There is a weird trend now arguing that you should go low fat on a carnivore diet, because wild animals can be lean and therefore our ancestors would have only eaten lean meat on a carnivore diet. this is demonstrably false, and unsafe, for many reasons, as explained in this video.

(My video "Is Ketosis Harmful?" https://youtu.be/nJyUQmRc1q8?si=r2IngkzpwxEqkCFv )

What we seem to see are people who may not be doing a full carnivore diet, just fatty meat and water, and will include quite a lot of dairy such as milk or cheese, yogurt etc I may even include artificial sweeteners, which absolutely will Elevate insulin the fat storage hormone. People do this and they tend to gain weight or can't lose the weight they want to lose, and they get convinced that this is because they are eating too much fat, even though eating high-fat carnivore actually improved their health, nutrition, society, and help with weight loss earlier on before they added in the dairy and the artificial sweeteners. Once they lower the fat, they start to get the majority of their calories from protein and can start getting very unwell from low-grade protein poisoning. this may lose some weight, as an early sign of protein poisoning is rapid weight loss, but this is unhealthy weight loss. Then they might think that this is just a fact of being in ketosis so they adding carbohydrates, and because they are now getting calories from something besides protein, the protein poisoning subsides, thus confirming their own bias.

So by not doing carnivore and using artificial sweeteners and/or dairy people start to gain weight or not be able to lose as much weight as they want to, so they switch to low fat hoping that will help. Then they start feeling unwell, like we do to low-grade protein poisoning and likely malnutrition from a lack of fat soluble vitamins, and so they think that carnivore didn't work for them and they start adding back in other things like carbohydrates. Then they tell others that carnivore didn't work for them and maybe it doesn't work for others as well, but the problem is that they weren't doing carnivore in the first place. Carnivore is a complete absence of anything except meat and eggs, and for some people not even eggs. If you add in a lot of dairy and / or sweeteners you will not get the same results as others, and you will likely gain weight.

Fat is an essential nutrient, and our ancestors absolutely prioritize the fat, and ate the fattiest animals that they could find. #carnivore #weightloss #nutrition
