Well that’s pretty interesting testimony. I’ve never heard of someone having this kind of issue unless they had a liver disease. From your explanation that sounds exactly like what you have. You may need to go see an internist and see what’s wrong. Jaundice is definitely a sign of something wrong with the liver. It also sounds like most foods bother you both meat and vegetables. That’s quite a predicament. I’m not sure what to tell you because eating the most optimal diet for humans is fat, meat, salt and water. That’s all the human body needs for nutrition. If you aren’t able to eat that and vegetables don’t sit well with you then there may not be much anyone can do for you except a doctor. I certainly hope you find a way to fix this. Good luck.

So are you trying to go full carnivore? Are you doing this for metabolic health? If so that’s great. This is the way man has always been designed to eat and regardless of whether one eats carnivore for weight loss, weight gain or just better health it’s just the proper way to eat. I’m not sure what not having a liver strong enough to eat meat means. Never head of anything like that before. I suppose if you’ve been a vegetarian for a long time you could very well get sick trying to eat too much too soon so in that case I would definitely introduce meat slowly and wean myself off of plants slowly until my body could handle the transformation. I knew a young lady who was raised strict 7th Day Adventist so she was a strict vegetarian. She was unhealthy and knew it was because of her religious diet but her aversion towards meat was so strong that when she tried to eat meat she’d just get sick and toss her cookies. Funny thing is was that she loved the refried bean burrito at a local fast food restaurant and had no problem eating it. I never had the heart to tell her that the refried beans are made with lard.

Have you tried taking a magnesium citrate supplement or a magnesium complex that includes the citrate? It’s the only thing that works for me. I don’t have a gallbladder so I don’t know if that’s part of my issue or not. I don’t know if I’m producing too much bile or not enough. In my constipation my stools are light in color. That’s generally an indicator of excessive bile production. A black stool may be an indication of blood in the stool or too much iron. Here’s an article you may find useful. https://www.healthline.com/health/bloody-or-tarry-stools Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cooked up a pound of homemade bacon today. Then cooked up a pound of venison breakfast sausage and a pound of venison chorizo. Grazed on those while I was cooking them. So I’ve got the breakfast meat covered for the next two weeks. Then I ate some more venison backstrap and steak sauce. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No sir. I used to own a half interest in a small herd but that was years ago. These come from my sister in law’s restaurant. I’m her butcher and once a week I cut her ribeyes for her from the rib roasts. She serves both beef and bison. My reward for helping her is I get a ribeye meal at the restaurant and I get to keep the end cuts and the trimmings. The bison gets eaten and the beef trimmings I render down for tallow.

Normal? No, but it’s hard to say what it may be without more information about your health and what you are eating. Usually we all have some kind of issues when first starting out as our bodies adjust but this is a new one. I can’t see anything in carnivore that could cause this unless maybe your blood pressure has dropped to unnatural levels. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m also a lover of salsa but I tried introducing it back in but with negative results so it’s out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Soft boiled eggs yolks are no different that an over easy egg or sunny side up. Now y’all got me wanting to cook some up and put them on some chaffles. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Congratulations on your progress Camchase. Five pounds is a positive thing. Yes, women tend to loose different that men but they still loose. Some women even gain in the beginning, just look at what Kelly Hogan went through and then look at her now. You really haven’t been doing this long enough to be seeing anything dramatic yet. I would like to caution you against seeing this way of eating as a weight loss diet. It’s not. It’s a way of eating, a lifestyle if you will, that is centered around getting our bodies metabolically heathy. This must happen before any serious loss will start happening. As your body heals it will first burn up the glycogen stores in your body and then it will transition over to using fat for fuel. That’s when things start to kick off. It’s not going to happen overnight and can take longer that a month so be patient please. Focus on eating a proper human diet and everything should start falling into place in its own time. Everyone is different and we all have individual journey’s and experiences with how this WOE interacts with us so please, don’t judge yourself or progress against anyone else. The only person that you are competing with is that person in the mirror. Stay motivated by reading books about carnivore. Stay immersed in the carnivore culture by watching videos of others who had great success and see how they dealt with the issues they encountered. Be encouraged by the experts as they explain how this all works in our bodies. Stay strong and stay motivated and don’t just eat a carnivore diet but instead become carnivore.

I cook everything in tallow or bacon grease and eat fatty meat. If the meat is lean such as chicken I’ll drown it in butter. I drink one cup of bulletproof tea in the morning. I say all of this to show that I’m ingesting a lot of fat and the only way I could consume more would be to drink it straight. The conventional wisdom among the carnivore community is to increase your fat intake but in my case it just hasn’t worked to ease my constipation. I don’t have a gall bladder but I don’t know if that makes a difference or not. I take the recommended electrolytes but still no help. So I started taking a magnesium citrate supplement. Well that ended to constipation but now I had movements like peanut butter. Better but far from ideal. So now a take a magnesium complex supplement that has loosened things up considerably but just a little too much as it’s about a 5 in the Bristol Stool Chart. But hey, it certainly beats the alternative. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I do love some duck. Unfortunately it’s a little pricey here or I’d eat it more often. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Since there is plenty of evidence that high cholesterol is not associated with all cause mortality I would be worried about it. But that’s just me. If I had a concern about it I would contact one of the carnivore doctors and consult with them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Can cause? How bout does cause. Amazing how they state stats and yet don’t call out the culprit. I’m am glad to see that we are slowly starting to see validation for our Woe. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
