Carnivore

The Carnivore Diet: A Path to Healing and Strength

The Carnivore diet, also known as the meat-eating diet, is a nutritional approach centered exclusively on animal products.

 

Its foundation is simple yet powerful: a focus on meat, organ meats, fish, eggs, and animal fats. Common staples include beef, pork, lamb, poultry, liver, heart, and fatty cuts of meat. Some followers also include low-lactose dairy products like butter, hard cheeses, or even raw milk. Others choose the strict version—consuming only meat, salt, and water.

While the diet may sound extreme, it has been gaining attention for its potential health benefits. A strict Carnivore approach can be especially helpful for people struggling with serious health problems or autoimmune diseases, where remission is urgently needed.

Today, more and more people are reporting remarkable results. The Carnivore diet has been linked to improvements in:

  • Autoimmune conditions

  • Skin problems

  • Digestive issues

  • Even metabolic conditions like diabetes

Interestingly, research and experiences also show that even an 85% Carnivore approach—where small amounts of fruits and vegetables are included—can bring significant health improvements.

The evidence is growing: the Carnivore diet doesn’t just help people survive, it helps them thrive, supporting both better health and physical goals.

Basic Foods of the Carnivore Diet

  • Red meat: beef, lamb, venison

  • Poultry: chicken, turkey, duck

  • Fish and seafood: salmon, tuna, sardines, shrimp

  • Organ meats: liver, kidneys, heart, spleen (organs are the most nutrient-dense foods available. (Liver is considered nature’s multivitamin).

  • Eggs

  • Animal fats: tallow, lard, butter (or ghee as a lactose-free option)

  • Salt and water

  • (Optional: full-fat dairy such as cheese, cream, yogurt—depending on lactose tolerance, health status, and calorie needs)

Thanks to this profile, the body enters a state of ketosis, where fat becomes the primary source of energy.

 

At the same time, you receive all essential amino acids, as well as vitamins (especially A, D, K2, and B-complex) and minerals (such as iron, zinc, copper, and selenium). Almost nonexistent in plant world.

Animal Based

An Introduction to the Animal-Based Diet

The Animal-Based diet is a nutritional approach that puts animal foods first, while also including select low-toxicity plant foods. It’s designed to give the body everything it needs for energy, recovery, and long-term health—without the downsides of common plant antinutrients.

Core Principles of Animal-Based Nutrition

1. Animal foods are the priority.
They provide the richest source of complete proteins, healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals. These nutrients are highly bioavailable (easy for the body to absorb) and don’t contain the antinutrients that plants often carry.

2. Not all plants are the same.
Plants naturally contain defensive chemicals like lectins, oxalates, saponins, and phytates, which can interfere with digestion, nutrient absorption, or even promote inflammation. On an animal-based diet, only plants with low levels of these compounds are consumed.

3. Focus on quality.
Whenever possible, choose grass-fed meat, pasture-raised eggs, wild-caught fish, raw or wild fruits, and seasonal, local ingredients.

Core Animal Foods

  • Red meat – beef, lamb, pork, and wild game (especially fatty cuts like ribeye, steak, or ground meat)

  • Organ meats – liver, heart, kidneys, spleen (the most nutrient-dense foods on Earth; liver is often called “nature’s multivitamin”)

  • Eggs – complete proteins plus choline and vitamins A, D, and E

  • Fish and seafood – rich in omega-3 fatty acids, iodine, and selenium

  • Animal fats – lard, tallow, butter, ghee

  • Bone broth from bones and tendons – a source of collagen, glycine, and minerals

These foods form the foundation of the diet, supporting strength, regeneration, and energy.

Optional “Safe” Plant Foods

  • Fruit (especially tropical) – bananas, mango, watermelon, papaya, dates, figs
    ➤ Low in antinutrients, good for quick energy and electrolytes

  • Honey (raw, unpasteurized) – a natural source of sugars and enzymes

  • White rice (optional) – a clean starch with minimal plant defense compounds

These foods add variety, flavor, fiber, and energy—especially beneficial for active individuals.

Why Choose an Animal-Based Diet?

Unlike stricter approaches such as the Carnivore diet, the Animal-Based diet is less restrictive while still providing the same powerful benefits. It supports:

  • Sharp mental clarity

  • A strong, healthy body

  • Muscle growth and recovery

  • Low levels of inflammation

It’s a lifestyle suitable for anyone who wants to live with more energy, strength, and long-term health. The flexibility of combining animal foods with carefully chosen plants makes it both sustainable and highly effective.

Traditional Bodybuilding Diet

Bodybuilding Nutrition: Fueling Muscle Growth and Performance

When it comes to building muscle, burning fat, and performing at your best, training is only half the equation—the other half is nutrition. Bodybuilding nutrition is a structured eating system designed to maximize muscle growth, reduce body fat, and improve both performance and recovery.

It’s not just about “eating a lot.” Every meal has a specific purpose—to build, refuel, repair, or protect muscle tissue.

The Core Pillars of Bodybuilding Nutrition

1. Protein – The Building Block of Muscle
Protein is the foundation of bodybuilding nutrition. It provides the amino acids needed to repair and grow muscle fibers after intense training.

  • Typical intake: 2–2.5 g per kilogram of body weight daily

  • Best sources: chicken, turkey, lean beef, eggs and egg whites, tuna, salmon, cod, whey or casein protein powders

2. Carbohydrates – The Fuel for Performance
Carbohydrates are the body’s preferred energy source and are especially important around workouts to fuel training and speed recovery.

  • Typical intake: 3–6 g per kilogram of body weight daily (depending on whether you’re bulking or cutting)

  • Best sources: rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, oats, fruit (bananas, berries), and quick-digesting carbs post-workout like Vitargo or maltodextrin

3. Fats – Hormonal Balance and Health
Fats support hormone production, joint health, and overall energy balance. Intake is moderate but essential.

  • Typical intake: 0.8–1.2 g per kilogram of body weight

  • Best sources: egg yolks, salmon, avocado, nuts, peanut butter, olive oil, coconut oil

4. Meal Frequency and Timing
Bodybuilding nutrition relies on consistency and timing to keep muscles fueled and recovering.

  • Typical structure: 4–6 meals per day, spaced every 2–4 hours

  • Key meals: breakfast, pre-workout, post-workout, and before bed

  • Common strategy: fast-digesting protein plus carbs after training (for example, whey protein with a banana)

Who Is It For?

A bodybuilding-style diet is ideal for someone who doesn’t want to overcomplicate nutrition. It works well if you’re mainly focused on calories in versus calories out and want a straightforward, results-driven approach to muscle gain and fat loss.
