Let’s Chat, Diets: Carnivore
Welcome back to let's chat diets! In this episode, we talk everything carnivore diet. It would have been great to get a guest on board who is a carnivore but it proved quite difficult as a large proportion of the vocal carnivores are either absolute zealots or will refuse to remove the tunnel vision and have a logical discussion. We assure you though that we did our best to look at both sides of the coin and we certainly came prepared with multiple solid studies to get into.
As well as Toms craziness (this week it went to a new level) we focus on breaking down certain claims made by carnivores.
We go in study heavy on this one BUT as you'll find out studies are sometimes very misleading. Bill brings up 3 whopping studies showing no link between high levels of saturated fat and coronary heart disease and cardiovascular disease Tom then replies with some very important information. What we found is that it's very easy to cherry-pick certain data and certain studies to fit your bias and when it comes to actual decent relevant data there are no decent studies in support of this diet. If you go online you'll see numerous "success" cases but we get into why these may be and reiterate that anecdotal evidence is the lowest form of evidence.
