"Vegan diet nearly killed me"

Meat, once hailed as a health food is soon loosing its caché.

With independent studies pouring in from all over the world on the harmful effects of eating meat: from benign bad body odor to deadly diseases like cancers and auto immune diseases like multiple sclerosis, coupled with the environmental and the animal welfare concerns, the timing couldn't have been better for a celebrity like Angelina Jolie to pull off some damage control for the ever so threatened Meat Industry.

Pedigree Dogs Exposed

Pedigree dogs are suffering from genetic diseases following years of inbreeding, an investigation has found. A BBC documentary says they are suffering acute problems because looks are emphasised over health when breeding dogs for shows. The programme shows spaniels with brains too big for their skulls and boxers suffering from epilepsy. The Kennel Club says it works tirelessly to improve the health of pedigree dogs.

Dog-Fighting Undercover

I was approached by the BBC 18 months ago with the idea of trying to infiltrate a dog-fighting ring in the UK.

My views on animal welfare have always been strong and the thought of people fighting dogs makes me sick to the stomach. I wanted to expose these people. This was an investigation that needed doing.

The Big Brain Myth

Size isn't everything. What's so special about the human brain? It turns out that we're no better endowed between the ears than you would expect for a primate of our size.

Laurie Santos looks for the roots of human irrationality by watching the way our primate relatives make decisions. A clever series of experiments in "monkeynomics" shows that some of the silly choices monkeys make, we make too.

Gary Yourofsky at Georgia Tech, July 8, 2010

Gary Yourofsky is NIO’s Senior Editor of Vegan Education. Founder of ADAPTT (Animals Deserve Absolute Protection Today and Tomorrow). Yourofsky uses his notoriety  (including 13 arrests, a mink liberation in Canada in ‘97, and banishment from five countries) to reach tens of thousands of students through approximately 250 engagements annually in public schools and universities across the country. He uses thought-provoking prose, inspiring stories, indisputable facts, quotes from Pythagoras, William Ralph Inge and other great thinkers, plus graphic footage from slaughterhouses (land and sea), to ask people to be kind to animals and, ultimately, go vegan.

China Study Author Slaps Down Critic

There has recently been a flurry of discussion prompted by an article by raw-animal-product advocate Denise Minger, which criticizes The China Study and attacks its author, Dr. T. Colin Campbell. Minger questions Dr. Campbell's personal motives and attempts to impugn his character.

Dr. Campbell recently took time to review Minger's observations and respond. You can read Minger's original article below, linked at the start of Dr. Campbell's response.

Quote Martial

Ask the experimenters why they experiment on animals, and the answer is: "Because the animals are like us." Ask the experimenters why it is morally OK to experiment on animals, and the answer is: "Because the animals are not like us." Animal experimentation rests on a logical contradiction. - Dr. Charles R. Magel, Prof. of Ethics, Moorhead St. Univ.
