Dr. Anthony Chaffee, a neurosurgical registrar, nutritional researcher and advocate of the carnivore diet explains that many, almost all, chronic diseases stem from dietary choices and can be improved or even reversed by adopting a species-appropriate diet.
He emphasizes that humans are natural carnivores and thrive on a diet consisting exclusively of animal-based foods.Dr. Chaffee believes the optimal carnivore diet includes:
- Meat: Prioritize fatty cuts from ruminant animals like beef, lamb, goat, and venison, as they provide essential nutrients and healthy fats.
- Eggs: Consume eggs if well-tolerated, focusing on the yolks, which are nutrient-dense.
- Salt and Water: Season food to taste with salt and hydrate with water; additional supplements are unnecessary unless you have known nutrient deficiencies.
Dr. Chaffee advises against consuming all plant-based foods, sugars, artificial sweeteners, and anything artificial, as these are causing our modern health issues.
By eliminating plant toxins and anti-nutrients, Dr. Chaffee has shown how anyone can experience significant health improvements, including weight loss, enhanced mental clarity, and relief from autoimmune and digestive disorders.
