...Vegan Detox Meal Plan By Monica Sethi Datta, eHow Contributor A vegan detox diet is designed to eliminate toxins from your body and help you lose weight. A vegan diet means eating no animal products or products that come from animals such as milk. The detox meal plan consists of fruits, vegetables, fresh juices and tea. A vegan detox plan is healthy, but can be low in protein and other vitamins. Vegan Detox Food Guideline 1. A vegan diet excludes all forms of animal products. A Guide to Eating Vegan Foods (see Resource 1) provides a detailed guideline of what foods you can eat while on a vegan diet. Meat: All meat, poultry and seafood is prohibited while on the vegan detox meal plan. Substitutes permitted include products made from bean curds, tofu, soybeans, grains or nuts. Plant products: Fruits and vegetables make up the majority of a vegan detox. Try to choose organic produce. You can eat the fruits and vegetables whole or have fresh fruit juices. Beans, nuts and legumes: All beans, nuts, and legumes are part of a vegan detox meal plan, including peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter or any other nut butter. Beans and legumes are crucial to a vegan diet to assure adequate protein intake.

Soy and rice milk are good substitutes for milk and margarine is a common substitute for butter as it is made from soybean or sunflower...

...Why are Record Numbers of People Now Going Vegan? While researching I have found out many new pieces of information which I knew nothing about previously. These newly acquired knowledge has affected my way of living. I was a vegetarian and I drank milk and used other dairy products (anything made from animals). However, now I prevent myself from using such products after knowing more about how animals are being forced to give milk and how they are being slaughtered for their flesh. While researching, I read some journals, books, magazines, and watched documentaries. I got emotional and I was affected and disturbed by what I read and watched. My goal in this paper is to make it clear that we can live without meat and flesh but we cannot live...

...29 April 2013 Going Vegetarian In today’s fast-paced, modern and practical society people are becoming more health conscious. This includes trying to choose the best available options for a beneficial lifestyle. They are becoming more concerned these days about the increasing health risks of a meat-based diet. On the other hand, others have taken a step further and believed that animal cruelty involved in killing animals and using them for their products is inhumane and should be outlawed. Vegetarianism used to be an unusual lifestyle choice. Today it is becoming more common and accepted by mainstream society. While there are many reasons for choosing a vegetarian diet, the most important are health reasons, environmental and economic reasons, and, above all, ethical reasons. Well as my sustainability project, a lifestyle change that is good for me and good for the planet, I decided to go vegetarian for a week meaning no meat, no gelatin, or fish. I knew I wasn’t going to have any trouble with fish because I don’t like seafood but meat, I didn’t know if I could last a whole week. March 11 was the first day I started the experiment and of course I had no trouble at all since it was the first day. I actually felt really good going into this and … It felt like nothing on the second day also and found myself just getting another César salad. From the looks of it, I thought I might actually be able to do this and accomplish my goal by not eating any meat. But I spoke too...

...to us. Just the other day I went to a sit down restaurant and ordered chicken wings. Obviously there are laws protecting people from getting tainted food, but the source of this food was unknown to me and could of had something wrong with it. Luckily I am fine and I survived that meal, but the process of how that food got to my plate and how that animal was treated before it was slaughtered to become my food was unknown to me. Even though farm animals such as chickens, pigs, and cows are most likely going to be killed for food purposes, they are living things and do deserve to live a decent life before they become our food. The opposition might argue that there are too many people in this world who eat meat, so these means are necessary to feed all the people. But if the meat eating society were to look closely at how these animals were treated before becoming our food in most cases they would not see a very good life and even would be disgusted with the environments as well as the treatment of these animals. Due to this fact the way in which animals are treated before and while being slaughtered needs to be altered to a more humane way. In the past, animals were treated almost as part of the family, since they usually were the family’s only source of food or means of getting money. This is still...

...Eating meat is unethical In this few pages I’m going to discuss the topical subject of vegetarianism, whether it is or it isn’t a life choice to consider and why. I invite you here to consider that we have conscience of our acts and therefore we know the consequences they have in ourselves and the world; also we can live healthy, full lives without eating meat and finally it is not coherent or logic to defend certain animals while killing others. In a society where the constant battle is for freedom and rights of living creatures, I believe these aforementioned issues are things we should each consider seriously since they say a lot about ourselves; they are in the very core of who we are and the actions we are willing to take to build a better, more compassionate society. I’m going to defend why eating meat is unethical, not something entirely natural nor something we should encourage. To begin with, let’s clarify the concept of ethics. There are way too many definitions of this term, but I’m going to work with the one that is taken from the word ethos (Greek) which means “character” or “custom” and defines some appropriated morals (norms) to follow in a society, but also as individuals; they define what is virtuous and good and what is not in some way (not to be confused with rules and laws, which involves more of a legal and inflexible context). There are several fields of application for ethics and I’m going to support what I say by bringing up the utilitarian and environmental...

...of large scaled industrialized and intensive agriculture that is focused on profit from animals by keeping them indoors with restricted mobility, according to Merriam Webster dictionary. People all over the world have different views on this point and I plan on making sure my point is very clear throughout this paper. I want give reasons why factory farming should be shut down and then give my opinion on the matter. Factory farm companies are ambitious and want to increase their profits, make the quota for the demand, and still make a great profit. Animals are mistreated and are in pain because the companies only care about money. The cruelty done to these kind animals is something people should be ashamed of. Every year, millions of pregnant pigs also called sows are...

...important to help the greater cause, such as the community. Blake Mycoskie is a true definition of an entrepreneur. He has succeeded in all the business ventures he pursued and has become more successful with every business. Blake is not afraid to take risks and has tried to make sure that he puts his best foot forth to make sure his businesses become successful. His first project was opening a laundry service in college for all the college students and it very well which led to it expanding to other colleges. Blake then sold the laundry company and then started a music company that aimed at country music stars, with the success of that he sold that company also. Blake has a great business mind and he has great ideas to generate profit that’s why his businesses were successful. Mycoskie raised 2 million dollars with a reality show which they got the money from celebrities but it was later bought by Rupert Murdoch that too was a success. After those business ventures, another one came about and this time he partnered with a traffic school to help promote Driver’s Education Direct and he also created a marketing company to promote Driver’s Education Direct. Blake Mycoskie makes very wise business choices that have led him to the point that he is today. His leadership skills are absolutely intriguing because he makes his businesses successful and knows when to let go of the business because he has reached his profitable goal for that business. Blake Mycoskie is better known for his company...

...Factory Farming Abstract Factory farming is the mass production of pigs, chickens, turkeys, and cows to be slaughtered and made into food. Many activists and organizations have attempted to reduce the problem of factory farming, but it is still a long way from being fixed. Factory farms are used to produce everyday products like bacon, pork, steak, chicken nuggets, milk, cheese, etc. The cost of buying a burger at a local McDonalds is around one to three dollars. If companies were forced by legislation and government officials to practice proper farming techniques, the price of your beloved McDonald’s hamburger will be sure to rise. This could cause a brief stage of net losses for food manufacturing companies. I think it is mandatory to incur these extra expenses for the sake of humanity and animal rights. A small loss in profits is far less important than the pain and suffering these animals have to deal with on a daily basis. In this research paper I will discuss the ethical dilemmas and the conditions of the factory farms, as well as solutions to the problem of animals not having the proper rights. Main Points Animals come in all different shapes and sizes. Society debates how to classify some animals. Scientist view animals as operating equipment. Businessmen see them as commodities. Religious advocates classify them as God’s gift to us. And the majority of Americans see them as food. In America we cannot keep our minds off of cheap tasty...

...Many people argue against hunting for the population of deer and other wildlife. People who argue against hunting because it is unsafe, unnecessary, it’s unfair to taxpayers because some lands managed for hunting are purchased with tax dollars even though about 95% of Americans do not even hunt. People who are for hunting argue that hunting is safe, effective, necessary, and they also say that it’s better to kill the deer then to let them starve. Some also argue that hunting is a tradition or a ritual for some people and help for a good bonding experience as well. This debate may never end but the two sides will still continue to debate about safety and cost but with never agree with each other with the hunting of animals. Next I will be speaking about the animal right about fur. Animals get captured in traps or raised on fur farms, or even just killed in order for people to get their fur. Even though people don’t wear fur as much today there is still about 1 billion rabbits and 50 million other animals including foxes, seals, etc. are killed and used for their fur. Lots of animals are even skinned alive. This is such a cruel thing for these animals and they have a right to be left alone for them to live with their fur which was made to keep them warm and many other...
