De: Myles Young

Narrado por: Davin Jimenez

They say ignorance is bliss, but is it really? Just because you’re unaware of the impact something has doesn’t mean there isn’t one. My goal with this book isn’t to convince anyone to go plant-based or to push a specific agenda. Instead, I want to share the information that often goes unnoticed—the facts most people don’t know. By shedding light on these truths, I hope to empower you to make choices based on knowledge rather than ignorance.

Discover how a plant-based vegan or vegetarian diet can improve your health, the environment, and the world around you. By listening to this book, you will gain the knowledge and empowerment to make informed choices. Every action, no matter how seemingly insignificant, carries consequences. What you do on a daily basis adds up—it matters. The same goes for the food you eat. It can either be a powerful form of medicine or a slow, steady poison—not just for you, but for the world.

- Learn about the effects it has on climate change and our planet

This audiobook is a game-changer! Hidden Impact delivers a compelling, fact-based exploration of how plant-based diets affect both personal health and the environment. The author’s honest, no-pressure approach made me feel informed rather than preached to. It’s inspiring to realize how much power our daily choices hold, and this book left me motivated to make more mindful decisions. The narration is engaging, and the message is clear: progress, not perfection, is what matters. Highly recommend for anyone curious about the ripple effects of their food choices!

hidden impact

Just like the name suggest it a hidden impact not only on your health but on the environment. Certain food can affect your body and health without you even knowing it. If it doesn't affect your health than it can damage and destroy the environment. SOme talk also about climate change in this book. A good read on hidden impact of the way we eat.

Health impact

It differs from other books in separating the benefits of a plant-based lifestyle to your health, to your way of life, and to the planet. It provides actionable advice on gradually and realistic steps that motivate listeners to step forward.

Informative and practical

An informative read for anyone interested in a plant-based diet. I like that it focuses on making healthier choices and that small changes make a difference over time. It’s not about perfection but the journey to smarter eating and lifestyle choices.

I had no idea

I’m not totally plant based but I might be after listening to this. I never knew so many of our natural resources are used at much higher rates for meat production than plants. This was an eye opener.

Genuine

Myles really cares about the climate, and his purpose, which I am so happy about, isn't to push a certain agenda or to do something that is secretly trying to get you to do something. He really cares, and you can feel that.

This book will make you think

I used to think choosing what to eat was just about cravings but turns out it’s tied to way more.. health, climate and daily habits stacking up over time. This audiobook didn’t hit me with guilt trips just laid out how meat heavy diets burn through water and land like crazy and how even small shifts in what you eat actually stack up. I’ve been edging toward more veggies anyway and this just gave me a kick not pressure just facts and some real talk on how we’re all low key shaping the world with our forks.

A Thoughtful and Empowering Perspective

This book presents an accessible and thought-provoking exploration of plant-based living, with a clear intention to inform rather than persuade. The tone is respectful and grounded, and it's refreshing that the author openly states he is not an expert. One particularly commendable aspect is the inclusion of emerging topics like lab-grown meat, which is often overlooked in mainstream discussions. The book successfully highlights how everyday choices can have wider ripple effects, empowering readers to consider the impact of their decisions.

That said, while the message of awareness is important, the omission of certain counterpoints leaves the conversation somewhat incomplete. For example, when raising animals for food, one life is taken per animal, whereas the production of crops like soy can result in the death of countless small animals and insects through habitat destruction and harvesting. Additionally, there is growing evidence supporting the benefits of a carnivore diet for individuals with autoimmune conditions. These nuances are crucial in forming a balanced view. The book is a valuable resource for initiating dialogue, but a more rounded discussion—including the potential risks of excluding animal products entirely—would enhance its long-term relevance and credibility.

Eye-Opening and Empowering!

This audiobook really surprised me—in a good way. It’s not pushy or preachy, just honest and full of thoughtful insight. The author shares the facts and lets you decide, which I appreciated. It made me think more deeply about how my food choices affect not just my health but the planet too. Whether or not you’re plant-based, this is a worthwhile listen that leaves you more informed and inspired.
