An Invitation to Peace, Empathy, and Scientific Collaboration in Nutrition and Human Healing
Advocating plant-based diets is admirable, but defaming or shaming respected doctors and scientists with different perspectives undermines scientific integrity. Here’s my caring and independent perspective.
The conversation around what we eat has rarely been calm. Every decade brings new research, new recommendations, and new ideologies. Nutrition science turned into a battleground of moral superiority.
For example, the debate surrounding the EAT-Lancet reports, both the original 2019 version and the upcoming 2025 update, has evolved into more than a discussion about nutrition.
It has become a social movement that risks losing the essence of scientific dialogue: respect for evidence and for those who dedicate their lives to producing it. I feel very sorry for the affected medical doctors, distinguished scientists, and caring thought leaders in the health sector.
