In this meeting, a participant named Victoria discusses her recent issues with diarrhea while on a keto-carnivore diet. The host, Stephen, explains that this is a common side effect during the adaptation process and advises Victoria to reduce her fat intake and add electrolytes. Another participant, Mike, shares his conversation with his son's pediatrician who said keto can inhibit growth in children. The host explains that this is a common misconception and that ketones are beneficial for brain function and healing.

Then the group talk about treating fatty liver disease by healing the liver using fat, and eating a diet high in proteins and animal fats. They also recommend consuming electrolytes, specifically potassium, magnesium, and sodium, in equal ratios to help with muscle cramps or tightness. They discuss how calcium is not good on its own, and that supplements may prevent the absorption of needed nutrients.

Someone asked whether coffee is good for helping with fat burning on a ketogenic diet. The host said that it can help as a fat mobilizer, but excessive caffeine consumption can increase cortisol and adrenaline, which can spike insulin and pull you out of ketosis. Regarding babies being in ketosis, there is no danger to growth from being in ketosis on a ketogenic or carnivore diet. Babies are born in the metabolic state of ketosis, and their brains prefer ketones as the primary energy source. The fear of stunting growth comes from the potential lack of mTOR activation, which is necessary for growth. However, mTOR can be activated through protein intake, and it is not necessary to also consume carbohydrates to grow.
