The “Carnivore MD” (Paul Saladino) who wrote the Carnivore Code is now saying that this strict carnivore diet is probably not healthy for most humans in the long term.

In a podcast interview with More Plates More Dates, he openly talks about how a strict carnivore diet actually had many negative impacts on his health, which is why he no longer calls himself the 'Carnivore MD' and also eats more fruit, maple syrup and raw dairy,

For a long time, myself, and many other people have voiced our concerns when it comes to carnivore proponents.

Just like every other diet, you will ALWAYS find a small subset of people who turn that diet into a cultlike following and suddenly pretend it is the best thing in the world.

Apparently, this carnivore diet was the “SECRET” to “UNLOCKING OPTIMAL HEALTH”, but just 4 years later it is now “probably not healthy for most humans”. This also means that he had been eating the carnivore diet for just two years before writing about it in the Carnivore Code. Tens of thousands, maybe even hundreds of thousands of people bought a carnivore book based on his own experience of less than two years.

I honestly love people admitting mistakes publicly. I think it’s very important to be able to do so.
But, I think it’s also ok to point out that it is a bit worrying when someone flip flops so massively on what they were previously saying.

Before carnivore proponents get their feathers ruffled, I DO NOT CARE what diet plan you want to follow.

If you feel better eating a certain way, awesome. All the power to you.

But we should all agree that people promoting heavily biased information is not a net positive to help other people learn.

All I have ever asked for is for people to talk about the pros and cons of different diets honestly.
That shouldn’t be a lot to ask?
