You never want to listen to Harvard - probably on anything, but DEFINITELY NOT on the benefits of a low-meat diet.

They're well known for being anti-meat/pro carb. Harvard Has Been Anti-Meat for 30+ Years—Why?. Here's a quote:

Far less well known is the fact that this fear of eating red meat can mainly be traced back to a single person, Harvard’s Walter C. Willett, the first and most prominent anti-meat champion in academia. Indeed, in 1990, the year before he started his 25-year reign (1991-2017) as head of the nutrition department at the highly influential Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health (HSPH), Willett said it’s “quite possible” that “no red meat” was the optimal amount to eat. His more recent work has involved leading an international effort for a near-meatless diet for all people, globally. Yet this passion has never had a foundation in solid evidence. Rather, it has been based in a mixture of personal ambition, bad science, financial interests and bias.

I recently wrote a whole post on how the low-carb/keto/carnivore diets are being attacked, even though the evidence on their beneficial health effects are very substantial: The USDA is ignoring the massive science on the benefits of low-carb diets

I don't care about Harvard and surely don't care about what people write against Harvard. I found this article just like a good food for mind. Also, I'm not against meat. I'm just saying that vegetables and Fruits outweigh meat in health benifits.

vegetables and Fruits outweigh meat in health benifits.

How? Please elaborate, I'm genuinely curious.

I hope you've already listened about the healing and prevention capacity of many vegetarian things.

Oh yes, definitely, no doubt about it, but I'm hearing similar credible stories about the other diets as well. And having practiced the plant based and carnivore diets, I can confirm their accuracy

My point is, how do you even compare and rank these different diets? Is it even possible or do other factors come into play, that will favour one diet over another one, for instance, I wouldn't try an exclusive plant based diet in a very cold climate, it'd be very impractical.

Okay. Let me ask you a question for this. Can you say that a carnivore diet can heal Sciatica? But a simple herb healed it when no other medicine worked.

I'm hearing similar credible stories about the other diets as well.

Will you please share some links which suggest that a carnivore diet can prevent a disease or cure it?

Because Inflammation in the body can contribute to sciatica, I guess yes the carnivore diet may possibly "heal" it as well. Obviously I'm not an MD, so please DYOR.

The carnivore diet is also very famous for reversing autoimmune conditions, Jordan Peterson's daughter has spoken at length about it, so as many others like Drs Paul Saladino, Shawn Baker, Anthony Chaffee etc.

First of all inflammation isn't the cause of sciatica. Instead it's one of the results of sciatica. Sciatica most often happens when a herniated disk or an overgrowth of bone or buildup of plaque due to unused proteins buildup around the sciatica nerve puts pressure on the lumbar spine. You gave me some names which I don't know. Can you please suggest me some links.

I actually checked online before posting. It can indeed cause it too😉
