Default New Carnivore Way of Eating Club being formed now.

Although my email address is misspelled in todays Rec Insert, page 48, we already have 288 members on our Facebook Carnivore group.

If you have interest in joining our soon to be approved Carnivore Club in The Villages, please send me an email: [email protected]

We will be meeting monthly at a recreation center close to 466A, sort of a midpoint for TV.

We have a Tuesday May 12th at 5:30 PM meeting at Odell Village Recreation Center
2260 Odell Circle, The Villages, FL 3216.

Occasional carnivores but otherwise KETO can they also join? Do we need to join first before we can come to your next weekly meeting?

Everyone is welcome. Carnivore is a subset of Keto. There are keto meetings as well, twice a month. Different club but some come to the carnivore meetings, and I have made a presentation to the keto club. Functionally, ketovore qualifies as carnivore too. There are subsets of carnivore too.

Our meetings have been focused on sharing experiences and answering questions. We also have presentations by members who have some expertise on the matter. Thus, making education a part of the program. So far, our meetings have been at various Rec centers and peoples homes.

There are now 302 members on Facebook. With the focus being on residents within The Villages, it is time to become an official club.

Members have attended a multi-club promoted Dr Boz presentation, traveled to multiple carnivore “meatups,” like those in Tampa, and some will be going on carnivore cruises.

About
Who are we? We are a group of people in or near The Villages who love eating beef, butter, bacon and eggs (and other meats) and believe that eating an animal-based diet is the "proper human diet" for optimum metabolic health, longevity and overall quality of life.

Who are we hoping to meet? More like-minded people who share the same nutritional values, or others who are sincerely interested in exploring this way of eating as a method of improving metabolic health and thriving for years to come.
What will we do at our events? Eventually, the goal is to meet at interesting places around Florida, such as butcher shops, ranches, or other fun and relevant sites to learn from experts in the fields of meat production and health care focused on improving metabolic health from an animal-based diet, as well as share our personal journeys on how we've benefitted from adopting the carnivore way of eating.
