Carnivore Diet: An Unseen Trigger for Anxiety?


Listen Later

Have you tried the carnivore diet after seeing headlines like "Carnivore Diet Best for Mental Health," only to experience adverse reactions such as anxiety, insomnia, or feeling constantly wired? Or perhaps you're currently on the carnivore diet and have seen significant benefits? Either way, this episode is for you. I'll offer clarity on the diet's potential effects on mental health, addressing both positive and negative experiences.

My goal is to offer a balanced perspective, free from influencer hype, on whether the carnivore diet may be suitable for your mental health. I'll examine this topic through four key areas:

  • Imbalanced GABA and glutamate levels in the brain
  • The role methylation plays in the consumption of animal proteins
  • The impact of oxalate toxicity on the brain and body
