Vegan Q&A

Q: What/how do I supplement my diet with vitamins etc. to be healthy. I have been eating only fish, chicken, turkey, giving great consideration to becoming total vegan. (Joanne)

A: It is important to realize that vitamins are called ?supplements? for a reason ? they should be ?back-ups? in your diet, instead of your main source of nutrition. The body processes nutrients much better and easier with real food/food sources, than it does with nutrients in pill form. If everyone?s health could be perfect just by taking a pill, then there would be no health epidemics in today?s society; since this is not realistic, it is best to receive proper nutrition by consuming a variety of wholesome foods, and by taking a multivitamin just as a ?back-up? (for those days when you don?t/can?t eat as well as you probably should, or indulge a little bit).

How does one prove to the medical community that omnivores humans are the ones that are abnormal?
Submitted by C. Elkington

The first thing I would do is stop calling ominvores abnormal. One of the main issues within society is that fact that so many of us are ready to point a finger and make an accusation rather than taking the time to educate, learn, research, and grow. By doing so we are able to better understand our family, friends, and neighbors.
