Right now, two out of three of us are overweight or obese.

0:04.4

We, you know, less than 1% or 10% are metabolically healthy,

0:07.8

one out of five of our children.

0:08.8

So what happens when we take meat out

0:11.3

is a lot of times we take protein out and there's something called

0:14.8

the protein leverage hypothesis and it's essentially saying that we will overeat

increasing the percentage of really high quality protein in your diet in order to
