For P.E. Wellness, students were asked to make a five to seven-day observation of what they ate, drank, along with exercise.

I found that at the start of documenting, I had a higher intaking of fat than was recommended but not enough carbohydrates or protein.

Nutritionist Corinna Koebnick and colleagues studied 513 raw-foodists with who ate between 70 percent and 100 percent raw food in their diets. The average weight loss when changing from a cooked to a raw diet was 26.5 pounds for women and 21.8 pounds for men. They found that a third of the study subjects had a chronic energy deficiency, leading them to conclude that “a strict raw food diet cannot guarantee an adequate energy supply.” This study was done on modern humans living in Germany, where…

will be based on my local region because of the rise in restaurants that will cater for vegans.

Why do we feel that as humans, we are entitled to kill and consume any animal we want because we are 'on top of the food chain? Why do we perpetuate the myth that we /need/ to eat other animals to survive as a species? In order to create a more ethical, personal and environmentally sustainable future we must end, or at least lower, meat consumption. Australia, next to the US, has the highest rate of meat consumption with the population consuming 115 kilograms per person per year. This rate of…
