Diet culture mindset and meat restriction: A mixed methods mediation analysis
These results suggest that food moralization and meat limitation are related, and that individuals' motivations to lose weight and be healthy may mediate the relationship. Although plant-based diets have potential health and environmental benefits, framing these dietary patterns around restriction may adversely affect eaters' relationships with food. Further research with more diverse samples is needed.
