Deconstructing The Carnivore Diet Superpowers

Many of us on this forum have done the Carnivore Diet. There are amazing libido benefits that people experience on the diet. Granted, sometimes it's not long-term as it was in my case, but I was thinking on how we can extract and get the same benefits on a Peat-inspired diet.
I got some of my hardest erections ever on Carnivore.
I’ve tried literally every diet (not joking) and eating only fatty beef, salt, and water is probably the worst thing you can do for semen retention BECAUSE IT MAKES YOU SO DAMN VIRILE AND HORNY. It’s like being on adderall, viagra, and anabolic steroids at once. Check out zerocarb reddit or google “carnivore diet” best thing I ever did
So what's exactly the secret here and how we can get the same benefits without the negatives?
Is it the high-protein intake? The high animal (saturated) fat intake? The high nutrient density? The Creatine, Carnitine? The high cholesterol?

I think it’s all of the above.

As is often the case, the link could have been totally casual and experience anecdotal. Sorry but this isn't worth a thread. I’ve had really good sex lately right after being pissed off full of adrenalin and cortisol. So maybe there’s your answer right there. Unless the connection was also casual and the experience anecdotal. People also get very horny on high sugar diets. And go flaccid on low carb.

@Auslander There are countless anecdotes on meatheals dot com, FB groups.
Men generally see a dramatic increase in libido when going Carnivore, that is the norm. Of course, there are opposite cases, too, but I bet that's a low percentage.

Btw don’t people taking anabolic steroids have their balls invariably shrink to the size of dried raisins? Perhaps not the best analogy for horniness.
Redsun:
Highly dependent on what you were eating beforehand but fatty red meat as the sole food can work for quite a while and give high libido because it has most things needed for libido though the B vitamins can be lacking if its just muscle meat. It wouldnt be an issue right away and for some seemingly never.
Its high in iron, zinc, B6 which can dramatically lower prolactin and that alone can raise sex drive. Usually the lower the prolactin the higher the sex drive (higher dopamine of course).
It also has all the amino acids needed for sexual function in liberal quantities. Arginine, histidine, tyrosine/phenylalanine, for example... Non-meat foods like milk and eggs lack arginine for nitric oxide, a basic thing needed you will easily have a low intake of if you don't eat meat.
Also the B3, B6, zinc, iron content helps making steroid hormones which are absolutely essential. The other B vitamins play a role as well but meat has the major ones for that.
A carnivore diet that incorporated organs would be even more sufficient in all the nutrients I just mentioned. You would get massive amounts of cholesterol and choline adding in organs which are pro-sexual nutrients while just steaks dont have as much cholesterol and choline in comparison.

It's an impressive physique! but I doubt he is being 100%honest here.
Does anyone remember when he mysteriously dropped like 30 lbs of muscle? He looks kind of sick/emaciated at the timestamp in this video:

I don't know what is going on with the rapid body composition changes but it doesn't seem natty
A lot of influencers don’t consider regular TRT to be “steroids” things like tren or whatever. So they’ll say they are steroid free despite having supraphysiological TRT. He probably includes HGH and an aromatase inhibitor as not steroids.

So why don’t people who are older and closer to death want to breed more..?
Try it, take some stress blocking substance that has profound effects. Your libido is gonna drop and you will feel euphoric, childish. When my stress hormones are up I always have this lust to have sex with girls and go partying to have some occasional sex.

I’m not talking about taking drugs. I meant in the natural setting. So maybe we are talking about different things

Yeah, maybe we talk about different things.
