About This Diet
Carnivore Diet Basics
The carnivore diet consists exclusively of animal products: meat, fish, eggs, and some dairy. All plant foods are eliminated. Proponents claim benefits for autoimmune conditions, gut health, and mental clarity. It is essentially a zero-carb diet and the most extreme form of low-carb eating.
Key Principles
- Eat only animal-derived foods: meat, fish, eggs, dairy
