Diets that harm the planet also raise the risk of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes

Diets that place greater pressure on the environment, high in meat and low in plant foods, were linked to higher risks of cancer, coronary heart disease, and type 2 diabetes in over 34,000 French adults. Sustainable, plant-rich diets were associated with better health and lower environmental impact.
