Att det är bra för hälsan att äta mycket grönsaker, fullkorn och baljväxter är välkänt. Mer överraskande är att personer som äter klimatvänligt också uppvisar näringsvärden som är bättre än forskarna hade väntat sig. Det visar en ny studie vid Lunds universitet. EAT-Lancet-kosten är en global kostvägledning som är framtagen för att främja både människors hälsa och en hållbar planet. Den utgår från

Studien från Umeå universitet och Lun
