TODAY’S VIDEO:
In today’s video, I discuss how veganism overlaps with many conspiracy theories, including theories around alternative diets such as raw veganism. I also explore how conspiracy theories are being used to push people away from veganism and towards eating more meat.

TODAY’S VIDEO:
Recently a study came out that triggered a whole range of media articles declaring that veganism is unhealthy and that plant-based alternatives cause heart failure. However, there was a problem. This reporting completely misrepresented the study and came to conclusions that were not shown by the study whatsoever.
In particular, one article published by #TheTelegraph caught my attention. #UltraProcessedFoods
