I found I needed to supplement magnesium and salt. Leave either or and I get cramps. When I notice cramping in the first hour or three it can be resolved by magnesium or salt (whichever is deficient)
My most fast magnesium supplement for dealing with cramps is magnesium bicarbonate, made by adding 15mL of milk of magnesia to 1L of soda water and waiting about half an hour. Very quick when I made it the day before, takes about half an hour when I didn’t. Solves cramps in seconds.
When I’m away from home I take a magnesium tablet daily to ensure I don’t need a quick solution
I treat the 1L of magnesium bicarbonate as two doses

















If you don’t like eating red meat, having fish or other meat you’re happy with each day will provide a fair bit of protection
But be aware that the studies linking red meat to inflammation and heart disease were badly flawed, for example they counted a McDonald’s burger meal or a pizza as meat despite most of the calories coming from sugar and bread respectively
I had an inflammatory illness (gout)cured by beef only carnivore, which wouldn’t have worked if the beef fat which has been the bulk of my calories was inflammatory. My heart numbers improved after going on meat only, and there has been a controlled study comparing years long carnivore dieters to the general population and found the carnivores’ heart health to be better than the average
