It has been around a long time and it is also scientifically based and not the mere opinions of YouTubers and wannabe internet doctors. I love red meat and still eat a fair amount of it but to think that you can be healthy on a diet that is composed mainly of red meat is laughable. We need a fair amount of fiber in our diets and all meat or heavily laden meat diet is not providing any fiber. People believe what they want to hear. Who would not rather eat hamburgers, steaks, and fried eggs instead of vegetables? One thing that John is right about is "All things in moderation". That is not what the carnivore diet promotes.
Nobody ever achieved great things through moderation in all things.
When I am eating a strict carnivore diet, all of my measurable indicators of health move into the optimal ranges. This also happens to nearly every other person else who eats this way too.
I'm having trouble finding the study to link for you, but there is only ONE controlled study of people with digestive problems who ate diets containing differing levels of fiber. The group that had the most healing and the fewest digestive problems was the group that ate the LEAST AMOUNT OF FIBER. We have been preached at that we need to eat huge amounts of fiber, but humans are carnivores at heart, not ruminants.
PS. The Popular Science article is not "scientifically based." If it was, they would have scientific proof that Mikhaila Peterson either did or did not have severe arthritis when she was young, and not just make a lighthearted dismissal of her journey of healing. At that point in the the article, I correctly predicted how the rest of the article would be written. It is a biased hit piece, and nothing more.
