Did you know that if you adopt a vegan diet you can enjoy better sex? Save money? Have glowing skin? You can ward off Alzheimer’s, Type 2 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and other metabolic diseases. You can eat delicious burgers. Help save the planet. Join the cool kids, like Gandhi, Tolstoy, Leonardo—and Kyrie Irving, Kat Von D, and Joaquin Phoenix. Oh, and did we mention have better sex? (It’s about blood flow.)
Those are just some of the 72 reasons we should all be vegan, as compiled and persuasively argued by Gene Stone and Kathy Freston, two of the leading voices in the ever-growing movement to eat a plant-based diet. While plenty of books tell you how to go vegan, 72 Reasons to Be Vegan is the book that tells you why. And it does so in a way that emphasizes not what you’d be giving up, but what you’d be gaining.
"Bestselling vegan activist Kathy Freston and the movement’s best chronicler, Gene Stone, team up to give us 72 reasons to go plant based (and better sex is just one of them!) A must-read for anyone concerned about the future of our planet, their own health, or the moral ramifications of meat-eating.”
—Dan Buettner, National Geographic Fellow and author of The Blue Zones

For readers considering a vegan diet, Stone (Eat for the Planet Cookbook, 2020) and Freston (The Book of Veganish, 2016) have 72 convincing reasons. The book is short and easy to complete in little time, perfect for those with busy schedules, with well-researched information written in accessible language. Each chapter is titled for one of the reasons, which span environmental, emotional, and health-related concerns and range from the serious ("Pandemics like COVID-19 are preventable"") to the humorous ("Chickens like to be cuddled"). While the book doesn't aim to force its points onto readers, it does exert some heavy pressure by way of explicit details of animal abuse, which may be too much for some readers. However, those who can handle it will find this a useful resource.COPYRIGHT(2021) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
