I ate in a "health food" restaurant yesterday with a friend and had tacos, salad, corn chips, beans, rice, guacamole, and salsa. My intestines blew up the next day and I've been struggling with severe IBD flare up and inflammation! Back to "unhealthy" steak for me.

Tomorrow, I am going to attempt to dump my addiction to plants 🌱 and try a #carnivorediet for one month. I want to end the agony of autoimmune disease! Will it work? To start, I bought three steaks, shrimp, ahi tuna, butter, bacon and 18 eggs. This feels weird. No veggies!

I see oat milk in refrigerators everywhere I go. Oat milk is not a "health food." Oat " #milk " has the glycemic load of a Coke, and as much seed oil as fries! And none of the nutrients that are in real milk. #junkfood #seedoils The "nutrients" are just added synthetic

Day 14: Carnivore Diet: I noticed that my rings are falling off my fingers. Ring finger rings now fit on the middle finger. Pinky ring fits on the ring finger. That's how much my joint inflammation has decreased, already, since removing plants from my diet. #arthritis

We ate meat as kids in the 1960s in USA. Beef liver was in school lunches! Hunting and fishing was normal. (So was wild meat.) Kids played outside and walked to school. Nobody had allergies Almost nobody was fat. What happened?

Unfortunately, most vegans will not reproduce. When a woman's body fat is too low, or she is malnourished, she loses her ability to conceive, and miscarriage increases. If a man eats soy, his testosterone and sperm count decrease. Most vegans are childless for a reason.

My experiment with a month of carnivore diet was successful for my health -- but a failure socially. Staying healthy in modern America literally means you have to shun other people, avoid bars/restaurants, turn down social outings. Staying healthy turns you into an outlier.

Young #Vegans should meet vegan elders. Study what #veganism does to long-term devotees. Listen to their health issues. Decide if that's where you want to be in 20 years. If you live that long! Most likely you will be freaked out by the idea of winding up like us.
