Adam Busby Is Not Overweight – So Why A Diet?

The dad of the quints and older sister Blayke, works out a lot and keeps himself in shape. So, he’s not carrying too much weight from what OutDaughtered fans can see on social media. So, it seems a bit surprising that he is considering changing his diet. However, people diet for a variety of reasons. Remember the old adage, “You are what you eat?”

Adam Busby often takes the kids out for a sweet treat in Houston. And, of course, their birthday cakes are legendary. Perhaps he has a sweet tooth and is worried about eating too much sugar. Anyway, he’s dumping his usual diet, as he wants to “reset” his body and get help with his “mental focus.”

Adam Busby Will Restrict His Food Choices

Taking to his Instagram this week, the OutDaughtered star told his fans in a reel, that he intends to start now, and for one month go “carnivore.” The TLC star said that he will only eat “meat, eggs, butter, and will be doing just like water and coffee.” Apparently, he and some friends are trying it for the first time. 

If you haven’t already had a heart attack thinking about all those things the various Heart Foundations warn against, you might be interested in knowing what Adam Busby’s new diet is all about.

What is the Carnivore Diet?

According to WebMD:

The idea is that by cutting all carbs, your body will burn fat for energy and you’ll lose weight. Other claims of this diet are that it can fight inflammation, lower blood sugar in people with diabetes, and improve mental health. 

Notably, though, the OutDaughtered star might run into problems getting all the “vitamins and minerals” he needs. Plus, there are reports of “constipation” or the opposite unwanted side effects of “diarrhea.” Nutritionist Kathleen Zelman told the website that people should not “stay on it very long” due to possible “nutrient deficiencies.”
