Podcast 010: The Lion Diet Explained
I created this episode using Google’s NotebookLM, an AI Research Assistant.
These sources collectively describe the Lion Diet, a highly restrictive form of the carnivore diet that typically permits only ruminant meat, salt, and water. Proponents, like its popularizer Mikhaila Peterson, claim it can act as an elimination diet to identify food sensitivities and potentially alleviate various chronic health issues, including autoimmune disorders and digestive problems. However, registered dietitians and health experts express strong concerns about the diet's severe limitations, highlighting risks of nutrient deficiencies, particularly in fiber and certain vitamins, and question its long-term safety and sustainability due to its exclusion of plant-based foods and high saturated fat content. Discussion among individuals following or considering the diet often revolves around managing costs, sourcing suitable meat (like ground beef versus whole cuts), and potential initial side effects.
