2.	Trust your hunger and eat to satiety.
3.	Fat is fuel, embrace it.

15.	Simplicity reduces decision fatigue. You’ll free up mental space, time, and money from constant meal planning.
16.	Fasting or eating one meal a day (OMAD) often happens naturally on carnivore, but it’s not a rule. Let your hunger guide you.
17.	Eating animal-based meals during daylight supports your circadian rhythm, helping regulate sleep, hormones, and energy.
18.	Eating three meals a day isn’t natural, it was shaped by industrial work schedules, not biology. Eat when you're truly hungry, not by the clock.
19.	If you're eating once or twice a day, make sure you’re eating enough, undereating can stall healing, fat adaptation, and energy.
20.	Ruminant meat is the gold standard (beef, lamb, goat).
21.	Prioritise Fatty cuts.
22.	Eggs are carnivore-friendly for most.
23.	Waking up in the middle of the night? Try a spoonful of butter or tallow (before bed), your body may need more fuel to stay asleep.
24.	Pork and poultry are acceptable but lower in nutrients.
25.	Dairy is optional, but some don’t tolerate it well.
26.	Dairy should be a condiment not the main dish.
27.	Clean water matters, consider filtering or purifying your water to reduce toxins like chlorine, fluoride, and microplastics that can interfere with healing.
28.	Ditch the non-stick, stainless steel or cast iron cookware is a safer, toxin-free choice that pairs perfectly with high-heat meat cooking.
