Mikhaila Peterson, a TEDx Speaker and Oxford Union speaker, has been following a strict carnivorous diet for the past five years. Known as the “Lion Diet,” this regimen consists mainly of beef products like steak and mince, as well as sea salt and plain water. The Lion Diet is similar to the popular Keto diet, which works by putting the body into a state of ketosis in which it breaks down fat for energy instead of carbohydrates.
Peterson initially began the Lion Diet for health reasons, as she had been suffering from a rare form of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis since the age of seven and had been taking various medications to manage the condition. After seeing a dramatic improvement in her arthritis symptoms and being able to reduce her medication use, Peterson fully committed to the diet after the birth of her daughter in 2017. She claims that within months, her symptoms had vanished altogether.
Peterson has now fully committed to the Lion Diet and has even launched her own website, liondiet.com, to share her approach with others seeking to manage fatigue and pain. She has spoken about her unique diet at events such as TEDx and the Oxford Union, sharing her story and the benefits she has experienced since following the carnivorous diet. While the Lion Diet may be a drastic departure from a traditional diet, Peterson believes it has had a significant impact on her health and well-being.
TikToker RorysKitchen, who suffers from food intolerances, documented his month-long journey following the Lion Diet for his over 220,000 followers. He set out to see if the diet could heal his gut, autoimmune issues, and other health conditions, as well as what his body would look like after consuming only meat and how his bowel movements would change. As of his latest video, Rory reported that his skin had started to look better, his sinuses were clearing up, and he had more regular bowel movements.
