Joe Rogan's 'Carnivore Diet' limits carbs, beefs up on protein
Popular podcast host says his energy levels are 'amazing'
Some of us may remember the Atkins Diet from back in the day which emphasized the consumption of protein and limited carbohydrates. Now, podcast host Joe Rogan is touting something similar, which is nicknamed the 30-day carnivorous diet.
"When you have no carbohydrates, one of the things that's most amazing is that there's no crashing," Rogan said during his show "The Rogan Experience." "You would eat, and you don't feel any different after you ate other than the fact that you don't feel hungry."
