the frustrating thing is when you then try to find the foods for this diet they are not there, the meat is all glued together junk, laced with nitrites, the animals producing the meat, milk and eggs all fed on the very same corn, which you can taste in everything, the livers smell like corn, the steaks smell like corn when you stew them. it's almost like they are trying to force everyone to eat this seed based diet.

The food currently available is junk compared to what our ancestors ate, and actually evolved to eat. We used to hunt (really) big game. Just look up aurochs to get an approximate idea of what the human diet actually mostly consisted of. We were such good hunters we actually hunted all of our food to extinction lol.

In reality, don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. You can get your meat and eggs from a butcher or farmer's market instead of a convenience store. Yes, grass fed beef is the best possible food to eat, but even grain fed pork is a better alternative to industrial corn syrup, soy, wheat and, god forbid, ultraprocessed nutrition bars.

Iirc, in the Carnivore Code, Paul Saladino even compares the xenoestrogen content in soy and hormone laced beef, and found the soy simply vastly more toxic in that regard.

yeah, i always forget the soy. it's in there too, it's just the corn smell is unmistakable. i hate soy. it wasn't as bad then as it is now though.

i was raised on a very large proportion of soy, chickpeas and oats as a child, and it stunted my development, feminised me. probably the only thing that stopped me being weak and lethargic was the 1-2L of milk that i drank most days.

ironically now also my mother her primary foods are roast chicken and pan fried lamb. she also blew up her gall bladder with cholesterol from peanuts. so i have some clear warnings about things i should be avoiding.

i'm back to the milk now. it's the only thing that isn't triggering a whole constellation of inflammatory, painful and nerve damage symptoms i've been getting real bad for the last year. stopped drinking alcohol, mostly cut out caffeine, no smoking. it is just lucky that it's also one of the cheapest foods i can get since i'm so poor at the moment.
