So here I am wrapping up TWO MONTHS on beef, salt, coffee and water! This week I had my first two legitimately bad days, but thankfully that was due to an unsuccesful attempt at introducing a mixture of herbs to treat a co-infection and not a flare up. I’ll write more about what I was …

Carnivore update: Week 6
Congratulations to me! I have finished week 6 of my all beef, salt, water and black coffee diet. I originally set out to do this diet for six weeks, so I am happy to have achieved this goal! I have made it through two birthdays, a week of vacation and July 4th with no cheating. …
How I came to be on an all beef diet: Part 3
This year I started listening to Jordan Peterson’s lectures on the Old Testament and was blown away by the magnitude of his insight and ideas. I became a massive fan.

Carnivore update: Week 3
I can’t believe I’ve made it 3 weeks already on my beef, salt, black coffee and water diet. This week I did find it more difficult than usual to look at fruit especially, like golden slices of kiwi and fresh blueberries picked off the bush in the back yard. Mom’s homemade yogurt looked creamily sublime. …
Carnivore update: Week 2
Everything’s going good on the diet. They say that the adaption period is 1-2 weeks, in other words the amount of time you’ll potentially be miserable, but I really haven’t experienced anything other than normal. I’ve got some major symptoms with Mold Illness/Lyme, including this week a couple days I had to go to bed …
Carnivore update: Week 1
Carnivore week 1 update! I thought I would post an update on my progress after I complete each week of my beef, salt and (um) black coffee diet for anyone who’s curious. It’s been a really interesting week. So first I had to get the amount of fat right. Grass fed ribeyes from Kroger didn’t …
