Why we need to be careful reading news headlines about nutrition

In Episode 82 I return from a small break and record the first ‘solo’ episode of the Plant Proof Podcast. Yes, that’s right, the first episode without a guest. Just you and me.

In this episode I cover:

Why I took a short break from the podcast
The first iteration of a new direction for the show
My time in Bali
Sydney’s newest plant based restaurant Eden Bondi
The recent media headlines about vegans needing to be careful about choline deficiency and headlines about vegetarians and stroke risk. For both of these I walk through what was reported and what the science actually says.

This slightly new format which is something I intend to do between every guest episode going forward.

Full blog I wrote on Choline with references can be read here:Should vegans be worried about Choline deficiency and brain health?

SHARE/REVIEW:

If you haven’t left a review for the show on iTunes yet and have 1-2 minutes it would be greatly appreciated. The reviews ultimately help the show reach more people – and that’s what inspires me to continue bringing you more episodes (it tells me that people are actually enjoying the show and the messages are not falling on deaf ears haha).

Hope you enjoy the episode friends. If you have any comments or questions, I would love to hear from you. The best way is to connect with me on Instagram (@plant_proof).

Plant Proof X Journey Retreat

In case you are looking for a week away – I have decided to host a second plant based retreat, limited to 40-50 guests, this year with Journey Retreats October 4-10 in Bali. For more information, or to reserve your spot, visit the Plant Proof X Journey Retreats booking page. The retreats are an incredible week – a mix of exercise, connecting with like minded people, guest speakers, cooking demonstrations, delicious plant based meals and snacks, massages and plenty of down time to relax by the pool or explore the local area.
