[QUOTE="Simeon_Strangelight, post: 1293645, member: 6783"] I went full carnivore for a few days at a time, then a bit of carbs and some sauerkraut on the side. It's true that you lose bodyweight for some. Sometimes getting not the highest-quality beef or pork does not seem to be a disadvantage, because ingesting less iron is not bad as some long-term carnivores can have an overload of iron. I heard it only from 100%-carnis who went for 6+ years on beef only. Then on the other side you have the 10-20+ year old veterans who report doing it with all kinds of meats and having zero issues, iron-levels not even being an issue either. So lesser quality meats sometimes is a plus there. Personally I wouldn't sweat it - unless you are one of the few men out there with chronic issues, then full carnivore is a good cutting tool and an intermittent diet. Though I do think that a 75-90%+ carni diet may be good. Currently the average American eats the opposite - 75-85% plant-based, so the opposite is better for averages. I even heard people getting slimmer on a diet of hamburgers only because they simply cut down the plant-percentage and all seed-oils. Either way - interesting thread... [/QUOTE]
