Participants in the clinical feeding trial conducted by a research team in the Dey lab from South Dakota State University were provided with a low processed breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks for two, eight-week periods. The study used a randomized crossover design in which all participants consumed both diets: a meat-protein diet with lean pork and a plant-based diet. Findings concluded that consumption of low processed food resulted in a number of health benefits.
