Are you finished with extreme dietary recommendations? I find it somewhat remarkable that after decades of discovering extreme diets that eliminate certain food groups are unhealthy at best and harmful at worst, a new extremist recommendation is unveiled with fanfare. In my new blog, I explain exactly why it’s misguided and call for the return of balance!
The term “factory farm” (I call it the “double F bomb”) has become a catch-all for everything that some people perceive as being wrong with modern agriculture. A recent New York Times op-ed contains much misinformation about today’s farming technology, the healthfulness of meat, and the environmental impact of producing food from animals.
Animal antibiotics have been used by farmers for decades to make food safer and prevent animal suffering. Using them responsibly also lessens the burden on our planet.
