Supplements & Seasonings
It’s important to know that not all of your nutrients, vitamins, and minerals can be found entirely within animal-based food products. The following are some great sources to supplement your health, as well as my favorite seasonings!
If you would please visit this video linked here, you will hear what I have to say about these Ketones from Dr. Boz. I am not sponsored by her to promote these. But 8 days after starting them (2 pills/day) 100% of the feeling in my left side that the stroke took away from me returned. The healing power of exogenous ketones are miraculous, and this worked for me when no other drug, OTC or prescription, or any kind of supplement worked.
The carnivore lifestyle wasn’t enough to overcome this one element of my life, and now, I won’t live a day without taking them.
Below is a link to Dr. Boz’s store where you can find these, and more!
Electrolytes! It’s vital you eliminate sugar from your dietary intake. Electrolyte drinks and powders from the likes of Gatorade, Liquid IV, and more are full of harmful sugars, and were designed to get salt into your blood rapidly (hence, the sugar).
Re-Lyte is different. With 810mg of Sodium, 400mg of Potassium, 1280mg of Chloride, 60mg of Calcium, and 50mg of Magnesium, you are able to replenish what your body needs without the harmful effects of sugar. These are powder packets that you combine with ~16 ounces of water. Blend to your taste.
If your body is averse to citric acid, consider the unflavored version to achieve electrolyte replenishment success!
From the first day of my journey to a carnivore lifestyle in 2019, I was introduced to Redmond Real Salt. My mother-in-law challenged me in a blind taste test, and Real Salt won by such a large margin, I couldn’t quantify it. I did however immediately run to the grocery store to purchase my own, and haven’t used any other kind of salt since.
Real Salt is unrefined, ancient sea salt exactly as nature made it. “Nature’s First Sea Salt®.” It contains 60+ naturally-occurring trace minerals, and it’s never processed or chemically treated. The fine sea salt is their most popular grain size and makes a perfect everyday table salt. It’s great for boiling water, seasoning your food, baking, and more.
If you want to reuse your shakers, reduce waste, and keep your meals full of flavor, buy the 26oz refill packages. For travel, you can lay your hands on some awesome pocket-sized shakers. I keep a couple in my truck when I’m traveling away from the RV.
I first tried this at KetoCon in 2023, and the flavor of this all-purpose blend is something I latched onto right away. James the owner made a great point: it’s micro-dosing your organ meats.
Personally I don’t care for a gamey taste. This particular seasoning completely eliminates that on any meats I eat (especially grass finished which has a decidedly different taste than grain fed) and the taste truly is excellent. I use this on almost everything now, especially scrambled eggs!
Need the best source of protein in a powder shake? Equip Food Prime Protein is hands down your best option,and an everyday go-to for me.
Only three ingredients in my favorite (chocolate) powder: Grass Fed Beef Whey Isolate, Cocoa, and Stevia
I make a fantastic dessert pudding from this, which is how I primarily consume it. I also use it in my coffee, and it’s creamy and delicious!
As an RV’er, it’s also very handy for food stores. If I am traveling and need a meal on the road without stopping, this is my go-to.
Not to freak you out, but on the “prepper” side of life, if you want food stores for an unforseen emergency, this powder will feed you for 30 days. Just add water! Lightweight, compact, and easy to carry!
Vitamin D3
As a Floridian, I don’t hide from the sun. I moved to the sun. The sun is a wonderful source of vitamin D3, but sometimes that’s not enough.
I personally have been taking this particular supplement since 2019. Your results will vary, but I can tell you mine. I no longer get a painful sunburn. In addition to not consuming seed oils, which helped cook me as they secreted from my skin, the D3 helps me maintain a high level in my blood. And curiously enough, what looks like a sunburn turns to tan very quickly.
My holistic doctor got me using this brand because she trusted it. And my trust experience is the same, so I’m happy to share with you. I take 1-2 softgels daily.
