Headline – Vegan fake meats linked to heart disease, early death: study

Are plant-based (fake meat) burgers really bad for your health? What’s behind the scary headlines?

New research out a couple of weeks ago including the health effects of ultra- processed plant-based foods is attracting global attention.

And the headlines can be scary if that research and the publicity surrounding it suggests eating these foods increases your risk of heart disease, stroke or dying early.

Guest: Dr Evangeline Mantzioris – Program Director of Nutrition and Food Sciences at The University of South Australia

Presenter: Warren Andrew
