Popular Diets and Common Nutrition Misconceptions (Part 1)
The Stronger By Science Podcast
Carnivore Diet
Some people have started to adapt the carnivore diet a little bit. It's funny, because from a nomenclature perspective, I think it's kind of silly," he says. "I don't know why you're fighting so hard to make this seem like a carnivore-adjacent diet" 'Carnivore diet content is like its own little niche,' she adds.
In today’s episode, Eric Trexler discusses some of the advantages and disadvantages of popular diets, and explores some common misconceptions in the world of nutrition. Topics include low-carb diets, the Zone diet, the South Beach diet, the glycemic index, continuous glucose monitors, gluten-free diets, “eating clean,” ketogenic diets, the Atkins diet, the Paleo diet, and the carnivore diet.
