Description: AIR DATE: April 5, 2012 at 7PM ETFEATURED EXPERT: Denise MingerFEATURED TOPIC: “The Fallacy Of Vegan/Vegetarian Diets” Who within the Paleo/low-carb health blogosphere doesn't love the work that Denise Minger has done over the past few years? Little did she know when she created her "Raw Food SOS" blog that it would gain such a strong following thanks to a series of posts critically examining the claims made in the infamous T. Colin Campbell book The China Study touted by vegans and vegetarians as irrefutable evidence that a plant-based diet is optimal for human health. As a former vegan herself, Denise has a lot of compassion for the struggles they go through attempting to reconcile their personal convictions about not eating meat and the reality of what that is doing to their health. She's shared her story with me previously on "The Livin' La Vida Low-Carb Show" podcast in Episode 405 and Episode 430. Now her debut book release entitled Death by Food Pyramid is set for late 2012 and if you haven't already read her China Study blog posts then they are an absolute MUST-READ! Denise knows all the arguments that vegans and vegetarians make for eating the way they do. But she also is abundantly aware of the flaws in logic that people who adhere to plant-based diets tend to succumb to. That's why she's here to help address the fallacy of the vegan/vegetarian way of eating and what might be a better option for them to improve their health. She will also be sharing more about this topic in her lecture on the upcoming 5th Annual Low-Carb Cruise in May 2012.
