New Year, New Diet? With campaigns like Veganuary encouraging us to ditch certain foods at every turn, many of us are committing to getting fitter by eating “healthier” but how long does that last? If you can only keep it going for a couple of weeks, you are not alone. A study found that last year many people could not stick to the new diet for longer than a few weeks. This week on Over The Farm Gate, renowned chef, presenter, food campaigner, and author, Gizzi Erskine joins us to discuss her new book ‘Restore: A Modern Guide to Sustainable Eating’ which looks at the intrinsic relationship between food and the planet, particularly the value of soil and livestock’s role in improving organic matter. Gizzi recently teamed up with Yeo Valley Organic to investigate the real carbon footprint of food, explore why British agriculture is some of the most sustainable in the world, and understand the nutritional benefits of a truly balanced diet. Your New Year diet doesn’t have to mean ditching red meat and dairy. British farmers are taking the lead in producing sustainable food that is kind to animals and the environment.Linkshttps://www.amazon.co.uk/Restore-Gizzi-Erskine/dp/0008375690/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
