Diet for healthy people, healthy planet too costly for some (Daily Mail)

November 09, 2019


Daily Mail reported on the EAT-Lancet diet that recommends people double their intake of nuts, fruit, vegetables, and legumes, and eat half as much meat and sugar to prevent millions of early deaths, cut greenhouse gas emissions and preserve land, water, and biodiversity. However, in a co-authored study, Affordability of the EAT-Lancet reference diet: a global analysis, IFPRI and the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy (Tufts) found that it would cost an average US$2.84 (S$3.86) per head per day.  Republished in London Free TimesVancouver Sun, Ottawa Sun, Toronto Sun, Winnepeg Sun, Edmonton Sun, Calgary Sun, ABS-CBN News, Canada.com, Today Online.
