"World Carnivore Month" January Challenge!
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.-

I am 103 days into my first carnivore journey, and so far, so good. I started because I had a terrible candida infection, my asthma was out of control, and my allergies were so severe they kept me from functioning — not to mention having pneumonia three times in six years.
The carnivore diet wasn’t something I wanted to do, but I knew I needed to try something different. I didn’t want to spend the rest of my life on inhaled and oral steroids. So far, I am down to one steroid inhaler and one over-the-counter allergy medication, and I’m hoping to wean off those soon as well.
Has anyone here also suffered from allergies and asthma? If so, how long did it take before you were able to come off all your allergy and asthma medications?
I am also a food addict, and I never expected this way of eating to free me from my food addiction. That has been an unexpected bonus. I just wanted to feel better physically. I truly never thought there would be a solution to my food addiction — I believed I would have to live with it for the rest of my life.
I am 59 years old and have struggled since I was 16. I thank God for the six years of respiratory suffering because it ultimately led me to freedom from the food addiction I had battled for most of my life.
I do feel saddened that among all the nutritionists, doctors, eating disorder therapists, and treatment centers I encountered over the years, not one of them ever mentioned a proper human diet.
I am deeply grateful for the carnivore diet and for all the people on social media who have shared their experiences.
