Researcher Claims Reduced Meat Consumption May Affect Brain Size

The American researcher Benjamin Bikman, known for his studies on metabolism adn insulin, has sparked a new controversy after his appearance on the podcast The Diary of a CEO. During his speech, he stated that the reduction in meat consumption could directly affect the size of the human brain, a statement that has sparked intense debates between nutrition experts and defenders of plant-based diets.

bikman asserted that “the less meat a person eats, the smaller their brain becomes” and explained that the brain “depends largely on the nutritional density provided by foods of animal origin.” According too the doctor,this lack of nutrients “it makes the brain suffer when it doesn’t get them.”
