It's really an elimination diet. The strict version is fresh beef & water only.

You'd then add other meats, dairy, etc to see how you reacted. Some folks can't even stomach dairy or aged meats initially.

I don't know what specifically you disagreed with me on & I'm not keen for an argument.

You are more than your diet or health condition.
Honestly I'm still extremely pissed off that my diet created my Ulcerative Colitis, I went through 2 colonoscopies, had a 4 day ER visit that required a blood transfusion due to anemia, then had multiple follow up visits with a doctor who told me that I would always have this condition & require Humira injections for the rest of my life & that there is no other way to manage it.

All because the truth of our food and nutrition is being nefariously obfuscated from us & my own personal journey to get to where I'm at today with Lion Diet, required hours and hours of needing to go down a ton of different rabbitholes to land where I'm at today.

Most people with my condition don't even have a clue so if we can make it easier for people to find the answers they need, instead of obfuscating it even more with incorrect terminologies, I believe we can help more people get to the places they need to be with their diets.
I've said that carnivore is like a course in nutrition. About what your body needs & doesn't.

I deliberately avoid plant fibre, partly because of people I've known with UC & partly from Ray Peat . People get so caught up on the fibre lie.

My comment is more about becoming the condition or the diet. About identifying with them.

I understand the desire to communicate precisely. Language is a protocol.

I'm a maxi but it's not part of my identity. It's not who I am but I understand the meaning. Am I a Bitcoiner? - yeah it is part who I am. I guess I'm going to have to reflect on that 🤷
The 'avoid identifying with labels' part is what I'm saying I disagree with. In this instance what I'm trying to say is that the labels are important distinctions that people need to clearly understand. If you're telling people you're doing Carnivore and you're also telling people that you're doing some tomatoes, avocados, berries, etc... along with it, you're gonna fuck some people up getting to the point in their health journey to where they need to be. That's really all I'm trying to say here. Just be clear with your terminologies. Keto is not the same as Carnivore. If you're incorporating plants into your diet, you're not doing Carnivore. If you're doing dairy, you're not on Lion Diet, etc...

No different than telling people you're a Bitcoin Maximalist when you still hold a 10% bag of mETH.
