It's a diet fad. Even the carnivore diet influencers that had blood work done showed that their cholesterol was insanely high and need some sort of veg to balance it out. I really don't understand what people aim to achieve with this sort of thing 🙄 |

Eskimos have been living this meat and fish heavy diet for aeons, so that's the longest example of carnivore diet that I can think of. |

I imagine a predominantly fish based diet is healthier than a red meat bases diet. I don't really know the life expectancy of an early Inuit person though.
Plus, we live vastly different lives.
Carnivore may have made sense to a caveman who used the fat for energy in lieu of carbohydrates, but they probably ran for 20-40 miles a day to get said meat.
I don't think an hour in the gym would cut it really. |

Indeed. A very cursory look online says modern day Inuits have shorter life expectancies than Canadians. Due to access to health care - but it says high animal fats are also a contributing factor.
Physiologically I can't see how a carnivore diet can possibly be good for you. |

Michael Mosely did some research on that one. |

"I think i posted this before but lost track of it sorry. How many of you are on a carnivore lifestyle. It would be lovely to create a group of carnivore swingers "
Sounds carnally carnivorous to me....will meat eating be part of the festivities? What meat we talking? Beef? Pork? Chicken? Kebab?
I just can't eat lots of meat, it makes me feel ugh. Balance is key

Our body benefits from good levels of roughage, which will bulk out food and aid our digestive systems. |

"Thank you all for your advise...according to some of you I am committing suicide. Fair enough. My question was if someone else does this lifestyle too like me."
Wife and I are fully keto but close to carnivore. We have a small amount of veg occasionally. I’ve never felt healthier and my sleep quality is off the scale. I’m almost never hungry and when the mood takes me I’ll throw in a water fast for 48-72 hours. When we come off for any reason like a birthday or at Christmas I feel bloated all the time and can’t sleep properly. |
