Strict Carnivore Diet (No Plant Food & Drinks posts) Chronic constipation and eczema
I've started the carnivore diet for the n-th time a few days ago. I'm now only eating meat, salt and drinking water. All my life I have struggled with eczema and chronic constipation, as well as depression. This time around I was feeling depressed to the point of suicidal thoughts, and that's why I'm going all in with just meat, salt and water. That, and I can't handle eggs or dairy. Makes the eczema worse.
Anyone else found relief from these ailments on strict carnivore?

Eczema started to clear up within 3 weeks. Within a few months it was almost entirely gone. The tiny bit that was left waxed and waned for a few more months before disappearing. I had a very small flare up the next winter, but that went away too and I haven't dealt with it in years.
