So I already explained carnivore, but there are a few variations on this theme. And it's basically just a super carbohydrate restricted diet designed to keep your body in a state of what's called ketosis. Ketosis means you don't have enough carbs to burn for your body's fuel, so you start burning off fat instead.

South Beach Diet, Atkins, Caveman, these are all variations on the theme of making carbs into a bogeyman. In reality, it's just that if you eat a ton of carbs, you're constantly hungry because carbs aren't satiating, which is a fancy SAT word for they don't make you feel full. Eat a bag of chips, you want another one in 10 minutes, you don't feel full. Protein, Makes you feel full.

I feel like it's one of those things where everyone has research to support what they think, which is true about dietary science in general. And so much of this is like people know what results they're supposed to get when they start to study. But yes, it's bad for your kidneys. So how bad is it? It can cause kidney disease. It can make existing kidney disease worse.
