Why Meat Eaters Have Lower Rates Of Anxiety And Depression Than Vegans
We’ve been lectured a lot in recent years – by friends, social media connections, and even Microsoft billionaires – on how veganism is the future and how limiting our consumption of meat (or cutting it out altogether) will be overwhelmingly beneficial for the environment, climate change, etc., etc.

But there’s staunch opposition to this, and rightfully so. Not only does meat provide irreplicable benefits to our bodies and our brains, but there’s little evidence to support the theory that a plant-based or vegan diet is somehow better for the planet. In fact, if anything, a vegan diet has a much larger, more significant environmental footprint than one which relies on animal products.
