A woman who switched from a vegan diet to eating only meat and dairy products six years ago has revealed the shocking impact it's had on her body.

Plant-based diets have been on the rise over recent years, with statistics from The Vegan Society and Finder estimating that between 2-3% of the UK population follow a vegan diet.

But not everybody is convinced by the growing trend to axe animal products from their diets, with one woman who has been eating only meat and diary for the past six years after previously being vegan sharing the impact it's had on her body.

US-based content creator Bella (@steakandbuttergal) regularly shares updates regarding her exclusively carnivore lifestyle, which sees her shun all carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables.

The decision to follow such a drastic diet may come as a shock to most of us, seeing as we're regularly told it's important to practice and balanced eating habits.

However, Bella stands by her carnivore decision, claiming that her lifestyle has helped deal with skin issues, regulate her menstrual cycle and improve her mental health.

In one clip showing herself gorging on an entire roast chicken, Bella tells her 421,000 Instagram followers: "I haven't eaten a single carb, piece of fruit or vegetable in six years and I'm not dying of low energy, nor have I wrecked my hormones.

"I've actually lost 25 pounds, now have painless periods, unbelievably stable energy and moods because my body burns fat for fuel now."

In another clip she claims that her body odour has improved drastically since switching from being vegan to following a carnivore diet.

"People think that if you only eat meat you will smell terrible," she says in a voiceover, while eating a steak.

"I used to be vegan for about six years [and] my body odour, farts and sweating just went out of control and now that I'm carnivore I don't need any soap or body wash. I smell amazing and I no longer fart."

What does the NHS say about a carnivore diet?

According to guidance from the NHS, a healthy and balanced adult diet should consist of at least five portions of fruit and vegetables, high fibre foods such as potatoes, rice or bread, dairy (or dairy alternatives), a source of protein and unsaturated oils.

When it comes to eating red or processed meats the NHS recommends that to avoid eating no more than 70g of either per day.

Meanwhile, Cancer Research UK has warned that processed and red meats are carcinogens which have been linked to an increased risk of bowel cancer.
