Another carnivore victim here. Started carnivore in late 2019 for no particular reason other than thinking it would be a healthy way of eating.
Added carbs back in early this year after hearing Georgi on Doc Mercola.
Always felt good on carnivore, including sufficient energy and great sleep – but - I developed peripheral neuropathy (in pinky toes) and serious MPB hair loss. I also could never build meaningful muscle, despite lifting weights every other day (duh).
Now I’m up at 190lbs from 175lbs @ 6’1”. Some of it fat, some of it muscle I believe. In my late 50’s.
Feeling 90% energy and overall good. Waking heart rate 75 bpm, coming up to 80 during the day. Waking temp 98.3, coming up to 98.6 midday.
Daily intake is 3500 – 4000 cal, mostly from OJ, low/no fat milk, 2 eggs, 200g sirloin or ground beef, cane sugar, honey, maple syrup, coffee, smoothies from frozen fruit (mostly mango) and 1 or 2 fresh bananas. 1 or 2 cans of smoked oysters per week.
I’m supplementing with 2x 325mg aspirin, 10.000 Iu D3, 200mg k2, Vitamin E (deltagold) 250mg, some glysine and/or collagen, 3x 50mg niacinamide, 2x 150mg Methylene blue, 2x 300mg benfotiamine, 2cl of Toxinless’ magnesium bicarbonate and a drop of lugol’s every other day.
Now here is what I am wondering about – ever since I added carbs back in I have to pee within 30 minutes of consuming any liquid. Probably 8-10 times per day overall.
It's about ½ to ¾ the amount I’d normally pee. At night I only have to go once though.
Is that something that will normalize once my system is adapted/metabolism back up? I just want to make sure I am not creating another problem right now.
The other question would be – any specific pointers to regrow my hair? I know that this is discussed all over the place with mediocre success at best, but I am wondering if there might be something more specific after it’s know what caused my hair loss.
Thanks y’all and happy weekend!
