      Try not to feel too guilty, Rhonda. Just remember all of the opposition you ever faced being a vegetarian. In eighteen years, how many times have you been asked how do you get your protein, iron and nutrients, far too many I’d guess.
      Just make sure you’re taking vitamins B₁₂ and D regularly (fortified foods alone are never enough), it’s no good being a sick vegan!

    I’m a clinician-scientist in health care at a world class university and professional speaker related to vegan nutrition. What you say so eloquently, logically and clearly in 15 1/2 minutes, is remarkable. I am 74 years old and aspire to be just like you, when I grow up! You are truly an inspiration to me and so many others. The resistance in so-called ‘health’ care as well as the public, is beyond belief. Your interview with psychologist Dr. Joy was exceptional. Her short video (along with yours), on ‘The Secret Reason We Eat Meat’ should be on prime time TV. It is an exceptional sociological analysis. Do know I am turning many others to your work regarding the moral side of veganism. I particularly liked Dr. Joy’s conceptualization of ‘carnism’, too, and the value system that meat-eaters buy into. It well articulates that meat eaters have a strong belief system, too, regarding it is ‘acceptable’ to multilateral, abuse, and slaughter animals, not only vegans who have a belief system that supports personal health and well-being, planetary health and animal welfare…. Thank you. Upward and onward…you give me hope.

    I've been watching you for a few months now and am currently in Veganuary. It isn't going to stop there. I love cooking and am really enjoying the new dishes (we were already not eating huge amounts of meat but I do love butter!) Excited to start my new journey!

    You strike at the heart of the argument, encapsulate the completeness of the message which needs to be articulated to the masses. So very well done Ed.xx

    This really moved me. Although I already take efforts to be a vegan for the animals, videos like these reinforce and strengthen my belief and motivate me to do better for these innocent animals ❤ Thank you Ed as the message of veganism I first got was from your videos ! Keep going on ! there surely will be a time we will make it a better place for animals and humans alike .❤ Peace ✌🏻

    The only question is how was I not vegan earlier... I guess sometimes we’re all just innocent kids that don’t know any better... it took me into my 30s to realize and go vegan. I think it’s about teaching people to know better.
