You’re welcome.

How long have you been carnivore? Evaluate your diet and see if there is something that could be aggravating your arthritis. Often foods that may be high in histamines can affect our joints if we are sensitive to them. In order to find out you may need to go Lion Diet and see if things clear up. If they do then add one thing back in at a time and give it a week or two and see how that goes. Flare up? Then that’s it. No flare up then you can keep it in the diet. Another thing it could be is oxalate dumping. It can definitely affect our joints and it can occur over several years. That can just take time to get over. I have some pretty bad arthritis in my joints and hands due to a lifetime of hard living, injuries and 41 years as a mechanic. Carnivore has done wondrous things for my arthritis but I still have flare ups now and again. They settle down after awhile so I don’t pay too much attention to them but if they were long lasting id definitely go strict Lion to see if that helped. I hope you find some relief.

Integrity Stands on Principle “And the king appointed for them a daily ration from the king’s choice food and from the wine which he drank, and appointed that they should be educated three years, at the end of which they were to enter the king’s personal service. . . . But Daniel made up his mind that he would not defile himself with the king’s choice food or with the wine which he drank; so he sought permission from the commander of the officials that he might not defile himself” (Daniel 1:5,8). Godly integrity is built upon the foundation of biblical authority. From the world’s perspective, King Nebuchadnezzar had much to offer his Hebrew captives: the best food, the best education, and high positions in his kingdom. But Daniel’s perspective was quite different. He did not object to receiving a pagan education because God had given no direct prohibition against that, and a Babylonian education had much to offer in the areas of architecture and science. But as with anyone receiving a secular education, Daniel would have to exercise discernment in sorting out the true from the false and the good from the bad. It was when Daniel was asked to violate a direct command from God that he drew the line and took his stand on biblical principle. That’s the character of godly integrity. It bases decisions on the principles from God’s Word, not on mere preference, intimidation, or peer pressure. Seemingly Daniel had every reason to compromise: he was young, away from home, and facing severe consequences if he defied the king’s order. Yet he was unwavering in his obedience to God. Although Daniel couldn’t obey the king’s order, he handled the situation in a wise and respectful manner by seeking permission to abstain from eating what God had forbidden. From his example we learn that standing on principle will sometimes put us at odds with those in authority over us, but even then we can love and respect them. Wow! When I was reading this in my devotional this morning it spoke to me not only in how we live our daily lives but I really saw how this relates to how we approach our nutrition. When I adopted this WOE it became my lifestyle and I made a commitment to it in a similar way that I have a commitment to God. I must constantly filter through the information we receive on health and nutrition to discern what is good and bad. When presented with an opportunity to violate my commitment to my body I have to rely on my integrity to that commitment. When traveling, going out or meeting with friends and family I still must be principled and unwavering in my commitment to my health. Just as I’m committed to my Savior I’m committed to my health. Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body. (1 Corinthians 6:19, ESV)

Adding to my pantry so to speak.

Welcome to our group. You’ll find a wealth of knowledge around here.

I can’t access the article but I have seen the advertisements on utube. I ignore them. I’ve found the proper human diet and you can’t improve on perfection. You are right though, many people will fall the “Magic Bullet” easy weight loss scam just like they’ve done with Weight Watchers and many others that promise quick and easy as long as you buy something. People are gullible.

In 12 to 18 months. Gotta let em grow.

That’s the best way to use bacon imo.

One lamb quarter and one wild hog quarter on the smoker today.

Looks like that smoke box is getting it done.

Sounds interesting and I’d try it.

I make my own bacon so it’s really a non issue for me and I can control what goes into mine but for most people who are not sensitive to the ingredients in normal store bought bacon it’s a nonissue. Now if you just want to be as pure as possible that’s a good way to go. Looking over the ingredient labels on some in that article they shouldn’t be allowed to be called bacon because they are just pork belly with some seasoning. Rather than spend that much money on that processed pork belly one could just buy the slab of pork belly themselves and season it as they please. I’m a fairly strict carnivore but I’m also a big believer in not letting perfection be the enemy of good. As long as what you eat is not causing any adverse reactions then eat how you want.

Gotta love some ribeyes.

I can eat eggs just about any way but balut.

Starting the day off with rib meat tacos.

The breakfast of champions. ribeye & eggs.

Give it a shot and let us know how it works out. It certainly can’t hurt.

Interesting. I’ve heard of the egg fast before but never felt the need to try it. The egg is the perfect food in my opinion.

Absolutely it’s caused by cutting out the carbs. When we eat a standard diet consisting of mostly carbs our body will prioritize the glucose from those carbs as energy and it does it fast. It also creates a rollercoaster effect that brings us high and then crashing low like a drug addict demanding that we consume more. One of the reasons we rarely feel full and satisfied eating carbs. When we stop eating carbs then our body is forced to start using fat for energy. I believe that as we transition into burning fat or ketones for fuel there is a lag as the glucose runs out and the fat starts ramping up the ketone production. How fast this happens is up to each individual physiology. Hang in there and it should get better. In the beginning of carnivore we tend to eat less because we feel satiated for a long time and also because we were brainwashed to believe we need to eat less to lose weight. So make sure you are eating enough food, especially fat since that is now your only source of fuel.

I will also add that we no longer have the vegetables and grains that God originally made. Everything we have today was made by man made genetically engineering.

That’ll work.

Scrambled eggs an venison burger today.

Watch this and decide for yourself.
