PLANETARY HEALTH DIET

 A

Here’s a concise bullet-point gist of the article you shared:

  • A “planetary health diet” could potentially prevent 40,000 deaths per day globally.

  • The diet focuses on plant-based foods, limiting meat and dairy, and reducing ultra-processed foods.

  • Adopting it could also lower global food-related greenhouse gas emissions, helping tackle climate change.

  • Current diets in many regions are unhealthy and environmentally unsustainable, contributing to deaths and environmental harm.

  • The diet includes:

    • More vegetables, fruits, legumes, nuts, and whole grains

    • Less red meat, processed meat, added sugars, and starchy foods

  • Health benefits: reduces deaths from heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cancer.

  • The diet also emphasizes reducing food waste and improving food distribution.

  • Researchers suggest this diet is affordable, providing one portion of vegetables, fruit, or protein per day, though some regions may need adjustment.

If you want, I can also make an even shorter 3–4 line ultra-condensed version suitable for quick notes. Do you want me to do that?
