In terms of organ meats, there definitely are studies looking at nutritional quality of organ meats
你提到动物内脏，肯定有人研究过内脏的营养价值
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
我也讲过了，内脏的价值肯定有，但问题是现在的内脏并不是传统的内脏
because they are the filtration system for the animal
内脏是动物的过滤系统
And so when your animal has had antibiotics and pesticides and hormones raging through the system
现在的动物体内有很多抗生素，农药和激素
that area becomes the concentrated collection area for that
造成内脏成为毒素的聚集地
So eating that, you're getting the highest dose of those things
吃这种内脏显然是有害的
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，有机放养的动物肉就没有这些有害物质
that part of the body, the organ meats can sometimes be a little bit richer in fat here, but they are actually very nutritious
这些动物的内脏虽然有时脂肪稍微多点，但营养价值同样很高
And you know in United States we throw out
要知道，美国丢了很多内脏
not only do we eat more meat per capita than anywhere else in the planet, but we throw out huge parts of the animal
美国人不仅吃的肉是世界上最多的，丢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
如果这些动物是用健康方式养殖
and ate them in a healthy way, would feed many more people with meat as a spice
这些本来是可以健康食用的，作为配菜食用
So I really do think it's something that we need to start thinking about
我认为这确实是我们要开始考虑的问题了
Not just for health reasons, but for sustainability reasons
除了健康原因，还有环境可持续性原因
If you're gonna eat an animal, think about eating the whole animal
吃动物时，考虑吃全动物
I'm mean, with chickens, we don't even eat the brown meat
比如鸡，我们甚至不吃较深色的肉
People just want breast. We throw out huge parts of chicken
人们只要胸脯肉，丢掉鸡的大部分
