What Can I Drink on a Carnivore Diet? Electrolytes to Alcohol and Everything In Between!

Thanks for this great round-up! I grew up in the 50s. The only thing we had in our refrigerator was milk. If we went out for breakfast we could have a glass of milk or orange juice, but it was fresh squeezed and it was a very small glass, like 6 or 8 oz. If we were thirsty we drank water. There were never soft drinks in the house. My parents drank coffee but kids weren't allowed to have it. I never liked it anyway. There are too many choices now and that is part of the problem. Too much marketing telling us we deserve a break today.

If tea or coffee is too bitter add a pinch of salt..it's mind blowing how well this works.. I did this to ween off of sweetener and heavy cream in my coffee.

I'm 65 years old and have spent the last 45 years trying various diets and workout programs to shed weight and improve my fitness. Three months ago, I stumbled upon Dr. DeBerry's YouTube video discussing the Carnivore diet and decided to follow his advice. For the past two months, I've been fully committed to the Carnivore lifestyle, although I do enjoy drinking 12oz to 14oz of red wine on most days of the week. I've completely eliminated fruits, vegetables, fast food, junk food, and processed items from my diet, opting for a Carnivore approach focused on reclaiming my health, not just shedding pounds. I rarely weigh myself, but when I do monthly check-ins, I'm pleased to report a significant loss. Currently, I stand at 5ft 10 inches and weigh 198 lbs, down from 216 lbs two months ago—equivalent to an impressive 18 lbs lost, averaging 9 lbs per month. For me, transitioning away from traditional foods prior to Carnivore felt akin to attempting to quit smoking while relying solely on a nicotine patch. The Carnivore diet has truly transformed my health and well-being."

I seriously appreciate your videos! You get right to the point without me having to follow you on a trip to the grocery store or some errand that I don’t want to do even in real life. Thank you!

My mom had a seizure when she drank a lot of Crystal Light because of the Aspartame. Bad stuff that should be avoided!

Water and salt. I don’t worry about if it’s effecting my blood sugar or gut. I can spend more money on high cuts of meat.

Thanks this was helpful! My sister and I have been carnivore since March 2022…she’s lost over 70 pounds and I’m down about 20! We drink water with added electrolytes, coffee with a little heavy cream and a couple stevia drops, and Pellegrino. I occasionally have a Lacroix to mix things up.

At Buffalo Wild Wings and just ordered the Parmesan garlic wings and 2 hamburger Pattie’s for $2 each, thanks so much for that tip!

You do a wonderful job explaining this stuff. Thank you for your research and hard work!

FABULOUS INFORMATION! I've made notes on the electrolyte products that I had no idea existed. GREAT roundup and you answered any question that I could have had. Thanks!!

Thanks so much for this Laura. The single largest input cost on branded drinks isn't ingredients, packaging or freight, it's the marketing cost to get people to pay up for the stuff. The worst are fake healthy things that scam people and loaded with sugars/sweeteners.

Thank You for that roundup! I have been very much on target to my surprise after watching this! 👍 Lost 33lbs so far have another 60lbs to go!

I just want to thank you for ALL your videos. I have learned so much! From cooking meat, the cuts, how to eat out, what to drink, etc. i have done keto and Somersize and low carb prior. I never drank enough electrolytes and would get dizzy and muscle cramps - plus autoimmune issue that I am working on. This time I need to heal. This is it. I cannot function on processed foods at all. Your informative videos really instills confidence in my journey and cooking abilities. Thank God for you Laura!! Thank you.

I lost 6 stone on keto diet a few years ago. I relied heavily on Diet Coke to help me. Had no impact on weight loss. However better without it. Now on carnivore diet. Feel like I’ve been reborn. Thanks for your videos. Regards

Thank you sooo much!! This was very informative. Right to the point and not a bunch of talking about other stuff! You are GOLDEN!!!😍😍😍

Thank you so much for this video. It’s helped me so much to make more sense of what to drink. I was a Coke Zero addict. I’m 19 days in on carnivore.

Laura, you’re the best! Thanks for doing this kind of thing, it’s just so helpful and encouraging. Thanks for doing it twice!

Thank you, thank you! That’s for doing this great video twice 🥰. You are so knowledgeable and I love your videos. Keep making them please!

Great content Laura I love your content here's a little tip for you and your viewers put lemon juice in your water and add some baking soda to your salt mixture then you'll get the bubbles that you'll have carbonated lemonade... sweetener is optional

I am one of the fortunate few who just likes plain water. I keep an insulated mug on my desk with ice water and that keeps me going. Great video!
