Plant Based Briefing
Do Brain Supplements Work? Sorting The Evidence From The Marketing “For most healthy adults, brain supplements don't work. Nootropics like ginkgo biloba and lion's mane have failed to show meaningful cognitive benefit in rigorous trials. Supplements do earn their place in one situation: correcting a genuine nutrient deficiency, such as low vitamin B12 or vitamin D. Beyond that, the effect sizes are small, and sleep, movement and food do far more.” Listen to today’s episode written by Drs Ayesha & Dean Sherzai at @thebraindocs. #vegan #plantbased #plantbasedbriefing #braindocs...

Plant Based Briefing
Evidence-Based Nutrition Delivers Hope Worldwide “My journey into the whole-food plant-based (WFPB) lifestyle began with a moment of disbelief and awakening. After finishing The China Study, by Drs. T. Colin Campbell and Thomas M. Campbell, I found myself asking, “Why didn’t I learn this before?” As a physician, it was both humbling and unsettling. I felt that, up until that moment, I had only understood part of what it truly means to promote health. Yet that realization quickly turned into empowerment.” Written by Marianne Pia F.

info_outlineMAHA’s ‘Natural’ Foods Obsession Doesn’t Account for the Way We Actually Eat (Part 2)
In the 2nd half of this episode, learn how the MAHA movement’s desire to eat more “naturally” may be grounded in a need for people to feel empowered, but it’s definitely not scalable to earth this way. Reminds me of a quote from Sailesh Rao in The End of Medicine film, "When we say we'll go back to small scale farming, we're basically saying the problem is not that WE'RE eating animal foods, the problem is that the riffraff are eating animal foods. If you can make the poor people stop eating animal foods, there'll be plenty for the rich to eat animal foods. It's a very classist, colonialist argument to make. I'm just shocked that anyone would make it in this day and age."

They seek to create and sustain a sense of global urgency about the agriculture industry’s impact on the climate crisis, extraction of natural resources and systematic exploitation of the fringes of society. They're doing this through critical commentary, investigative journalism, creating resources, strengthening the journalist and advocate community, partnering with publishers and holding the media accountable when it fails to report on the most pressing issues of our time.
