Veganism does not destroy the body, utter rubbish. With any change in diet you have to gradually do it over a six month period gradually reducing meat, fish, eggs and milk products and really should ask your doctor first to make sure the diet change will not course you problems especially if you have any health problems.

In her case it's obvious she was eating junk foods rich in sugar!! and must not have had a balanced diet. Plus if she was eating a good vegan diet you would never feel the urge to snack all the time between meals, which she claims she had to do. I very rarely eat between meals.

Also, total rubbish when she says you can't get amino acids from a vegan diet and had to buy lots of supplements. For example I dry roast Pumpkin seeds, Sunflower seeds and Sesame seeds together then add a little soy sauce (only takes two minutes) and that combination gives you ALL the amino acids the body needs.

I've been a Vegan since mid 1974 and never had any problem at all. Very good health. Of course there will always be some people who change their diet to quickly and eat the wrong combination of foods. It's better to refrain from high processed foods and that includes meat eaters, plus any food high in sugar. I never add any sugar or salt to food as you get enough naturally from a good combination of food. It can take people a longtime for there body to adjust when changing from a meat based diet. I would recommend gradually going onto a vegetarian diet then gradually switching to a vegan diet.

A note of caution, be very careful what others say, ALWAYS! do plenty research yourself. Just because one person says Vegan diet is bad or good for you means nothing.

Also, there are many Americans and some British who claim to be doctors when in fact they just bought a fake certificate stating they are a doctor of... without doing any medical training or exams.

'Investors flee M&S amid fears of declining footfall'


Morgan Stanley cut Marks & Spencer, the high-street stalwart, to “equal weight”. The analysts like a few things about the company: its latest results were “solid”; recent profit guidance from management was a bit better than the City had expected; and the company should do well as jabbed-up shoppers return to the high street.

I suggest you watch the following videos:



Veganism is by far much better for your health, providing you have a balanced diet containing all the vitamins & minerals the body and brain needs. Only Vitamin B12 plus recent research shows that both meat eaters and Vegans etc., need to take daily Vitamin D3 even in sunny climates.

Well worth watching videos with Dr Michael Greger who is the Physician, bestselling author, and speaker who advocates a plant-based, whole foods diet to reverse and prevent, fatal disease and illness.

The great British banger and the EU's porky piesThe falling safety standards of imported EU food versus Aussie beef and US chicken?© Brexit Facts4EU.Org 2021Latest EU rules mean the pork they export to the UK contains "abscesses, pus and TB material", say EU's own safety inspectorsIn recent weeks the National Farmers' Union and others have been gaining significant media coverage in their outrage over the possibility that Brexit Britain might in the future import more of its food from countries such as Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.One of their key arguments relates to food safety. They claim that the British consumer will be inundated with unsafe meat. Facts4EU.Org has therefore looked at the EU's recent lowering of safety standards for the far higher quantities of imported meat from the EU which we have been eating for years.If the EU wants to portray itself as a responsible regulator of food safety standards, it might be thought that they would be strengthening food safety regulations in order to protect the public, not rowing back on them. Not so, according to the European Working Community for Food Inspection and Consumer Protection (EFWFC) which represents the EU's meat inspectors.The EU has actually lowered its food safety requirements"Consumers are being exposed to an "avoidable risk" of disease after a reduction of official controls in food inspections of pig and poultry carcasses across the EU. Diseased meat is being eaten by consumers in the UK and EU, including pus from abscesses and tuberculosis lesions from pigs' heads."- The European Working Community for Food Inspection and Consumer Protection (EFWFC), 15 Sept 2020The EU has introduced new measures for checking pigs entering the food chain. This reduced the requirement for checking pig meat from a thorough inspection to a visual-only inspection. A visual-only inspection misses underlying diseases. In the words of Ron Spellman, the Deputy Secretary of the European Working Community for Food Inspection and Consumer Protection (EFWFC) which represents EU meat inspectors:-"Inspectors stopped cutting lymph nodes in pigs' heads, which are known to contain abscesses and tuberculosis lesions. Under previous systems, the pigs' head would have been rejected for food, but now the meat is minced to make sausages and meat pies, spreading the pus from the abscesses and TB material throughout these products.""I don't think you can prove it's safe to feed people abscesses, pus and TB material."Mr Spelman also speculated on the reasons for the EU's reduction in its food safety requirements:"These changes are motivated not by science or a desire to protect the consumer but are politically motivated to give the [EU] meat industry what they want: the reductions and eventual removal of official independent meat inspection."BREXIT FACTS4EU.ORG SUMMARYEU27's meat related exports to the UK in 2020UK's imports of EU27 beef : £1.2 billionUK's imports of EU27 pork : £2.3 billionUK's imports of EU27 poultry : £1.5 billionUK's imports of EU27 lamb : £0.1 billionUK's imports of EU27 dairy : £2.5 billionTotal : £7.6 billion of meat-related imports from the EU in 2020Source: European Commission Agridata for 2020.We are eating EU27 meatEvery year in the UK around eight million pigs are slaughtered for meat and the UK also imports pork meat from EU27 countries, partly because of British consumers' preference for certain cuts such as pork chops. Meat from pigs' heads is recovered by specialised boning plants and goes into pies, sausages and other processed foods. Millions of us consume this meat many times each year.?The UK's farming sector rears millions of animals of all kinds for meat consumption, but the British consumer still eats over a quarter of this meat from the EU27 countries, and from further afield. According to the British Meat Processors Association, the pro-EU trade body:-"Popular cuts of meat still need to be imported to meet the UK's needs. Meat processing companies rely on imports for 26% of their supply, with the rest coming from UK farms."The size of the food safety problemWe looked at the Food Standards Agency's (FSA) report from January of last year. Here is what they said about 'foodborne diseases' - which most people would refer to as 'food poisoning':-"We estimate that there were 2.4 million cases of foodborne disease in the UK in 2018, with 222,000 GP presentations and 16,400 hospital admissions."- "Foodborne Disease Estimates for the United Kingdom in 2018", FSA Report Jan 2020By any measure this effect on public health from 2.4 million cases of 'foodborne diseases' in one year is highly significant.So what does the EU Commission have to say about all of this?The EU Commission's justification for the reduction in meat inspections is that the cutting up of pig carcasses as part of meat inspections increases the risk of harmful bacteria spreading onto meat.A spokesperson for the European commission said: "Any meat with lesions indicating an animal disease such as TB, or abscesses, or any pathological or organoleptic changes, must be considered as unfit for human consumption and not be placed on the market."The meat inspectors would doubtless agree with these worthy sentiments. However the problem as they see it is that the EU has reduced its safety requirements and ordered visual-only inspections of pigs. As the European Working Community for Food Inspection and Consumer Protection says: "There's no way to see those little abscesses, little tuberculosis lesions, without cutting those lymph nodes."OBSERVATIONSIn the case of food safety standards above it seems that the EU claims one thing and does another."You are what you eat", as the saying goes. If that is the case then we are now worried about all the barbecued pork sausages we would normally consume over the summer. And we will never look at a pork pie in quite the same way again.

"Kiev made with soya protein "

Where the soybean goes wrong?
Here at the Gerson Institute, we feel the positive aspects of the soybean are overshadowed by their potential for harm. Soybeans in fact contain a large number of dangerous substances.
