In this episode, we chat with the stellar Dr Andrew Little. Andrew works within the hospital system on the Gold Coast and devotes the majority of his workday putting people to sleep for surgery. This means Andrew regularly sees the impact of diet and lifestyle choices from the inside out. Outside of work, Andrew spends the rest of his time trying to awaken people to the benefits of a plant-based diet, not just for health but for the environmental and ethical benefits also. Andrew serves as the Queensland ambassadoc for Doctors For Nutrition and is the founder of BeHumane.

In this episode we cover:
• Andrew’s transition to a plant-based diet and the reasons for this
• His athletic endeavours and his diet while undertaking these events
• Tales from the operating theatre
• The impact of animal agriculture on human and planetary health
• Social media use for translating scientific evidence
• Raising plant-powered little ones
• Supplementation of particular nutrients, and if they are necessary for plant-based eaters
• Andrew’s BeHumane Smoothie Booster and the ethos behind the company.
