Dr Matthew NagraHeart Disease, LDL Cholesterol, Plant-based Diet, Podcasts, Protein

I am very pleased to announced I was recently interviewed by Danny Lennon of the Sigma Nutrition Podcast, which has been one of my personal favourite podcasts over the past several years! We discussed my recent review on plant-based meat alternatives and cardiovascular disease, which was published in the Canadian Journal of Cardiology this summer.

 

In this episode, we discuss:

  • The Nutrition Profiles of Plant-Based Meat Alternatives
  • How Plant-Based Meats can Impact Cardiovascular Risk Factors.
  • The Public Perception of Plant-Based Meats.
  • Practical Advice on How to Choose Healthier Plant-Based Meats.
  • Future Directions for Research.
