THOUGHT LEADER DIRECTORY

Isabella “Bella” Ma | Steak & Butter Gal

Bella, widely known as "Steak and Butter Gal," is a prominent health advocate, digital creator, and musician who promotes the benefits of a high-fat carnivore diet. After six years as a vegan, she experienced severe malnutrition and exhaustion, which led her to switch to an animal-based lifestyle to reclaim her health. She has since gained international recognition for documenting her journey of losing 30 pounds and clearing chronic conditions, including cystic acne, eczema, and psoriasis.

Bella’s mission is to make the carnivore way of eating joyful, sustainable, and accessible by focusing on simple, nutrient-dense ingredients. She advocates for a "back-to-basics" approach—prioritizing whole cuts of meat, animal fats, and raw dairy—to help others overcome autoimmune issues and brain fog. Through her cooking and community leadership, she emphasizes that food is a tool for healing and a powerful medium for connecting with others.

Culinary Style & Philosophy:

  • Simplicity: Operates under the philosophy that "simplicity is the ultimate sophistication," focusing on minimal ingredients and big nourishment.
  • Grass-Fed Advocacy: Promotes grass-fed and grass-finished meats for those struggling with lingering inflammation, while maintaining that supermarket meat remains a viable starting point for healing.

Only 14% of American food qualifies as "healthy" — by the FDA's own standard

A 2026 WSU study ran 3,000+ commonly consumed foods through the FDA's updated "healthy" definition and only 14% passed — not because of exotic additives, but because of sodium and saturated fat added during processing. 90% of Americans currently exceed the daily sodium limit. The problem isn't the aisle you avoid. It's the one you shop every week.
