For decades, we were deceived about nutrition. We were told that fat was the enemy, that seed oils were “heart-healthy,” and that a high-carb, low-fat diet was the key to longevity. Meanwhile, rates of obesity, diabetes, and metabolic disease skyrocketed. The food industry, driven by profit rather than health, pushed processed, nutrient-deficient foods while demonizing the very foods that humans have thrived on for centuries—animal fats, quality proteins, and whole, unprocessed ingredients
It’s About What You Don’t Eat.
The modern diet is packed with inflammatory, processed, and harmful ingredients that sabotage your health, even if you’re eating “healthy” foods alongside them.
A proper diet isn’t just about adding the right foods; it’s about removing the toxins that work against you.
What to Cut Out: The Hidden Toxins in Your Diet
1. Seed Oils (Industrial Vegetable Oils)
Seed oils like canola, soybean, corn, sunflower, and safflower oil are highly processed, oxidize easily, and are loaded with omega-6 fatty acids that promote inflammation. These oils disrupt cellular function and have been linked to obesity, heart disease, and metabolic disorders.
Better alternatives: Grass-fed butter, ghee, tallow, coconut oil.
2. Refined Sugars
Sugar is one of the biggest culprits behind insulin resistance, obesity, and chronic inflammation. It spikes blood sugar, leads to energy crashes, and contributes to metabolic diseases like diabetes. Refined sugars are hidden in processed foods, sauces, dressings, and even so-called “health foods.”
Better alternatives: Natural sweeteners like raw honey (in moderation).
3. Refined Carbohydrates
White bread, pasta, pastries, and cereals offer little to no nutritional value. These highly processed carbs break down quickly into sugar, causing insulin spikes and energy crashes. Over time, they contribute to weight gain, inflammation, and poor metabolic health.
Better alternatives: Low-carb, fiber-rich veggies, nuts, seeds, and whole, unprocessed foods.
4. Processed Foods and Additives
Anything that comes in a box, bag, or can is likely filled with preservatives, artificial flavors, emulsifiers, and other harmful additives. These chemicals disrupt gut health and contribute to long-term inflammation.
Better alternatives: Whole, unprocessed foods that are as close to their natural state as possible.
5. Artificial Sweeteners and Flavor Enhancers
Artificial ingredients can cause gut imbalances, disrupt hormones, and even affect brain function. While they may seem like a good alternative to sugar, they often do more harm than good.
Better alternatives: If you need sweetness, opt for raw honey.
6.Alcohol
Nothing damages your body & destroys your results like alcohol. Even in small quantities.

What to Eat:
The ideal diet for strength, longevity, and metabolic health lies in a balance between carnivore and ketogenic principles. Here’s how to structure it:
1. High-Quality Animal Proteins
Protein is the foundation of a strong, lean body. Focus on grass-fed, pasture-raised meats, wild-caught fish, and organ meats for optimal nutrient density.
Best choices:
• Grass-fed beef, lamb.
• Pasture-raised eggs
• Free range Chicken
2. Healthy Fats for Hormonal Balance
Your body thrives on healthy fats—not the inflammatory, processed kind. These fats fuel your brain, support hormone production, and keep you satiated.
Best choices:
• Grass-fed butter, ghee, and tallow
• Avocados
• Extra virgin olive oil (cold use only)
• Fatty cuts of meat
• Egg yolks
3. Low-Carb, Nutrient-Dense Vegetables
While carnivore diets eliminate plants altogether, a mix of low-carb vegetables provides fiber, vitamins, and minerals without the antinutrients found in grains and legumes.
Best choices:
• Leafy greens
• Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts)
• Zucchini, asparagus, cucumbers
4. Hydration and Electrolytes
Hydration is more than just drinking water—it’s about maintaining the balance of fluids and electrolytes that keep your body functioning optimally. Without the right balance, you can experience fatigue, muscle cramps, brain fog, and poor performance
The Power of Removing and Rebuilding
Nutrition is about eliminating harmful foods as much as it is about fueling your body with the right ones. By cutting out seed oils, refined sugars, processed foods, and artificial ingredients, you create the foundation for better digestion, more energy, and long-term health.
Then, by focusing on nutrient-dense animal proteins, healthy fats, and quality whole foods, you build strength, vitality, and resilience.
It’s time to shift the mindset from “What should I eat?” to “What should I eliminate first?” The cleaner your diet, the better your body will perform.
