Some members of the nutrition world, medical community, scientific field and general public struggle with the idea of eating a whole-foods, plant-based diet. In this part 1 of a 3-part series, join Dan Cho as he interviews Dr. Neeta Hillman, an internal medicine doctor from the United States, and Beverley Haines, a registered dietitian from British Columbia, Canada, on the benefits of eating a plant-based diet. Do I need to cut out both meat and dairy? Can I occasionally eat a little bit of meat and dairy? Can we really get all of our nutrients from eating plant-based foods? We know that red meat is bad, but can I eat chicken and fish? We’ll explore the answers to these common plant-based eating questions in this episode!
