  • Summary

  • Jayne Buxton, author of The Great Plant-Based Con, joins Chris on this episode of Revolution Health Radio to discuss how ethical, regenerative farming and an omnivorous diet comprised of whole foods benefits both human and planetary health. They’ll explore the higher bioavailability of nutrients in animal products, how diets that exclude animal foods can damage your health, and the reasons why so many people have coalesced around the falsehood that plant-based diets are the best way to improve human health and save the planet. In this episode, we discuss: Why Jayne felt compelled to write her book in response to headlines touting the benefits and virtues of a meat-free dietNutrients, anti-nutrients, and protein quality in animal-based versus plant-based dietsThe issues of bioavailability, absorption rates, and nutrient displacementHow a lack of scientific understanding leads to confusion about what you need to survive and thriveThe prevailing environmental arguments against consuming animal products, including misconceptions about methane, emissions, and land use, and the solutions that lie in biodiversity and regenerative agriculture Show Notes: The Great Plant-Based Con: Why Eating a Plants-only Diet Won’t Improve Your Health or Save the Planet by Jayne BuxtonJayne Buxton’s websiteFollow Jayne on Twitter @JayneReesBuxtonToxic Superfoods: How Oxalate Overload Is Making You Sick—and How to Get Better by Sally K.
