Aujla also acknowledged some short-term benefits of the carnivore diet, such as improved glucose regulation, but emphasized the importance of closely monitoring one’s health and taking regular breaks when following these diets.
He concluded by advising that weight loss can be achieved through any diet, provided it matches an individual’s body type and metabolic rates.
