Summary

In Episode #164, a throwback to Episode #88, we hear Seb Alex’s thoughts on the ethics of eating animal-based foods. As you know, I usually like to keep the topics of nutrition and ethics separate, but at the same time I think it’s important for us to be aware of the impact our food choices have on the world around us, including the non-human animals we share the planet with.   I hope you enjoy the episode. Be sure to keep an eye out for Seb’s new podcast launching soon.
