Keto/Carnivore Diet Guide
Fuel your body for optimal fat loss and muscle retention.
Diet Basics
This approach minimizes carbohydrates to encourage your body to use fat for fuel (ketosis), which is highly effective for fat loss while preserving muscle mass.
Focus on high-quality animal products. Drink plenty of water and supplement with electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium) to avoid the 'keto flu'.
Macro Guidelines
Aim for these ratios to maintain ketosis and support your training:
- 70% Fat: Primary energy source.
- 25% Protein: For muscle repair and growth.
- 5% Carbs: From trace amounts in animal products.
Approved Food List
- Beef (steak, ground beef, roasts)
- Eggs
- Butter & Tallow
- Fish (salmon, sardines)
- Chicken (thighs, wings)
- Pork (bacon, ribs)
- Organ meats
- Hard cheeses (in moderation)
Disclaimer: Consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new diet or exercise program, especially a restrictive one like the keto/carnivore diet.
