ITV This Morning: Author Jayne Buxton under fire for claiming vegan diet is 'a con'

A diet expert has come under fire from viewers of ITV's The Morning for claiming vegan diets are 'a con' on the show.

The ITV chat show hosted a segment on Tuesday morning's episode (June 14) to discuss the argument of whether a vegan diet is really the best option for our bodies and the planet. Jayne Buxton, author of The Great Plant-Based Con, appeared on the show to argue how diets that exclude animal foods can be damaging to your health.

Speaking to presenters Holly and Phil, she said: “They’re being marketed as quality healthy alternatives when they’re not.” She added how some companies have come under fire for claiming it is a better diet for the environment, which is not always the case.
