A diet has been developed that promises to save lives, feed 10 billion people and all without causing catastrophic damage to the planet.

Scientists have been trying to figure out how we are going to feed billions more people in the decades to come.

Their answer - "the planetary health diet" - does not completely banish meat and dairy.

But it requires an enormous shift in what we pile onto our plates and turning to foods that we barely eat.

The researchers are recommending nuts and a good helping of legumes (that's beans, chickpeas and lentils) every day instead.

There's also a major push on all fruit and veg, which should be make up half of every plate of food we eat.

Although there's a cull on "starchy vegetables" such as the humble potato or cassava which is widely eaten in Africa.

If served all up this is what an individual is allowed each day:
 Nuts - 50g a day
 Beans, chickpeas, lentils and other legumes - 75g a day
 Fish - 28g a day
 Eggs - 13g a day (so one and a bit a week)
 Meat - 14g a day of red meat and 29g a day of chicken
 Carbs - whole grains like bread and rice 232g a day and 50g a day of starchy vegetables
 Dairy - 250g - the equivalent of one glass of milk
 Vegetables (300g) and fruit (200g)
The diet has room for 31g of sugar and about 50g worth of oils like olive oil.
