A new study has produced strong evidence that red meat consumption is a trigger for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), demonstrating how it alters gut bacteria and immune activity in ways that worsen inflammation. It furthers scientific knowledge of the many pathways involved in inflammation, taking…
I find that remarkable considering the fact that astronauts would eat high protein foods to minimize their bowel movements because the human body will efficiently absorb highly bioavailable proteins and fat (e.g. from animal sources) it consumes. Considering human feces are 75% water and the remaining 25% are primarily bacterial biomass and plant matter, my guess is the carnivores you know have just started the diet and have upset their stomachs with the sudden change.

To minimize their bowel movements, astronauts had a high-protein, low-residue diet — think steak and eggs and other foods that are don’t make a lot of waste after they are absorbed by the body.
Wow, that is a fun fact! I had no idea. That is going into trivia night
I am a carnivore, and I talk to other carnivores. In the group people who only eat animal based food, and no plants: Our poop is consistent, infrequent (1-2 days), minimal, moves easily and not smelly.
Maybe just google bowel issue research for your meme diet and all other proven dangers but clearly rationality is lost with something called “carnivore diet”.
I actually have read the papers! But that is a different point altogether, let’s get back on track…
this discussion was your personal experience with multiple carnivores who have persistent diarrhea, which doesn’t match the experience of myself, or anecdotes of other strict carnivores I have spoken with. I’d like to know what kind of diet your personal connections are following? Do you mean carnivore as in no plant based foods, or in that they eat any meat at all?
Personally know multiple carnivores who can’t stop shitting themselves and still swear by the diet.

Sure thing buddy, enjoy your meme diet while you can lol
Your bowel movement talking point doesn’t match my experience, perhaps your prediction is just as accurate?

I personally know a few carnivores that they wish they could shit more often than twice a week.
Fun fact, removing fibre from the diet is the only method demonstrated in a interventional control trial in eliminating clinical constipation.
slide on Fiber intake and constipation
If these people are still eating lots of fiber (or cheese) they might want to cut that out.
What’s your point?
Maybe the fact is true because my anecdotal evidence aligns with it.
I don’t shit myself, and I eat meat. Your “fact” has just been disproven. Do better.
My fact? Did you read the article or did your dumb ass diet took away your ability to read too?
