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.
Ok, so been just over a month that I stopped drinking Coke Zero. Now my Blood Glucose Level (BGL) is going down like every day. It has been like 2 weeks since I have used any fast acting insulin. Now today I reduced my long acting, Lantus insulin by 10 % . is probably too early to state i did not cut that dosage deep enough, but it could be the case. I guess it is a wait and see thing. So I beeing careful to keep accurate records of my insulin usage. It will be interesting if this trend continues. I be the first to say. If this turns out to be a big thing. I will be shocked.
Every BGL average reporting period is trending down. In simple language, my daily BGL is down 30 mg/dL in 30 days. Other than the consumption of about 2 liters (about) of COKE ZERO a day i made no other changes. Actual consumption was really like 1.5 liters a day, now that ii really think about it.
Could be shocking.
