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'm Kyle, just found out about this forum a while back and thought I'd join. I just started a low carb diet to transition to full carnivore since about October 18th last month. I turned down my bread consumption to 1-3 slices of bread per day (before it was like an average of 6-7) and started eating mostly meat and dairy products (generally no ultra processed stuff). I've also cut out all seed oils from my diet and mainly used olive oil, coconut oil and lard to cook with so far.
I discovered this diet on youtube while watching Dr. Ken Berry and Dr. Shawn Baker talk about the health benefits it brings to those that stick to it long enough. I was curious, before I never tried a diet for more than 1-2 weeks and even then I did not have a solid plan for it. So I decided to give it a go and see where it takes me health-wise. And now after doing some digging online, here I am.
I hope we'll get along! 😃
