Reasons to go vegan.
Reasons to go vegan:
1. Animals have to live in a little cage for their whole life.
2. Millions of baby roosters are thrown in the grinder because they're useless.
3. Calves are taken away from their mum and slaughtered, so you can take the cows milk for yourself, this happens one time a year for each cow, to make sure they don't stop giving milk (they need to have calves to give milk)
4. As you can see on the image, meat industry causes global warming.
5. Because meat industry wastes so much farming grounds, veganism can stop world hunger.
6. The seas are almost empty because of overfishing, 90% of the catch is bycatch (also whales, sharks and turtles that are almost extinct) and the nettings destroy the coral reefs, that are needed for life on this earth.
7. There are kinds of food that give, almost just as much proteins ad meat does and proteins are the only thing meat gives you, if you don't believe me, look at oxes or gorillas, they're vegan and healthy, scientists also say meat causes cancer.
8. It's just wrong to let animals suffer just because you're afraid to try vegan.
If you still have a reason to not go vegan, say so.
If you don't, you should go vegan right now![spoiler]*hugs monkey*[/spoiler]

Well I have an associates in health fitness and applied science. This requires a great degree of knowledge on nutrition and the workings of the body. The vegan diet is just a way for self righteous animal rights folks to make you feel bad. Also, vegan leaves you unablanced ( diet ) and weakens your immune system. The body requires meat as a source of protein. Vegetables can only give so much. For greater detail readon.[/quote] [b] Why animal meat is so important.[/b] Animal protein contains all the essential amino acids in the right ratios. It is important for muscle mass and bone health, to name a few. Vegans don’t get any animal protein, which can have negative effects on body composition . Creatine helps form an energy reservoir in cells. Studies show that vegetarians are deficient in creatine, which has harmful effects on muscle and brain function. Carnosine is protective against various degenerative processes in the body and may protect against aging. It is found only in animal foods. Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA) is the most active form of Omega-3 fatty acids in the body and primarily found in animal foods. The plant form of Omega-3s, ALA, is inefficiently converted to DHA in the body. [b]Other reasons[/b] The greatest flaw in the vegan diet is the massive lack in B12 from non-consumption of meet. In fact, B12 deficiency is very common in vegans, one study showing that a whopping 92% of vegans are deficient in this critical nutrient. There is also no clinical or scientific evidence that shows the vegan lifestyle as being in any way superior to any other. In fact the horrible diet known as the atkins diet is considered healthier. The majority of vegan promoters use fear mongering and flat out lies to spread there practice. I decided this was more than enough to discredit vegans.
