| 137: Plant Based Diet vs Animal Based: Which is Better? | 03 Apr 2024 | 00:38:07 | |
As a naturopathic doctor and certified nutritional counselor, I'm excited to dive deep into the debate around plant-based versus animal-based diets for optimal heart health.

In this episode, I'll explore the anatomical and physiological evidence that suggests humans are designed to thrive on a diet that includes both plant and animal-based foods. I'll also unpack the crucial role that nutrients like vitamins A, D, E, and B12 play in supporting a healthy heart, and why getting these from whole food sources is so important. By the end, you'll have a clear roadmap for nourishing your heart and optimizing your health through personalized dietary choices.
