'I'm a carnivore and follow the lion diet – I eat nothing but beef'

African Wilderbeef?

Why only beef? Why not pork, lamb, fish, chicken, turkey, eggs, milk? What about liver and other non meat animal parts?

Edit: Yeah, title is wrong. Also the article is trash.

state of ketosis (starvation) in order to lose weight

Ketosis is NOT a state of starvation.

Its carnivore diet, and I think she just likes cow. She does say she eats the liver. Generally you have to eat organ meat (this is considered a meat still) in order to get the vitamins you would get from plants in carnivore. I'm pretty sure carnivore diet doesn't include milk, and I'm not sure if they eat eggs normally

Yes, milk and eggs are part of it.

But Mikhaila is on a very strict version of it, with only beef. She could very probably eat any ruminant meat with the same results, lamb being high on that list, but there are many species, including I think goat and camel?

However, her deviations from her beef-only version were very costly to her, so it is understandable.

Hmm, that's Jordan Peterson's daughter. Poor girl, getting arthritis that early. And being on SSRIs and ADD meds.

Carnivore diets do seem to work, unfortunately, eating only meat constantly gets old.

Having beef shits everyday would get old for sure!

It smells real bad.

And they’re a real strain. Every time I go huge on a steak like ribeye or something, I pay for it. I eat a lot of veggies and a little meat. Seems to work well for me.

You can follow any crazy outlandish diet, even veganism. Provided you don't work for a living.

I’m not convinced. Can I see a current pic sans makeup?

Oh it's true. She's been doing it for many years and it saved her health.

I axed for a pic, but that’s ok. It seems this would not be for everyone. Like only good under special circumstances.

I've done it, wife too. It's great but a truly boring way to eat. However my personal case's particulars (heavy mercury poisoning) make this diet sub-optimal for me. It seems optimal for most people however.
