In terms of organ meats, there definitely are studies looking at nutritional quality of organ meats
你提到動物內臟，肯定有人研究過內臟的營養價值
As I explained though, the problem is that a lot of the organ meats, that would conventionally be studied, are ones that you would not want to eat
我也講過了，內臟的價值肯定有，但問題是現在的內臟并不是傳統的內臟
because they are the filtration system for the animal
內臟是動物的過濾系統
And so when your animal has had antibiotics and pesticides and hormones raging through the system
現在的動物體內有很多抗生素，農藥和激素
that area becomes the concentrated collection area for that
造成內臟成為毒素的聚集地
So eating that, you're getting the highest dose of those things
吃這種內臟顯然是有害的
By contrast, if you eat an animal that is free range and has been raised organically, so with none of these inputs
相比之下，有機放養的動物肉就沒有這些有害物質
that part of the body, the organ meats can sometimes be a little bit richer in fat here, but they are actually very nutritious
這些動物的內臟雖然有時脂肪稍微多點，但營養價值同樣很高
And you know in United States we throw out
要知道，美國丟了很多內臟
not only do we eat more meat per capita than anywhere else in the planet, but we throw out huge parts of the animal
美國人不僅吃的肉是世界上最多的，丟掉的部分也是世界最多的
and these are parts of the animal that if we grew them in a healthy way
如果這些動物是用健康方式養殖
and ate them in a healthy way, would feed many more people with meat as a spice
這些本來是可以健康食用的，作為配菜食用
So I really do think it's something that we need to start thinking about
我認為這確實是我們要開始考慮的問題了
Not just for health reasons, but for sustainability reasons
除了健康原因，還有環境可持續性原因
If you're gonna eat an animal, think about eating the whole animal
吃動物時，考慮吃全動物
I'm mean, with chickens, we don't even eat the brown meat
比如雞，我們甚至不吃較深色的肉
People just want breast. We throw out huge parts of chicken
人們只要胸脯肉，丟掉雞的大部分
