from Awakening Aphrodite · host Amy Fournier

Hey friends, welcome back to Awakening Aphrodite!Today, we’re diving into a hot topic—is eating meat really bad for you and the planet? My guest, Jayne Buxton, is an investigative journalist and author of The Great Plant-Based Con, a book packed with research that challenges what we’ve been told about plant-based diets.We get into nutrient deficiencies, the “vegan honeymoon” effect, and the real environmental impact of meat vs. plants. If you or someone you know is a vegetarian for health or ethical reasons, this is a must-listen!We also talk about media myths, sustainability, and what most people don’t realize about modern farming. My goal isn’t to tell you what to eat—I just want you to have the right information to make the best choices for yourself.Products Mentioned In This Episode:https://amyfournier.com/earthing-2/For All Amy's Approved Products: https://amyfournier.com/recommended-products/Final Audio Timestamps:00:00 Intro10:06 Jane Buxton’s Background11:20 The Great Plant-Based Con12:39 Shifts In Veganism & Public Perception16:07 Compassion & Food Choices28:39 Challenges In Investigative Writing39:36 Vitamin Deficiencies & Brain Health42:54 Mental Health & Diet46:04 Veganism & Environmental Impact01:00:54 Respect For Food & Final ThoughtsIf you enjoyed this episode, be sure to check out:⁠165.
