The Carnivore Diet is one of the most controversial health trends. Is it a legitimate path to better health, or a dangerous fad diet? In this video, we unpack common Carnivore and Meat Myths. We approach questions with nuance, rather than dogma. Together we will unveil basic truths about the state of scientific evidence, fiber, vitamin C, athletic performance, disordered eating and more. This video will be eye-opening, “provocatively reasonable,” and valuable irrespective of your chosen diet. Let’s stop “beefing with beef” just for the sake of it, and think with our brains, rather than our guts.

    Myth 8: “A Carnivore Diet Means…”

    Eating a carnivore diet for therapeutic purposes Does NOT Mean:

    • …It’s best for all humans
    • …It’s good for the microbiome long-term for most people
    • …Fiber or fruit is “bad” or that carbohydrates are, as a entire macronutrient group, harmful
    • …Greenhouse gases are pixie dust
    • …Animal welfare doesn’t matter
    • …Someone else can’t succeed on a vegan diet.
