#249: Are you trapped in a meatrix? with Stuart Waldner
“We're living inside the meatrix, and we've been taught that eating animal-based food is natural, necessary and nutritious but the science I share in my book says it's none of those things.” –Stuart Waldner
In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I interview Stuart Waldner about our modern food system and all the things big ag doesn’t want you to know.
Some of the topics covered in today’s episode include:
What is the “meatrix” and how to escape it
Speciesism and how it affects our food choices
How food is political
Why animal products are so heavily marketed
The best thing that vegans can do to help others wake up to the reality that is the meatrix

More about my honored guest:
Stuart Waldner is an activist and an author who invites readers to take the red pill as they Escape the Meatrix, the title of his debut non-fiction book, written after he transitioned to a plant-based diet in 2008. As his health improved, he felt better, and the more he learned about the statistical connections between our dietary choices and the worldwide climate crises we face, the more he felt an urgency to tell other people —for our health and for the planet.
Waldner spent nearly two decades exploring Earth’s greatest wonders and connecting with sacred sites around the globe. When he’s not advocating for the health of people and the planet, he spends time playing with his dogs, cooking plant-based foods, running, and restoring his 128-year-old Victorian home.
