A woman followed the carnivore diet and went to hospital. The woman, 23, said the high-protein diet gave her kidney stones. These are small stones in our urine caused by eating too much protein. They cause pain when peeing. The woman had eggs and steak every day for a year. She had blood in her urine.
The carnivore diet is becoming popular. Many people on social media are promoting it. They say it raises our energy level. However, health experts say eating too much meat, fish and dairy products is bad for us. This is because there is not enough fibre in the diet. This is unhealthy and can lead to heart disease.
