‘meat-eaters have significantly higher blood pressure than vegetarians – vegans’..

‘meat-eaters have significantly higher blood pressure than vegetarians – vegans’..

(excerpt…)

Nearly half of Americans have high blood pressure – according to new standards from the American College of Cardiology and other associations.

The problem for most people is food – especially a diet based on roast beef – chicken wings and other familiar animal-based staples.

Many of us love meat.

But meat doesn’t love us back.

stupid things people say to vegans..

stupid things people say to vegans..

(excerpt..)

‘I get incredibly frustrated with parents who get upset if you talk about giving plant-based food to children.

I’ve heard everything from it ‘not being nutritional enough’ to ‘you shouldn’t force your political beliefs on a child’ to it being ‘child abuse’!

‘This is especially ironic when coming from parents who frequently give their children McDonalds and KFC – as if that would be preferential to broccoli and beans’.

‘Also – when you point out that the earth we live on is literally dying because of the environmental impact of animal farming and meat-eaters respond with something along the lines of ‘I guess that’s a good point – but I could never stop eating steak – it’s just too delicious’.

Do they want steak or a planet for their grandchildren to live on?’
