Are plant-based diets actually bad for longevity, or is the science being misunderstood?

In this episode, we take a closer look at a recent aging and nutrition study that has been making waves in the media and examine how its findings are being framed. Rather than relying on headlines, we break down what the research actually measured, who the study focused on, and what important context is often left out.

This is not medical advice. The discussion is based on reviewing the study itself, understanding how observational research works, and comparing the conclusions being reported with established nutrition guidance.

We explore why factors like age, frailty, undernutrition, and overall health matter more than dietary labels, and why this research does not prove that eating meat is required to live longer.

If you’ve seen claims questioning plant-based diets and longevity, this episode offers clarity, nuance, and a more grounded way to interpret the evidence.

Listen with curiosity, think critically, and join the conversation.
