A Beginnerās Guide to Going Carnivore
Welcome, brave soul, to the carnivore dietāa world where steak is king, bacon is currency, and vegetables are, well, not happening. If youāve been keto-curious or youāre just tired of asking, āIs this salad dressing keto-friendly?ā then itās time to grab your fork (or handsāutensils are optional in the animal kingdom) and dive into the world of meat.

Why did the carnivore bring a steak to the party?

CHEW ON THIS!
HARDENED BILE: The most valuable piece of the cow doesnāt even have any marbling. Traders are willing to pay as much as $5,800 per ounce for cattle gallstones, twice the price of gold, due to their importance in traditional Chinese medicine.
QUESTION OF THE WEEK
I received several people asking about Ketone-IQ Shots this last week. Can I take them on the carnivore diet? Will they help me lose weight? Hereās what I know. First, Iāve tried them and actually used them a lot when I was just doing keto. I canāt say that they helped or not but I did take the leap and gave them a try. Hereās the dealā¦ Ketone-IQ Shots are exogenous ketone supplements designed to provide a boost of clean energy and focus without sugar or caffeine. They are marketed as beneficial for enhancing mental clarity and physical performance.
Incorporating Ketone-IQ Shots into a carnivore diet, which consists exclusively of animal-based foods, is generally compatible since these shots do not contain plant-derived ingredients. Some individuals following a carnivore diet have reported using exogenous ketones like Ketone-IQ to enhance energy levels and support workouts. However, it's important to note that while exogenous ketones can provide immediate energy, they may not promote weight loss and could potentially suppress the body's natural ketone production.
Additionally, the long-term effects of using exogenous ketones in conjunction with a carnivore diet are not well-studied.
As with any dietary supplement, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before adding Ketone-IQ Shots to your regimen, especially when following a restrictive diet like carnivore.

The carnivore lifestyle isnāt about rules; itās about freedomāfreedom from endless labels, complicated ingredients, and carb crashes. So, grab that steak, keep it simple, and laugh along the way. Because if lions can thrive on meat alone, why not you?
