Why do people start carnivore diets in the first place? 

Most of them do it to lose weight, build muscle, and reduce inflammation.

People who want to lose fat typically start this approach because they've seen other people's carnivore weight loss results and are curious about whether it will work for them too. A lot of people who switch over report that they don't need as much sleep at night because their digestion is better and they feel more rested upon waking up. They also report having more energy throughout the day—even if they're not exercising!

How much protein should I eat on a Carnivore Diet?

According to Coach Bronson Dant, if you are on the carnivore diet and want to get enough protein in your diet, it's important that you eat at least one gram of protein per pound of lean body mass. 

How much fat should I eat on a Carnivore Diet?

In addition to protein, how much dietary fat should you eat? According to Dr Bergman (and many other experts), the recommended daily intake for saturated fat is 1 gram per kilogram (2.2 pounds) of lean body mass which translates into about 1/3 cup per day for someone who weighs 150 lbs or 70 kg and eats no carbs at all (more info here). This can be adjusted according to other factors such as activity level and sleep quality, but it seems like a good starting point for most people right now!

Whether you are looking for a diet that will help you lose weight and feel great, or if you want to improve your health, the carnivore diet is a powerful option.
