VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS

What is veganism?

VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS can be stated without fear of contradiction. Go off meat and all animal products and you will lose weight. The average vegan is more than 10 pounds lighter than a meat eater.

Veganism is more than being a vegetarian, ie eating no meat products. Most -isms come in various degrees of extremism, thus under Catholicism some (a dying breed!) will use absolutely no contraception, and some use it freely!

In like manner, some vegetarians will drink milk and eat cheese, eggs and perhaps even fish and fowl. But veganism is more. It's really a whole lifestyle exluding the use of any and all animal products. No leather shoes, certainly no furs and no animal products of any sort for food. Perhaps even no B12 injections, because they are of an animal source.

Is it safe?

Vegan weight loss is safe - if it's carefully planned. Simply excluding all the animal products you were eating, and continuing with what remains in your old diet is certainly not advisable. But, even if there are certain difficulties with the vegan diet - which there are - because of the profound ill effects of obesity and disability associated with it, a change to veganism will almost certainly benefit your health, if you are obese.

Vegetarians who eat a few eggs, and perhaps some dairy products, don't have to be too concerned about the balance of grains and legumes in their diet, or about vitamin B12 deficiency which causes a very serious illness called Pernicious anaemia. But vegans have to plan their diets very carefully if they are not only going to lose weight, but remain healthy.











Is VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS an Extremism?


It's the extremism of certain vegan groups like PeTA that raised the ire of many Americans recently. By likening fat American women to whales they have invited the anger of friend and foe alike upon their shoulders. Are VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS shock tactics justifiable?

Whales


To be a whale, if you are supported by water, is stunningly beautiful and healthy. But on dry land, beached whales suffer and die long before their time. That applies to real whales and human whales too. First and foremost PAIN with a capital P. Obese people are far more prone to arthritis.

Yes, VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS has a point. OBESITY and ARTHRITIS.


And then comes strokes, heart attacks, diabetes, high blood pressure and several dozen other miseries.

FROM THE COAL FACE: FREE WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAMS

In the days when I could not avoid losing a patient for any reason, I confess to being a less-than-good doctor. I had my own needs to consider, and stayed well away from prickly issues.

Now I am abrupt and direct. Such is the Dutch manner. It's called speaking the truth. In the process I lose a few angry and irritated patients. Too bad, because I save some from the misery that lies ahead.

Yesterday I was consulted by three young women, let's call them Stephanie, Helene and Anja. All three six months ago were 30 odd kilograms overweight. That gives them a BMI of over 35. A Body Mass Index of over 35 is extremely serious. Six months ago all three had significant low back conditions, and plenty of pain. At 30 they were miserable.

  • Stephanie took me seriously, and decided to follow our FREE WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAMS. She has lost 19 kilograms and is a totally different person. Not only has her serious back problem cleared up, but she's managed to get a job and is actually a very attractive young lady.

  • Helene has lost 21 kilograms following a vegan weight loss diet. She lives on a large barge with her husband and three children, transporting diesel from Rotterdam to Berne in Switzerland. Although she had no serious low back pain, she did regularly have a disabling ache. LOWER BACK PAIN.

  • Despite my bullying, Anya hasn't lost a pound. She's also a smoker, double trouble. Perhaps I have done her a disservice by fixing a very serious sciatica of some nine months duration, thus she sees no urgency to lose her weight. Read more about LOWER BACK AND LEG PAIN. Instead she has opted for an operation where a tight restrictive band is placed around her oesophagus, stopping food from entering her stomach.

    A beached whale?

    Vegan weight loss, or our Free Weight loss programs, or any other way you can do it, By Hook or by Crook, Calorie intake for weight loss ... get it off or face having to swallow bucket loads of pills, operations, pain and an early death.

    This has nothing to do with PeTA racism, sexism or any other extremism. It's all about PAIN. And pain does discriminate. It goes mercilessly for the beached whales. Are you one?

    OVER-INDULGENCE

    Whilst most obesity is due to poor diet rather than glutony, some of my patients are grossly obese simply because they eat far too much.

    May I humbly suggest you seriously suggest cutting back on 30% of what you eat, and making a donation to the African Enterprise Street Children's fund. That way you'll save your life, by eating less, and saving your knees and hips from painfully debilitating arthritis, and that of 10 African children who could survive on that saving. One million children die every year in Africa of starvation. Africa Enterprise Children's fund

    ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS

    Amino acids are the essential building blocks of the tissues of the body. Without the proper spread of these proteins, vegetarians can get a nasty disease called Kwashiorkor. The children of vegetarians and anyone on VEGAN WEIGHT LOSS are particularly susceptible. Google kwashiorkor if you want more info.

    Sesami Tahini is particularly rich in two amino acids that vegetarians find difficult to get. Delic stuff used in the making of hummus (chickpea garbanzo bean dip) and many other delicious foods like Baba Ghanoush. Yes, it's Mediterranean in origin.

    CHICKPEA GARBANZO BEAN DIP ...

    BABA GHANOUSH - dead easy eggplant and tahini dish. Delic.
