Ep 20 - Carnivore Diet | 10 Carnivore Drinks to Melt Fat


Listen Later

The Carnivore Diet focuses on consuming only animal products. It was popularized by Shawn Baker and has gained a lot of attention from the media and people who follow it. The Carnivore Diet consists of eating only meat, eggs, cheese, poultry, and fish. While we know what to eat on a zero-carb diet, what are some approved drinks to boost fat loss and energy?

Tea is great but it contains tannins

Tea is a great beverage to have on the Carnivore Diet because it has the same benefits as coffee, but without negative side effects like caffeine. The only drawback is that tea contains tannins, which can cause constipation and reduce your body’s ability to absorb nutrients from other foods. To avoid this problem, drink herbal teas instead of black tea like English Breakfast or Earl Grey. There are many types of herbal teas available on Amazon and at most grocery stores, so find one with a flavour that you enjoy!

Benefits of Coffee

Coffee is a great drink to consume on an animal-based diet.

Caffeine has several benefits, including improving mental performance and helping to lift your mood. You might also notice that it helps you feel more awake and alert, enabling you to stay focused on the task at hand for long hours. If you're interested in trying coffee as an alternative to soda or other sugary drinks, we recommend drinking it with some heavy cream.—this can make the taste much smoother for those who aren't used to strong flavours like black coffee.

What is raw milk?

Raw milk is milk that has not been pasteurized. Pasteurization is a process to kill bacteria and make milk safer to drink, but it can leave some nutrients behind. Raw milk contains probiotics, which are beneficial for your immune system. The FDA has recently relaxed its policy on raw milk sales in states like California where people are able to buy unprocessed milk from local farmers directly from the farm through a vending machine or stand on site. This makes it easier for those who want to consume raw milk because now they don't have to go through a middleman—you can simply visit the farm directly!

Drink spirits on Carnivore

On Carnivore, you should use alcohol sparingly. It can lead to dehydration (which is dangerous on the diet) and is high in sugar. Avoid sweet drinks like soda pop or fruit juices; these are also very high in carbohydrates, which will make it harder for your body to burn fat.

If you do decide to drink alcohol while on Carnivore, stick with vodka & soda with no lime juice (this at least lowers the carb count). You may also want to consider low-carb beer if we’re talking about a night out with friends.

The benefit of electrolytes when starting Carnivore

The main benefit of electrolytes is they help with hydration and loss of minerals, but they also work as a natural diuretic and have many other benefits. Sea salt, for example, contains potassium and magnesium—two minerals that help with muscle contraction and relaxation. The recommended daily dose for these two minerals is 2-4g per day each; sea salt has about 2-3g per teaspoon!

I believe that starting the Carnivore Diet with a drink, such as coffee or tea, is a great way to get started on this lifestyle. Remember that you don’t need to follow the rules of someone else's diet; everyone has different needs and preferences when it comes to eating. If you prefer coffee or tea over water, then go for it! Make sure your drink contains no sugar though because this will cause insulin spikes which could disrupt ketosis if done regularly enough.
