Had an excellent workout at the gym this evening. Powered by one of the best pre-intra workouts I've ever tried. Came home and cooked myself a medium-rare rib-eye steak. As I was eating it, I was overflowed with a mild state of euphoria, of calmness. And I remembered why the Carnivore dieters hold ribeye in such high regard. It makes you feel grounded, masculine, in control of your life. Zen-like It's just pure nourishment to build dense muscles. It made me feel powerful. Extreme satiety. And I also remembered @redsun saying how iron and some B vitamins in beef are dopamine cofactors. And by meticulously chewing it, you also have a nice lower jaw workout that is so much lacking with today's soft foods.
I also did ensure getting some sugar to offset the protein. Had some ripe mango before the steak and a few tsp's of honey after.
I also haven't been masturbating for more than a week, so that might contribute to the heightened sensations I experienced.
All this being said, I consider fatty beef to be an ideal food for men. There is something to be said about having generous protein and fats intake as a man in particular, in addition to adequate carbs. Men seem more geared towards a relatively high-meat diet. The benefits can not be over-stated. It gives you that masculine energy and also it's ideal for body composition. We know that Ray preaches higher protein intake than the mainstream does, but even his recommendations seem low to me, especially if you're a physically active male. You want the frail physique of Peat, then eat 100-120g of protein. You want to be athletic and powerful. Then bump up that protein intake a bit more, 150-200g.
To mitigate the Iron overload from beef, there's the option of drinking coffee with it to chelate the Iron. The high amounts of methionine, cysteine can also be mitigated with plenty of Glycine / Gelatin / bone broth.
