After years of back-and-forth, and a viral appearance on the Arvind Animal Activist Podcast, Aman Duggal has finally sat down with Dr. Matthew Nagra (virtually) to debate whether a plant-exclusive (vegan) diet can support “optimal health.”
In this debate, we cover:
- How we define “health.”
- Whether plant-based diets are lacking in important nutrients.
- How the healthfulness of fish consumption compares to plant protein.
- Whether vegans are as healthy as pescatarians.
- And much more!
