I had one free article I could read on the New Yorker. I read this:

Is an all-meat diet what nature intended?, by Manvir Singh, The New Yorker, Annals of Gastronomy, Red Shift, 25 September 2023

This excerpt will probably have me looking up the book, “Eat Like the Animals.”

Some meatfluencers stress that human beings are animals and maintain that, if allowed to eat according to our animal instincts, we will favor a meaty menu. But the biologists David Raubenheimer and Stephen J. Simpson have been investigating animal alimentation for more than thirty years, and their new book, “Eat Like the Animals,” suggests that the meatfluencers have it all wrong.

[Some of their findings …]

[Raubenheimer and Simpson] have found that protein-loaded diets don’t just age animals; they kill them faster. “Our sexy, lean mice who ate high-protein, low-carb diets were the shortest lived of all,” they wrote of research published in 2014. “They made great-looking middle-aged corpses.”
…
Cutting out carbs may make us skinnier and accelerate tissue development, shifting our bodies into a “growth and reproduction pathway.” But this comes at the expense of longevity. Repair and maintenance systems are sidelined. Misfolded proteins and other cellular junk accumulate. Pushed into overdrive, the body falters.

That reminds me of what Dean Ornish said over 20 years ago:

When you go on a high-protein, high-fat diet, you may temporarily lose weight — but you may also mortgage your health in the process.
