  1. These are not secular resources, they are science. Profoundly religious men came up with the scientific method in order to refine our knowledge and get to the truth of the world we live in. The scientific method has no parallel or competitor in any other methodology. So using a properly controlled randomized control trial to prove scientifically what many in the carnivore diet community think they already know is extremely useful. Anecdotes are only raw data and useless when compared to actual proper RCT data.
  2. Yes Les, you can disprove an experience. Human experience isn't reliable. People lie. And worse, people lie to themselves. Delusion is rampant in the human species, so science and consistent replication is the only way to get through the delusional state of humanity.
  3. Actually, this is my basic outline of a proposal for an actual study. Notice how the diet requires there be no supplementation. This will prove once and for all that vegans cannot be healthy without supplements and that carnivore is actually the only truly healthy diet for humans.
  4. Introduction The escalating prevalence of metabolic syndrome represents a critical public health issue. Emerging anecdotal evidence suggests that various dietary interventions, including carnivore, vegan, and standard American diets (SAD), may offer significant benefits. This study aims to rigorously evaluate these claims through a controlled, blinded, and comprehensive approach. Objectives Primary Objective: To compare the long-term effects of carnivore, vegan, and SAD on key metabolic health indicators. Secondary Objective: To ensure the integrity of dietary intervention data through strict monitoring of supplement intake and dietary compliance. Revised Methodology Participant Recruitment and Grouping Sample Size: 30,000 participants, equally divided into three diet groups, ensuring a 50/50 male-to-female ratio. Selection Criteria: Based on initial comprehensive bloodwork and basal metabolic rate, without regard to race or pre-existing health conditions. Group Assignment: Participants will be assigned to their diet groups based on their current dietary practices. Each dietary group will be assigned to three categories: Long term diet (5+ years), medium term diet (6+ months), and brand new to diet (starting for first time). Dietary Intervention and Control Nutritional Oversight: Each diet group will have dedicated nutritional teams comprising two nutritionists, two doctors, and two registered dietitians who are advocates of their respective diets. Controlled Food Delivery: Collaborating with specialized food delivery services to ensure adherence to prescribed diets. Meal plans will be adjusted as needed, based on health feedback and participant preferences within diet constraints. Monitoring and Compliance: Participants will use a study-provided app for daily food logging. Weekly self-reports and periodic unannounced recalls will further ensure adherence. Supplement Monitoring Protocol Baseline and Monthly Screening: Blood tests to detect unauthorized supplement use. Markers for common dietary supplements will be screened to ensure compliance with study dietary restrictions. Stool Sample Confirmation: Upon detection of potential supplement use, stool samples will be analyzed for confirmation. Participants confirmed to have used unauthorized supplements will be removed from the study, and their data will be expunged. Participant Agreement: All participants will sign an agreement acknowledging the study's dietary and supplement restrictions. Counseling will be provided to discuss the importance of adherence for the study's integrity. Health Monitoring and Data Collection Health Assessments: Monthly health check-ups, including blood tests and biometric measurements, complemented by continuous glucose monitoring for real-time metabolic feedback. Ethical Safeguards: An independent data safety monitoring board (DSMB) will oversee participant health, with protocols in place for intervening in cases of health deterioration. Budget and Funding An expanded budget will account for controlled food delivery, nutritional team compensation, health monitoring technology, and participant support services. Funding will be sought from unbiased sources, with transparency in financial disclosures. Ethical Considerations Informed Consent: Detailed consent forms will explain the study's procedures, dietary interventions, and health monitoring protocols. Safety and Well-being: Continuous monitoring and immediate intervention for adverse health effects will prioritize participant safety. Impact and Significance This study aims to fill critical gaps in our understanding of how distinct dietary patterns influence metabolic health. By employing a rigorous methodology, including controlled dietary interventions and strict supplement monitoring, the study will provide high-quality evidence to inform future dietary guidelines and public health recommendations. Conclusion Addressing the metabolic health crisis requires evidence-based dietary interventions. This study represents a significant step towards understanding the impacts of carnivore, vegan, and SAD on metabolic health, offering a blueprint for future nutritional research and public health policy.
