Why You Should Listen

In this conversation, Dr. Greger and I talk about:

  • The simple rules he has developed to help people eat as healthy as possible.

  • Processed foods and plant-based meats, and whether or not they are beneficial to individual health.

  • What makes certain foods “better” than others and what consumers really need to look out for on ingredient labels.

  • Additionally, Dr. Greger provides some critical advice for food producers and provides tips on how plant-based products can be improved to optimize their health benefits.
