How meat can heal autoimmune disease

The most exciting thing about the carnivore diet is that it can help with a variety of diseases, including autoimmune diseases and chronic illnesses. The meat contains nutrients that heal the body, support proper immune function, and promote good health. In fact, many people report that they have experienced an improvement in their overall health once they started eating this way.

The best example of this is chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). Fatigue is one of the most common symptoms associated with CFS sufferers. Dr Shawn Baker suffered from fatigue and pain, which was not going away until he cured it with nutrition.

The cause of autoimmune disease

Autoimmune disease is caused by a misdirected immune system. The immune system is supposed to attack pathogens, but in autoimmune disease, it attacks the body's own cells and tissues. This can result in inflammation, tissue damage, and other symptoms of illness. Any organ or tissue of the body can be affected by the autoimmune disease — including your skin!

Eating only meat can help with fatigue & chronic pain

Fatigue is a complex and multifaceted problem. It's caused by a combination of factors that can include:

⌲ poor sleep quality

⌲ stress and anxiety

⌲ nutrient deficiencies (including iron and vitamin D)

The carnivore diet, which is essentially eating only meat, may help with all three of these issues. For instance, the high protein content can increase energy levels by improving the balance of neurotransmitters in our brains. The lower-carbohydrate content allows us to avoid spikes in blood sugar that can make us feel tired or sluggish after meals. And lastly, the lack of processed foods means there are fewer chemicals interfering with how our bodies work—including artificial sweeteners that some believe contribute to fatigue.

So, if you're having any of these symptoms, maybe consider giving a carnivore diet a try! Carnivores are not just for people who want to lose weight or cure their candida infections. Carnivores are for everyone who wants to feel better and live longer. It might sound crazy at first, but I promise it's not as hard as it seems. Just start slow by eliminating grains from your diet and slowly adding meat until you find yourself getting all the nutrients necessary for optimal health!
