The carnivore diet: what does it involve?
As the diet’s popularity surges online, Arnika Suska weighs its potential benefits and drawbacks
The carnivore diet, also known as the “zero carb” diet, is a restricted eating plan that only permits the consumption of eggs, fish, meat, poultry, seafood and animal fats, such as beef tallow, clarified butter or lard. If tolerable, small amounts of hard cheeses, like cheddar or parmesan, are also acceptable.
The carnivore diet also limits beverages, allowing only water, black coffee and unsweetened tea. You can, however, introduce variety to the meals by switching different cuts of meat, like beef, chicken, duck, horsemeat, lamb, pork, turkeyand veal, to name just a few.
