1. Fiber isn’t required for human beings and is actually contra-indicated (bad).
2. Muscle meat and associated fats have enough Vitamin C that we require. If there wasn’t, then you would see people who eat 100% carnivore have Scurvy. Where’s my Scurvy after 10 months of raw carnivore daily?
3. Not 1g of exogenous carbohydrates from plants are required for humans. They are poison.
4. There are 0 cause and effect studies to provide evidence that saturated fat in high amounts causes any disease or increases risks of diseases.
There are several things wrong with this. All of those videos are by one singular nutritionist who has a financial incentive to spread fear-mongering and misinformation. There have been several professionals who have gone rogue like this, for example, Steven Gundry who made his money selling a book villainizing vegetables.
Why do you believe this singular nutritionalist podcaster, when the beliefs he is pushing go against tens of thousands of other nutritionists and established beliefs?...
One thing you have to see is videos often cherry-pick data. While some studies might find no mortality benefit in specific populations, fiber’s role in long-term health is well-documented. The weight of evidence strongly supports its importance, and in that you are completely outnumbered.
Fiber: Fiber is well-documented to promote gut health, reduce inflammation, and lower risks for chronic diseases like heart disease and cancer. Studies overwhelmingly support its importance, and eliminating it from your diet is just stupid.

Vitamin C: Like I said, small amounts of Vitamin C DO exist in raw organ meats, but it’s insufficient for optimal health beyond scurvy prevention. Vitamin C supports immune health, collagen production, and acts as an antioxidant... functions that require more than what a carnivore diet can provide. You're gonna need to eat a lot of meat to replace what a simple orange can give you in MUCH less calories.
Carbohydrates: While I agree they're not absolutely "essential" in the strictest sense, you can't deny carbs are the body’s preferred energy source, especially for high-intensity activities. Complex carbs (like those in whole grains and fruits) are linked to numerous health benefits, including improved heart and metabolic health.

So much for "0 cause and effect studies", right?
I recommend lowering your ego and stopping valuing conspiracy theories above established beliefs in the world of scientific literature and medicine. Get yourself out of the echo chamber. Instead of relying on cherry-picked studies or anecdotal evidence, let’s consider the full breadth of scientific research for a balanced understanding.
