I've made lots of changes to my website. Here's a list of all the Databases in a thread. I built it as a pet project to keep track of history, science, and nutrition concerning the #CarnivoreDiet in a way where each individual argument, historical event, book, etc can be linked.
Homepage: meatrition.com - About me, some videos, links, and updates.
All History - 1012 quotes about the carnivore diet and related topics (science, religion, other diets) - chronically ordered, tagged, imaged, and meticously copied out of old texts no one wants to read.
Ancient History - This collection goes beyond 2,000 years old and all "times" are in BCE. It could eventually become the most expansive part of the database.
I built this page to be a quicker way to view lots of history entries quickly. You can open any of them to see the full quote and source. Feel free to share.
Ethnography List -- A list in table format of all entries in my Ethnography database.
Click the red links on the left to open dedicated pages about diet, history, adaptation to civilization, and photos. Also have estimated percentages for nutrients.
Here's an alternative view of the ethnography database with much more text and information, although you can still open an expanded entry with more text/photos ( click 'See More')
Notable Carnivores - Meatritionists - Health professionals and notable influencers in the carnivore space. 141 people long, 8 pages.
Screenshot evidence of support of carnivorous support, notes, images, and more. DM me if you think you should be added.
Books: This was the first database I built on my website, and it has search, filters, sorts to browse, and title, author, amazon description/mine, cover photo, public date, ranking if I read it.
A new database collection created in the past few weeks for detailed nutritional information on various foods. Very much a work in progress with only one entry (ribeye), and lots of rough design.
While building this website, I also kept track of all science coming into the space supporting my arguments and added it to my @zotero library with unlimited storage. I'm interested in adding book references or other collections. DM me if interested.
If you've made it this far and clicked on some of the links, let me know which ones you liked most with a Retweet. I'm just trying to get more eyes on this information.

2/n Red and processed meat intakes and cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus: An umbrella systematic review and assessment of causal relations using Bradford Hill’s criteria
1/n - I am constantly on the hunt for fresh science to add to my @zotero as well as Meatrition.com's databases.
This weekend I received a powerpoint from @LDLSkeptic that had a source I didn't know of - a book from 1892 that talked about cutting out carbs for obesity.

Dr Diamond had a great slide and I realized I was missing this source in my All History Database on my website.
Most of these books are available for free on archive sites. Just google the title!
1/n A fascinating article came out this summer that argues for a plant-forward omni diet, and it contains a very inflammatory headline:
"Debunking the #vegan myth: The case for a plant-forward omnivorous whole-foods diet"
Note author Loren Cordain, a paleo proponent
2/n
The abstract:
"Veganism is without evolutionary precedent in Homo sapiens species. Strict adherence to a #vegan diet causes predictable deficiencies in nutrients including vitamins B12, B2, D, niacin, iron, iodine, zinc, high-quality proteins, omega-3, and calcium."

Let's review the images quickly because they show some of these dangers.
Fig. 1. Hazard ratios for all-cause mortality as calculated by Cox proportional hazards multi-variable regression analysis16. P = 0.082.
All cause mortality for #vegans and vegetarians is higher!
