Nutritionist Cláudia Viegas warned that 200 grams of meat on a plate represent an "enormity that puts health at risk." This warning comes in the context of broader evidence: excessive meat consumption, which poses a danger both to the health of individuals and to the planet. Viegas argues that it is necessary to chart an alternative path to reduce this consumption, not only in people's homes, but also in the restaurant sector. In her view, restaurants could reverse priorities on menus, no longer placing meat or fish first and giving greater prominence to vegetables and side dishes.
