La Trobe University research shows Australians would prefer to embrace many other green options to help the environment before giving up meat and becoming vegetarians.

  • A study shows Australians would rather take other actions to help the environment than give up meat.

  • Participants cite a lack of vegetarian options when dining out, despite Australia having more than ever, as a barrier to the diet.

  • Researchers hope the study will highlight reasons behind people’s reluctance to reduce meat consumption.

    If a vegan diet is well-planned and includes necessary supplements like B12 and DHA, it can offer health benefits such as a reduced risk of heart disease, certain cancers, obesity, and type 2 diabetes compared to typical Western diets that are high in processed meat and saturated fat. These benefits are significant and supported by a substantial body of research.

    DHA is the omega 3 found in fish, FYI
