Story
Almost every day we are bombarded with the seemingly incontrovertible message that we must reduce our consumption of meat and dairy—or eliminate them from our diets altogether. But what if the pervasive message that the plant-based diet will improve our health and save the planet is misleading—or even false? What if removing animal foods from our diet is a serious threat to human health, and a red herring in the fight against climate change.

Story
Worry about cholesterol. Avoid red meat. Eat whole grains. Could it all be a lie? We live in an era of health hype and nutrition propaganda, and we are suffering for it. Decades of avoiding egg yolks, choosing margarine over butter, and replacing the real foods of our ancestors with low-fat, processed, packaged substitutes have left us with an obesity epidemic, ever-rising rates of chronic disease, and, above all, total confusion about what to eat and why.

Story
The secret to becoming healthier, losing weight, living an energetic life, and healing the planet has nothing to do with counting calories or feeling deprived - the key is re‑learning how to eat like a human. This means finding food that is as nutrient-dense as possible. In Eat Like a Human, archaeologist and chef Dr. Bill Schindler draws on cutting-edge science and a lifetime of research to explain how nutrient density and bioavailability are the cornerstones of a healthy diet.

Publisher's Summary
We’ve been told that a vegetarian diet can feed the hungry, honor the animals, and save the planet. Lierre Keith believed in that plant-based diet and spent twenty years as a vegan. But in The Vegetarian Myth, she argues that we’ve been led astray - not by our longings for a just and sustainable world, but by our ignorance.
The truth is that agriculture is a relentless assault against the planet, and more of the same won’t save us. In service to annual grains, humans have devastated prairies and forests, driven countless species extinct, altered the climate, and destroyed the topsoil - the basis of life itself. Keith argues that if we are to save this planet, our food must be an act of profound and abiding repair: it must come from inside living communities, not be imposed across them. Part memoir, part nutritional primer, and part political manifesto, The Vegetarian Myth will challenge everything you thought you knew about food politics.

Way too preachy
I struggled to listen. Tried to keep an open mind but her Past Vegetarian Mannerisms show through, not to mention her male bashing.

A must read! It's time to wake up!
Amazing! Eye opening! Full of facts that should be taught during our school years if we want to thrive as a species. I'm a meat eater and this book is certainly not only for vegetarians.

good food info.
the vegetarian and vegan info is interesting. especially coming from a recovering vegan. worth listening to.
But that is interspersed with very strong opinions about the fact that my being male makes me an automatic plague on the whole world and all the poor female victims on Earth.
but I did not listen to this for that. I wanted to hear why a former vegan and soy eater and turned to meat . On that front. this is a worthwhile read.

A world-shattering revelation
This book addresses so many myths promoted by the agricultural industry, but also explores humanity's relationship with plants and animals in a way that has forever changed the way I look at the world. This would be a tough pill to swallow for Vegans, but if you care about the planet, you need to hear this.
