Is Vegetariansim Saving the Planet?

Dr. Jack Stockwell, a NUCCA Chiropractor and GAPS Practitioner in SLC, UT (866.867.5070 | ForbiddenDoctor.com | JackStockwell.com), covers the the biggest news in the health and wellness space from a holistic, naturopath perspective.First, Dr. Jack starts off with a question at his clinic — a 14 year old young lady who is being pressured by her peer group to go vegetarian, even fulling vegan. Dr. Jack makes no secret that he is a big advocate for a meat-eating diet for overall health, so he is here to address the concepts of vegetarianism, including both truths and myths of a plant-based diet. Only 11% of the land on this Earth can be farmed without deforestation, without massive irrigation, and without massive use of chemical fertilizers. Dr. Jack appreciates the approach of vegetarianism/veganism when it’s on the focus of empathy for advocating for not killing animals, but he also points out the number of animals killed (needlessly) due to grain and produce farming. It’s an insightful telling of what really goes into carnivorous eating habits over vegetarianism, as well as what true veganism actually is and why so many people get confused.Dr. Jack then goes on to discuss that it’s OK to be a vegetarian, so long as you become a student of human nutrition to ensure that you are still getting all of the nutrients the human body needs. Humans are not designed to be solely meat-eaters, nor plant-based only. We are designed to eat a variety of foods.Lastly, Doug joins Dr. Jack to further the conversation with a new focus on moving one’s memory, and the best way to boost brain power and improve our memory as it relates to keeping it active to stave off dementia and Alzheimer’s, how aroma therapy can be used to boost our mood as well as trigger memories and improve cognitive ability, and a holistic approach to brain health. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks
