Global Food Security: Livestock: On our plates or eating at our table? A new analysis of the feed/food debate
PDF | Livestock contribute to food security by supplying essential macro- and micro-nutrients, providing manure and draught power, and generating income. But they also consume food edible by humans and graze on pastures that could be used for crop production. Livestock, especially...

Carrying capacity of U.S. agricultural land: Ten diet scenarios
Carrying capacity of U.S. agricultural land: Ten diet scenarios
Strategies for environmental sustainability and global food security must account for dietary change. Using a biophysical simulation model we calculated human carrying capacity under ten diet scenarios. The scenarios included two reference diets based on actual consumption and eight “Healthy Diet” scenarios that complied with nutritional recommendations but varied in the level of meat content. We considered the U.S. agricultural land base and accounted for losses, processing conversions, livestock feed needs, suitability of land for crops or grazing, and land productivity. Annual per capita...

Mortality from different causes associated with meat, heme iron, nitrates, and nitrites in the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study: population based cohort study
Objective To determine the association of different types of meat intake and meat associated compounds with overall and cause specific mortality. Design Population based cohort study. Setting Baseline dietary data of the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study (prospective cohort of the general population from six states and two metropolitan areas in the US) and 16 year follow-up data until 31 December 2011. Participants 536 969 AARP members aged 50-71 at baseline. Exposures Intake of total meat, processed and unprocessed red meat (beef, lamb, and pork) and white meat (poultry and fish), heme iron, ...

Update (2016): Positionspapier der Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics
Die „Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics“ hat ihr Positionspapier zu vegetarischen Ernährungsformen überarbeitet. Die 11-seitige Publikation aus dem "Journal of the Academy of Nutrition“ betont die gesundheitlichen Vorteile vegetarischer und veganer Ernährung: Vielen Krankheiten könne vorgebeugt werden; Vegetarier_innen und Veganer_innen haben ein niedrigeres Risiko für die Haupt-Todesursachen in Industrieländern. Zudem erfülle eine gut geplante vegane Ernährung die Empfehlungen für gesunde Ernährung. Sie sei für jede Lebensphase geeignet – auch für Kinder, Schwangere und Stillende.
