Gary Brecka argues that plant-based foods like Doritos, beer, and sugary cereals aren't automatically healthy just because they lack meat. Many vegan options are heavily processed with fillers, dyes, and preservatives. Check ingredient labels on plant-based alternatives to avoid chemical-heavy products.
What's the worst nutrition advice you've ever heard that made you want to throw a steak at someone? Um, I guess the worst advice that I've ever heard is that because something is not meat, it's healthy for you. I don't want to attack vegans or vegetarians. I think that people can do fine on a vegan or vegetarian diet, but just because something is not meat or not animal-based does not mean that it's healthy for you. Think about being a vegan, for example. You can have beer, you can have Doritos, you can have flour, wheat, pasta, grains, cereals. You can have all the sugar that you want. It's not to say that people that are on diets eat like that. But just because it's not meat does not necessarily mean it's healthy. Next time you're in a grocery store, pick up a non-burger and read the ingredients on the back of that. Chemically laden, full of fillers, dyes, additives, preservatives, and thickening agents. Those are not things we want to put in our body.
