Taco Bell Has a Beef With Meat

Meat is a four-letter word. It’s high in fat and cholesterol, and it contributes to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and other life-threatening diseases.

Baked Tofu and Artichoke Mushroom Cashew Griller

The Healthy Vegan

The Vegan lifestyle is arrived at via many different paths. Some come to it by taking a stand against factory farming, and animal cruelty, while others want to be kinder to the earth, and then there is the awareness of the health benefits of a plant based diet. However you end up arriving, once you get here, the days of worrying about Vitamin B-12, and how you’ll get your protein,…

I embraced some of the stages and completely fumbled my way through a…
