What is the Carnivore Diet?

The carnivore diet focuses exclusively on animal products — meat, fish, eggs, and sometimes dairy. It's an elimination approach that removes all plant foods for maximum simplicity.

Ribeye, Eggs & Organ Meats

Fatty cuts of beef, eggs, fish, liver, and animal fats like butter and tallow.

Elimination Protocol

Often used for 30-90 days to identify food sensitivities and reduce inflammation.

Reported Benefits

Weight loss, mental clarity, improved digestion, and relief from autoimmune symptoms.

How to Do the Carnivore Diet

Four steps to start a carnivore diet meal plan — from your first grocery trip to full adaptation.

1

Clear Your Pantry & Stock Up

Remove all plant foods. Buy ribeye, ground beef (80/20), eggs, bacon, butter, and salt. That's your starter kit.

2

Eat Fatty Meat Until Full

No calorie counting. Choose fatty cuts — ribeye, pork belly, salmon. Fat replaces carbs as your primary energy source.

3

Salt Generously & Hydrate

Without processed food, you need 3-5g of sodium daily. Add electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium) especially in the first 2 weeks.

4

Add Organ Meats & Variety

By week 2, include beef liver 1-2x weekly for vitamins A, K2, B12, and iron. Add fish, lamb, and pork for variety.
