But..... arnt you on a diet of some sort and cant eat meat:eek:

No, technically I'm whats classified as a Hypercarnivore. The way I eat is called Ketogenic, but I don't have epilepsy, and its good for treating digestion problems and helps control depression. It's nice not being sick every time I eat now.

A hypercarnivore is an animal which has a diet that is more than 70% meat, with the balance consisting of non-animal foods such as fungi, fruits or other plant material.

The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, adequate-protein, low-carbohydrate diet that in medicine is used primarily to treat difficult-to-control (refractory) epilepsy in children. It is unrelated to the diets used for bodybuilding and weight-loss, which often involve much lower levels of ketones. The diet mimics aspects of starvation by forcing the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates. Normally, the carbohydrates contained in food are converted into glucose, which is then transported around the body and is particularly important in fuelling brain function. However, if there is very little carbohydrate in the diet, the liver converts fat into fatty acids and ketone bodies. The ketone bodies pass into the brain and replace glucose as an energy source. An elevated level of ketone bodies in the blood, a state known as ketosis, leads to a reduction in the frequency of epileptic seizures.
