Carnivore Isn’t Broken—You Just Need the Female Version 💁♀️🥩
In partnership with
Hey there, Iron-Willed Carnivore! 🧬💪
If you’re a woman eating meat-based and feeling tired, stuck, or just off…you’re not crazy, and carnivore isn’t broken.
But your body runs on a different rhythm—and it needs a plan to match.
This week, we’re dialing in the carnivore tweaks made for female physiology—so you can finally feel energized, focused, and in sync with your cycle.
🩸 What Could Be Throwing You Off?
🔸 Low Fat, High Cortisol
Your body runs on fat. Without enough, stress hormones spike and hormones crash.
🔸 Too Much Fasting
Intermittent fasting isn’t one-size-fits-all. Long fasts can backfire on women, especially mid or late cycle.
🔸 Ignoring the Hormone Curve
Energy, mood, appetite—they shift week to week. Your diet should too.
🔸 Lack of Nutrient Density
Women thrive on organ meats, yolks, and collagen-rich cuts. Skip those and you might miss key hormone builders.
🍳 Female-Friendly Carnivore: What to Do Instead
✅ Eat higher-fat meals before and during your cycle
✅ Keep fasts shorter (12–14 hrs max) if you’re feeling off
✅ Add sea salt the week before your period (goodbye cravings)
✅ Include liver, egg yolks, and bone broth weekly
✅ Track how your energy and hunger shift across your cycle
📌 Reminder: You don’t need to do more. You need to do what works for your body.
