Today we recorded a follow up Q & A Episode with the brilliant Dr. Elizabeth Bright
After my long rambling intro as these are HUGE topics near and dear to my personal journey... here is the big list of our questions we dive into today:
1. What to do is test with high cortisol vs. low cortisol + low thyroid?
2. Who needs iodine? Why? How much?
3. Butter… what are the benefits
4. Do we need to do fasting for cell autophagy?
5. Do we need to be in nutritional ketosis? How long?
6. I have amenorrhea. How much fat should I eat? I can’t eat butter because I have a leaky gut and butter gives me indigestion and my stomach bloats. What fat is best for me?
7. Why in carnivore can triglycerides rise?
8. I have been doing high fat carnivores for a year now. My hormones have gotten so much better. I am sleeping great, and sex isn’t painful anymore. I am still having trouble building muscle and my skin is a little creepy. Lost skin and muscle tone after a few years is chronic stress.
a. Is it possible to tighten the skin and what do you suggest I do to build muscle?
b. I lift weights 2-3 x week and no more cardio: just movement.
9. What are the clearest tests for checking hormones if weight loss is a challenge?
a. How long on carnivore should one give to start experience changes in hormone balance?
b. What role does cortisol play in hormone balance particularly when weight loss is an issue?
c. What is the ideal balance of high fat/low carb eating, fasting or not fasting, weight training act for women in their 40s?
10. Zero carb for too long spiking cortisol… some people have suggested tactical carb intake before and during cycle as well as Sally Norton suggestion the combination of oxalate dumping along with zero carb might trigger a cortisol issue and suggesting similar.
11. Is it normal problem for large weight fluctuations? At 24 BMI now and can’t seem to hold it there or get the last 10 lbs. off at age 62
12. Fasted workouts -resistance training yes or no?
13. If I have a sluggish liver and gallbladder – along with Hashimoto’s, what is recommended in order to have high fat diet?
14. I am finding it very difficult to lose weight in peri menopause and actually gaining weight. Am I eating too much fat? Too many calories? What is good amount of fat during this phase? I recently heard women on another podcast say she ate less fat. I just started working out (strength training) but that scale won’t budge. Thank you.
15. I have been on carnivore for a few months now. I recently let go of dairy which I really enjoyed because I wasn’t feeling well but not I am noticing that I am losing interest in my food and getting very bored with it. I loved nuts which I consumed while on keto. Although, I know they are not carnivore what are your thoughts on incorporating them into the diet and how would they possibly affect me (nuts).

1. Menopause. Why do we go through it? How can we enjoy this time of life? There 45*/is a plethora of confusing and misleading information out there about menopause: what to take, what to eat. Women may begin to wonder: is there something wrong with our bodies? And if menopause is natural, why do doctors, pharmaceutical companies, and the media recommend so much medication to treat menopausal symptoms?
2. The last sixty years of dietary advice, warning women to avoid fat, have actually worsened women’s health.
3. If you’re approaching menopause, in menopause, or are interested in improving your health naturally, here is a book that explains the history of menopause, the evolutionary benefits of this life event, and how to eat the right foods to help you enjoy what should be the longest and most fulfilling part of your life.
4. This book is the first of a three-book series that shows how important eating good fat is for a woman’s health at every stage of her life.
