Is carnivore diet good for diabetics?

My uncle has diabetes and someone told him about the 'carnivore diet'. He's considering trying it, but I'm not sure if it's safe or good for someone with his condition. Can it help diabetics?

Please be extremely careful. I tried a extreme low-carb high-fat diet for my blood sugar and my cholesterol levels shot up dangerously, leading to gallbladder issues. Never start such extreme diets without consulting your doctor.

An all-meat diet can be very risky if you have high BP or kidney issues along with diabetes. Such high protein and fat intake can stress your organs. Please get your kidney function and lipid profile checked before trying this.

Managing diabetes is already so stressful, and trying to restrict yourself to only meat can make you feel so isolated at family dinners. Please don't put yourself through such mental torture. A balanced, sensible diet is much healthier for your mind and body.

No, an extreme diet like carnivore can be quite unsafe for diabetics, so please consult your doctor first.

I was reading some forums about this diet. While some people claim it reverses insulin resistance, many doctors warn that the lack of fiber is terrible for gut health. It seems highly controversial for diabetics.

Bro, eating only meat sounds super extreme and hard to sustain in India, honestly. Don't stress too much about these internet trends. Just focus on cutting down white rice and sugar, and you'll be fine.
