The Bulletproof Diet is all about healthy fats, high-quality protein from animals, wild fish, and pastured eggs, and plenty of polyphenol-rich vegetables. But meat at every meal isn’t mandatory.
In fact, Bulletproof Protein Fasting is a tenant of the Bulletproof Diet that can help reduce inflammation and kick start fat loss. It’s simple: one day every week, limit your protein intake to about 15-25 grams of protein. Fill the rest of your plate with fresh and lightly cooked veggies and drizzle with Brain Octane Oil or grass-fed ghee.
The below Veggie Buddha Bowl from our friend Jordan Pie is a great example of a meal you’ll make on a protein fasting day or when you don’t have any pastured meat or wild fish on hand. Enjoy!
