I have not seen anybody talking about what’s going on in Canada right now. This man was pulled over and told by police that he had to come with them because a psychiatrist labeled him “certifiable.” No paperwork, no rule of law, just a doctor saying that if he didn’t come with him right then and there that he would be arrested. The fact that a government could do this is terrifying.

Salt is not an essential part of carnivore. I'm aware this is the most controversial sentence I've written in some time, and I'm aware certain men will read it and feel something rise in their chest they will misinterpret as a deficiency. It isn't. They just need to get a grip. Here's the actual situation. Salt is necessary when you eat carbs. Carbs hold water. The body needs sodium to manage the fluid load and the electrolyte gradient that comes with it. Salt is necessary when you eat vegetables. Plants are loaded with potassium. Sodium balances the ratio. Without it, you cramp. Salt gets in the way on carnivore. Carnivore is a low-fluid state. You're eating dense, water-light food. You're not chasing electrolyte swings from carb refeeds or vegetable potassium loads. The body is running tight and clean. Pile salt on top of that and you force it to retain water it doesn't need, disrupt a sodium-potassium balance that was already settled, and make the kidneys work harder than they ought to. Yes, you will crave salt while you eat salt. The craving tells you how the body is responding to the thing you're currently giving it. Cocaine users crave cocaine. Nobody considers this a medical case for cocaine. Drop it for two weeks. - No more 3am wake-ups - No more irregular heartbeats after dinner - No more low-grade anxiety from nowhere - No more cramps after training - No more puffy face in the morning The body just runs. You'll be surprised how much better it performs without the thing you were told it couldn't live without.
