> There is no clinical evidence that the carnivore diet provides any health benefits. Dietitians dismiss the carnivore diet as an extreme fad diet, which has attracted criticism from dietitians and physicians as being potentially dangerous to health[1]

In fact, dietary patterns characterized by high intakes of red meat are associated with detrimental health outcomes.[2]
