Plant-based or meat-centered? How doctors, a rancher and celebrities split
Travis Barker describes his plant-based eating and Woody Harrelson his raw vegan living, while Mark Hyman lays out his pegan approach and discusses meat, soil and regenerative agriculture, Gabrielle Lyon discusses red meat, the environment and animal versus plant protein quality, Layne Norton compares plant and animal protein, Marie-Pierre St-Onge describes plant-forward eating and rancher Taylor Sheridan challenges the myth of harmless eating. Seeing health, protein quality, ethics and the environment argued side by side shows which parts of the debate are about nutrition and which are about values.
Calories in, calories out: settled science or misleading oversimplification?
Layne Norton defends energy balance as the governing law of weight change, while Shawn Stevenson, Jason Fung and Huberman argue that hormones, food quality and nervous-system signals change what a calorie does. Knowing where they actually disagree, and where they quietly agree, keeps you from choosing between two caricatures.
How much protein, and when: the experts' practical targets compared
Lyon, Norton, Galpin and Huberman's AMA give overlapping but not identical guidance on daily protein amounts, per-meal doses and distribution across the day. Comparing their numbers side by side shows the useful range and where the real disagreements lie.
