The carnivore diet was a thing for the Comanche people for centuries until they were massacred and confined to reservations. We obviously don't have data on their rates of heart disease but overall they were healthier than others living at the same time.

(I'm not recommending that anyone eat a carnivore diet, just pointing out that it's hardly novel.)
