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 Folks. I'm a new guy just looking around, but thought I would run this question by and see if anyone has had a similar experience.
I am in my fifth week of carnivore and I am generally pleased with my results, to this point. I have lost about 12 pounds. I'm still drinking coffee, but have cut back from a pot a day to one or two cups per day. My only real problem is reflux, which I have had for many years. I have been taking over-the-counter omeprazole every day and have only recently educated myself to the point that I now know that I have to stop taking it if I am ever going to get an actual cure.
With the help of a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar before eating, I am now able to get by without the omeprazole or antacids for 2-3 days at a time. I expect to be off of it completely, soon.
I'm wondering if this is a sign that my stomach acid is getting properly regulated and if my esophagus is starting to heal, or if I will be battling this problem for a long time.
