Less beef, more life!
March 22, 2023If you want to improve your environmental impact and your health but you don’t feel like becoming vegetarian, chicken could be a good option for you :
- Lower fat content: Chicken tends to have less fat than beef, particularly saturated fat. This make it a healthier option for people who are concerned about their cholesterol levels and overall cardiovascular health.
- Life expectancy increased: a recent study made by researchers at University of Bergen shows that cutting red meat and transformed meat from your diet can increase your life expectancy by up to 1.9 years.
- Lower environmental impact: Raising chickens for meat generally requires fewer resources, such as land and water, than raising cows for beef. Additionally, the production of beef is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, whereas chicken production has a lower environmental impact.
