This week on the Discover Ag podcast, Nat and Tara introduce a new summer series called "Debunking Series" where they will debunk negative documentaries about agriculture and food. In this episode they discuss the documentary "Game Changers" with the help of Lauren Twigg, a registered and licensed dietician with a background in farming, who provides her expertise on nutrition. Nat and Tara, along with Lauren, share their first impressions of the documentary and discuss the premise of the plant-based diet. Points mentioned: not discussing the benefits of animal protein and only showcasing high-intensity athletes who have a team of experts planning their diets. nutrient deficiencies that can occur in a plant-based diet and the importance of nutrition literacy. the documentary cherry-picks data and narratives that work for its premise, rather than looking at the bigger picture. Lauren emphasizes the power of plants in supporting one's health, but also advocates for a well-balanced diet that includes animal products. In our next episode, we'll be discussing the documentary "Beyond Impossible" and interviewing the man behind the movie, Vinnie Tortorich. Don't miss it!
