We don’t eat fruits or other carbohydrates containing foods because of the vitamins, at least that’s not the primary benefit. Carbohydrates are not poison and in fact are necessary for many people to thrive.

Carnivore diet peddlers project their fragility and autoimmune conditions onto others and unnecessarily prescribe a powerful medical/dietary intervention across the board regardless of individual circumstances.

When you look into it, there's a lot of evidence saying that a 90-day carnivore diet detox is actually a good way to go about it.

Otherwise, I think (personally speaking) that carbs are not good for anybody at a high level. I went carnivore for just under a month and saw a major difference in my health (before I realized I may have low dopamine levels).

I agree and recognize the value of the carnivore diet as a way to reset or as a medium to long term medical intervention for those suffering from autoimmune conditions.

I argue that most people don’t need to be so restrictive. Many have better outcomes when they include carbohydrates.

I could see where fiber comes into play, as that can help. Otherwise, I don't see any other carb being a good idea.

I’m not convinced fiber is all that important if you don’t eat processed junk. And sure, this doesn’t apply to everyone, but for a lot of people carbs help keep sex hormones in a healthy range, make it easier to absorb minerals like sodium, send the body a “plenty of fuel” signal that keeps stress hormones in check, and boost athletic performance.

These issues become more apparent after eating this way for a prolonged period of time.

I am full carnivore due to autoimmune issues and I tend to agree.

Most of ourfamily are meat based, I see no need to add veggies or fibre, but fruit seems to be ok(just not over doing it 🤷🏼‍♀️) . My youngest grandchild 15 months is leaps and bounds in front of children her age in our community.
