    Pork chops with salt, pepper, paprika, cinnamon, and a slab of butter. Cooked in cast iron.

    I'll start with an easy one. This book I read last year and got me to seriously consider a lifestyle change. I've always been a disciplined eater but I lived with the wrong information. This book changed that mostly.

    I wanted to start a thread consisting of book recommendations. I hope a thread as such is not already in existence, if so, please delete. In my personal journey of decades of reading books regarding diet and health, I had some life changing books that were paradigm changing. I encourage anyone who is an avid reader like me, to share with us the books that changed your life with regards to diet and health.

    Remember when using dairy, use those low in lactose (goat cheese), lactose being a sugar. We respond differently per individual to dairy for numerous reasons (genetics, sensitivities, etc). Alcohol turns into sugar, as is well stated in this thread, as well as common knowledge for most. But alcohol does so much more to our bodies. First and foremost, alcohol disrupts protein synthesis. While this would depend on the amounts of alcohol you consume, this may differ per person. Muscle atrophy may be the result. Muscle is responsible for maintaining your glucose levels as well as partaking in the metabolic rate. If that makes sense. Muscle mass is crucial for general health, maintaining homeostasis. Alcohol can disrupt your ability to maintain or gain muscle mass. This is why we do not focus on weight loss, ever. We focus on FAT loss. This is why I so strongly advocate strength training over anything. At any age. Now let's consider the effects of alcohol on your hormones. It leads to hormone imbalance and hormone production. This is bad news, and yet another reason why alcohol is so toxic. Additionally, the intake of calcium specifically is disrupted by alcohol as well. While dairy can be of limited detriment to your progress, we do know that alcohol is an absolute toxin. Now that this lecture is over lol, I do admit, I have a nice bottle of Chivas Regal that I cherish once a month with two dedicated and joyful consumptions. You CAN reduce alcohol intake and still enjoy the vice for what it is. Good luck with your journey.

    Good to know we're in good hands. Also good to know you have taken no offense, I'd be bummed. There's been times when things got lost in translation living abroad, even though I think I have gotten quite proficient in the English language by now. The brain still thinks Dutch sometimes. I always tell people, if I truly wished to offend you, you'd know without a doubt, so when in doubt, just ask.

    Couldn't*

    Couldn't be lol. I do apologize. After 23 years of speaking English as a second language, I do still make these silly mistakes, I hope you'd caught on to that. Again, apologies.

    Combine sugar with fats... this is dangerous information. Don't do this.

    But wait, there's more!

    Me too, I was heading for the fridge to check.

    Yes, same thing can be said about religion, that is why we should not conflate the two. Eating is by definition NOT a religion. That would be my counter argument, and solely my view, nothing more, nothing less.

    Just letting everybody know I am safe and sound, and survived the butter debacle of 2024! Be safe out there folks!

    It's why I always hope carnivores don't turn into the same type of zealots. Ya know? Like cross-fitters. Some people become what they're in to. It becomes an identity and I think at that point we lose the plot. It closes others from adapting our health choices that we think are best. I make efforts on not telling people what to eat because it reminds me of vegans, which is close to a cult, in my humble opinion. Especially because they think they have the moral high ground. I will never appreciate this coming from carnivores, as we very well know that it only sets people against them. We'll become a meme, a joke, or even, a cult. My wife is not carnivore, she is very health minded, I never try to convince her. She is just seeing I am doing so much better and starts asking questions.

    I just saw this. Hilarious delivery by Ken Berry. Almost had me. The silliness that is the FDA. What a waste of resources. Hopefully that's another agency that will get cleaned out.

    You're not obligated to explain what you eat, nor should any one. I understand you just had fun conversation so it doesn't really matter. Good to see they had an open mind at least.
  22. Orweller
    I don't eat anything notable enough worthy of this thread. I had egg, ham, and cheese. See?

    Hi and welcome. I do believe there are zoom meetings every now and then. Good luck on your journey.

    Exactly, one step at a time. If coffee and sugar is the only thing you do outside of an animal based diet, you're already doing really good. I am still working on it myself. Carnivore does not mean 100% animal products. Perfection is the enemy of progress.
