• Flexitarianism: The diet that will save the world ... and make you live longer

Suzy Amis-Cameron . Oklahoma City, 1962. Actress and retired model, writer of The OMD (Rocaeditorial) plan, a book that proposes to stop eating meat to save the planet. Clarification: The James he names is James Cameron, her husband.

Did you like to eat meat before? But in 2012 James was a doctor, they were going to put some preventive treatment that worried us. I had the idea that a good diet could be an alternative to medication. I started to investigate and ended up watching a documentary called Forks on knife s. It was a shock . I finished the movie and went straight to the kitchen to empty the animal product cabinets. Out with everything. I guess making the decision is easy, that the bad thing is to keep it. If you are informed, if you are interested in cancer, diabetes, if you have doctors to consult with ... It is not worse than quitting smoking. Sometimes I meet people who appeal to empathy with animals to be a vegetarian, but I can hardly stop seeing meat eating naturally. The interesting thing about vegetarianism is that we can all reach the same place by different paths. Some come for moral reasons, others because they feel better this way, others because they want to lose weight, others because they want to have better sex ... My message has to do with the environment. How much more expensive is it to make the purchase following your diet? Actually, it's cheaper if you pay attention. There are nearby markets, there are fruits and vegetables that are sold as balances because they are not pretty, there are products such as rice or beans that are very cheap, so they are not expensive but require time and that is also a luxury. Well, in Spain I see very nice shops with very good food everywhere. And restaurants and hotels are becoming sensitive too. The other day I asked the pediatrician about almond milk and he told me to stop experimenting. Doctors study a little nutrition and a lot about medication. But I'm supposed to I must attend to what the pediatrician tells me, even assuming that you can be wrong. It is not your fault, it is your training. But my book also includes medical reports on the problems of milk. What hurt in 2012 that no longer hurts? The knees, had allergies ... I had the body of a mother of four children and now look at this hard gut. I can go to the gym in the morning and at night because I have plenty of energy. I said before I said that sex is improving. Yes, sir! The sex is significant. When erection problems appear in a man, it is obvious that they are the expression of a circulatory problem. What would be logical? Improve this circulatory problem through, for example, food. What is done, in practice? The patient is given a blue pill that allows him to have erections but that can bring him closer to the heart attack. Did you see Lierre Keith's book? No. She is a former vegetarian who says that the meatless diet causes health problems and that almost all vegetarians end up cheating in secret. I don't cheat. Others may, but I don't care. This is not a path of perfection. If my children want to sneak an egg because it is their form of transgression, I have no problems. It seems better to me that they take an egg to smoke grass. THE LAST QUESTION: And Jonathan Franzen's book? He says we stop pretending that you can save the environment. It's a bit pessimistic, isn't it? Well, we don't know if the situation is irreversible, but we have to do our best and be consistent. Going in a Tesla to a McDonald's is not saving the planet.
