Carnivore Diet Food List

Looking for a carnivore diet food list? You're in luck! This page provides you access to not just one... but FOUR Carnivore Diet Food List PDF's. "Why four?" you may be thinking. Here's your answer.

Did you know there are four different types of carnivore diets?  There are and I’ll provide you information about all of them.  Here they are:

• The Lion Diet, 
• The Strict Carnivore, 
• The Classic Carnivore, and...
• The Keto Carnivore (better known as Ketovore) diet.

Before we go any further let's get this out of the way. None of these carnivore protocols contain any sugar, junk food, or processed food.  Those are strictly off limit... out of bounds... prohibited!

The Lion Diet

This version of the carnivore diet is the most restrictive because the focus is solely on meat and fat from ruminant animals. This includes fatty meat from beef, elk, deer, moose, goats, and sheep.

Salt is also permitted. That’s it. You do not add spices nor seasonings. Your only beverage is water... flat or carbonated. No tea, no coffee.  Yes, it’s very restrictive.

Strict Carnivore

The next version of the carnivore diet, known as the Strict Carnivore, includes just meat but from a wider variety of animals. With this version you eat beef, pork, chicken, turkey, lamb, fish, seafood, organ meats (liver, kidney, heart), eggs, and fats such as lard, tallow, and butter.  Want to know more?

Classic Carnivore

The next carnivore diet on our list is the Classic Carnivore.  This diet is a little more flexible and still revolves around assorted meats, but there is also room for a few dairy products.  This makes the diet a little easier to follow and allows more variety and creativity in the kitchen.

You can enjoy all hard cheeses, soft cheeses, semi-soft cheeses, sour cream, heavy cream and yogurt. You can also have tea and coffee.

This less severe version is more manageable than the first two while also providing great results for most people. This is not a license to eat cheese to excess, however. Remember... a little goes a long way.

Keto Carnivore or Ketovore Diet

Finally, here is the final and most flexible carnivore diet... Keto Carnivore also known as the Ketovore Diet.  This one is much more liberal in its choices.

As the name implies, it’s a mash-up of both the keto and carnivore diets. Of course, the foundation is still all meat and fat, with the addition of dairy. But this version also allows for a few berries, apples, avocados and olives. You can use spices and herbs in moderation as well.

Obviously, this adds a lot more variety but also has more carbs.  This approach may provide a smoother transition to help you get started with a carnivore diet before adapting stricter versions if you choose to do so later.

And, of course, there is a carnivore diet food list for the Keto Carnivore Diet aka Ketovore Diet.

Whatever You Choose to Follow

No matter which of these protocols you decide to follow, you will reap the benefits that come from eating minimal amounts of carbohydrates. The focus is on high fat, moderate protein and zero or nearly zero carbs.

This will keep your blood glucose from spiking and will keep your insulin levels low.  And that means you'll be getting into some serious fat burning.

I have learned that sometimes a regular low carb or keto diet can stop working before you reach your weight loss goals.  In those cases a carnivore diet could very well get you restarted and push you over the finish line.

Besides contributing to weight loss, this restrictive way of eating helps you build muscle. And it is often a great tool to use for people who have food addictions as well. Here’s why.

It turns out that with the elimination of carbs, the desire for junk food and sweets fades away.  That’s because the triggers to stimulate urges and cravings have been reduced. There is no more inner chatter about eating carbs.  That brings peace between your ears and that is so important because it allows you to develop a better relationship with food.

Eating a carnivore diet takes the guesswork out of what you’ll be eating from meal to meal. Some folks find fewer, well defined choices easier to manage and maintain. 

Many carnivores find they end up eating similar foods every day and yet they don’t get bored. There is peace around food when the choices are limited, the food is enjoyable, and there are no “grey areas” to stray into.

Although it is often touted as a high protein diet, it is not.  The carnivore way of eating is high in fats and moderate in protein.   This makes it a ketogenic diet. With a carnivore diet you must get 60% to 80% of your calories from fat.

Can you do this without help?  Of course you can, especially with a little guidance to get you started.  That's why I created The Carnivore Diet Ultimate Beginner’s Guide. And if you decide to give it a go and you need a little extra support, I’m here to help as well!

With my coaching services, we can tailor a custom plan that suits your lifestyle and goals, and provides you with the support and encouragement you need. It’s not just about following a list of foods… it’s about making a sustainable inner change that leads to lasting health and happiness.

Whether you’re looking to trim your waist circumference or manage your blood sugar levels, you can do that and you don’t have to do it alone.

Making the Switch

It can be difficult to make the mental switch from the Standard American Diet aka SAD, to one that is completely meat-based. That’s because we have been taught and conditioned for many years to avoid meat and fat. In fact we have been told that meat and fat are unhealthy. 

However, there is no science to support that.  In fact, scientific evidence shows quite the opposite to be true.  But in the end, the final decision to make the change is yours.  So, do lots of research before you make your decision.

The human body thrives on meat and fat and the essential nutrients they provide. If you’re overweight or obese, or dealing with Type 2 diabetes or having other metabolic issues, chances are extremely high that your diet is not based on meat. 

What about the Food Pyramid from the 1990’s or the more recent “My Plate”?  Do those recommendations guide your eating patterns? If so, it’s obvious it isn't meat that has made you what you are. 

A Carnivore Diet Food List and Guide for the Carnivore Curious

Seems to me if you’ve read this far, you’re curious about what a carnivore diet can do for you. I suggest that the best way to find out is to try it for a few months.

But, beware! If you’re using any medications, you should discuss this with your doctor.

The lack of carbohydrates will affect your blood glucose and your insulin levels in a positive way. This will probably lead to lower blood pressure, less inflammation (arthritis) and better blood glucose management. 

These changes will affect your medication dosages. So be smart. Before you start ANY diet, you should find out how it will affect your medicines.  A visit with your doctor is important and highly recommended.

I have tried the Carnivore Diet on a few occasions and found it very satisfying. But to be honest I haven't gone beyond 2 weeks. However, recently, I committed to 90 days and you can follow my experimental adventures on my YouTube channel here.
