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.
Hello. I previously did Keto about 5 years ago and felt great and loss tons of fat. I fell off the wagon when family failed to be supportive. Fast-forward to about a month ago and realized I had to do something because my health started declining. (I have several health issues and more started popping up.) I went Carnivore on 09/27/24, meat, butter/ghee, and water only. Salt to taste, no spices, sauces, or sweetners, and the occasional Keto Chow electrolytes. After a month of this, I started feeling sick yesterday. Feeling very nauseous and having upper abdominal pain. I'm feeling defeated because because yesterday morning was the first time since starting Carnivore that I actually felt good. But then yesterday evening, the pain and nausea started and has continued today. I haven't had a gallbladder since 2006, but I did Keto just fine previously. Wondering what could be the issue. Is this die off?
