Rating: - Facts Statistics Research Proof - vegan diet is the future
Parts of it are pretty heavy going - It's clear Stephen Walsh is a "databuster" rather than a new Patrick Holford but there are great "Veganism for Dummies" sections at the end of each chapter.
Pages and pages of research - Walsh must have spent years in The British Library finding all those studies.
He says you could eke out an extra 10 years of healthy living compared with following the average western diet - it's got to be worth the £7.95 for the chance of that alone!
Hopefully this book will inspire you to buy one of the excellent new healthy vegan cookbooks on Amazon (ISBN 0600611906 £7.19), visit The Vegan Society Website and make a difference to people, animals and the environment.
Rating: - No jargon just the facts.
This book is very easy to read whilst still retaining scientific elements. At the end of each chapter is a short summary making it very hard to forget what you have just read!
This book should give valuable ammunition for those considering a totally vegetarian diet (No animal products). Any worries about deficiencies are covered including the usual suspects - vitamin B12, calcium, iron and protein requirements. Stephen Walsh has worked totally without payment and thus all proceeds go the the Vegan Society. After reading this book that annoying question "So what do you eat?", should be heard less and less (hopefully!)
There's little else currently on the market as comprehensive as this.
