#Carnivorediet

A wave of people turning to an all-animal-based eating pattern has sparked lively debate in health circles, but emerging research suggests there are real nutritional red flags to consider. The latest analysis of the carnivore diet—an extreme low- or zero-carbohydrate approach that excludes plant foods—finds that while it may provide certain nutrients in adequate amounts, it also leaves several essential micronutrients at risk of insufficiency. Experts caution that the potential short-term benefits touted by some followers do not automatically translate into long-term health, and they urge careful supervision by health professionals for anyone experimenting with such a diet.

In a dramatic turn of events highlighting the risks of social media-driven health fads, a prominent advocate of the extreme carnivore diet, widely known as the “Liver King,” has publicly admitted he was “wrong” about the purported benefits of eating only animal foods—including raw organs like testicles and liver. The revelation, made in a new Netflix documentary, is prompting renewed scrutiny of restrictive diets promoted online and stoking important conversations about nutrition, health, and disinformation for audiences in Thailand and beyond (UNILAD).

A high-profile online advocate of an all-meat eating pattern has publicly acknowledged that his extreme carnivore regimen may have been misguided. In a recent Netflix documentary, the Liver King admits he was wrong about the benefits of consuming only animal products, including raw organs. The confession fuels renewed debate about social-media health fads, nutrition science, and misinformation, with implications for readers in Thailand and beyond.

The Liver King rose to global prominence by presenting a hyper-masculine image built on animal-derived foods and a nearly komplett exclusion of plants. His family joined the act, sometimes eating bull testicles and raw liver on camera under a branding banner of an “ancestral” lifestyle. He claimed the diet helped his children’s health and allergies, attracting millions of followers and spawning a lucrative supplement line.
