Dairy is perfectly fine on carnivore provided you are lactose tolerant, which I am. Dairy is an animal product. Just make sure that it’s not low fat because low fat is nothing but sugar. For those that are lactose intolerant , many can still enjoy butter because it’s almost all fat and fat is good. Cheese and cream is also good. Fruits and vegetables are not carnivore and there is no place for them in our diet. Fruits are nothing but fructose and have little nutritional value and vegetables are even worse with their toxins and anti-nutrients. What little bit of nutrition they have is not bio available to us so I don’t see the point in eating them. That goes for seeds and seed oils as well. If you want to quit carnivore and bring fruits and vegetables back into your diet then go ahead. It’s your choice and if they don’t affect you in any way then fine, enjoy them. I just know that I can’t tolerate them and have no desire to reverse all of the healing I’ve experienced. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s my understanding that scurvy is not caused by lack of vitamin C and there are thousands of carnivores that prove this. Getting sick and being susceptible to every little disease around you is due to poor metabolic health. Once your body is healed it is much better at warding off illnesses. 60 days into my carnivore transformation I caught a cold. I was over it in 24 hours. In, out, no lingering. If you don’t have the confidence to go full carnivore and don’t believe the testimonies of thousands upon thousands of carnivores that have been doing this for 10, 15, 20 years or longer then by all means, take your C supplements, eat your fruits and vegetables and do what’s right for you. Me, I completely trust what I have learned and experienced. I also know that I cannot be healthy eating those non-nutritious foods. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

At room temperature it will last 12 months. It will last up to 18 months in the fridge and I’ve heard as long as 2 years. It will last over 2 years in the freezer with no problems. I’m freezing 6 jars. 3 jars will go in the fridge and one jar will stay out on the counter at room temp for cooking. It’s much easier to use when it’s soft. I also don’t refrigerate the butter that I’m using, only if I’m storing it. I use salted butter and it keeps just fine at room temp. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve noticed several newcomers to this lifestyle tend to get confused about what they can eat or get bored with just eating the same old thing over and over and then there’s some that just don’t have much imagination around food and in the kitchen. Well this is a thread for everyone to post what they eat each day. It doesn’t matter if it’s something you eat day in and day out or if it’s something that’s unique but still in the spectrum of carnivore, post it up. It may help inspire someone to stick with their diet plan and reach their goals by introducing something new to their diet. So, What did you eat today? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And that’s why I failed on Adkins. I was successful for ten years on Adkins but it just allowed too many triggers in that were eventually my downfall. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pretty much Bob. I’ve got another batch going today. I beef fat trimmings, usually from a brisket but this time from ribeye trimmings, cut them up into half inch to one inch chunks. Put them in a large pot and turn the heat in low. I like to keep the temperature around 200°. I want to render not cook the fat. I’m using a non stick pot which helps with keeping the fat pieces from sticking but it still needs to be stirred often. This takes hours to do. When the fat pieces turn brown and it look like all the tallow is rendered out then I put a large strainer over a smaller pot with some paper towel in the strainer for a filter. I dump the liquid tallow and fat pieces into the strainer. I give it some time to finish dripping and then pour the beautiful liquid tallow into mason jars and put them in the fridge. The rendered out fat pieces will be put into baggies and refrigerated. I like to put them in scrambled eggs for a little fat bomb and I’ll give some to my dogs for treats. I’ll continue this thread with pictures as I finish this batch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No, just choose how you wish to eat and start doing it. Depending on how unhealthy you are metabolically you are you may experience some issues as your body adjusts and heals but if you stay with it you will see results. If you’d like you might ease into just by cleaning up your diet. Get rid of all sugars. For me that includes artificial sweeteners but some people aren’t willing to give that up. Your choice. Get rid of all seed oils. Use animal fats only and that includes the ingredients in your processed foods. I also avoid all seeds and grains but for many that’s too restrictive. If you choose to eat vegetables then try to eat only whole fresh vegetables that are low in the carb value index and limit or do without sugary, seed oil sauces or dressings. Good luck in your journey and good health. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Certainly. It varies quite a bit since there’s so much to choose from but I’ll tell you what I’m going to eat today. Breakfast: 1 cup of bulletproof tea. That’s it. I don’t eat breakfast because I only eat when my body says it needs fuel. I’m never hungry when I first get up because what I ate the day before carries me over to the next afternoon. Lunch: I may or may not eat around this time. Once again, only if I get hungry. So let’s say I’m hungry around noon, I’m thinking about eating some pork rind nachos. The pork rinds are clean, meaning they have no sugars, sweeteners and are only cooked in lard. I will put some clean venison chorizo over the pork rinds and some Fontina cheese. I’ll nuke it until the cheese melts and then have a little sour cream with them. This will be on a large plate and I will fill that plate up. I will eat until I’m stuffed. Supper: Normally when I eat my first meal that will keep me satisfied for anywhere from 18 to 24 hours but if I do get hungry later in the day I’ll eat some clean venison German sausage and maybe 3 over easy eggs. I am for the most part OMAD. I rarely eat more than one meal a day. Tomorrow my one meal may be four scrambled eggs with some venison breakfast sausage or maybe some lamb burger. Maybe I’ll smoke some lamb chops or slow cook some venison steaks in some bone broth. In my freezer I have Beef, lamb, pork and venison. Plenty of variety but If all I had was beef,pork, chicken and eggs that would be plenty for me to choose from. I’m only limited to my imagination. I am so fat adapted that I no longer care about eating for pleasure, although I do like my food to taste good, I eat for nutrition. There are many carnivore recipes online that are pretty good. I made some cheesy egg muffins yesterday, while rendering down some fat into tallow, that I got online and they’re tasty. I’ll definitely be making those again for road trips and camping.

Red pill, Sherry or Blue pill. Every one has a choice. We chose the red pill. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’ve heard of them and would be willing to attend one but I’ve never heard of any in my area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pretty much. Carnivore is a subset of keto. Both focus on eating a high fat and protein diet and becoming fat adapted. The difference being that keto allows some carbs, 20 grams or less, while carnivore, if being strict, allows only animal products, water and salt. “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.” Aristotle

I don’t understand how it can be confusing. It’s the simplest way of eating in the world. If it comes from an animal you can eat it. That’s meat of any kind. Eggs. Dairy if you can tolerate it. Butter. Tallow. Lard. Water. Salt. The more fat the better. All eaten until completely satiated or full to the point you don’t want any more. The only caveat to that would be if you are of a special physiology that your body may not tolerate a specific type of animal such as chicken or pork then you would keep those out but that’s been pretty rare in my experience. Today I ate three different types of sausages. Breakfast sausage, German sausage and chorizo and eggs. All venison and all cooked in the fat from cooking the breakfast sausage. I ate that around noon and I’m still full seven hours later and that will sustain me for at least 24 hours. Yesterday I ate a salmon and cheese quiche. So in the last two days I’ve had two meals that consisted of meat, eggs and cheese. See, pretty simple. “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit.” Aristotle
