🔥Hot Take:
- The carnivore diet isn't magic; it's a 'scorched earth' elimination protocol that works by removing processed toxins, though it risks long-term micronutrient bankruptcy.
- While it 'resets' the gut for some, the total removal of fiber is a biological gamble that contradicts current microbiome science.

Claim Breakdown:
📝 Fact Check: Removing plant-based lectins and oxalates can indeed reduce gut irritation in individuals with specific sensitivities (like IBS or SIBO). However, 'resetting' is a non-clinical term, and the total removal of fiber—which fuels beneficial short-chain fatty acids—may negatively impact long-term microbiome diversity.
