Description

The carnivore diet is a controversial eating plan that consists of only animal products, such as meat, eggs, cheese, and butter. More athletes have adopted this way of eating lately claiming this diet can improve their health, weight loss. One thing athletes (specially combat athletes) do notice though is a significant drop in performance during high intensity sessions and in competitions. This is not a surprise.
