One Year Carnivore Anniversary and Results
One Year as a Carnivore
Yesterday was my one year anniversary on the Carnivore Diet. I’m pretty psyched and proud of myself and really happy about my continued success and have loved the delicious food. When I first heard about this strange diet I thought I would really miss my veggies! But that was not the case. I felt so nourished by this all animal product diet, vegetables paled in comparison. I was surprised!
Let’s just review, What is the Carnivore Diet?
Meat
Seafood
Organ meats
Eggs
Dairy products
That’s is. That means no veggies, no fruit, no vegetable oils, nothing that doesn’t come from an animal.
That said, what have been my results? If you read my last blog, you already know some, but I’ll make a whole list.
Results of One Year on the Carnivore Diet
I feel stronger and more energetic, I have energy like I’ve never had before! I’m 65 years and I feel better than I did at any other age!
I can fly in planes and have no ear pain!
I have a new found confidence and organized thoughts. Before carnivore I was never able to repack our suitcases when we travelled. We’d be staying in a hotel and I just couldn’t conceive on how to organize our toiletries into the toiletry case, or even pack our clothes back up in the suitcase, or I couldn’t even zip the suit case closed. My husband would have to do it all! On our last trip to teach, I could easily pack up everything and get us ready for our next travel in the car! I’m just not easily confused anymore. That’s healing!
This next one is a huge healing to me. I no longer have “Highway Hypnosis”. Before carnivore if I tried to drive on trips, after about 20 minutes behind the wheel I would fall asleep. When I was trying to drive, I had to have something hot to drink to keep me awake. On our road trip before this last one, I was too afraid to even try to drive! But on this trip across the country I drove for hours, without anything hot to drink, after several hours I only stopped because I could tell my husband really wanted to drive. And I even drove fast! Amazing!
I have lost fat and I’m at my more than ideal weight. I feel really comfortable in my clothes! I’ve never been overweight and I haven’t had my fat tested, but I feel really good in my body.
Also, before I started the Carnivore Diet my naturopath wanted to diagnose me with hypothyroidism because my level was slightly low. My only symptoms were that I got cold easily and my hair was falling out too much. Since I stated eating this way, I don’t feel chilled easily and my hair stopped falling out!
Now to make it really interesting! Even though I’ve been regularly using Meditation for the last 41 years, since I was 24, but 5 months ago I started using Dr. Joe Dispenza’s meditations, several times a day. I’ve been seriously studying his books, lectures and courses. The basis of his work is that you really do create your own reality with your thoughts and feelings about that reality and how you can create a whole new body!
So, all of these improvements I speak of are actually a result of my diet and my new meditation practice!
Future Endeavors: I am now on the PaleoKetogenic Diet or PKD practiced at the PaleoMedicina Clinic in Hungary. At this clinic they treat cancer, autoimmune diseases, and type 1 diabetes. The diet seems to heal many conditions with strict adherence to the program. The type 1 diabetics who have healed were newly diagnosed. Those who are newly diagnosed still have some beta cells, the cells that produce insulin, alive. So this diet is able to correct the need for external insulin being injected. Many people travel there to take part in treatment. Dr. Zsofia Clemens was interviewed by Dr. Shawn Baker, a popular proponent of the Carnivore Diet. During the interview,Dr. Zsofia Clemens, intimated that it could take a month to heal the intestinal permeability and to start to have improvements in your health. I want to say, I’m am not presently under their care, but to the best of my ability I will be following the diet. So here’s my interpretation of the diet.
It’s an all animal product or carnivore diet
The fat to protein are very important, 2 grams of fat to 1 gram of protein
Organ meats, like liver, heart, brain, tongue etc are included every day
Now for the no’s —— No coffee, no dairy!
If interested you can further access their protocol on the website PaleoMedicina.com there you can have Skype appointments to be individually treated or to buy a copy of their diet and see pictures of the food they serve at their clinic.
So, there you have it!
That’s my plan for the next month, I’ll let you know how it turns out in my next blog.
