Oh.my.bob. I was working on a comment (with hyperlinked references) on our carnivorous history; the myth of fiber; how it is changing the brains of people with depression, anxiety, dementia and Alzheimer's and it DISAPPEARED. I really hate it when that happens. I keep hoping it will magically reappear and it is not. If I have the chutzpah, I will try again tomorrow.
Also, although carnivore seems like a cult, it's a supportive and happy one. Some people eat nuts, some people eat fermented veg, and there are others that eat only meat, salt, and water.
Carnivore also seems to boost testosterone for males, increase fertility for females, and may be the best protection from the sun. Anecdotally, carnivores don't get sunburn. I would also guess that most of us don't wear sunglasses, which also helps in that area.
Anyone who trusts the FDA-approved dietary guidelines, (which is what controls the "nutritionist" profession) might as well go get a few more booster shots. There are two industries that control the FDA: (1) pharma, and (2) the agricultural industry.
The FDA lied to us for over half a century, telling us that cholesterol causes heart disease, but that seed oils were good for us. Anyone who trusts the old worn out lies about what makes up an optimal diet for humans (i.e., that our stomachs can function just like a cow's) is not really doing enough research.
Oh, and the "hype" is simply due to the fact carnivore diet is reversing SERIOUS and debilitating diseases. It saved me personally from a wheelchair. I would never consider living out the rest of my life in a wheelchair just so I could eat plants again. No thanks.
Without the extra strain of plant toxins, the need for extra vitamin C drops dramatically in humans. And animal flesh has actually been used to cure scurvy - because it has more than adequate amounts of vitamin C for a body that's not constantly stressed trying to detox from plant toxins.

Have you personally ever lived on animal flesh and fats for ANY lengthy of time?
I would have an easier time letting you tell me about the pros and cons if you had ever actually tried it yourself.
