In this episode of Revolution Health Radio, global nutrition scientist Ty Beal joins Chris to discuss the planetary health diet EAT-Lancet, its goals for humans and the environment, and how well it actually meets the nutrient needs of the global population. They reflect on the outdated daily recommended allowances of nutrients and the complexity of assessing nutrient needs at the population level while offering improvements on the EAT-Lancet dietary guidelines. A critic of the diet, Ty Beal, also shares what response the researchers of this proposed diet have had to his concerns about its ability to meet the nutrient demands of the population.
