But putting your beliefs into practice isn’t always easy with so many myths circulating about protein, iron, calcium, omega’s and B12.

All of the questions discussed in this interview along with information on everything from the Vegan Food Guide, raising vegan children, vegan diets for people over fifty, sports nutrition, managing wieght, heart disease and diabetes, as well as so much more can all be found in the book, Vegan for Life.
