Episode 175: Simon Hill & The Proof Is In The Plants
“Based on today’s data about human health and planetary health, a plant rich diet makes the most sense. It’s really the only way forward.”
On this week’s episode of the Eat Green Make Green Podcast I sit down with the legendary Simon Hill. Simon Hill is an Australian Nutritionist and Physiotherapist and a leading voice in the world of nutrition science. We talk about how an ex-Australian football player became obsessed with nutrition science, why science led Simon to adopting a plant-based diet, the new science around LDL cholesterol and Apo B, how sleep affects your blood glucose control, the science on debated foods like chicken, fish, and eggs, why all plants have all essential amino acids, why animal protein and plant protein make no difference on muscle growth, his take on macros, why plant predominant diets are our best bet for long term health, the affect of exercise on our microbiome, and how Simon goes about achieving goals.
