Reasons carnivore diet is bad:

- Deficiencies of vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C, magnesium, calcium and copper
- Lack of gut diversity
- Lack of fiber
- Iron toxicity

How to improve some of these issues:

Eat high amounts of raw and fermented meat, eat a higher diversity of cuts and types of meat

- Fermentation can increase the the amount of probiotics, which are very important for having a healthy gut microbiome, this can also lead to higher vitamin C levels in meats

- Different parts of the animal have different micronutrient profiles, this is why it’s very important to eat as close to head to tail as possible, for example many carnivores just eat muscle meat, which is very high in zinc, but not that high in copper, this completely throws off your zinc:copper ratio. Meat is also very high in phosphorus which can lead to an imbalance in your phosphorus:calcium ratio. Parts of the body such as liver, have higher copper and vitamin C which are very needed.

Ancestors such as the Inuits, who are carnivore are aware of these issues, that’s why they have always eaten high amounts of fermented meat, and eaten animals head to toe

- Adding dairy is very beneficial as it causes increase in calcium, which can counteract high zinc and phosphorus

- Giving blood is the best way to decrease high iron levels

lack of fiber and gut diversity ? could you expand in what ways are they useful

Also without carbohydrates you lack stuff for the probiotics to feed on, this is why fermented meat is very important

What? How
Because of vitamins balances

Carnivore diet is very high in phosphorus and zinc, phosphorus and calcium, and zinc and copper compete for the same absorption sites, so high phosphorus decreases calcium absorption and vice versa

And muscle meat is just low in magnesium and vitamin C

It will catch up to you if you keep doing it poorly

What do you usually eat in a day?

That’s good that you have cheese and liver, that will give you calcium, copper and vit C

You still have to watch out for iron toxicity though, it’s a severely under looked problem

Also you should start eating raw and fermented meat

You might have a point there, lets bring in the original carnivore guy

I’ve been eating raw meat for 9 months now. When will these “deficiencies” kick in?

9 months isn’t long lmao

Also you might feel fine but let’s see your bloodwork
 
Fiber is literally indigestible and causes colon dysfunctions.

Bloodwork is man made numbers and don’t prove anything. I cured my lifelong psoriasis, so that’s all the proof I need.

Yeah you probably just removed the certain food that was causing the reaction

False. I removed poison (plant materials) and started eating food (raw meat and raw animal fat).

 
Also btw I literally carnivore can be fine if you do it properly, however chances are you aren’t
Yea ok “ey88”. I’m literally the one who’s gotten everyone converting to raw carnivore and avoiding carbohydrates.

There’s no reason to avoid carbohydrates, literally all of our ancestors ate carbohydrates, they are needed for prebiotic functions, the people who didn’t (Inuits) ate high amounts of fermented meat to combat this

you've never posted any health marker nor a picture of your body, presumably they're already there.

He’s never even posted research, just unproven theories
 
I know what it is, what about it?
I thought you had a decent IQ. I was apparently incorrect.

You will be ignored until further notice.

Stop working out while still eating carbohydrates and let’s see what happens to your body. Gym slave thinks he’s high IQ. You are anything but that.

if your diet model is based on you being completely sedentary it was always shit, humans are migratory animals that move constantly.

I thought you were high IQ, I’m just asking what your point about gluconeogenesis was, I said you need to eat carbohydrates for prebiotic functions

You work out because you’re insecure. You are only in shape because you have to slave many hours everyday lifting metal.

Stop lifting just for even 6 months while eating the same diet. Then come back and show us your body. Will you do so? Of course not, because you know deep down that’s the only thing keeping yourself going.

If you have to lift to stay in shape, then your diet is wrong.

You can not out run the glycation damage done by exogenous carbohydrates.

Well yeah we walk constantly, that’s completely different than stressing yourself in a gym, not to mention the copious amounts of steroids you are on

I do a few sets an hour while doing other things, I don't go to a gym, and already looked better than you before I ever worked out.

you are completely sedentary, for all intents and purposes your body is dysfunctional to begin with and it responding well to some sort of meme diet only masks that you're dying inside.

our ancestors were so muscular some of their bones were bend.

I’m just trying to help you too, I don’t think carnivore is inherently bad, I just think you need to eat more like primitive beings for it to work well, ex; raw and fermented meat, eat animal head to toe

You work out because your life is shit. That is all. Case close and dismissed. Keep the roid shots in your ass coming. You’re committing suicide thinking girls care about being jacked. Face and height is all that matters.

working out makes me feel good, as the human body is build to burn a lot of calories, and move a lot, the reason you don't work out is because you're metabolically broken and your diet just masks it which makes you think you're healthy.

your face and height are both shit, you've never posted either.
