The Carnivore Diet (book)

The Carnivore Diet, detailed in a book by Dr. Shawn Baker, advocates for a diet exclusively consisting of animal products—primarily meat, fish, and animal-derived foods—while excluding all plant-based foods. Proponents claim that this diet can lead to weight loss, improved energy, and various health benefits, citing anecdotal evidence from individuals who have experienced positive changes. The diet emphasizes the consumption of nutrient-dense foods like meats and organs, arguing that humans thrive on an animal-based diet. Critics, however, raise concerns about the potential lack of essential nutrients found in plants and the long-term effects of such a restrictive diet.
