An animal-based diet is the best source of magnesium, negating the need for supplementation or electrolytes, and avoiding foods that deplete magnesium.

Well SupportedMeat provides approximately 25mg of magnesium per 100g.

Not SupportedStudies linking meat to negative cardiovascular outcomes should be carefully examined for confounding and bias.

Partially SupportedAnimal-based diets including beef, fruit, honey, raw dairy, and organs can provide sufficient omega-3 and iodine.

Partially SupportedThe vitamin K2 form found in animal fats like tallow (MK4) is believed to be superior to the form found in plant foods (MK7).

Not SupportedThe bioavailability of magnesium from plant sources is poor due to phytic acid and oxalates.

Partially SupportedMagnesium deficiency is not observed on animal-based diets, and magnesium is more bioavailable from animal sources than plant sources.

Partially SupportedAn animal-based diet can include sources of calcium such as bone matrix, microcrystalline hydroxyapatite, and raw dairy.

Partially SupportedEpidemiological associations with meat consumption may reflect socioeconomic status and cultural behaviors rather than the meat itself.

Partially SupportedTo improve health, one should avoid smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and risky behaviors, while also consuming red meat and organs for vitamin K2.
