I used to be a regular 1 cup a day drinker, usually with milk. But a few months after I started doing the carnivore diet, I just lost the desire. Now I only have it (diluted with a LOT of heavy whipping cream) when I'm going out for coffee with friends.
I think all the news over the past 10 years about how coffee is so good for you is baloney. I've gotten very cynical with these types of studies - they were probably funded by coffee companies.
Like how they heavily promoted how red wine is supposed to be good for you as well, I'll bet that was pushed by the alcohol industry.
But something that is truly beneficial, like a low carb diet, doesn't get any press. That's because it doesn't have an industry backer and there's actually lots of vested interests that WANT us to eat a high carb, processed food diet. So, no good news about low carb.
Check out this post I wrote:
The USDA is ignoring the massive science on the benefits of low-carb diets
I agree with you about the research being bogus. It's always about selling more of everything and studies are a bought and paid for. I already went through a low carb carnivore period for a while. It helped me a lot back then. I was fat and it helped me rebalance and lose a lot of weight. Now I don't eat meat. I believe food is a journey. As we grow, we need to consume different things to support our new bodies.

Interesting. What has made you decide to not eat meat?

It's a low vibrational food. As I am going through a spiritual awakening, I have realized that eating dead animals is not best for me. Especially since I cherish all life. I could never hunt. To me, food that is closer to the sun like fruits and vegetables, with the least amount of processing is best for me. It's higher vibrational. I think in terms of energy and vibration over the latest flawed human science stories. But carnivore was great for me back when that is what I was eating. I have eaten raw, bone broth fasts, vegan, water fasts, dry fasts. I have tried it all. Like I said, food is a journey. I don't think there is a right or wrong. 🤷♂️
