🔥 Are plant-based meats really worse than processed animal products? In this eye-opening episode of the Pre-Vegans Podcast, host Sean A. Russell dives deep into the truth about processed foods, breaking down myths and uncovering surprising facts about the food industry.
The episode kicks off with a mailbag question from Amelia in Sydney, Australia, who asks, “How do I get enough protein on a Vegan diet?” Sean provides a quick and practical answer, debunking the common protein myth and offering easy plant-based protein sources for anyone curious about making the switch.
Next, listeners are taken on a revealing journey through the hidden world of processed meat. Many people believe plant-based alternatives are “too processed,” but this episode flips the script—exposing the shocking chemical treatments, preservatives, and artificial additives found in everyday animal products like chicken, fish, and deli meats. You’ll never look at conventional meat the same way again!
The episode wraps up with an inspiring Vegan Origin Story from Matt Frazier, founder of No Meat Athlete. From struggling to run a marathon to discovering the power of a plant-based diet, Matt shares how going Vegan transformed his performance, allowing him to qualify for the Boston Marathon and conquer ultra-endurance races—all while building a global movement for plant-based athletes.
