A leading doctor has discussed the ‘carnivore diet‘ during the popular Joe Rogan Experience podcast.
Cardiologist Dr. Joel Kahn took part in a debate about the paleo diet last week, facing off against Chris Kresser.
During the debate, host Joe Rogan asked for his guests’ opinions on the carnivore diet, saying: “I am baffled by this carnivore diet. I’m baffled by how many people are clinging to it as a panacea.”

“Where are these people – where every chart says meat has no Vitamin C – getting it? Are they eating raw meat which may contain it? Are they eating organ meat?”
