Human default state is 100% Carnivorous.
We don’t need anything else if we are true to our evolutionary nature.
Eating plants is survival mode that harms us but its better than starving.
I have not enough evidence to even believe this myself, but my mind often wonders in that direction.
Meat and eggs have a significant amount of sodium, no wonder eating a lot of them may be enough. Maybe not for everyone but someone with my meager needs and a bigger food intake (and not losing much through sweating etc.) could do it, I see it believable. I probably can get my sodium from my food on my high-calorie (way over my needs) days…
Don’t we have a carnivore who had a higher need on keto and tried out no added salt on carnivore…? That would be informative.
I need less salt on carnivore than I did on keto. I still salt my food, but I no longer need to supplement with extra. Of course, that could change in the warmer weather.
It’s also been almost four years since I started keto, does time on plan matter?
Finally, I also had to stop Mg supplements, which I had been taking since long before I started keto. I suddenly couldn’t tolerate it any more.
I only had to take magnesium when I did keto without enough meat or else I got cramps (I couldn’t get much magnesium from my food). I never tried keto with much meat AND plants, I don’t know what would happen there but carnivore with enough meat works wonderfully and I don’t supplement anything (not like I needed much extra magnesium before but without any extra, cramps always came and a good magnesium pill always solved the problem right away).
The carnivore woe changes our needs to some extent, we know that. It seems it’s true for magnesium as well as my intake is low as ever.
