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.
Hi, I started on keto a few month ago with the view of going carnivore. Everything I've read about it is positive and since I like meat, eggs and so on, I thought why not, I might get healthier an fitter in the process. A couple of weeks ago I got gout ( at least that is what I thought it was) in my big toe. I had to go for a bood test last week ( not for the Gout, I hadn't told my Dr. about that) and got the result today. Even before I could say anything, the Dr. asked me if I have Gout. She told me that my uric acid levels are twice a high as normal. I asked her what I might get that from, and she said the biggest triggers for that is red meat and alcohol, specifically beer. I'm not a drinker apart from an occasional glass of beer. So, that leaves red meat. Does anybody know anything about this or are there any people with similar experiences, and more importantly, is there anything I can do about it and still pursue a carnivore diet ? I would appreciate any useful comments. Doug
