Started Carnivore 1/25/26. Within two months I reached my weight goal of 170(from 194). Got off PPI’s after day 11, but still struggled with heartburn till a couple weeks ago. I’m guessing my gut finally adapted. Came to this forum to get advice on other issues, mainly Constipation. Due to my good results, I consider this diet my new lifestyle, but I’m still needing to make adjustments. Hopefully, I can provide and receive positive feedback as a member here.

Welcome Maat.

We are here to help and support you any way we can.

Chronic constipation has been an issue with me. Here lately I’ve been doing better though. I don’t have a gallbladder and I had a history of IBS for over 30 years so carnivore hasn’t done for me what is has for so many. It’s generally felt that upping the fat intake can help and staying hydrated as well. That hasn’t always helped me. I think I’ve finally figured out that my main issue is that I have a very slow moving bowel. It was recommended that I actually cut back on my fat intake so I’ve been eating a little less fat. I’m not sure if that’s what’s work for me but until someone changes I’ll keep going with it.

When I do get constipation then I’ll take some magnesium citrate or magnesium oxide. I’ve also been known to drink an herbal tea called Smooth Move on occasion. In an emergency I’ll use a suppository for quicker relief.

I hope this helps. Good luck.
