The carnivore diet (also called a zero carb diet) is a high-protein fad diet in which only animal products such as meat, eggs, and dairy are consumed.[1][2][3][4][5] The carnivore diet is associated with pseudoscientific health claims.[2] The diet lacks dietary fiber, can lead to deficiencies of vitamins, and can increase the risk of chronic diseases.[3][4][6][7] The lion diet is a highly restrictive form of the carnivore diet in which only beef is eaten. A recent fad inspired by the carnivore diet is the animal-based diet in which fruit, honey and raw dairy are added.[8]
