My friends’ medical conditions. There may well be other ailments I am unaware of - there almost certainly will be. High blood pressure Erectile dysfunction, heart disease Arthritis (hip replacement) Arthritis (knee replacement), heart problems, possible Alzheimer’s Hypertension Atrial...

Hi folks It's my contention that the act of going vegan makes a person more compassionate. I have this theory - which is not just mine, I've seen/heard it online, etc - that the meat that people eat come from animals in full flight/fight mode, with high levels of adrenaline and associated...

Hi Jay - looks great. Love it!

These are wonderful. Love them all!

The Tofurky ham hasn't reached these shores, yet, AFAIK, but I'll keep my eyes peeled. We (my GD and I) are having the tofurkey roast tomorrow, for our Xmas dinner. I'm also making homemade haggis wrapped in seitan inside a bread crust for our other meals over the holidays. My omnivore son has...

Hi Dostoievski You have my sympathies - both for the cancer and the fact that you live in such a benighted country! On my blog, I've collected loads of vegan info as I come across it:http://nobreadisanisland.blogspot.co.uk/2017/08/vegan-info-as-it-comes-my-way.html Early 0n in that post I...

I've always liked the bloke, but on this occasion I found him self-indulgent, whiney and dismissive. Self’s sneering tone and sense of superiority came as a bit of a surprise to me - and a disappointment. Addressing, I assume, the vegan community, he asks, “…what exactly do you think about when...

Porridge - more than you probably want to know: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2011/nov/10/how-to-cook-perfect-porridge My recipe is: 40g rolled oats - 39p/500g in Lidl 200g water (but your almond milk would be fine) 2 minutes in the microwave, then I add 1 dessertspoon...

OK, thanks for your efforts, folks.:)

Hi hippyman I just searched for 'transitioning to veganism' online, and a host of suggested sites came up. There is so much help out there. One suggestion - I'd go for big bowl of porridge to start the day with. Oats are so good for you - and they're pretty cheap. Have that with some dried...

Now it's there on the forum index page - Meat from Spain.

I clicked on the Violife cheese thread - and there was a meat advert at the top of the page. Something about delivering meat B2B, but I didn't examine it closely. Not good!

Just to say the Violife pizza cheese melts - and tastes fine. But I use it sparingly along with nooch. Sainsbury's grated cheddar-type is convenient, also. Reminds me, I bought a load of cashew nuts last week - intend to make my own cheese when I get time.

Hi nino I truly sympathise with you. I was lucky, I found it easy to become vegan, although it took me around 2 years to transition through a vegetarian phase, so I went into it gradually. I hope you'll come back to veganism soon - here's a link which may help you...

Hi Davy, I've been vegan for 14 years, and my advice would be - do your research. There are many reputable plant-based doctors out there who can help. My first goto would be Dr Michael Greger: nutrition facts.org But there's also Drs Neal Barnard, John McDougall, Esselstyn, T. Colin Campbell and...

Thanks, Roger. That's a good point. I'm thinking that the one minute target would have more impact=more interest=more money raised. I'm with you on the walks and the nap - I'll pass on the digging, though! :) B&W

Hi folks 3 and a half years ago, I couldn't do a single press up - I could get in position, but was unable to dip at all. I was given the advice to start off on the floor and push myself up. I found that the way in, and they've been a major part of my regular exercise routine ever since -...

Hi Jamie Call me a cock-eyed optimist (and many do!), but there are just so many straws in the wind. Only today I heard of three new vegan supermarkets opening in Paris: http://vegnews.com/articles/page.do?pageId=9710&catId=1 (I'm aware that a vegan supermarket closed in Germany - apparently...

Hi Earthling I've planted a few seeds - can't claim any more than that, really - with Dr Michael Greger's video 'How not to die'. Made some of my friends think. I'll catch up with them again in October and find out if anyone has made any changes. The big thing that's holding at least a couple...

Hi everybody - 14yr vegan here, very keen to spread the message. I spend a lot of time online, and was feeling the need to interact with other vegans. I'm on twitter, always try to join in the various vegan hours, but outside those times, I feel there's something missing. I've never been so...
