You start carnivore. Week 2 hits. Suddenly: Joint pain you didn't have before Rashes appearing Digestion is chaos Energy is terrible Sleep is disrupted You panic. "Carnivore is making me sick!" Actually, carnivore is revealing how sick you already were. Oxalate dumping: You've been eating spinach, almonds, sweet potatoes, and chocolate for years. Oxalates accumulate in tissues because your body can't process them fast enough. Remove plant foods → oxalates start releasing from storage → temporary symptoms as your body expels them. This can take weeks to months depending on how much you accumulated. Fat-stored toxins: You start burning body fat. That fat has been storing pesticides, seed oil metabolites, and environmental toxins for years. Burn the fat → toxins release into bloodstream → temporary increase in symptoms until they're eliminated. Your body is literally detoxing. This is healing, not harm. The alternative: Keep eating plants, keep storing toxins, never feel the temporary discomfort, and just... stay sick permanently with vague symptoms you accept as normal. Or: Push through 2-8 weeks of detox symptoms and come out the other side actually healthy. Your choice: temporary discomfort leading to health, or permanent comfort leading to decline. Most people choose the latter and wonder why they never get better.
