Alex Ruani: Would you say it is wise to avoid any kind of meat? Or just red meat?

Valter Longo: This is a difficult question to answer. If most people did that, they would probably become malnourished. However, if someone thinks they may enjoy a plant-based diet, they can follow it with the help of a nutritionist or doctor to make sure they do not become malnourished. A plant-based diet is by far the best for longevity and disease prevention.

IMPORTANT! A plant-based diet is not a synonym of vegetarianism. It just means that most of the foods you eat come from plant sources. We teach this in our Advanced Clinical Weight Loss Certification. Also, our Dietary Supplements Certification teaches health professionals how to avoid malnourishment either through whole foods or supplements.
