Tips for Adopting a Plant-Based Diet with Dr. Matthew Nagra


Listen Later

Many people are considering plant-based diets for health, environmental, or ethical purposes. 

So this week I brought my friend Dr. Matthew Nagra to the show to discuss plant-based diets. Dr. Nagra is a long-time Vegan and also a Naturopathic Doctor who is very well versed in the science of this topic and does a great job of presenting the research about plant-based diets accurately. 

On this episode we discuss: 

  • Main reasons why one would consider adopting a plant-based diet
  • Pros and cons of adopting a plant-based diet
  • Nutrients of concern when going plant-based 
  • How to ensure you're meeting your nutrient needs on a plant-based diet 
  • Other considerations when going plant-based 

and more.
