I should also answer using animals in any way is not a part of vegan choices any people make.

Everything is a choice, nothing is requirement that must be done, and what is reasonably possible is part of vegan choices.

There are tasty meals as alternatives, and I can be helpful.

There would not be more cows bred to meet the demand that is continuing that.

Visiting the slaughterhouse?

It is all connected, this can be found to be true. Demand runs factory farming continually. Chickens are held captive until slaughtered however it is done and they value their eggs. Do you really not eat other meat? No meat is making you healthier than you could be with a variety of whole foods all from plants. And there are tasty meals, that I know about, this way. I can be a source of helpful information for that, but there are other ways of having information for that.

I am not in favor of abortions either. So you would have total disagreement with me.

What that I said are you disagreeing with?

The China Study, besides many more studies, Forks Over Knives, https://www.forksoverknives.com/, there was nothing in my communication against cooking, it was pointing out we and any people are not natural predators, which do not need cooking. Uncooked vegetables and fruits are available to us, any meat that would be desired is necessarily cooked, unlike what natural predators would eat. I made my point, with studies backing up what is healthiest.

The whole foods from plants are so very healthy for us. As an example I made a meal with quinoa, green lentils, flaxseeds, pumpkin seeds, cashews, almonds, butternut squash and squash seeds, a little broccoli, celery, cabbage, guacamole, jackfruit, medium salsa and hummus, and various seasonings, a bit of dried seaweed, and triscuit woven crackers were added. I try now for at least as much variety in cooked meals, with use of whole foods from plants.

The site has little to do with the way that I eat, which I speak for, with whole foods which in my case is all from plants. It is a healthy way really, and with the ways I quickly learned I have delicious food that I enjoy more than food I had before. I am older, so of course I was wise with doing these things.

Not misinformation, I have it from doctors, the authors of the Forks Over Knives Plan, see the documentary Forks Over Knives, and there is a site https://www.forksoverknives.com/ It isn’t good to threaten with an accusation of misinformation without asking. I actually keep citing the same sources over and over here and with having neglected it this time here I would not have thought it was a great deal. Apparently then it is never the same people who see any post from me. I will take that into account. I speak for eating a great variety of vegetables, that is actually what is so healthy. This has abundant sources, which are recent.

It is true they were not vegan, and I put in copied text of what was in a post I saw. There was no such thing as veganism until the middle of the last century, there were no vegans before that. Vegetarians were known as Pythagoreans earlier. Einstein was definitely vegetarian the last few years of his life.

I do not care for it as I prefer a lot of other things I prefer more. That is all. I do not mean it tastes bad or is not good for you, it’s fine that others will have it among their food, and if they offer me their food with it wanting me to eat it I would not turn it down. But I live on my own and make my own food.

I only make food for myself

I use beans or lentils still, too. I do not really use tofu though, but do not find any fault for using it.

There are a number of studies. The China Study that I remember by name was huge, but there are more, all indicating this. Here is a link to an article about a very recent one, any further ones are not hard to find online. https://www.eatingwell.com/plant-based-diet-multimorbidity-study-11796092

If you can grow any plants for food at all, grow those, it does make significant difference. Remember animals being used for food need to be fed, this whole way is using a lot more food up, with what more is needing to grown, there is only more incidental harm with this way. The whole food was I have is good. I approach the 30 vegetables a week which is really so much healthier by getting more from produce in all that I buy, generally it is otherwise just what I will drink (non-alcoholic) like green tea, coffee, and fruit juice, the pasta and the quinoa I buy, hummus, medium salsa, and jackfruit, jars of pickle chips, jars of olives, some rice milk, almond milk, cashew milk, or soy milk, and cereal (usually raisin bran for warmer days and oatmeal for cooler days), whole grain bread, and complete cookies (Lenny & Larry’s). That really is almost all, there are seasonings and very occasional things like seaweed, not so often, I still get what I might for supplemental B12, and minerals anyone might need to supplement, and more so at a higher age, that would concern me.

I would hope for connection with others who are vegan here. I see many are seeing my posts labeled to vegan who are not themselves vegan. So I give information through posts that relate to being vegan and that it is of importance.

Why consider that? I am busy but manage to come here about this one time in the week. I really want others to see they should be thinking to be vegan. If they need answers, I will be back by the next week to respond to them. Some do just need that help. Yes I do gather information for sharing.
