[quote=Anonymous]It is essentially an elimination diet. The people who see the most health benefits from it most likely have some sort of unknown food intolerance and a compromised gut biome which has been shown to cause autoimmune diseases overtime. I suggest first cutting out sugar and eating more fermented foods like sour kraut, kombucha, kimchi, and kefir before resorting to such an extreme diet. Sugar is inflammatory and the fermented foods will help your body properly break down and get nutrition from plants. Whether the carnivore diet is healthy long-term has not been proven and there are concerns of how a high protein diet effects the kidneys long-term. There have also been concerns on how long-term elevated B-12 levels effect us. If you look at areas in the world where people live the longest (blue zones), they eat a more plant forward diet with lots of fermented foods.

Also, to the pp who has had great success with it, I caution completely removing plant based foods from your kid's diet. You are destroying their gut biome. If they ever want to go back to a more plant forward diet, they will have a really hard time transitioning due to their gut biome no longer have the proper bacteria balance to be able to process and break down plants.
