Carnivore Talk

48,835 women. Randomized. About 8 years of follow-up.

The Women's Health Initiative put postmenopausal women on a diet aimed at cutting fat to 20% of calories while adding fruit, vegetables and grains. Heart disease, stroke and total cardiovascular disease were not significantly reduced.

Hazard ratio for heart disease: 0.97. Stroke: 1.02.

Twenty years later, people are still told to trim the fat.

I eat the fat.

🥩 Are we blaming MEAT for what ultra-processed food does?

New research reveals distinct metabolic signatures linked to processed foods—and the findings raise some interesting questions about heart disease, diabetes, and conventional nutrition advice.

White British vegetarians had 33% lower total blood omega-3 than regular meat eaters in a UK Biobank analysis of 216,004 adults. DHA was lower in vegetarians and vegans too.

The meat eaters weren't carnivores, and fish eaters had higher omega-3 levels than the regular meat eaters.

Flaxseed and walnuts provide ALA, but conversion to EPA—and especially DHA—is very limited.

Getting DHA from flax instead of salmon is like getting a load of lumber instead of a finished house. Your body still has to do the building, and very little makes it to completion.

Eat your fish, people!

A randomized trial comparing the Lion Diet, keto, and a waitlist group is recruiting people with ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, or rheumatoid arthritis. About 160 participants planned.

The Lion Diet arm is ruminant meat, salt, and water. Stricter than how I eat. I've been carnivore about 3.5 years, and I keep dairy.

My ulcerative colitis is in histological remission, confirmed by a negative biopsy. As far as I'm concerned, it's cured. That's my experience, not a trial result.

This study hasn't produced results yet. I want to see what it finds. Links in the replies below.

A federal judge just let the McRib lawsuit move forward. The claim is there's no rib meat in it at all. It's pork shoulder, and allegedly heart and tripe, pressed into the shape of a rack of ribs. McDonald's denies the heart and tripe part.

Heart and tripe aren't the problem. That's real food. The problem is the bun, the sugary sauce, and whatever it takes to make shoulder meat look like a rib.

If you want ribs, buy ribs.
