Carnivore diet

Anonymous
I did this for a week and I didn’t feel hungry but I felt like I hated the food I had to eat. Food is joyless without carb. It’s pretty much eating entrees without any sides . Bunless burgers, fajitas with no peppers or bread (just cheese and meat), steak without potatoes or sauce/gravy, eggs without ketchup, meatballs without pasta.

You also can’t drink anything but water.

It’s a sad existence but it’s working. Im losing weight without any exercise.

I don’t think this carb less diet would be possible for those that exercise.

I don’t think this diet is sustainable long term. Carbs are needed for the brain. I think the people that say they’re constantly on it are liars. They’re having cheat days or cheat moments with a high carb snack or a grain.

Your body can make all the glucose it needs. You aren’t educated.

Wtf? Isn’t scurvy from the 16th century or something?

I thought meat has vitamin c
Certain organs do, but those are often skipped, unfortunately. Even then, supplements exist, so it's no reason to stop the diet.

What about sugar-free flavored beverages? Do you have to be 100% strict with it - why not include some veggies/sauces if that's what helps you stick with the diet and doesn't eliminate the benefits?

If a diet requires supplements, it is by definition NOT a healthy, sustainable diet. Carnivore, strict vegan... neither of these diets can sustain humans long-term. I'll stick to the diet that my healthy and long-lived Greek relatives eat - lots of veggies, legumes, olive oil, and yes grains. Meat and dairy, too, but in smaller amounts.

Completely agree with you. We need a variety in our diet to be healthy. Supplements are a gimmick.

There is no constipation in a true carnivore diet. You do have less frequent movements but it's not due to constipation. It's due to your body actually using the majority of the food you eat. Constipation is never an issue if you are getting plenty of animal fats

100% false. Carbs are actually poison to the brain, and are responsible for a lot of the mental health issues people are currently taking medication for.

Not true. I ran my fastest marathon after converting to this way of eating. I'm also over 50 and I have no trouble keeping on muscle when eating this way
