Carnivore Diet

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki



The Carnivore Diet is a dietary program that restricts your consumption of foods to only animal products. Though there is no official definition in the dietary community, this usually includes only meat of all types but has also been known to include animal products as well.[1] People have often placed this in the category as a type of Ketogenic diet, as meat tends to be mostly no-carb or low carb while also being somewhat high in fats but unlike ketogenic diets, negate the consumption of other low carb products such as certain dairy products, vegetables. [2]

Benefits:[edit]

Though little research has been done, Lots of people often reference this eating lifestyle as a type of way to deal with AutoImmune disorders[2]. This is often due to other types of diets not providing results that are needed. This is also often due to people being unable to find what exactly is causing their symptoms, therefore restricting their diet to a tense degree, to avoid the possible problem foods.

Other benefits often brought up are often similar to ketogenic diets and paleo diets. People often cite: weightloss, increased energy and simplicity of lifestyle.[3]

There have also been talks of the Carnivore diet helping to deal with Diabetes due to his strict, low carb regiment.[4]

Criticisms:[edit]

Due to its restrictiveness and lack of research, many dietitians often denounce the diet. Many often cite needing a variety of nutrients from a wide range of foods. [5] Most notably cited are the lack of Fiber and certain antioxidants, as well as other nutritional needs that cannot be obtained through a pure meat based diet.

It's also been cited that plants are a needed part of our health foundations as there is evidence of the populations with the highest longevity often have a high consumption of plans in their diets.[2]
