Ep105. Why do the press say a vegan diet is unhealthy?

Today Holly and Molly take the oat milk challenge – and discover it's easier than they thought to make their own plant-based milk. Next week, Molly is promising to attempt her own vegan butter whilst Holly is setting herself the task of homemade feta cheese. We also discuss recent news articles that claim a vegan diet can cause cancer and is generally an unhealthy choice. Holly is off to Glastonbury and hoping to chat to fellow vegan Billie Eilish (ahem) and will be reporting back on all the amazing plant-based food there (email [email protected] if you're going too!). Tune in on Thursday to hear from Dr Melanie Joy – she will be discussing the concept of 'carnism' and how we should talk to non-vegans.Music by Purple Planet.
