“People feel poorly because they are nourished by foods you wouldn’t feed to your dog or cat. The rich western diet is full of fat, sugar, cholesterol, salt, animal protein - all the wrong foods for people.” - Dr. John McDougall #wholefoods #wslf #starchsolution

Another study also concludes that vegetarians, especially vegans, have less chance of developing cancer.

“Vegan diet seems to confer lower risk for overall and female-specific cancer compared to other dietary patterns. The lacto-ovo-vegetarian diets seem to confer protection from cancers of the gastrointestinal tract.”

Non vegan: being vegan is expensive

All of us cherish our beliefs. They are, to a degree, self-defining. When someone comes along who challenges our belief system as insufficiently well-based – or who, like Socrates, merely asks embarrassing questions that we haven’t thought of, or demonstrates that we’ve swept key underlying assumptions under the rug – it becomes much more than a search for knowledge. It feels like a personal assault.
