An online space for the vegans of Lemmy.

Rules and miscellaneous:

  1. We take for granted that if you engage in this community, you understand that veganism is about the animals. You either are vegan for the animals, or you are not (this is not to say that discussions about climate/environment/health are not allowed, of course)
  2. No omni/carnist apologists. This is not a place where to ask to be hand-holded into veganims. Omnis coddling/backpatting is not tolerated, nor are /r/DebateAVegan-like threads
  3. Use content warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content
  4. Circlejerking belongs to /c/vegancirclejerk
  5. All posts should abide by Lemmy's Code of Conduct

You linked to How Not to Die, which is by the same author as How Not to Diet.

He advocates WFPB. I have read How Not to Die and it was more interesting and funny than I expected. It’s a good tour of the scientific studies related to the foods correlated with the most common causes of death.

Studies about longevity have reached the conclusion that WFPB is best for long life as well. The Blue Zone diet focused on longevity also emphasis a plant-based diet with less processed food.
