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.
Carnivore.
Carnivore is not about eating meat. Carnivore is a mindset. It’s a mindset that we adapt to our physiology and our psyche that we will only put into our bodies that which provides the utmost nutrition for us.
We make up our minds that while a particular food, whether it be a vegetable, grain or something sweet, may taste good to us, it just doesn’t provide any benefit.
We have one food that provides all of the nutrients needed for human survival and that is meat. Why eat anything else? The only reason would be for pleasure. You have a desire to put aside nutrition for a moment of pleasure and nutrition is not your top priority.
So for those that struggle or get off track, you might want to examine your mindset, your priorities, what you want for your life.
Do you want to Do Carnivore or do you want to Be Carnivore?
It is a mindset.
If you consider plants, sugar or alcohol as a toxic substances to your body, the question becomes: do you moderate the poison dosage or avoid putting it in the body? That is my mindset. I know these are not good for me, so unless it's unintentional, I am abstaining from all sources of it
