I tried the Carnivore Diet for 1 month, here's what I found (pros and cons)

Introduction

The speaker introduces himself and explains that he will be sharing his one-month experience on the carnivore diet.

One Month Experience on the Carnivore Diet

• The carnivore diet is a diet comprised entirely of animal-based products.

• The speaker is not a medical professional, and this is just his personal experience with the carnivore diet.

• After one week, the speaker experienced real bad sugar cravings for the first five days. Energy-wise, he felt normal and could do everything he was doing before happily. He has been intermittent fasting by eating his first meal between 10 and 12 and then having his last meals around six or seven o'clock.

• Eating more than two big meals a day while on this carnivore diet is hard. Keeping calories up can also be difficult.

• After two weeks, the speaker plans to add more food in but feels good so far.

Getting Organ Meats In

The speaker shows how he gets most of his organ meats in.

Raw Lamb Liver

• The best way to get raw lamb liver is to buy it raw.

• If you don't like the taste of raw liver, you can freeze it and cut it into little pieces or take it as if it were like a little multivitamin.

Update at Two Weeks

The speaker provides an update after two weeks on the carnivore diet.

Endurance Test

• Had his first footy training session since starting the diet. It was fine; usually, he'll roll up the training about six o'clock, and he'll have less energy at that time of day. But on an animal-based diet, he's feeling good.

Lifting Heavy

• The speaker has been lifting quite heavy at the gym heavier than what he was doing before. He's noticed really little muscle soreness after the training sessions, which is awesome.

Hectic Cravings

• Getting some hectic cravings now; usually, two weeks are probably the hardest part. They should slowly go away after now wait and see.

Big Order from the Butcher

The speaker shows a big order from the butcher that just arrived.
