Animal Nutrition

Like most people, I was born into a meat-eating family. Our daily meals consisted of meat and dairy. What I thought was a lot of healthy fresh foods like dairy products, eggs, meat, etc., were consumed. Though naturally, I love animals. After studying the vegan diet when I was 14, I decided to change my life and have been vegan ever since. 

In Hungry Beautiful Animals, philosopher Matthew C. Halteman shows us how—despite all the forces arrayed against going vegan—we can create an abundant life for everyone without using animals for food. It might seem that moral rectitude or environmental judgement should do the trick, but they can’t. Going vegan must be about flourishing, for all life. Shame and blame don’t lead to flourishing. We must do it with joy instead.

De entre dichas pautas, conocidas como «dietas basadas en plantas» (plant-based diets), destacan el vegetarianismo y el veganismo.

Or would they recommend half a chicken and a fresh rabbit? In Work Wonders, Dr. Lonsdale looks at the dietary needs of dogs from a dog’s perspective, taking account of Nature’s teachings, easily understood science and sound common sense.
