                                Arctic populations have survived for generations on nearly entirely animal-based diets. The 80 percent carnivore diet, a variation of this restrictive eating style, focuses on consuming 80% of daily calories from fat and 20% from protein, a strategy designed to promote ketosis without any carbohydrates.
