About this episode
People choose to ‘go vegan’ for a myriad of reasons, from animal welfare to environmentalism. But is veganism automatically healthier just because it's plant-based? What do people need to know before they make the whole food switch?
On this episode of On Nutrition, we talk with Dr. Dawn Mussallem, a longtime vegan and doctor of osteopathic medicine, about how a plant-based diet has helped both herself and her patients—and how it could help you.
