Ilustration As Books The World Peace Diet

Food is our most intimate and telling connection both with the living natural order and with our living cultural heritage. By eating the plants and animals of our earth, we literally incorporate them. It is also through this act of eating that we partake of our culture's values and paradigms at the most primal levels. It is becoming increasingly obvious, however, that the choices we make about our food are leading to environmental degradation, enormous human health problems, and unimaginable cruelty toward our fellow creatures.

The World Peace Diet suggests how we as a species might move our consciousness forward so that we can be more free, more intelligent, more loving, and happier in the choices we make.

Column Based On Books The World Peace Diet

One more reason to become vegetarian/vegan: world peace. After 18 or so years, I hadn't thought I needed any more reason than the animals, health and the environment, but this book convinced me. I'll try to write more about this book later.

So I'm three months into not eating meat, fish or eggs. This book was recommended the day I stopped, and I'm glad I read it. It makes me feel better for my choices. It has some good information and a new look from some of the gross-you-out so you won't eat meat books.

This has to be one of the best and most comprehensive books on why evolving to a vegan society can improve our world.The entire book is so eloquently, patiently, and lovingly written.

Jesus, and others, have taught us you reap what you sow. That in essence is the message of this book, and one I deeply resonate with. Tuttle's perspective is that with every meal we eat, we are mostly unconsciously sowing seeds of violence, disconnection and exploitation. Meat, dairy and eggs are, at the worst, products of extreme violence and suffering, and at best are still only made possible by seeing animals as commodities for human use. The draw backs of Tuttle's book are that he repeats

The most intelligent life changing book I have read to date!

Will Tuttle proposes that all the violence, exploitation, and dysfunction we experience in our society has its origin in what he calls the "herding culture", our millennia-long practice of using animals for food. It's a compelling idea, and I read the entire book to see where he was going with this. As a long-time vegan, I'm well aware of the horrendous cruelty we inflict in raising, confining, and torturing animals in factory farms; Tuttle's chapters describing this are vivid and convincing.

"It becomes immediately obvious, though, that our collective sense of guilt about our mistreatment of animals for food makes recognizing this basic connection enormously difficult. Eating animal foods is a fundamental cause of our dilemmas, but we will squirm every which way to avoid confronting this. It is our defining blind spot and is the essential missing piece to the puzzle of human peace and freedom. Because of our culturally inherited behavior of abusing the animals we use for food and
