About this episode
The carnivore diet has gained incredible popularity for its healing and fat loss benefits. The carnivore diet focuses exclusively on consuming an animal-based diet, prioritising ruminant meats. What is the Carnivore Feasting and Fasting Method? The Feasting and Fasting method was created by Coach Raymond Nazon, master coach of the Steak and Butter Gang. With this method, there are three stages: 1. Priming - A 2-week period of over-satiating your body with nutrients, consuming 3 meals a day. 2. 2MADs - moving to a 2MAD diet should be quite easy at this stage. 3. Fasting - moving to an OMAD approach or rolling 48s How does this method help with burning belly fat? When you start a carnivore diet, there can be an adaptation phase. Getting used to eating a zero-carb diet should occur over a few weeks or months using the Bulletproof Carnivore Method. After this transition phase, you can enter the feasting and fasting method which allows for intermittent fasting and prolonged fasting to occur. Where the magic happens! In this fasting state, your body will use its own body fat as energy via a process of ketosis. When you are consuming a Standard American Diet, your body runs off glucose most of the time, which is a short-acting form of energy. That's why you feel the blood sugar swings, and energy crashes from carbohydrates. When you stick with an animal-based diet paired with natural fasting, you will notice a lower body fat percentage, flatter stomach and more visible abs. What about mental clarity? Another benefit of the carnivore fasting and feasting method is mental clarity and sharpness. Typically the human brain runs off ketones and fat as its prime energy fuel. When you are fasting you will notice more mental clarity, easier decision making and less need for distractions. Some carnivore experts have called it a zen experience. When the brain is hyper-focused and clear. This episode is brought to you by 5minutebody.com ★ Join the 5MB Monthly Carnivore Challenges
