FROM DETOX TO DEFICIENCY
Vegan babies have died because of deficiencies in Vegan diets.
Other Vegan babies have become brain-damaged.
Short-term, Vegan diets, especially Raw Vegan diets, can be good Detox diets for adults.
But long-term, ill-health, is a major reason why almost all Vegans become ExVegans.
And, most current Vegans cheat.
To keep myself healthy, I base my adult diet on raw fruit, vegetables, nuts, Cow’s milk, and seaweed.
BECOMING A VEGETARIAN
I became a Vegetarian in 1971, now 53 years ago, because I like animals.
There was very little readily available information back then.
And so it took me about 3 years to find the information and learn how to be a healthy Vegetarian.
A few years after I had learned how to be a healthy Vegetarian, I started having a monthly dinner at a Vegetarian Restaurant, giving talks, writing pamphlets, and calling myself The Vegetarian Information Center.
EXVEGAN
I became a Vegan in 1992.
But, returned to drinking Cow's milk in 2010 because of damage to my teeth.
Something that is very common on Vegan diets.
HEALTHY
Ill-health, is a major reason why almost all Vegans become ExVegans.
Fortunately, most ExVegans recover their health, after adding animal products to their diets.
Sadly, most ExVegans go back to eating more than 1000 animals, instead of drinking milk, or eating yoghurt, from the equivalent of just 1 Cow.
For My Own Healthy Adult Diet, I Include:
1: Fresh, raw fruit;
2: Fresh, raw or lightly cooked in water, vegetables; including, some raw green, leafy vegetables;
3: Concentrated foods like nuts, walnuts are 6% omega-3, rolled oats, potatoes, sweet potatoes;
4: Animal-products such as Cow's milk, cheese, yoghurt;
[If you cannot digest Cow's milk you could eat ocean-caught sustainable Fish]
5: Some seaweed for trace elements.
Vitamin B12
Vegetarians should consider using sublingual vitamin B12 tablets.
You let these tablets dissolve under your tongue, so that some of the Vitamin B12 is absorbed directly, into your bloodstream.
Otherwise, unless you are Vegan, and so need further supplements, just eat real food, like everyone else has, since life began.
HUMANE
The average Australian Dairy Cow produces 5,500 litres of milk per year.
If you drank 4 litres of milk per week for 80 years, you would drink 16,640 litres of milk.
That is, you would effectively be keeping 1 Dairy-Cow, for 3 years.
With hormonally-induced lactation, there is no need to get Cows pregnant, to produce milk.
And, how many animals are buried alive by ploughs, and slashed alive by harvesters, to grow crops?
And, when Vegans cheat, they can kill and abuse more animals, in just one cheating meal, of a tin of Sardines, or a plate of cooked-alive Seafood, than an honest milk-drinking Vegetarian might in a lifetime.
WATER
The Water Footprint for Cow's milk, 1020, is the same as for orange juice, 1018.
GHGs
The carbon, in the carbon dioxide Cows breathe out, and the methane Cows belch out, comes from the plants they eat.
These plants, then take this carbon back out of the air, as they grow back again.
In a continuous cycle with no net increase.
