Over the past few months, you may have heard me reference the #LUVDIet. That's the brand new diet plan that we developed to help people get to Lower Uric Values. Still confused?

We’re hearing a lot about the carnivore diet. Here are my comments on only consuming meat and the long-term impacts that I believe need to be considered when choosing this diet. | David Perlmutter, M.D.

The carnivore diet has gathered a lot of interest as of late and so I’m regularly being asked to share my opinion on it. While I do consume high-quality meat, there is just as much value in the fruits and vegetables I am consuming. You desperately need dietary fiber to nurture your gut, which we know is key to combat inflammation and bring down the risk of disease. Eat your fruits and vegetables! | David Perlmutter, M.D.
