animal based diet meal plan

These foods below are ones that you want to avoid at all times or at least as much as possible. I personally believe in the 80/20 rule, so I’m not as extreme as Paul Saladino. I love my chocolate and I love to eat out every once in a while where they’re probably cooking with seed oils. And that’s okay! I believe if you’re eating clean 80% of the time then that’s amazing.

If you want to take Paul’s recommendations and completely cut these out of your diet then that’s awesome. I just know most us us may have a hard time following these guidelines 100% of the time, especially in these modern times.

Olive oil, avocado oil, and coconut oil are better options if you want to cook with an oil; however, you have to be careful where you’re buying from. Many companies cut these oils with canola, or other seed oils. I’ve switched to only cooking with grass fed butter and it makes all my food taste so much better and cook better too!
