A Carnivore diet can be just as helpful for gaining weight as it is for losing.
Hey, friends! Ever heard of someone using the carnivore diet for weight gain? It’s not something we talk about every day, but Andrea Joy’s story is truly one-of-a-kind. In this week’s video, she shares how she overcame years of autoimmune struggles, severe weight loss, and crazy sugar cravings—all by embracing fatty meat!
Andrea had tried everything—vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, keto—but nothing truly healed her body. After losing too much weight due to illness, she was desperate to rebuild her strength. Within just three weeks of going full carnivore, her period returned, she started gaining muscle, and her energy skyrocketed!
We also dive into the power of mindful eating, the importance of sleep, and how cutting out plants helped Andrea feel better than ever. Plus, she shares her best tips for breaking free from sugar addiction (spoiler: it involves bacon and self-care).
Oh, and if you’ve ever been told you have too much stomach acid, you need to hear our chat about digestion! Andrea walks us through an easy test to check your levels and explains why most people actually have low stomach acid—not too much.
This conversation is packed with incredible insights, encouragement, and real-life experience. Whether you’re trying to gain weight, lose weight, or just feel amazing, Andrea’s journey proves that carnivore helps your body find its optimal state.
So grab a ribeye, settle in, and hit play on this one—you’re gonna love it!
