The problem with meat… isn’t the meat - it’s the bad company it keeps

    Yeah carnivore is a keto diet, though we do it more for health than for weight loss. We especially cop flack based on the idea from that bad science that the meat we eat will kill us

      Which is funny, if you think about it. If that were true all the detractors would have to do is wait since carnivores won’t be able to sustain the diet. The issue would be self resolving. I don’t supplement at all, and should be dead from scurvy 6 times over or so if those people are to be believed.

      There is indeed, however, a certain diet with a very high rate of recidivism. That’s all I’m saying on the topic.

        There are more than 1 diet that’s hard to follow. Loads of people have trouble with the one you’re thinking of, many have difficulty with keto (I did until I made it fatty meat with salad, then dropped the salad)

          Lots of people use carnivore as a tool to hit a goal, then “go off” carnivore (add in some things and find their new tolerance). No hate for them either, as long as they live their life happy and healthy that is really great. They still know carnivore is a powerful tool, and if they do run into a issue again they can just go clean.

          “some” other diets will disclaim someone’s experience (if they should ever stop) as not doing it correctly, and invalidating their data.

      Personally I feel like eating only the top of the food chain where all contaminants converge is… brave

      But my energy to really give a shit is being used up by politics

        The general recommendation for zero carb is ruminant meat. I don’t think we are eating apex predators all that often although I’ve had alligator meat before. I did not particularly enjoy it, not enough fat for my liking.

        The fish I eat the most are sardines and the animal I eat most is cattle which are the step immediately above plants

        So I’m not out for sharks, lions or people as food

            I personally avoid American meat, but you have to do the best you can, and if all you are able to have is that it’s still far better than a standard diet, in my experience.

              You can get grass finished beef in America, but you might need to find a local to ask where

              That was the good thing about Reddit, loads of people from all over with local knowledge you can mine when travelling

          I’m hoping to find some actionable people and radicalise together

          Change the status quo and all that

          But I’ll make sure we bring barbecues and you are welcome after

            That is exactly what we want - fix modern chronic disease - fix the epidemic of type 2 diabetes. Join us in the insulin crusades!

                attack the elite while we’re on that?

                you mean the crypto-adventist agenda carriers? Sure, why not.
