To Take or Not to Take Supplements

Posted in Food For Thought Podcast.

In today’s episode, I answer such questions as, “Are vitamin/mineral supplements necessary?” “Are there any risks to taking supplements?” “Are supplements just a waste of money?” “Is it necessary/wise to take a daily multivitamin?” “What zero-waste, vegan supplements do you take?” 

As always, you can find lots of resources for living compassionately and healthfully at joyfulvegan.com, you can find my books wherever books are sold, and you can join me in my online cooking classes or in an upcoming vegan trip.

Are Oysters Vegan?

Posted in Food For Thought Podcast.

I’ve heard every justification for the consumption of animals, but I was a bit stunned when I heard someone claim that vegans should eat oysters because bivalves are “basically plants.” No doubt there are grey areas in this whole attempt to live as compassionately as possible. But even the fuzzy lines are still lines. If I let you eat oysters, would you stop eating cows?
