Assessing the Nutrient Composition of a Carnivore Diet: A Case Study Model.
Nutrients
December 2024
Human Potential Centre, Faculty of Health and Environmental Sciences, Auckland University of Technology, Auckland 0632, New Zealand.
Background/objectives: The rise in chronic metabolic diseases has led to the exploration of alternative diets. The carnivore diet, consisting exclusively of animal products, has gained attention, anecdotally, for imparting benefit for inflammatory conditions beyond that possible by other restrictive dietary approaches. The aim was to assess the micronutrient adequacy of four versions of the carnivore diet against national nutrient reference values (NRVs).

Nutrients
December 2024
Division of Nutritional Sciences, Cornell University, 244 Garden Ave, Ithaca, NY 14853, USA.
Background: The Mycotoxin Mitigation Trial (MMT) was a community-based cluster-randomized trial designed to assess the effect of dietary aflatoxin (AF) on linear growth. Similar dietary intake between arms was an important component of the trial's program theory and essential for the trial's internal validity and interpretation.
Objective: This analysis assessed and compared dietary intake by arm within a sub-sample of infants enrolled in the MMT.
