>I got bad chronic constipation after four years as a strict carnivore.

2 questions:

1) Did your constipation start right after you did strict carnivore? Or was it after 4 years?

2) List all foods that you ate on strict carnivore. (Include salt, water etc. I presume it won't be a long list)

Just all foods including salt and water consumed over a 4 year time period with some unknown offset from present, sure seems like a reasonable amount of effort in response to some random guys HN post.
1) I had constipation on a very high fiber diet before starting carnivore. That was fixed in literally one day. It was the most dramatic change. Then it gradually came back after about 3.5 years.

2) beef, butter, chicken, pork, lamb, eggs, bacon, for > 95%. I do indulge in some processed meats with seasonings. Salt is the only seasoning I add, so I've become a salt snob and get the premium stuff.

After that unspicy diet, full strength kimchi is an experience.

Thanks.

Regarding full strength kimchi - did you make it yourself or did you buy it? If you bought it, what brand?
