Eamonn Holmes has opened up on becoming more “conscious” of his diet in recent years, admitting he is “getting older”.

Discussing his lifestyle on GB News, the Breakfast anchor admitted to considering eating “less meat” due to his “fondness” of the animals.

Broadcaster Christopher Biggins admitted to his own struggles with getting older and eating meat, telling Eamonn: “I do like a sausage, but I have gone off meat per se, funnily enough. “As I’m getting older, I think it takes a lot of eating a piece of meat, if you pardon the expression.”

Discussing her vegetarian lifestyle, broadcaster Dawn Neesom said that a lot of vegetarian ready meals are “processed” and got “a lot of salt and sugar” in them. Neesom told the panel: “I don’t eat meat, the husband eats meat, and it’s not an issue. But also, a lot of vegetarian meals are certainly processed. “They’ve got a load of salt and fat and sugar in them, so they’re actually worse for you than eating a lean bit of meat.” Responding to Neesom, Eamonn called for all processed microwave meals to be “banned” entirely.
