back how can anyone afford to eat revise
every single day I'm here to tell you that the carnivore diet doesn't have to
be expensive in this video I'm going to give you a list of foods that our
carnivore and budget-friendly and also some tips to help you save hey guys
welcome back to my channel if you're new here my name is Kait I'm a health coach
and I post videos on a high fat if you can dense way of eating if you like this
video please give it a thumbs up feel free to share and it makes you subscribe
and also make sure to follow me on instagram twitter and facebook where i
share new posts every single day okay so the first thing you need to know is that
the carnivore diet doesn't have to be just steak there are
a wide range of animal foods that you can eat when you're following a
carnivore diet and I think just knowing that makes the diet more approachable so
what foods can you include that will break the bank gravy is a great way to
get the benefits of beef without a hefty price tag and plus it's really versatile
you can make burgers you can mix it in with eggs one thing that I really like
to do is create a carnivore burrito bowl so I add some bacon bits in there and
top it with some sour cream highly recommend now I live in Australia and I
know that most of my followers are in the US so I wanted to give some prices
but honestly you guys use pounds which just makes things really confusing plus
the exchange rate it was just too much mouth for me but to give you a sense in
Australia we can get a kilo of ground beef for around 10 Australian dollars in
the US the average price in 2018 was 3 dollars and 73 cents per pound no matter
what country you live in ground
is an affordable option and this is just such a good staple now before we go any
further I just wanted to say that I did not think people need to eat 100%
grass-fed beef all the time if it's not in your budget go for conventional yes
there are some benefits to eating grass fed slightly higher nutrition a better
omega-3 to omega-6 ratio but in general any meat is better than no meat and I
think the fact that a lot of people think you need to eat grass-fed beef to
do the carnivore diet is pushing people away so just want to put that out there
if you can afford it buy it if you can't do it's in your budget the second food
is gonna be eggs these are fantastic they complement beef not just in terms
of taste but also nutrition wise they are high in vitamins and minerals that
beef is a little bit lower in there a good source of choline vitamin k2
selenium and vitamin E in Australia you can get a dozen eggs for about three
dollars and fifty cents and in the US the average price is a dollar sixty now
the same thing that I said with beef well pasteurized eggs do have the slight
advantage if you can't afford them you can't afford them and any eggs are
better than no eggs and then we have tinned fish so specifically things such
as salmon sardines anchovies mackerel and herring these are cold water oily
fish high in fat high in nutrition and I think this is one food that is
underrated nutrition wise people like to talk about eating a nose-to-tail
carnivore diet eating all these different organ meats and parts of the
animal if you are eating something like sardines you are eating nose to tail you
are literally eating the whole fish bones included like eggs these fish
complement beef they are high in nutrients especially omega threes
vitamin D and iodine a tin of any of these fish is only going to be a dollar
two and one last thing I'm going to note is
always buy these fish in spring water don't buy them in sunflower oil or
canola oil or whatever else if your only option is olive oil that's better than
some of the other oils but the best is going to be spring water and then we
have beef roasts these are usually cheaper than if you're gonna buy the
beef cut up these are a great way to get a lot of meat for a low price really
easy to cook as well you can slow cook them and you'll have
meat for days that you can just reheat and this can actually end up being
cheaper than ground beef when you compare the cost per pound or per kilo a
whole brisket in the US can be as low as four dollars and 73 cents per pound in
Australia you can get one for about $13 per kilo next up is bone broth so you
can use leftover bones that you already have or you can also buy some from your
butcher they're really inexpensive I have a video on my channel on how to
make bone broth it's honestly it's so simple and so worth it
this will take your cardboard I cooking to the next level you can make soups
I love slow cooking meat in my slow cooker with bone broth the roasts like
we talked about previously that can be done just put a little bit of bone broth
on the bottom and one really great thing about making your own bone broth is you
also get callow when you cook and cool the bone broth the tallow separates and
comes to the top you can remove this and use it for cooking and then you don't
have to go out of your way to buy other cooking oils or fats and I wanted to
finish this video off by talking about a couple foods I think you should splurge
on on the carnivore diet the first one is going to be butter it is well worth
it to get a high-quality grass-fed butter if you can get a raw butter even
better this will have a better omega-3 to omega-6 ratio and also be higher in
fat soluble vitamins the second thing I think you should splurge on is organ
meats if you're going to eat them so beef liver chicken liver any other
organs you want to include even if you buy these 100% grass-fed
strains all that they are still very inexpensive and if you're eating organ
meats you're probably eating them because they're nutritious so you might
as well maximize that as much as you can and I actually have one more tip I
wanted to include and that is to buy your meat in bulk if you have a chest
freezer you can buy a quarter a half even a whole cow if you have the space
you can buy high high quality meat for a fraction of the price this is by far the
most cost effective way but I do understand that it's not an option for
everyone there is a pretty big upfront cost but you end up saving money in the
long term thank you guys for watching I hope you enjoyed this video and if
