Fruits and veggies in moderation are good for dogs. What's bad for dogs are grains. Whole, raw flesh is best.

Sorry, this is just plain untrue. The B-12 in our instentines is way too far down to be bioavailable.

I don't know why it is such a big deal to accept that vegans must supplement B-12. Like I said...

I do not think cow secretions are fit for human consumption. Casein has been associated with higher incidences of certain cancers. Most of the world is lactose-intolerant, and I believe that is for a...

I cannot stress enough how important taking B-12 is for vegans. I know someone at a vegetarian board I frequent who had two vegan friends who got desperately ill from B-12 deficiency because they...

If you are planning to stay raw vegan during pregancy, I suggest a B-12 and Vit D supplement, as well as flax seed oil for those omega-3's.

Well I'm sure if you're under 100 lbs at 5'4, you appear pretty darn thin. I used to be close to 100 at 5'5 and I looked emaciated (suffering from an ED).

Isn't that pretty significantly clinically underweight?:eek:

I greatly enjoyed Iamacranberry's musings and links on this thread.

I supplement B-12, maybe about twice a week. Better safe than sorry. Besides even below average B-12 (that is not low enough to be a medical emergency) can cause brain shrinkage (which can put you at...

I find it hard to believe any respectable doctor worth his salt would say anything like that.

More than likely, your uncle misinterpreted what he said in a self-serving way, perhaps because he...

Feeding your cat a vegan diet is feline abuse.

Cats cannot get adequate nutrition from plant foods. That is the general consensus in the medical profession based on a cat's digestive system. They...

Agreed.

I find it unbelievable that one has to lie to keep their child from consuming milk.

It should be sufficient to say: "My child is vegan. Therefore he/she does not consume milk."

What...

Neither. It means you're feeding him something he is allergic to.

I have a nephew with the same severe spectrum of allergies. His cheeks only cleared up once all allergens were cleared from his...

While CR seems to work very well in rats, it showed little aid in helping extend the lifespans of larger mammals, particularly ones that started CR at a more advanced age.

Well that's in poor taste.:rolleyes:

Oh my gosh, I am so hopeful and thankful looking at this recipe!!!! Thank you so much and I'll let you know how it turns out (sans dehydrator because I don't have any).

I'm looking for a creamy sauce without tree nuts or sesame seeds? Since I'm violently allergic to both (I carry an Epi-Pen and an emergency card), and have suffered from allergic anaphylaxis, is...

It is almost definitely a calorie issue. You have to eat tons and tons of raw food to get the level of calories that you can easily procure with meat and dairy.

Uh...why eat eggs (chock full of cholesterol and saturated fat) when you can just get a vegan B-12 supplement?

Eating too much fruit can cause tooth decay, so it's important to be balanced.

You can of course use that same line of reasoning not to accept any generally accepted scientific fact at all.

What do you mean, precisely? It's generally accepted knowledge from all major (vegan and non) scientific sources that there is no usable B-12 from plant based sources. If anyone has any reputable...

What's found in those food sources you mentioned are B-12 analogues, the kind that are not usable to your body and can actually block the absorption of the useful kind of B-12 your body.

Every...

:(

So no one or no one knows of anyone that's healed their anaphylaxis through RAW?

I almost died last night accidentally ingesting some nut oil at a restaurant (throat and chest closed, couldn't breathe, vomited, had to be sent to the hospital, get shot with epinephrine, etc.) ....
