What do you know about being vegan? I am a true meat eater but would love to know more about the health benefits of veganism.
Veganism is the practice of abstaining from using animal products. Which would include your diet, and often, any use of animals that isn't for companionship.
Are you Vegan? I see the benefits of veganism somewhat but my mother was vegan and she suffered health problems due to a lack of meat in her diet.
No, I like meat too much. But, I know some vegans, and I don't doubt it does help reduce some health risks, especially heart disease, but I also agree you need that protein from meat.
Yes and I believe it contributed to my mother's iron deficiency. I will not deny that there are true benefits to abstaining but I'm like you . . . I love meat too much! lol
And even though many nutritional societies approve veganism, The German Society for Nutrition actually doesn't recommend it for children, adoloscents, pregnant women or breastfeeding women.
I understand why. I believe the diet is insufficient in providing the necessary nutrients for a healthy and balanced lifestyle, although this is just MY opinion.
Well, I agree. A dietary vegan not only doesn't eat meat, but they don't eat eggs, any dairy or anything derived from an animal. That takes away all tasteful things!
I would DIE of starvation! lol My favorite foods are the items that they are not allowed to eat!
ME too! An ethical vegan is basically the same as a dietary vegan, but they also oppose the use of animals for any reason.
