A few years ago I loosely followed a Ray Peat 'diet' to help with a plethora of issues. However, after dealing with strong nauseating hunger pangs, allergies and a few other things, I decided to try the Carnivore Diet thinking it would help. It has improved it about 50%, but I don't feel that well anymore, I feel weak, tired, thin etc. and would like to return back to a carb-based diet.
Some may think I'm a fool for turning away from Peat in the first place, but I have learned a lot on my journey. I did the Carnivore diet for about 5-6 months. I now appreciate the importance of organ meats, and eating saturated fats. However, I realised how 'addicted' I was, and to a degree still am, on starchy foods. Bread, potato etc. Nearly the whole time on Carnivore I was watching videos wishing to eat them.
1) How do I best reintroduce the carbs after a Carnivore diet?
2) How do I stop these nauseating hunger pangs upon waking?
2) How to reduce my cravings for starchy foods? (The Carnivore community keep calling cravings for carbs 'healing' and that insulin resistance is caused by eating too frequently and spiking insulin).
Thanks folks,
