There's a ton of reasons to go vegan. I went vegan for my health, for the animals, and for the planet.

As an member of the LGBTQ community, I belong to a group that is encouraged to internalize oppression in the form of food and other addictive substances. (Think of the standard gay brunch and also of the alcohol companies that have historically underwritten Pride events). In my experience, there is a connection between food addictions and alcohol and drug addictions.
Since going plant-based, some of the most interesting research I've heard about is on how healthy plant-based diets can work to eliminate all addictions.
In the past five years, since the death of my father, I've also done some research of my paternal line -- which is quite depressing and scary with people dying in their forties from conditions relating to heart disease and addictions.
These days, staying healthy is how I feed my rebellious soul. It may be a daily practice, but I am doing it.
So this year in honor of National Vegan Day, which really is everyday, I am bringing you links to my top vegan posts. Enjoy!
