Today is the first day of January and is also the first day of World Carnivore Month. To that end, let's challenge ourselves to eat a carnivore diet for the entire month of January. The type of carnivore diet and the level of strictness you choose to do is entirely up to you. Examples of carnivore diets include the following...
1) The Lion Diet. A person eating the Lion Diet only consumes the flesh of ruminant animals, water, and salt.
2) The BBBE Diet. BBBE is an acronym for Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs.
3) The Carnivore Diet. This allows for the consumption of any and all animals and animal by-products, including dairy.
In any of the above examples, the object of course is to not consume any plants as part of your diet. Of course, we're not going to micromanage hoe you prepare your food, so your use of seasonings is entirely your own personal choice.
IF your circumstances don't allow you to go full on carnivore in January, then you can participate in this topic by challenge yourself to do better, above and beyond what you have been doing. For example, if you have still been eating grains, seed oils, refined sugar, or drinking alcohol, challenge yourself to avoid these items and just eat a clean, single ingredient whole foods diet such as clean keto, ketovore, or animal based.
We encourage you to check in daily, and share what you have eaten, perhaps a weigh-in if you're willing, and enjoy in some small talk. Participants in this topic will be entered into a drawing for a prize at the end of the month.
Hello! I am excited to get to interact with this group. My husband and I have been carnivore since Jan 1st this year. Prior to that, he was consuming a typical diet, and I had been consuming a very clean ketogenic diet for about 3.5 years. Between the ketogenic and carnivore diets, I have seen great improvement in my kidney function and narcolepsy symptoms. Polycystic Kidney Disease is what brought me to keto, and a sugar addiction brought me to carnivore from there. In truth, I really wasn't eating many carbs anyway. Really using "my allowance" strategically to include plenty of wine, cheese, and homemade keto treats. I was happy and surprised to find that Carnivore gives me more steady energy and less food noise.
Currently, I homeschool our kids and work very part time in Clinical Microbiology. However, I am currently taking a Certified Health Coach Course because I love helping others find health improvements using nutrition! I am excited to see where God leads us with this- I just took a leap and started Kairos Health, LLC. Kairos is a Greek word meaning the right or opportune time for decision making. I truly hope I can be helpful in someone's health journey.
