Are you consuming entire animals? Just meat? No snark there, either. Skeletal muscle alone isn't a complete diet. It's lacking in a few areas. Eating nothing but meat does seem to improve body composition, insulin sensitivity, some autoimmune conditions, some people report more steady energy levels... but, scurvy is eventually a problem, as will be hemochromatosis, among other things.

This couple has eaten nothing but ribeye steaks for over 20 years: https://www.ketoforhealth.org/articles/150-joe-and-charlene-...

Can you tell me what areas this diet is lacking in? Scurvy is not a problem because fresh meat contains vitamin C. And hemochromatosis is not a problem either. It sounds to me like you're just hypothesizing here. In fact, people have known for centuries that fresh meat prevents scurvy.

yeah, it's 90% hypothesizing. Don't take it as me saying what you should or shouldn't do. Obviously, I'm not in a position to do that. It's just... if your neighbour pulled up with a car that's powered by cooking oil, you'd probably look at it and go "really? that can't work." and hope that he understands that it's curiousity, confusion and frankly a lack of knowledge of something so foreign.

I've seen a couple guys (father/son) try it out. Dad said it basically reversed his diabetes, son was pretty much OK the whole time I knew him.

I dunno man. Carnivore diets aren't for me. I just don't get how it works, doesn't mean that it doesn't work though.
