According to Consumer Reports, 48 million people become sick each year from eating meats that are tainted with salmonella, E, Coli, and other contaminants and poultry is the biggest culprit. In fact, 98% of the chicken they tested harbored bacteria that could make you sick. 

Meat also contains cholesterol and saturated fat and contributes to American’s top killers: heart attacks, diabetes, various types of cancer, and Alzheimer’s. The Mayo Clinic recommends that everyone eat plant-based at least once per week. No time like the present to make a healthier choice!
