killed myself with that garbage food I eat most of my life. So. And you know, we have to pick our battles.
I also, and I'll throw this out as a little tangent here in our last segment because this is a little zinger, is I prefer many times to eat my meat raw. And I will eat, yesterday my meal was raw ground beef. I go to a butcher and I have ground a sirloin and I take it home and I put it in a bowl and I eat it and it's so delicious and nutrient dense and I actually believe higher nutritional value than cooked food.
