  • The Safety of a Vegan Diet During Pregnancy Bezpieczeństwo Diety
    Postepy Hig Med Dosw (online), 2021; 75: 91-100 www.phmd.pl e-ISSN 1732-2693 Review Received: 18.05.2020 Accepted: 26.02.2021 The Safety of a Vegan Diet During Pregnancy Published: 16.06.2021 Bezpieczeństwo diety wegańskiej podczas ciąży Miłosz Miedziaszczyk1*, Patrycja Ciabach1*, Edmund Grześkowiak2, Edyta Szałek2 1Student’s Scientific Circle of Clinical Pharmacy of Department of Clinical Pharmacy and Biopharmacy, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poznan, Poland 2Department of Clinical Pharmacy and Biopharmacy, Poznan University of Medical Sciences, Poznan, Poland *Authors are equal Summary There is an increasing number of people who go vegetarian. Some young parents also switch to this diet. The safety of vegetarian diets, especially vegan diets, is very important, especially during pregnancy. Unfortunately, reference publications do not provide coherent data on the safety of vegetarian diets during pregnancy. On the one hand, the vegan diet has advantages because it reduces the risk of heart disease and gestational diabetes. On the other hand, vegetarians/vegans should be aware of potential deficiencies of some nutrients (iron, zinc, vitamin B12, vitamin D, omega-3 fatty acids, calcium, iodine) and the clinical consequences for the fetus. For example, iron deficiency may affect cognitive abilities, behavior, intelligence and increase the risk of preterm birth and low birth weight of infants. Plant food contains non-haem iron with variable absorption. Therefore, the vegan diet should include nutrients increasing the bioavailability of iron, e.g. ascorbic acid, carotene and retinol. Due to the fact that animal food is the main source of vitamin B12, vegans are at a very high risk of vitamin B12 deficiency, which will affect the infant’s weight at birth.

  • Chapter 1 Chapter 2
    Notes Chapter 1 1. The context in which Jensen and McBay raise the question is grim. What, they ask, will be our legacy? What will we leave behind? We may do our best to live sustainably, but this is an impossible task so long as we inhabit and depend on a society and economy that are unsustainable—not to mention physically, socially, and psychologically toxic. 2. Lest you assume that notions like those articulated by Descartes and Bacon no longer have cultural currency, Jensen cites theo- retical physicist Gerard Milburn, who states that “The aim of modern science is to reach an understanding of the world, not merely purely for aesthetic reasons, but that it may be ordered to our purpose” (2000, 20). Chapter 2 1. Plant neurobiology bears no resemblance to the ideas proffered by Cleve Baxter (1968), who contends that plants react teleki- netically to human thoughts and emotions. Nor do plant neu- robiologists contend, like Peter Tomkins and Christopher Bird (1973), that plants have a “secret” psychical life. These sorts of propositions have not proven to be scientifically replicable. 2. To be a subject-of- a- life, according to Regan, is to be a being who can experience pleasure and pain, perceive, remember, have a sense of the future, and be cognizant of one’s psychophysical identity over time (1983, 243). This ostensibly marks a higher bar than sentience, but we will see that plants may well have many of these capacities anyway. 3. For Regan, we devalue subjects- of- a- life, and perhaps sentient beings as well, if we casually consume animals who may not quite meet comparable standards.

This study takes a prosopographical approach to the development of modern Christian vegetarianism across a number of Christian vegetarian sects, and some more mainstream traditions, over a period of two centuries. The method allows for important points of similarity and difference to be noted among these groups’ founders and members. This research contributes particularly to radical Christian groups’ place in the vegetarian movement’s modern history. This study demonstrates how and why Christian vegetarianism developed in the nineteenth century and to what extent it influenced the secular vegetarian movement and wider society. It contextualizes nineteenth-century Christian vegetarianism in the wider movement of temperance, and considers why vegetarianism never made inroads into mainstream churches in the way that the temperance movement did.

  • How to Eat to Live: Black Nationalism and the Post-‐1964 Culinary Turn
    How to Eat to Live: Black Nationalism and the Post-1964 Culinary Turn Jennifer Jensen Wallach Segregated lunch counters were one of the most visible sites of direct-action protest during the classical phase of the civil rights movement. In 1960 stalwart civil rights activist Ella Baker declared that the youthful protestors who participated in the struggle for desegregation acted out of much loftier goals than the desire for a “hamburger or even a giant-sized Coke.”1 Instead, she argued, the students who organized sit-ins at public dining venues throughout the South were concerned with nothing less than the “moral implications of racial discrimination for the ‘whole world’ and the ‘Human Race’” and not merely with their inability to fill their stomachs with an iconic food and beverage combination. 2 In Baker’s formulation, southern racism was on trial. She saw food as incidental rather than fundamental to the struggle. However, by the close of the decade, many politically active African Americans regarded foods such as hamburgers as potent cultural symbols worthy of contemplation. Quoted in a 1974 article in Ebony magazine about a growing trend toward vegetarianism, African American blues musician Taj Mahal labeled a hamburger “a serious vulgarity.” In making that statement, he was articulating a belief then held by many.3 For some, the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which outlawed segregation at spaces of public accommodation such as restaurants, seemed like a mixed blessing. Although the demolition of legalized segregation was an important moral victory, passage of the law prompted questions about the desirability of meaningful integration.

  • Vegetarianism and Veganism: Not Only Benefits but Also Gaps
    Progress in Nutrition 2017; Vol. 19, N. 3: 229-242 DOI: 10.23751/pn.v19i3.5229 © Mattioli 1885 Reviews Vegetarianism and veganism: not only benefits but also gaps. A review Alessandra Petti1, Beniamino Palmieri1, Maria Vadalà1, Carmen Laurino1, 2 1Surgical, Medical, Dental and Morphological Sciences Departments with interest in Transplants, Oncology and Regenerative Medicine, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Modena, Italy; 2 Second Opinion Medical Network, Modena, Italy - E-mail: [email protected] Summary. Background and aim of the work. The main Food Choice Motives (FCMs) of vegetarianism and ve- ganism are supported by ethical, health, ecological and pleasure motivations, but also family and cultural tra- ditions play a definite role. A better health achievement is usually the first goal of turning vegetarians, on the reports that ischemic heart, circulatory and cerebrovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and some cancer were significantly lower in vegetarians and vegans than in omnivores. In this review, we investigate the main rea- sons that lead to the choice of an increasingly common lifestyle, such as vegetarianism and veganism and the pros & cons of this choice. Methods. We reviewed studies focused on vegetarian and vegan diets, and included articles published between 1975 and 2015. We searched Pubmed/Medline using the terms “vegetarianism”, “veganism”, “benefits” and “diseases”, alone or combined. This review aims at describing vegetarian and vegan diets, discussing current knowledge about motivations for pursuing this diet, clinical benefits and limitations. Results. Vegetarian and vegan diets are low in n-3 PUFA, proteins, calcium, zinc, iron, vitamins B12 and D. Conclusions. Different guidelines for vegetarian and especially vegan diets have been settled based on the need to fortify foods with molecules that are reduced or missing in these diets.

  • Vegetarianism and Veganism in Australia an Annotated Bibliography
    Vegetarianism and Veganism in Australia an annotated bibliography Compiled by Edgar Crook 7 th Edition, 2009 This bibliography is only concerned with works produced within Australia, or by an Australian, which prominently features vegetarianism or veganism. Most, but not all of the works, are currently available to researchers from Australian libraries (according to institutional catalogues and the Australian National Bibliographic Database). The bibliography is as comprehensive as possible on works published prior to 1980 but it is not a complete record of all works published. The bibliography contains only that which is known to the compiler or available in a library or other institution. It is to be expected that some historical works have not been collected by any organization and so are presumed lost to a current readership. Some commercially produced vegetarian cookery books published after 1980 have not been included in the bibliography as they are numerous and the information within them is of minimal value to researchers. Works primarily on animal rights or welfare have generally not been included. The monograph entries are ordered by author surname. Where there is more than one work by the same author they are listed in date order. Authorless works are entered using the title within author order. The periodical list is in title order. Due to the large amount of material produced by the Seventh-day Adventist Church they are listed separately at the end of the bibliography. As this is an ongoing project, I would welcome information on any relevant published works that have been omitted. Please contact the compiler at: [email protected] Vegetarianism and Veganism in Australia : an annotated bibliography Page 2 Monographs : General works: comprises a listing of books which include, discuss or promote vegetarianism or veganism.

    ANKH, UJDA, SENEB (LIFE, STRENGTH, HEALTH): “LET FOOD BE THY MEDICINE,” AN EPISTEMIC EXAMINATION ON THE GENEALOGY OF THE AFRICANA HOLISTIC HEALTH TRADITION, WITH PRELIMINARY CONSIDERATIONS IN THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA, 1967 TO THE PRESENT A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR of PHILOSOPHY by Heru Setepenra Heq-m-Ta Department of African American Studies December 2016 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Nathaniel Norment, Jr., Advisory Chair, African American Studies, Temple University Dr. Greg Kimathi Carr, Afro-American Studies, Howard University Dr. Abu Shardow Abarry, African American Studies, Temple University Dr. Wilbert Jenkins, History, Temple University Dr. Mario Hollis Beatty, External Member, Afro-American Studies, Howard University © Copyright 2016 by Heru Setepenra Heq-m-Ta All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT The utilization of natural elements of the earth to remedy corporeal maladies dates back to the medical systems of ancient Nile Valley culture. Given the continuity and intergenerational transmission of knowledge evident in African expressions of culture, these olden naturalistic health techniques, throughout time, have continuously been used as therapeutic modalities by posterior African cultures—both continental and Diasporic. Due to its tripartite approach to healing—of mind, body and spirit— this age-old African healing tradition has gained popularity in contemporary times and is commonly known today as the locution: holistic health. The principal objective of this intellectual project is to reveal an unbroken genealogy of a thriving Africana holistic health tradition upheld by both advocates and practitioners in the field. Notwithstanding the current state of health of Africans residing in the United States, the praxis of these ancient healing customs is extant within communities which the population is predominately African.
