Summary

The Carnivore Diet advises one to only consume animal products. Anecdotal reports suggest this diet can be helpful for those with autoimmune conditions and sensitive guts. However, a degree of caution should be exercised with any new diet because people tend to flock to the new and novel. Today I speak with physician Paul Saladino, MD who has been using this diet in his practice for over a year. We discuss what to do, what to avoid and how you can experiment with this diet safely. https://drruscio.com/?p=55754

Today we'll be talking with Dr. Paul Salatino about the carnivore diet.

0:46.3

Now, as the name implies, the carnivore diet is a diet in which one subsists only on animal products,

0:52.4

not necessarily only animal protein, but also includes, of course,

0:55.8

animal fats and organ meats.

0:58.2

And this diet is one that has risen to popularity of late, and I do think it's one that

1:03.8

deserves a look.

1:05.5

In the clinic, I have had the opportunity to see some patients who have had very, very sensitive systems that

tend to react to almost anything that they eat. And initially, patients self-elected to try

the carnivore diet. So I had a chance to just kind of follow along with them, monitor,

1:25.1

and see the impact. And as I share in this episode, I would say perhaps

1:28.8

60% of patients report quite noticeable benefit from utilization of the carnivore diet. So we discuss a

1:37.5

number of questions relevant to this diet, the history and the research. We also discuss long-term versus short-term use and application
