The autoimmune carnivore diet (AIC): grass-fed beef, organs, bone broth, and salt +/- carbohydrate source depending on personal preference.

I'm very interested to see how most autoimmune conditions respond to this simplified but nutritionally complete approach.
How many are diagnosed every day with autoimmune conditions and told there is no cure then quickly sentenced to a lifetime of immunosuppressive medications?

How many millions could be helped with an approach like AIC?
We've already seen thousands benefit from such an approach and must let not badly done and incorrectly interpreted epidemiology prevent us from considering the power of such a nose to tail animal-based diet.
#AIC There, I made a hashtag for it! Boom.

You're not fat because you eat too much, you're fat because you eat the wrong foods...

Yes, eating too much of the wrong foods (ultra-processed foods) is doubly bad...

But it's the wrong foods that are CAUSING you to overeat, and therein lies the problem for many people.

Calorie counting/restriction may work in the short term but it almost always FAILS long term. (PMID 28657838)

Clearly, "eat less, move more" is horrible weight loss advice...

What do the randomized controlled trials with seed oils in humans REALLY show when we look at them in detail?

Let’s briefly look at ALL eleven of them and see where this leaves us…

Thread ⬇️ Image
𝐑𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐎𝐢𝐥 𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥 (𝐑𝐂𝐎𝐓) (𝐏𝐌𝐈𝐃:𝟏𝟒𝟐𝟖𝟖𝟏𝟎𝟓): 1965 - 2y follow up. 80 patients with ischaemic heart disease. 80g olive oil vs 80g corn oil per day vs control (diet as normal) .

Result: At two years, the proportion of patients remaining free of major cardiac events is greater for the control group (75%) than for the two oil groups (olive oil 57%, corn oil 52%).

Potential flaws: only the experimental group was instructed to avoid trans fats (TF), while the controlled group was believed to consume trans fat since it was given no advice on dietary fat. In spite of this, the group eating saturated fat had better cardiac outcomes than the experimental group.

TLDR: 𝐒𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐢𝐥𝐬 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐒𝐄 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐜 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 despite control group likely consuming more TF.
𝐎𝐬𝐥𝐨 𝐃𝐢𝐞𝐭 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐒𝐭𝐮𝐝𝐲 (𝐎𝐃𝐇𝐒) (𝐏𝐌𝐈𝐃: 𝟓𝟐𝟐𝟖𝟖𝟐𝟎): 1958-1963 - 5y follow up. 412 participants, control group vs 76% of its calories from soybean oil in the experimental group.

Result: The experimental diet group had a significant reduction in serum cholesterol, which was associated with a reduced CHD relapse rate.

Potential flaws: The control group consumed 9.6% of their calories from trans fat. Experimental group encouraged to eat more nuts, fruits, and vegetables and to restrict their intake of refined grains and sugar.

TLDR: 𝐏𝐨𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐚𝐥. Control group consumed FAR more TF than the experimental group and the experimental group received significantly more dietary counseling.

Spinach
Oats
Almond butter
Seed oils

These “health” foods contain compounds that have been shown to worsen joint pain and arthritis…

See the research below⤵️
Oxalates - deplete sulfate levels in the body. Lower levels of sulfate can lead to weaker cartilaginous tissues, ligaments, tendons and bones. Image
Phytic acid - Phytate is the primary storage form of both phosphate and inositol in plant seeds. It forms complexes with dietary minerals, especially iron and zinc, and causes mineral-related deficiency in humans. It also negatively impacts protein and lipid utilisation. Image

I have a lot of respect for vegans and vegetarians.

Making intentional choices about your diet and removing all processed foods are the first steps to radical health!

And don't forget that MANY essential nutrients for humans are only found in red meat..

[Threads] Image
Vitamin A, B12, K2
Creatine
Taurine
Carnitine
Carnosine
Anserine
4-hydroxyproline

These nutrients have been shown to prevent cognitive decline, muscle loss and fight against chronic diseases.

These are all major factors that reduce quality of life and shorten life span.
Dietary creatine, taurine, carnosine, anserine and 4-hydroxyproline are beneficial for preventing chronic diseases in humans. Image

This is why @kneesovertoesguy and his family choose to eat an animal-based diet of mostly meat, fruit, honey, raw dairy, and organs…

3 quicks steps on how to start an animal-based diet below ⤵️
Meat and organs should be at the center of diet.

How much meat?

1 pound per 100 pounds of goal body weight. So if you you are 150 pounds, you should eat 1.5 pounds of meat per day.

Which organs? Start with liver. The most nutrient dense food on the planet.
0.5 ounce per day is perfect.
FRUIT & HONEY
Add the least toxic forms of carbohydrates, fruit and honey.

Fruits are colorful and sweet. These are the parts of the plant that want to be eaten.

Honey, has been shown to have many metabolic and hormonal benefits. It is highly prized by hunter gathers across the world.

Carbohydrate intake is based on activity level. The more active you are, the more carbohydrates you will need.

Start at 100-150g per day and adjust from there…
