#9 - Glen Burrows on meat, regenerative agriculture and optimal health

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.
