This is a full nutritional comparison between fake and real meat. How do chicken, pork, and steak impact the risk of heart disease compared to plant-based meat alternatives?

 

Dr. Matthew Nagra is lead author of a study analyzing the health risks and benefits of plant-based meat alternatives. He utilized data from 1970-2023 to determine the long-term risks of consuming meat compared to nonmeat options. He joins "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll with the full analysis and results.

 

The complete nutritional profile of both options are discussed in this episode:

- Saturated fat

- Protein

- Sodium

We also analyze the effects of replacing meat with meat alternatives:

Additionally, Dr. Nagra compares the fat and protein sources in meat alternatives:
