'I switched to one food and lost all my wrinkles and 20lbs in 30 days'

A woman says all of her wrinkles disappeared in 30 days and she lost 20lbs after she stopped eating everything except one thing. Janis Luize Rocha Leites, 30, says the new diet cleared up her skin and helped her fall pregnant.

Janis Luzie says before the change she wasn't feeling her "best self" and was struggling with "small red dots" on her skin, a lack of energy and her hair was falling out. Janis Luize found out about the carnivore diet - a zero-carb diet which consists solely of animal products - through a friend who had done it and decided to give it a go.

She did a 30 day cleanse - only eating meat, salt and water - and says she lost 20lbs, her skin cleared up and her periods regulated. She even believes the diet helped her fall pregnant in January this year. Janis Luize is still on the diet but has incorporated fruits and some carbohydrates while expecting - and plans to introduce her child to the carnivore diet.

Janis Luize, a make-up artist, said: "My skin cleared up. I used to have what looked like blemishes - small red dots. My face would swell up. My wrinkles went away. It felt like I had got Botox done. This diet got me pregnant. It feels like you are biohacking your body."

Janis Luize had never struggled with her weight but found herself feeling unhealthy on a vegetarian diet. She said: "I wasn't feeling my best self. When I turned 30 I wasn't happy with my body or my skin. I had no energy."

When she met up with a friend she hadn't seen in six months she noticed his hair and skin had changed and discovered he was doing the carnivore diet. Intrigued she gave it a go - as well as giving up drinking. Within 30 days she lost 20lbs.

Janis Luize said: "I had a lot brain fog before. Now I wake up without it everyday. My double chin went away. I got a lean tummy. After the carnivore diet my period stabilised."

Janis Luize has been with her partner, Luis Pantolfi, 30, an IT masters student, for three years and they hadn't been trying for a baby but were open to the idea. She believes falling pregnant was partly down to the diet.

She said: "I can't say it was 100% from the diet but I had said 'I'm getting more fertile' to my boyfriend."

Now 23 weeks along she is still keeping up with the diet but has introduced fruits and occasionally some carbohydrates to make sure she gains weight. Janis Luize eats 300g of meat per day - she generally sticks to red meat but will change up the cuts to chicken and pork.

For breakfast, she has scrambled eggs and meat and sometime bone broth, and then grilled meat for a late lunch. She said: "I always felt something was wrong with vegetables. Even though they were organic I'd always feel bloated.

"This diet helps you with your cravings - I was a big sweet tooth - but not anymore. I feel like a total new person."

When her baby arrives in November, Janis Luize plans to introduce them to the carnivore diet - introducing bone broths when they go onto solid foods. She said: "The broth has a lot of fat. I've seen people talking about how it means they have no mood swings and sleep all the time."
