Veganism and Your Health: Why Going Vegan May Save Your Life
I read The China Study (Dr. T. Colin Campbell) a few weeks ago, and this has prompted me to go 100% vegan for health reasons. I had already adopted a meat-reduced diet, and other than eating cheese on occasion, I never ate dairy. But the overwhelming evidence, found not just in The China Study, but in the work of Dr. Caldwell B. Esselstyn, Dr. John McDougall, and many, many others have made me realize that a pure vegan diet is the optimal choice for health and disease prevention.
This has nothing to do with ethics for me. I ate meat and eggs before from smaller, organic farms, not from large, factory slaughterhouses.
This has nothing to do with “hokey” unsubstantiated claims from obscure doctors and research articles. My focus is on facts and science, not on imaginary health problems or spiritual issues.
I plan to delve deep into the issues and the research and present them to anyone interested in learning more about this, or adopting this lifestyle for themselves.
In the end, I think the evidence will be overwhelming that veganism prevents and cures heart diseases, cancers, and numerous other ailments that North American are stricken with.

Ching He-Huang/Great Wall of China green tea ice cream with candied walnuts
Ching He-Huang/Great Wall of China green tea ice cream with candied walnuts
Ingredients
For the ice cream
* 6 tbsp longjing tea leaves, or other green tea leaves, roughly chopped
* 900ml double cream
* 100g caster sugar
For the candied walnuts
* 210g walnut halves
* 450g golden syrup
* 2 tbsp light brown sugar
To decorate
* sprigs Mint
* frosted cornflakes, roughly crushed
* icing sugar
Method
1. For the ice cream: place the tea leaves, cream and caster sugar in a pan and place over a medium heat. Heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, or until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
2. Once cooled, transfer the mixture to an ice-cream machine and follow the manufacturers instructions to make ice cream, then transfer to the freezer. Remove five minutes before serving.
3. Preheat the oven to 200C/Gas 6.
4. For the candied walnuts: heat a clean frying pan and dry-toast the walnuts, tossing the pan frequently to prevent burning, for about one minute, or until the walnuts are golden. Add the golden syrup and warm through, stirring to coat the walnuts in the syrup. Remove from the heat.
5. Line a roasting tin with greaseproof paper, pour over the walnuts and syrup mixture and sprinkle over the brown sugar. Place into the oven for 3-4 minutes, or until the brown sugar has melted. Remove from the oven and leave to cool slightly.
6. Divide a large round plate into three sections imagine three lines leading from the rim of the plate all meeting in the centre. Starting from the centre of the plate and using chopsticks or wetted fingers, place four or five pieces of candied walnut along each line, then top with three or four, then two or three, and so forth, so that the wall becomes lower as you reach the edge of the plate.
7. Place a generous scoop of ice cream in each of the three sections between the walls and decorate the peaks of the ice cream with mint sprigs. Sprinkle over some crushed cornflakes, dust with icing sugar and serve immediately.
