If your diet consists of fatty meat, the risks of getting cancer and cardiovascular diseases are higher. As well, the more we eat, the more is produced. The production of meat contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, which intensify global warming, especially when it comes to ruminants (cows, sheep). So, should we stop eating meat to save our environment while staying healthy? The answer is NO, but it is proposed that we reduce red meat intake below 50 g/day.

By embracing sustainable living, we adopt practices that contribute to the well-being of the environment, society, and economy.
The idea of a sustainable diet was established in 2010.
A sustainable diet is considered to be a diet that resembles a nutritionally healthy diet.
Sustainability goes beyond admiration; it is a commitment to maintaining the delicate balance between our species and the planet.
Several scientists are “defending” meat consumption, replying that red meat is the source of essential nutrients.
