The carnivore and vegan ways of eating are both extreme versions of their respective categories. Both ways of eating promote ditching processed foods, sugar and such in order to improve health, yet the carnivore diet is "too extreme" and will kill you.

There's certain nutrients that are more easily gained through eating vegetables and likewise there are certain nutrients more easily gained through eating meat. I think any diet that solely consists of meat or vegetables is going to lead to malnutrition.

I've tried both. For vegan it was a green juice diet. For carnivore it was water, salt, beef (with some bacon and eggs). I felt 10x better on both diets, though with carnivore there's a hump to get over. Considering going back to carnivore again soon.

My wife is here disputing my vegan diet claims. She says I didn't last very long. I trust her memory more than mine. I stayed on carnivore for much longer. The emergency abdominal surgery was just a coincidence.
