Beef and eggs, sure. Protein burns slower and keeps you satiated for a longer time …. not sure how butter & salt could help with weight loss besides in very small amounts for taste.
Hoooboy. Fat increases satiety more than any other macronutrient. Butter is healthier fat than nearly any other source that's readily available. Eating enough fat on a low- to zero-carb diet is exceedingly necessary in order to provide fuel for your body. Eating enough fat on a low-carb diet shows your body that it doesn't need fat stores and your body will naturally dump bodyfat. Salt intake must be increased eating this way in order to get enough electrolytes and minerals (though, if you can get food enough beef, butter, and eggs, it would be less necessary.
Hola, just wanted to add some extra context here: Eating the fat doesn’t show the body it doesn’t need fat stores! It absolutely does need them for healthy functioning. Let’s dive a bit deeper. What’s happening is just natural progression of biology for cells creating energy: primary and secondary energy sources. Carbohydrates are the first and most prominent source of energy for the body. The body will always prioritize using carbs as an energy source first and foremost, and will only use lipids or proteins for energy production in the event that there are no carbohydrates to use. This is why fat is important on low carb diets; it provides energy for the body in replacement of carbohydrates, and will in turn also help you lose excess fat as the body searches for energy sources! Additionally, increased protein can help you feel fuller and burn more energy digesting, further contributing to weight loss. 💪
+1 for beef, butter, bacon and eggs some fermented non starchy vegetables are good too
you've got a lot to UN learn. eat primarily fatty meat and you stay full. don't eat anything processed, just whole foods. add in vegetation but don't focus in them. eat like your ancestors did. food cholesterol is a lie. sugar is the real culprit not fat.
I just can’t stand how gross I feel eating lots of meat, salt or butter, and I’m primarily instinctive about diet. But that said I’m not afraid of higher fat meats. I think different people have different dietary preferences and needs. But yes, sugar is bad.
