Joy Kong, MD, and a guest discuss why vegan diets didn't work for them. They argue that most meat studies focus on processed meat, not grass-fed options, and that how animals are raised matters more than whether you eat them.
I've done the vegan diet once for about eight months, so it wasn't long because I thought that there was enough evidence that indeed animal source products are going to be detrimental. And since then I realized that the evidence that's suggesting such is probably because of how these animal proteins were obtained, is not the fault of the animals and of what they're giving us. It's really the fault of people who are handling it, who are raising these animals. And most of the.
Meat studies were done upon people who were eating processed meats. It wasn't on people that were eating grass fed, grass, finished meat. I would love to see those studies. I think that makes a huge difference.
