Sweetening the Deal: Carnivore Diet Sweeteners

While traditional sweeteners are off-limits, a few low-carb, carnivore-approved options can add a touch of sweetness:

  • Non-GMO Glycine: A naturally occurring amino acid that sweetens without spiking blood sugar.

  • Inositol: A low-carb sweetener that integrates seamlessly into desserts.

Best Practices for Carnivore Desserts

  • Prioritize Quality: Use high-quality animal fats, pasture-raised eggs, and grass-fed cream.

  • Stick to the Plan: Avoid non-carnivore foods and sweeteners that don't align with the diet.

  • Enjoy in Moderation: These desserts are meant to complement, not replace, your main meals.
