I have an article about that on my blog site: "According to psychologist Melanie Joy, PhD, “Carnism is the invisible belief system, or ideology, that conditions people to eat certain animals.” It’s basically the opposite of veganism. If you’re a vegan teen, you’re likely to be spending the...

I have some advice about dealing with parents on my website (www.veganteen.net) under the Q&A section, and this video is good too: Hope it goes well!

We can't just listen to science when we agree with it, because that's what the anti-vegan people do. Vegan-supportive Yale medical school doctor and lifestyle medicine expert David Katz: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/flu-fools-fanatics-you-david-l-katz-md-mph-facpm-facp-faclm "Ordinarily...

My local grocery store carries some of these Plant Pure meals and they have good sales sometimes. They're made by the China Study Dr Colin Campbell's Plant Pure Nation movement. You can also order them online, but they aren't cheap that way...

That's awesome! I have some info on my website you may want to see, even if you're not a teenager. www.veganteen.net There's also Facebook groups and Reddit subthreads where you can connect with other vegans. To me, the hardest part isn't changing lifestyle--it's finding people to relate to!

I've been vegan since 9 and am 15 now, and my health is great! I made a website for vegan and vegan-interested teens, and you may be interested in the information there, where I have meal ideas and health information, etc. As I say on one of the Q&A questions, studies show nonvegans lack more...

"When you consume too many carrots — or sweet potatoes, pumpkins, or any other food that is similarly high in carotene — excess beta-carotene will enter the bloodstream and be stored under the skin, thus giving it a yellow, orange or golden tint. What qualifies as “too many carrots” is...

I don't know, but it seems to me that two vegan capitals of the world, Berlin and Tel Aviv, are no accident. They're both places where humanity was deeply affected by the systematic killing of humans just because there was an imaginary line put between them, like the line we make between pets...

Thanks for the comments, even though some came across as a bit of a telling off! =>Yeah, I sorta thought that too! But do you even need to lose weight from a medical point of view? Or would you like to be slimmer? My mom says being vegan (whole food plant based) doesn't mean she's as thin as...

Omg, I made a whole website just for you, lol! www.veganteen.net Look at the Q&A section, because I talk about all lots of what you ask! If you still have more questions, email me at veganteen1@gmail.com If you want to know more about me, I'm the first story on the Our Stories section. --Anna

How many of them, as SD Joe says, have never needed blood pressure medication, statin medicines, surgery, etc.? Plus, even if some individuals live long and medical-intervention-free with animal products, the public health numbers don't lie. Heart disease is the #1 killer, and animals who are...

I finally asked my dad who's a doctor about this and he said maybe lots of nuts and/or processed grains and/or alcohol? He said those could drive triglycerides up. His triglycerides and cholesterol levels fell very dramatically after we went whole food plant based vegan, so you are a bit of a...

Yay for exploring veganism! You don't even need to know any vegan recipes really to get started! It may be easier than you think. I wrote a guide for quick and pretty healthful stuff to eat that doesn't take long to prepare. How old are you?http://www.veganteen.net/easy-vegan-meals-for-busy-teens/

If you haven't found www.nutritionfacts.org yet, I highly recommend you check them out!

The gas will pass as your gut microbes adjust to give you a healthier microbiome that can digest beans. How you'd expect to change and feel depends on what kind of diet you already had. For example, if you were already eating whole foods with a little meat and dairy, now substituting plant-based...

Yes, I am learning that really is the hard part. So much for "If you build it, they will come?" Social media is where most of us spend our free time, and there's a lot of competition for that space. A video is a good idea. Maybe I could get another vegan teenager to make one for me, because I'm...

Thank you!! Ah, there's no even vegetarian restaurants in my area. But writing to a vegan magazine is a great idea that I definitely can do! My parents subscribe to VegNews so maybe I'll start there! I just googled and see there are some others too. I can't probably afford advertising, but...

Hi, I created a website for vegan and vegan-interested teens www.veganteen.net. Although several websites provide great information for vegan teens on different topics, I didn’t find any that brought high quality information together on a wide variety of topics and also showcased the videos...
