Oat milk is a good choice for something that's dairy-free entirely. I like to use things with goat's milk in them (provided it doesn't have the above ingredients I leave out), though that's a different type of dairy (A2 casein, instead of A1 and/or A2 casein cow's milk). As for caffeine, synthetic forms I tend to stay away from (coffee, chocolate, green tea, etc. is fine). Carnivore is a fantastic way to heal up your body, though some wouldn't recommend it long term, except for autism, where Dr. Eric Berg recommends carnivore with sprouts and microgreens for those, like myself, who are autistic.
I've been cycling high protein low carb this month and I always enjoy it. I know it's not sustainable long term, but it's such a good way to decrease belly fat and drop unnecessary water weight and it keep me satiated longer, so no crashing between meals
As far as I'm aware, ditching the gluten, cow's milk, refined sugars and soy are certainly a good way to be sustainable. That gets rid of around 90% or so of the food in the US, but I've been doing alright as a result of it.
Same! I don't do deserts, fried or processed foods. If I want something crispy I have an air fryer and if I really want protein to be made low and slow, I have a Traeger smoker on my deck. It's winter here in the US right now, I can't run my smoker in the cold weather to often, I have to really baby sit adding more pellets to keep the temp if I do. I love using my smoker!
I personally love using an air fryer myself, so I get it for something that needs to be crisp. I never smoked any of my meat, as I tend to use ButcherBox meats, and just air fry it.
I also happened to be American as well, and the winters where I reside are pretty harsh... and apparently, this year's winter will be particularly nasty.
Same here I'm in America and yes this winter will be rough. I think you give off "I'm not a chef, but you probably would be if wanted to kind of good a preparing healthy proteins" I just launched Carnivore Kitchen for people to give tips, post their recipes and learn from each other. I think you'd be right at home over there: !CarnivoreKitchen@lemmy.world Someone already posted a gorgeous chuck roast.
