The central question concerns the compatibility of an artificially sweetened, carbonated beverage with a diet primarily composed of animal products. This dietary approach emphasizes meat, fish, and other animal-derived foods, significantly restricting or eliminating plant-based items. The inclusion of items outside of those categories prompts consideration of potential effects on the diet’s intended outcomes.
Adherence to the carnivore diet is often motivated by perceived improvements in health markers, such as weight management, reduced inflammation, and improved digestive function. Strict adherence is believed by some to be necessary to realize these benefits. Introducing substances that are not derived from animals, such as artificial sweeteners and other additives found in the beverage under discussion, may compromise the diet’s purported advantages and trigger adverse reactions in sensitive individuals.
