It's demonstrated over and over again, that people following a strictly ketogenic lifestyle, especially carnivore, reverse a lot of their metabolic problems, enjoy great health, feel amazing, are at lower risks for cancer....

But..Most conscientious people when discussing carnivore, always add.. "we don't know the long term effects of this diet"

That statement is absolutely true, but it also applies to every other diet as well, we know of deficiencies of certain restrictive diets, but we don't know the long-term benefits of any specific diet. Clean populations who follow only one diet are very rare now.

It's not quite a paradox, but it feels like a paradox, the people promoting carnivore are very detail-oriented and conscientious so they list the restrictions of our knowledge, but everybody else competing for People's health interests don't list the restrictions of knowledge of their diet of choice.

Frankly, I undersell carnivore to people when I’m talking to them, because they wouldn’t believe me if I told them all the changes and how good I actually feel.

I know exactly this feeling. If specifically asked to do so, I have to start by saying "Ok, I'm going to sound crazy, but..."

Yeah, it's much better for people to ask about my old health problems and for me to say it went away when i changed my diet... and eventually they put the pieces together themselves.

Agreed. Also, I should keep this in mind more:

But…Most conscientious people when discussing carnivore, always add… “we don’t know the long term effects of this diet”

I think I'm still somewhat in the "too enthusiastic about my diet" phase.
