The Raw Deal
The carnivore diet, as we know, is all about meat, meat, and more meat. But when it comes to the question of raw vs. cooked, things can get a bit heated (pun intended). Some carnivores swear by the raw meat diet, claiming it offers better nutrient retention, improved digestion, and even the avoidance of harmful chemicals formed during the cooking process[1].
On the other hand, some of us can't help but long for the sizzle of a steak on the grill, the aroma wafting through the air, and the mouth-watering sight of a perfectly seared piece of meat. So, what's a carnivore to do?

They also claim that raw meat is easier to digest and helps avoid harmful chemicals that can form during cooking[1:1]. Plus, let's not forget the time and money saved when you skip the cooking process!
However, the raw meat diet isn't without its critics. Many question the safety of consuming raw meat due to the risk of bacterial contamination. Plus, there's the undeniable fact that cooking makes certain nutrients more bioavailable[3].
