	International Vegetarian Union - 11th World Vegetarian Congress 1947 - Veganism
		DONALD WATSON (Leicester), said that the vegan believed that if they were to be true emancipators of animals they must renounce absolutely their traditional and conceited attitude that they had the right to use them to serve their needs.
		If the vegan ideal of non-exploitation were generally adopted it would be the greatest peaceful revolution ever known, abolishing vast industries and establishing new ones in the better interests of men and animals alike.
		The vegan certainly need not go short of starch, sugar, vitamins, fats, mineral salts or roughage, for plants were rich in all these factors.

	Veganism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Vegans typically have high levels of vitamin C in their diets, which may account for the rarity of anaemia amongst them.
		The results, though, were more complex: the vegan subjects lost bone density at the same rate as their vegetarian and non-vegetarian peers; when put on a weight-bearing exercise regimen, the vegan subjects built bone density at a significantly higher rate than the other subjects.
		Vegans are recommended to eat foods with vegan B12 added (such as fortified soy milk, fortified margarines, or many commercial breakfast cereals), certain brands of nutritional yeast, or take dietary supplements (a good multivitamin will likely include B12 in sufficient quantities).

	Famous Vegans, adherents of Veganism
		Vegans desire to have Veganism be accepted as a natural, logical, universal development for everybody, and not seen as simply yet another "alternative religion." By avoiding identification as a religion, Vegan leaders believe they will have more access to public forums such as schools and government programs which may not allow specifically religious material.
		Veganism differs from some of these movements in that it is not explicitly tied to an established world religion (such as the way that Kabbalah is the mystical science of Judaism, or Falun Gong is a reform movement within Chinese traditional religion).
		Leaving aside lifestyle-only vegans who are principally adherents of other faiths, the religiously committed core Vegans who disagree about whether or not to identify Veganism as a religion are otherwise indistinguishable from each other with regards to their practice of and belief in Veganism.

	!ce: Vegetarianism/Veganism
		Vegans who do not eat foods or pills fortified with synthetic vitamin D and with little exposure to the sun's ultraviolet radiation, e.g., who don’t expose their extremities for at least 15-30 minutes per day, or those living at latitudes close to the poles, are vulnerable to Vitamin D deficiencies.
		Veganism as a secular movement is a modern idea, a reaction to the imposition of suffering on non-human animals.
		Veganism is more environmentally sustainable than a diet based around animal products, and may improve the conditions of low income people in and out of the global south by freeing more food for human consumption.

	Veganism
		Vegan, as defined by The Vegan Society, is "a way of living which seeks to exclude, as far as possible and practical, all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose.
		Vegan is pronounced "vee gun." Some people distinguish between vegan and pure vegetarian, considering the pure vegetarian one who eats no animal flesh, no dairy products, or no eggs, and follows a strict plant-based diet for dietary reasons only.
		While vegans follow a diet consisting of plant-based foods only, they are further committed to a philosophy that respects animal life and the ecology of the planet.

	FAQ about veganism
		A vegan is a strict vegetarian who eliminates, as much as possible, all forms of cruelty to animals in the diet and in daily life.
		Vegans avoid eggs because egg production results in inhumane conditions in which laying hens live, the eventual deaths of laying hens after their egg production declines, and the deaths of millions of male chicks each year because they are useless to the industry.
		Vegans do their part in reducing these practices by purchasing cleaning and personal hygiene items whose manufacturers state that they are free from animal derivatives and not tested on animals.

	Veganism: Vegan Diet for Animal Rights: Healthy Veganism - Downbound.com
		Veganism as a secular movement is a modern idea, as a reaction to the exploitation of nature, including imposing unnecessary suffering on non-human animals.
		The primary ethical argument against veganism attacks the concept of "indirect responsibility", stating that it is impossible to avoid all harm: animals are sometimes killed in the process of producing vegan food, whether by accident during harvest or intentionally, as pest control.
		Vegans also by and large promote conservationist environmental and energy policies and sustainable agriculture, not least because such policies are seen as steps toward achieving the aims of veganism on a grander scale, in part by reducing the amount of inefficiently mass-produced meat.

	Vegan Values
		It is clear that there are a significant number of Vegans whose deep feelings of respect and reverence for all life has acquired the force of conviction, a core of principled moral philosophy that not only characterizes, but shapes and informs their lives.
		For these Vegans, the ruling of the Court categorically denies them a kind of "civil rights" protection, challenges the legitimacy of their beliefs, and raises a storm of issues beyond the scope of this brief commentary.
		Veganism has entrusted its image- the perception of its principles and ideals- to a new "mainstream" of vegetarian practice, with all its limits and constraints.

	The vegan controversy: Veganism - healthy or harmful; ethical, environmentally sound, or not?
		When discussing the health benefits of veganism, most supporters are quick to point out that non-animal based diets tend to be high in fiber, nutrient-rich, cholesterol-free, and low fat [1].
		For example, strict vegans take issue with the fact that in order to extract honey from a hive, some of the bees are inevitably injured or killed.
		In light of population pressures, many vegans contend that it is irresponsible to produce meat when, in fact, more people could be fed on a vegan diet than on a meat-based one [6].

	Vegetarianism and animal rights
		MIM approaches the issue of the environment from the standpoint of the group of people in the world with no property--"nothing to lose but their chains." That group of people is called the proletariat.
		MIM condemns inter-cultural veganism outreach of this sort, because preventing war is more important than promoting veganism as far the environment is concerned.
		The existing vegans will be allowed to persuade others to become vegan, and the vegans will rest assured that no one will be profiting in the millions or billions of dollars from animal slaughter.

		A vegan however, does not eat or wear anything that has required using a animal.
		Therefore vegans, in addition to abstaining from meat, don't eat milk or cheese, don't eat eggs or honey, and don't wear leather, wool or fur.
		Also, all laying hens, regardless of the system they are used in, still undergo the stress of transportation and slaughter when their egg laying declines.

		Also, it would seem hypocritical for a non-vegan to be speaking out against practices the consequences of which he or she continues to gain benefit from in the form of products that they consume with apparent ease and pleasure.
		The source of this revulsion is, as in Veganism, compassion for the person who has died combined with the impossibility of divorcing conceptually the flesh which must be eaten from its source.
		The key difference with Vegans is that they have the courage to view honestly and rationally their feelings of compassion not only for other humans but for other animals also.

		They've admitted that being a vegan is punishment, by sending a letter to the NY Prison Commissioner telling him that "Feeding inmates exclusively vegan food sends a message to inmates and the public that our society isn't molly-coddling them..." Funny, funny PETA people, hoisted by their own celery stick, as it were.
		Sure, you can be anemic and vegan, or fat and vegan, or fat and meat-eating, or diabetic and kosher, or any other combination of things.
		I get sick and tired of hearing this ridiculous stereotyping bullshit about "tree-huggers" and Vegans, spewed by people who speak with the tone and "moral authority" of knowing that they are "normal" carnivores while Vegans and vegetarians are a bunch of liberal anemic whackos.

	Raw Food Veganism and Protein Myth
		We here at Rawganique.com think that the raw vegan diet is a very sensible diet for our fragile planet, especially in light of the challenges faced by planet in the past 100 years as a result of chemicalization of our world in the name of technological/scientific progress.
		We can start by eating only vegan organic foods, wearing only hemp and organic cotton clothes and shoes, and living a sustainable life of renewable and replenishment (reuse; recycle; grow your own; plant fruit trees; become paper via hemp paper).
		For our own health as well as that of our planet, there really isn't a better choice than a diet of organic, vegan, and raw living foods--except of course a life full of hemp (a wonder of a plant: read all about hemp in Hemp Facts).

		I told him I believed it was possible according to all the research I'd done into the benefits of living a Vegan life.
		I said I needed 12 weeks to lose the weight and get my Vegan diet hitting on all cylinders since this was not only a diet change, but a total re-manipulation of my lifestyle.

	Activism and Veganism -- Vegan Outreach
		The way veganism is presented to a potential vegan is of major importance.
		Most vegans have multiple motivations, but primary motivations often distinguish vegans, such as "health vegans" or "spiritual/religious vegans." I see another type of distinction as being useful: "practical vegans" and "symbolic vegans." Practical vegans avoid the specific products for which animals are bred, raised, and eventually slaughtered.
		Symbolic vegans, in addition to avoiding those products, go beyond this to some level (e.g., avoiding sugar but not water) so as to be able to make a statement (about solidarity with the animals, personal purity, etc.).
