Until recently, I never thought the title of this episode could be true. Most of us have heard the common narrative too often: “Eat less meat, save the planet”. But is it actually true? I interviewed Dr. Peter Ballerstedt to find out if meat is a good option if we care about global health.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • How becoming a healthier person has a greater environmental impact than going vegan
  • Why Dr. Ballerstedt is obsessed with ruminants
  • Why you can get less protein than it says on the nutrition label
  • Most of the globe is already plant based and why Dr. Ballerstedt doesn’t think going vegan is the solution to human or planetary health
  • What are the problems with the food supply?
