Episode Show Notes:
Welcome to Episode 6 of the Peak Performance Podcast with Coach Kyle and Dr. K – your guide to optimizing your life one health tip at a time.
In this episode, we tackle the carnivore diet craze with our signature blend of science, sarcasm, and no-nonsense insights. The all-meat approach has been hyped by influencers, but does it hold up in the long run? Spoiler: probably not. From vitamin deficiencies to gut health to misleading testosterone myths, we break down what actually happens when you ditch plants entirely—and why a "carnivegan" approach might be closer to the sweet spot.
What You’ll Learn:
Why eating only meat might make you feel great… at first
The science behind fiber, mTOR, and long-term health impacts
What happens to your brain (and libido) without carbs
Why influencers pivot from strict diets—and why you should be skeptical
A fun (and accurate) case for a more balanced, whole-food approach
