Carnivore diet is generally understood as a diet that consists of only animal products, excluding all other foods types. The Diet Doctor website offers some additional guidance:
"So, what do you actually eat on the diet? Also called a zero-carb diet or animal-sourced foods (ASF) diet, the carnivore diet typically consists of 100% animal foods — meat, fish, eggs, high-fat dairy products, and animal fats. Some adherents eat only meat, salt, and water. Others allow for exceptions like coffee, tea, and small amounts of spices used in cooking, if tolerated.
According to a survey of 170 participants who had been following a carnivore diet for at least six months, the exact composition of the diet may differ widely among individuals due to food preferences or other considerations. Beef was the most common food consumed across the group, but a wide variety of animal foods was reported.
The carnivore diet has been getting a lot of attention lately. There are Reddit forums with thousands of members, many Facebook groups, numerous articles in mainstream media, podcasts and hundreds of YouTube videos." (Scher, 2024)
What I can say from 5 weeks of personal experience on this diet coupled with 4 days of moderate exercise a week, is that I have lost 10 pounds and feel more natural energy than I have in years.
