Food alternatives

To align your carnivore diet with diabetes management, try these nutrient-dense substitutions:

For a protein boost, bison steak can be used instead of ribeye steak, offering a leaner option.
To diversify fats, duck fat can replace butter in cooking for richer flavor.
For a different protein source, venison can substitute for lamb chops or beef patties.
To add variety, bone broth can be used as a base for soups instead of just beef bone broth.
For a rich source of collagen, oxtail can be used in stews and slow-cooked meals instead of other cuts.

How to budget on this meal plan

Focus on buying meats like chicken breast, salmon fillets, and beef in bulk, especially when on sale. Eggs and butter can also be purchased in larger quantities for savings. For vegetables like broccoli and Brussels sprouts, buying in season can be more economical. Consider making your own ghee at home for a cost-effective cooking fat.

Extra tips

Any healthy snack ideas?

Meat-based snacks suitable for diabetics following a carnivore diet:

Beef jerky (unsweetened, low sodium)
Pork rinds
Hard-boiled eggs
Canned tuna or salmon
Baked chicken strips
Grilled shrimp
Sliced deli meats (low sodium)

What should I drink on this meal plan?

When following a carnivore diet as a diabetic, staying well-hydrated is essential, with water being the most important beverage. Bone broth serves as a nourishing option, rich in electrolytes and nutrients. For some variety, consider unsweetened herbal teas. It's crucial to steer clear of sugary and carb-containing drinks.

How to get even more nutrients?

A carnivore diet for diabetics focuses on animal products but should still consider lean meats to better manage fat and calorie intake while ensuring adequate protein levels. Include fatty fish like salmon and mackerel to get omega-3 fatty acids, essential for cardiovascular health. Be mindful of the total protein intake, especially to avoid overburdening the kidneys, by controlling portion sizes and choosing lean cuts.
