Top 10 Tips for Success on the Carnivore Diet: Advice from Nonna
Share
Ah, my dear! So, you’re starting the carnivore diet? Bene, bene! Sit down with a nice cup of bone broth and let Nonna guide you through this journey. You know, this diet may sound a bit different, but it has brought so many people health and happiness. Let’s make sure you do it right, so you feel strong and well!
- Eat Only When You’re Hungry
Listen to your body, my sweet one. It knows what it needs. Don’t eat just because the clock says it’s time. When your tummy rumbles and says, “Mangia!” then you eat. Simple, no?
- Eat Until Comfortably Full
Now, don’t be shy about eating enough, but also don’t feel like you have to stuff yourself like it’s a holiday feast! Just eat until you feel satisfied. You should feel content, like after a nice Sunday dinner, but not so stuffed you need a nap!
- Keep Up on Your Electrolytes
Ah, electrolytes! Think of them as the salt of life! Keep up with your sodium, potassium, and magnesium levels. A little sprinkle of salt can go a long way. A broth made from bones is perfect for this! Your body will thank you; I promise.
- Don’t Be Freaked Out by the “Disappearing Poop”
I know, I know… this one sounds funny! But on the carnivore diet, you may notice less waste. Your body is using almost everything you eat, so there’s less to send out! Don’t worry about it – this is a sign your body is doing its job efficiently, just like a Nonna in the kitchen!
- Use Dr. Berry's BBBE: Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs
Now, this is music to my ears! Focus on the basics: Beef, Butter, Bacon, and Eggs. You can’t go wrong with these! They are delicious, nutritious, and make you feel full and satisfied. Dr. Berry knows what he's talking about, and Nonna approves!
- Eat Only During the Daylight Hours
Eat when the sun is up and let your body rest when it is down. Just like in the old country, when the sun goes to sleep, so should your stomach. Your digestion will thank you, and you’ll sleep like a bambino.
- Supplement with Lugol's for Thyroid Benefits
Ah, Lugol’s iodine – a good friend to your thyroid! Just a little bit will keep your thyroid humming like a well-tuned opera singer. It’s like giving your body a warm hug every day.
- Take Your Daily Minerals – Nonna Recommends Keto Chow Drops
Minerals are so important! Think of them as the secret ingredient in Nonna’s famous sauce. A few drops of Keto Chow minerals every day will keep you strong and healthy. Trust me; it’s like adding love to every meal.
- Stay Hydrated, My Dear
Always drink your water! Staying hydrated is like watering a beautiful garden – you need it to grow and flourish. A little water with a pinch of salt keeps your body happy and your skin glowing.
- Get Comfortable with High LDL-C Cholesterol but Watch Those Triglycerides!
Now, listen carefully, my love. High LDL-C cholesterol is not the monster everyone thinks it is, especially on the carnivore diet. But those triglycerides? They are like the relatives you don’t invite to Sunday dinner – not good! Keep them low, and you’ll do just fine. Dr. Philip Ovadia, a wise cardiac surgeon, says the same thing, so you’re in good hands!
So, there you have it, my dear – Nonna’s top 10 tips for success on the carnivore diet! Remember, this is about nourishing your body and feeling your best. Take these tips to heart, enjoy every bite, and know that Nonna is cheering for you every step of the way. Buona fortuna, and buon appetito!
