How does eating a plant based diet over a traditional diet decrease your risk of heart disease and other health related risks?
In: Biology
Meat has bad cholesterol and triglycerides. High levels of both causes plaque to build up in your arteries which restricts the arteries, causing the heart to have to work harder. Could also cause blockages which cause heart attacks and strokes and lots of other problems.
Not saying meat is super bad for you, it also has good things we need that plants dont have. That’s why humans are naturally omnivores.
Moderation is key.
