The carnivore diet is a dietary plan that consists exclusively of animal products, primarily meat, fish, and animal-derived foods like eggs and dairy. Proponents believe that this diet can lead to weight loss, improved mental clarity, and reduced inflammation by eliminating carbohydrates and plant-based foods. Critics of the carnivore diet raise concerns about its nutritional balance, as it lacks fruits, vegetables, and whole grains, which are important for vitamins, minerals, and fiber. Long-term health effects are still being studied, and individuals considering this diet should consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.
