Many people, especially animal lovers, choose to follow a vegetarian or vegan diet. But is it possible to make your cat a vegan? Well we have to remember that cats are devout carnivores - and our own thoughts and opinions about animal products can't really battle the years and years of evolution at play here.

There is evidence that diets with no or low levels of animal products may be better for the environment and have human health benefits. And a recent study found a growing number of pet owners are feeding their dogs and cats vegetarian or vegan diets, or would like to do so.

However, meat-free diets can potentially kill or sicken pets!

Dr. Gary Richter loves animals, and is passionate about keeping them healthy and happy as long as possible. He has received more than 30 awards due to his expertise in the field, and The American Veterinary Medical Foundation recently named Dr. Richter “America’s Favorite Veterinarian.” Dr. Richter has been at the forefront of pet nutrition for two decades, and he is also the author of the bestselling “The Ultimate Pet Health Guide.”

Interest in vegan food and its associated health benefits has been booming across the rich world. A global retreat from meat could have a far-reaching environmental impact.

By 2050 the world's population could approach 10 billion - and around 60% more food could be needed to feed everyone. The environmental impacts of the food system are daunting its responsible for about a quarter of all greenhouse gas emissions and uses about 70% of all freshwater resources, and it occupies about 40% of the Earth's land surface.

Food rated emissions could increase to 50 percent by 2050 and fill up the total emissions budget that we have in order to avoid dangerous levels of climate change.

Interest in vegan food has been booming across the rich world. A major study has put the diet to the test - analyzing an imagined scenario in which the world goes vegan by 2050. If everybody went vegan by 2050 we estimated that food-related greenhouse gas emissions could be reduced by 3/4.

Cows are the biggest emission contributors. Bugs in their digestive system produce methane and deforestation for their pasture releases carbon dioxide - these gases warm the planet. If cows were a country, they'd be the third largest greenhouse gas emitter.

This video defines veganism and explores the benefits and pitfalls of following a vegan diet. This video explores the effectiveness of vegan diet and the related health results. We also interview a vegan, Aïda Retta, of the Vegans of UBC club in order to get their first-hand experience of following the vegan diet and to dispel any myths associated with veganism.

Hello, friends!
So happy to share some of my favorite cruelty-free and vegan beauty products with you! Just know you don't need to switch out everything all at once - it all takes time :-) Do what you can and be mindful of what you use, that's all we can do!

There have been a lot of debates in recent years on if dogs, as well as cats can thrive while being fed a plant-based food. What do you think?

Vegetarians aren’t the only people who want to maximize dietary protein. How can we get the most protein from plants?

With the rise of the environmentally conscious consumer and veganism, fashion brands have looked for new sustainable fashion trends. Or at least, products that can be marketed as green. So, is vegan leather actually green, or is its environmental impact equal to - or worse - than real leather?

A UK mother got a lot of criticism online after sharing she is raising her 7-month-old baby on a vegan diet. Some opposed to her decision have gone as far as to suggest CPS be called! Dr. Anthony Porto, author of “Pediatrician’s Guide to Feeding Babies and Toddlers,” weighs in on the trend of parents raising their babies vegan, and whether or not it’s safe.

Thinking about skipping out on meat and dairy? Going vegan is becoming increasingly more common, but is it actually good for you?

What happens to your body when you go vegan?

Thinking of making the jump to a vegan diet? You’re not alone.

In your first few weeks, you may feel especially tired. Without meat, vegans often have a hard time getting enough vitamin B12 and iron, which helps make red blood cells and transport oxygen throughout the body. But it’s nothing a supplement or handful of nuts can’t fix.

You may also discover that foods don’t taste the way they used to. That’s because your zinc levels have taken a hit, affecting your overall sense of taste and smell.

On the plus side, expect to lose some weight right away! After switching, new vegans lost an average of 10 pounds over a 10 month period. Plus, a 2009 study found that average BMI was lower for vegans than all other diets.

Another benefit that you may experience is a healthy decrease in cholesterol, blood pressure, and heart disease risk. In 1999, a study showed that vegans were 24% less likely to have clogged arteries from saturated fat and cholesterol.

While your arteries are better off, your bones may not be. If you’re like most Americans who get their daily calcium from dairy products, you may see a dip in calcium levels.

But you can combat this simply by boosting your intake of kale, broccoli, and other leafy greens. Plus, cutting out dairy might make you more … regular. 60% of humans don’t have the enzyme to properly digest lactose in dairy. The result is cramping, bloating, and even diarrhea. Swapping dairy with high fiber veggies will make bathroom trips a lot more productive.

Like any diet, veganism has its pros and cons. Be sure to research and see which diet is best for you.

In this episode of Abbey’s Kitchen , Abbey is reviewing one of Ellen Fisher’s What I Eat in a Day video, featuring her family. Let’s take a deeper look at their lifestyle and what they typically eat in a day.

Okay, right off the bat, super adorable kids. Also great that her kids participate in the kitchen. BUT, Abbey’s not a fan of big quantities of juice for children. When juicing, you’re losing out on a bunch of fibre, and it’s best to keep your kid’s juice intake to 1/4 cup a day.

Abbey recommends you use the pulp to add to yogurt, oats or dehydrate it and turn it into fruit leather.

Yes avocados are a great source of healthy fats especially for a growing babe, but I would add some variety of the meal and not just serve up fruit with it. Ideally some source of iron like pulses.

Side note, looks like Ellen is just having papaya fo breakfast which is a whole lot of fruit and would love to see some protein. But Abbey loves how independent Sandy is and how Ellen lets Sandy discover the food on their own.

Abbey is loving that they’re still breastfeeding! Abbey is still worried about the lack of iron in the meal so far.

Looks like lunch is a smoothie, and Abbey wished she wasn’t seeing so many liquid foods. Abbey likes seeing the hemp heart and spiriluna. But looks like Sandy is enjoying more whole pieces of food.

Abbey would like to see some more variety in the fats Ellen is offering Sandy and not much variety in texture. Abbey is not a fan of the addition of sprouts, because sprouts are made in a warm environment and theres a higher risk of food borne illnesses. So cooking them instead of raw is better.

Let’s look at Sandy’s nutrition. It looks like Sandy is meeting his needs but is far from balanced.

Abbey is hoping the family is supplementing vitamin B12.
Abbey wants to see some more iron, because it looks like Sandy is getting around 1mg of iron and it’s recommended to get 7mg. Abbey would have liked to see more zinc foods. Finally, Abbey would have liked to see some more vitamin D rich foods.

Abbey is no way wants to shame another mother and their family but when Abbey sees a YouTuber sharing their life and recommending what to feed their babies, Abbey has to put on her research hat. Feeding a baby a vegan diet can be done. It just needs to be followed carefully, ensuring all the vitamins and minerals are accounted for. It’s important we focus on feeding our kids a nice variety of foods and texture.

If you want to feed your baby a vegan diet, make sure you’re speaking with a Registered Dietitian. You want to make sure you are getting the right information from a trusted professional and not a vegan YouTuber.

If you liked this video, be sure to give it a thumbs up! Leave me a comment below on what other YouTubers What I Eat In a Day you want me to review. Thanks for watching and I’ll see you next time on Abbey’s Kitchen!

Before lockdown WIRED visited Veolia's recycling plant in Southwark, South London, to ask about some of the most common recycling myths. Do you need to remove the plastic lid when you recycling a water bottle? What do you do with those widgets in Guinness cans? What do all the green symbols mean?

Veolia handles the waste from more than two million Londoners. Every single hour it processes 14 tonnes of recyclable content that we throw away.

This video was produced as part of Digital Society, a publishing partnership between WIRED and Vontobel where all content is editorially independent.
