The Vegan Starter Kit, Everything You Need to Know About Plant-Based Eating

Description

Leading medical authority Neal Barnard, MD, FACC, shows you how to put the power of a vegan diet to work with an easy, step-by-step approach. Many are looking to adopt a more healthful diet but may have questions, like: How do I plan a vegan meal? Is protein an issue? How do I make it work if I don't cook? Which are the best choices at restaurants? In The Vegan Starter Kit Dr. Neal Barnard, perhaps the world's most respected authority on vegan diets, answers your questions and gives you everything you need to put vegan power to work. You'll learn how to ensure complete nutrition, and get quick-reference charts for calcium sources, tips for modifying your favorite recipes, and examples of quick and easy meals. Everything you need for permanent weight control and dramatically better health is presented. The Vegan Starter Kit also includes information on healthy eating in childhood, pregnancy, and other stages of life, and a complete set of basic meals, holiday feasts, snacks, among many other features. This is a short book that does not go into detail about the things will miss out on like salmonella infections from inhumane cattle fed lot abuses, oyster toxins and a host of other animal based hazards. For that kind of detail you can consult authorities like Rudolf Ballentine. NEAL BARNARD, MD, FACC, is a faculty member of the George Washington University School of Medicine and president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. Dr. Barnard’s research, funded by the US government, revolutionized the dietary approach to type 2 diabetes. In 2015, he was named a fellow of the American College of Cardiology, and in 2016, he received the American College of Lifestyle Medicine’s Trailblazer Award.
