January is World Carnivore Month and you might be wondering why.
Suddenly the carnivore diet is everywhere.
It sounds crazy.
Eating only meat.
Why on Earth would anyone consider such a strict diet?
While high-profile endorsements¹ like Joe Rogan’s have certainly played a part, there’s more to the story.
An ever-growing body of anecdotal evidence suggests the carnivore diet heals multiple chronic conditions. It’s too compelling to dismiss.
Subjective evidence² suggests that a high-fat, animal-based diet can be transformative in that it:
- Supports losing weight without calculating metrics
- Remits or cures autoimmune disorders like IBS
- Remits or relieves digestive conditions
- Reverses inflammation associated with depression and anxiety
- Relieves eating disorders and food addictions
Many Americans, weary of prescription medications and their adverse effects, choose to seek alternatives for healing.
