Social media diet urging excess meat eating a 'ticking timebomb' for the body

The 'Carnivore Diet' includes meat, poultry, eggs, seafood, water, and some dairy products.

A diet urging excess meat eating and claiming vegetables are toxic is hugely popular on social media but can lead to heart attacks or impotence, a leading nutritionist has warned.

The 'Carnivore Diet' has been tagged at least 91 million times on TikTok, while one Instagram influencer with almost four million followers has also promoted it.
