We all learned about photosynthesis in school—trees converting carbon dioxide into oxygen is vital for life on Earth. But deforestation is threatening this process, with industries like beef and soy production leading the charge. In just the past few decades, we've lost a significant portion of the world’s forests, putting both the planet and countless species at risk. Beef production alone drives deforestation five times more than any other industry, with soy (mostly used for animal feed) close behind. While some progress is being made to curb deforestation, consumers can make a difference by choosing plant-based alternatives over animal products. Not only does this help preserve our forests, but it also supports a more sustainable future. Want to know how your choices can make a difference?

Dr. Peter Attia recently sparked a debate on plant-based diets during an appearance on The School of Greatness podcast. While he acknowledged that humans don't need animal protein, he claimed that plant-based eaters need to be more careful about cooking, tracking amino acids, and consuming more protein. Dr. Matthew Nagra, a plant-based naturopathic doctor, challenged these claims, arguing that a varied plant-based diet provides adequate nutrition without the need for extra precautions. He also pointed out the health risks associated with animal proteins, questioning which diet truly "makes life easier."

Fox News correspondent Cortney Moore made some contentious claims by cautioning against eating too much hummus. claiming it could lead to gastrointestinal issues due to the chickpeas it’s made from. While it’s true that overindulgence can cause discomfort, especially for those with IBS, the idea of avoiding hummus entirely is a stretch. Hummus, when enjoyed in moderation, is a nutritious, fiber-rich dip that fits well within a balanced diet. A standard two-tablespoon serving contains just 1-2 grams of fibre and offers a good mix of protein and healthy fats. Despite the concerns raised, hummus continues to be a beloved staple, with the global market expected to reach $10 billion by 2032. From traditional dips to creative spins like pizza-flavored or beet hummus, it’s clear this versatile spread is here to stay. Want to try making your own? Check out some hummus recipes for a delicious, homemade twist! - #crforgsg #VeganSG #SGVegan #vegandiet #vegansofinstagram #vegansofig #sustainablehabits #hummus #bettertomorrow #plantbasednutrition #balancedplantdiet #choosevegan #healthydiet #veganism #plantbaseddiet #govegan #veganfoodie #foodsg #meatlessdays #vegannutrition #chooseplantbased

Some media outlets have seized on a new study to claim that veganism is detrimental to your health. The study points out that plant-based ultra-processed foods (UPFs) can be harmful to heart health. Consequently, certain sections of the media have sensationalised these findings to suggest that avoiding meat is life-threatening. This type of backlash against veganism often surfaces when research indicates that not all vegan diets are equally beneficial. However, it’s not something that vegans tend to worry about, since their primary guide for what to eat is whether or not it contains anything that came from an animal. Health-conscious vegans can easily choose a whole foods plant-based diet instead. Does this study truly warrant the dramatic responses from some media outlets that eagerly criticise veganism?

The debate over whether humans are meant to eat meat is long-standing, and the advantages of a meat-free diet continue to bolster the case for a plant-based lifestyle. Supporting the notion that humans are not naturally meat-eaters, cardiologist William C. Roberts asserts, “Although most of us conduct our lives as omnivores—consuming both animal flesh and plant foods—our characteristics align more with herbivores than carnivores.” Conversely, numerous studies, including a notable one published in Nature, argue that consuming animal products was essential for our ancestors and played a pivotal role in human evolution, particularly in developing our brains and speech. Regardless of which perspective resonates with you, the benefits of foregoing meat in today's world are substantial.
