Raw Vegan Recipes

Combining veganism and raw foodism, raw veganism excludes all animal-based products as well as foods cooked using temperatures beyond 48 degrees Celsius or 118 degrees Fahrenheit. Vegan diets comprised of at least 75% raw foods are sometimes acceptable as raw vegan diets. The practice is based on the belief that cooking results to destruction of micronutrients found in foods. Some raw vegan practitioners believe that an undesirable heat reaction in the cooking process may result to a negative chemical reaction. Cooking makes easier digestion possible. Raw foods spoil easily thus appropriate care and attention should be given to consuming them in their optimum condition. Consumption of spoiled health food is far dangerous than consumption of meat products. In keeping with the Ve...

Famous Vegan People

Fitting Gift for Vegans

The gifts we give to family and friends always require some thought because of our desire to please by finding that one thing that could light up the eyes of the receiver. For a vegan gift recipient, we may need to understand what veganism is so we can find just the right gift. Fortunately, there are many products available in the market that are visibly marked as vegan. We can derive a lot of gift ideas from these and come up with a choice that is unique, special, and appropriate. Vegans favor the non-use of animal substances and by-products on anything they consume or use. We should be aware that animal derivatives are usually included both in food and non-food items. Labels typically provide the essential information about ingredients used but may not provide other in...
