In their new book, Carnivore-ish: 125 Protein-Rich Recipes to Boost Your Health and Build Muscle, Ashleigh VanHouten and Beth Lipton cut through the clutter and dogma to provide an accessible and informative resource about adding more healthy protein to your meals. This book busts the myths and fearmongering and explains how and why to include these foods, which taste delicious, provide satisfaction, and can help you look and feel the way you want to.

It Takes Guts is more than a cookbook: it's about education and understanding that the way we eat is important. Our choices matter, and we should seek to know why a particular food is beneficial for us, the ecosystem, and the animals, and how our food choices fit into the larger food industry and community in which we are a part. Through interviews with experts, more than a few hilarious and thoughtful anecdotes, and of course, delicious recipes, you'll learn the cultural, environmental, and health benefits of adding a little 'variety meat' to your diet.
