In Episode #9 of The Health Club Tom McAdam speaks with Glen Burrows. Glen is the founder of The Ethical Butcher, an online marketplace connecting consumers with grass-fed, regeneratively farmed meat.
We discuss:
- The ethical, environmental and health implications of meat and the way it is produced
- Why the common environmental arguments against meat might be flawed
- What regenerative animal farming and holistic livestock management are and how they could help mitigate climate change and sequester carbon
- Glen's personal story: how he became a vegetarian after studying food science only to return to meat 25 years later.
- The health benefits of high-quality animal products and why the evidence linking meat to disease risk is shaky
You can find the Ethical Butcher online at ethicalbutcher.co.uk and on Instagram @ethicalbutcher. We hope you enjoy the conversation.
