A beef tenderloin would be great for that but if that’s too expensive then ribeye or sirloin would work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just watch a video on this very subject this morning. From what I do and from what I’ve learned from this video I don’t have any problems with using it. Dr. Sten Ekberg says that MCT OIL is good for helping us get into a ketosis state but that coconut oil is not as good at doing that. Either way neither is bad for us but neither is the best form of fat for us. I use one tablespoon of coconut oil in my bulletproof tea every morning. I only drink one cup each morning so I’m only getting that little bit of coconut oil each day. I use it because the recipe for bulletproof tea or coffee calls for either MCT oil or coconut oil. Since I have the coconut oil on hand I just use it. It gives the froth to my tea that I like. After watching that video I’m thinking about using MCT to see how I like it in my tea. I do not believe it does any harm. Here’s the video https://youtu.be/vo_5K9zBdJ0?si=KSu7VWtaXVvZIg8e Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Hi

Had two more bison ribeyes today. Then I deboned 40 smoked trout and made a smoked trout dip. Now I’m in the process of rendering down some ribeye fat trimmings for tallow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome and congratulations Ignore the ignorant and stay true to yourself. You can be a good example as to the benefits of carnivore and if after that they choose remain ignorant then so be it. All that counts is your health, not their opinions. Sugar in everything, yes, that was a real eye opener for me as well when I first became carnivore. When I started reading labels looking for clean food I was surprised to see how many products had sugar but also all kinds of other ingredients that don’t belong in the human food chain. It sounds like you are doing great. Keep up the good work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don’t count the fat to protein ratios, I just make sure there’s animal fat in every thing I eat. My morning tea is bulletproof with better and coconut oil. Eggs are cooked in tallow, bacon grease or ghee. And meat I eat including chicken will be cooked in animal fats and have butter on it as a topping. Don’t just count the fat in the meat but also the fat it’s cooked in as well as anything you too it with. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve been carnivore for 282 days now and I haven’t had any desire to cheat. Since this is a lifestyle and not a diet for me there just isn’t any such thing as a cheat for me. I have experimented though with trying to add non carnivore foods back in to see how I’d react but after the results weren’t positive I’ve determined that staying a strict carnivore best for me. I’ve never heard of resetting your ketones, didn’t know that was a thing. But if that works for you and others that’s great. I get it. Reminds me when I did Adkins nearly 20 years ago, some people, when they would hit a stall or plateau would have a cheat day to try and shock the system to get things rolling again. I just can’t bring myself to do that.

Bison ribeye. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Spent the morning cutting six bison rib roasts into 12 ounce ribeyes. My pay? I get to keep the ends and any trimmings. Gotta go cut up five beef rib roast’s tomorrow. More trimmings for more tallow. I love helping out at my sister in law’s restaurant. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Never heard of beef being marketed as “High Testosterone” before. So what’s the deal? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yeah, it happens. You took a little break, no big deal. Back when I drank I used to say that every once in awhile I had to get drunk just to remind myself why I shouldn’t get drunk. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I don’t know if you fell off the wagon so much as just did a little experiment to see what would happen. Now you know. Forget the mistake, remember the lesson. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Fried up some fish today using pork rind panko breading. Folks, this is the way to go. I’ve been wanting to try using pork rind as a breading and finally got around to doing today. It’s great. Crispy texture and doesn’t taste like pork rinds. Made an egg wash with one egg and a generous splash of cream then coated the fish and fried them in tallow. And here I thought fried fish was a thing of the past for me but now I can’t wait to go catch a mess of catfish for a fish fry. I also smoked up 40 rainbows today. I’ll shred the meat and use use it to make a smoked trout dip using cream cheese. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve known enough about Statins to get off of them but this tells of their development. Just one more reason for me to keep saying no to my doctor. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Very true and that average is from people who eat a SAD therefore it cannot be used as a metric to evaluate a carnivore. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Welcome Calendyr, Bob is of course spot on with his assessment. If you want to be strict carnivore you need to eat only animal fats, animal protein, salt and water. If you want to be truly metabolically healthy you need to eliminate all seeds, seed oils, sugars and that includes non sugar sweeteners, grains and vegetable matter. I include non sugar sweeteners because they are still a processed food that can and will affect your body and health. In 2014, Israeli scientists made headlines when they linked artificial sweeteners to changes in gut bacteria. Mice, when fed artificial sweeteners for 11 weeks, had negative changes in their gut bacteria that caused increased blood sugar levels. When they implanted the bacteria from these mice into germ-free mice, they also had increases in blood sugar levels. Interestingly, the scientists were able to reverse the increase in blood sugar levels by changing the gut bacteria back to normal. However, these results haven’t been tested or replicated in humans. Lastly, give it time. You are way early into this eating lifestyle. I’ve known of many people who start out having trouble losing weight. Some have even taken months because it just took time for them to become fat adapted. Look up Kelly Hogan. Tremendous testimony from her and just look at what she has accomplished just by hanging in there. Everyone is different and their metabolism reacts differently so don’t judge yourself against what has worked for others. Also, try to remember that this is not a weight loss diet, it’s first and foremost a healing lifestyle. Losing weight is just a side benefit. Good luck on your journey.

Absolutely. When the grasshoppers are plentiful we will catch a bunch and feed them to our chickens for a tread. They have a lot of fun stealing them from each other. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Absolutely not! That is only a shortcut used by vain people that endangers their health. I used to be a bit of a gym rat and had several bodybuilder friends. Great guys for the most part but all of them were vain or insecure and sometimes both. One of those bodybuilders was a very good friend and i helped introduce him to the cowboy life. He became a good hand but the insecurities and vanity was strong in him. When he competed he was freakin huge and very heavy into the roids. He wasn’t using any kind of back alley stuff either. Is was coming from a doctor. The last ten years of his life he suffered from intestinal issues that the doctors couldn’t figure out and were thinking it might be Crohn’s or something similar. They eventually found spots or tumors on his liver. No treatments helped and they weren’t able to do a transplant because of his condition. He was 55 when he died. There is no proof that it was the steroids that shortened his life but I’d be willing to bet that it was a contributing factor. Stay away from anything that isn’t natural. Look into Natural Bodybuilding, it’s the best way. No shortcuts just nutrition and hard work. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is a lot of fudging allowed in food labels these days. Manufacturers tend to only tell half truths. Our food is rarely as clean as we are led to believe. I did find the analysis between standard eggs vs the more organic eggs. We’ve always been led to believe that the pasture raised is superior I do believe there is a better flavor.

Treat lamb exactly like you do your beef. It’s a fatty red meat just like beef but tastes different. So when I’m cooking my lamb I’ll season it a couple of hours ahead of time and let it dry brine. If I’m cooking a steak or chop I’ll cook them to rare. If I’m going to slow cook a roast or chops I’ll season and sere in a hot cast iron skillet to get a nice crust on it then just put it in the crockpot with some bone broth and cook on low until it’s fall off the bone tender. Takes about 5-8 hours. 3-4 four hours if done on high. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I put the butter on my burgers immediately after cooking. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
