Veganism is often defined by what we don’t eat: meat, fish, eggs, dairy and honey, plus some of the animal ingredients that are hidden away in products, such as whey, gelatine and cochineal. But really, we should focus on all the great stuff that vegans do eat. And in reality, the ALICIA SILVERSTONE, difference isn’t all that huge. Instead of ACTRESS AND meaty burgers, sausage and steaks, we VEGANUARY eat plant-based versions.

We discuss some of the major health benefits of a vegan diet in theWHY VEGAN? section of this guide, but here we have also included additional information on the six nutritional queries that crop up most often. PROTEIN CALCIUM The first question asked of vegans is often Just as meat does not have the monopoly where do you get your protein? And it on protein, milk does not have the surprises us because protein is in almost monopoly on calcium! Beans and greens every single food we eat. Of course, there tend to be calcium-rich, so eat plenty, are better sources than others, but it is not including black turtle beans, kidney beans, difficult to reach the recommended daily soya beans, kale, watercress, okra and intake as a vegan. broccoli.

Be sure to eat plenty of vitamin C to help you absorb it and avoid drinking coffee or tea with your meal. OMEGA-3 AND OMEGA-6 Our bodies are able to make almost all the fats we need for the proper functioning of our tissues, but there are two we must get from our food, and for this reason they are known as Essential VITAMIN B12 Fatty Acids. This is the one vitamin that can be trickier Omega-6 can be found plentifully in to obtain as a vegan.

The good news is that the British Dietetic Association says that vegan diets can be suitable for people of any age, including children. There are bad vegan diets, of course, in the same way that there are bad meat-inclusive diets, and so it is important to get the nutrients right. So, what to feed them? The following advice from the NHS is a great place to start.2 Growing kids burn a lot of energy and need a high-calorie intake; too much fibre will cause small stomachs to feel full before they’ve actually got enough.

    Animal Welfare Issues 4. Farm Animals Introduction Intensive Farming Fur and skin farming Exotic/cruel foods Markets Live Transport Slaughter Genetic Engineering Mutilations Legislative Bans Alternatives Science Feeding the World Annex 1 - Scientific Quotations Further Resources Introduction In terms of numbers of animals affected, factory farming is the largest animal welfare concern in the world. FAO statistics show the global production of meat has risen from 136,219,000 tonnes for 1979-81 to 260,098,000 tonnes for 2004. The following statistics give an indication of the numbers of different species involved and the numbers exported. Farmed animal numbers (FAO 2003): Pigs 956 million Chickens 16,605 million Cattle 1,371 million Sheep 1,024 Numbers of farm animals exported alive (FAO 2002): Pigs 18 million Chickens 837 million Cattle 8 million Sheep 19 million Billions of farm animals throughout the world are reared behind the closed doors of the factory farm. Many farm animals suffer greatly in transport slaughter and in factory farms: where they are caged, crammed and confined, forced to grow super-fast, and pushed to their physical limits in the quest for ever-more meat, milk or eggs. However, animal protection activity often neglects farm animals, because their suffering is hidden. The rapid rise of factory farming systems in the USA and Europe took place in the latter half of the last century. Factory farming systems are characterised by large numbers of farm animals being caged or crated, and crammed into (typically) windowless sheds. 1 Animal Welfare Issues Three classic factory farm methods were clear examples of the suffering caused by such methods: veal crates for calves, stall and tether-cages for pregnant pigs, and battery cages for laying hens.

  • Centre for Animal Welfare News 2017
    2017 News and Events from the University of Winchester’s Centre for Animal Welfare CAW Acting Director speaks out on Brexit, sentience and animal welfare 12 December 2017 Dr Steven McCulloch, Acting Director of CAW, has published two articles on Brexit, sentience and animal welfare. Sentience and animal welfare has received substantial media attention after Parliament voted against an amendment to the EU Withdrawal Bill tabled by Caroline Lucas MP. Dr McCulloch's first article, Brexit, Animal Sentience and Democracy, describes the moral atrocities committed against animals when their sentience has been denied. In the article he argues that the historical denial of sentience and its consequences in itself means that government should formally recognise it in law. The second article The Greatness Of A Nation Can Be Judged By How It Treats Its Animals is critical of the Conservative government policy to reject incorporating Article 13 in the EU Withdrawal Bill. How clever are the animals we keep? World's first Professor of Animal Welfare, gives lecture at CAW event 28 November 2017 Donald Broom, Emeritus Professor at the University of Cambridge (pictured above centre with Dr Steve McCulloch and Professor Joy Carter), gave a CAW evening lecture on How clever are the animals we keep? on 27 Nov 2017. Donald Broom was the first person to be appointed Professor of Animal Welfare in the world. Professor Joy Carter, Vice Chancellor at Winchester, introduced the CAW event, which was a great success. Over one hundred staff, students and members of the public attended. Watch the video of the Centre for Animal Welfare lecture How clever are the animals we keep? by Professor Donald Broom.

  • Europe Needs a Food Not Feed Policy
    Europe Needs a Food not Feed Policy Philip Lymbery, Peter Stevenson and Carol McKenna Compassion in World Farming, River Court, Mill Lane, Godalming, GU7 1EZ, UK [email protected] Paper prepared for presentation at the 148th seminar of the EAAE, ‘’Does Europe need a Food Policy?”, Brussels, Belgium, 30 November – 1 December, 2015 Copyright 2015 Philip Lymbery, Peter Stevenson and Carol McKenna. All rights reserved. Readers may make verbatim copies of this document for non- commercial purposes by any means, provided that this copyright notice appears on all such copies. EUROPE NEEDS A FOOD NOT FEED POLICY Abstract Current European agricultural policies serve to prop up industrial animal agriculture, which doesn’t produce food but wastes it. A sustainable food policy would focus on producing healthy food for people, and not feed for animals, whilst protecting the environment. When considering sustainability in value chains, a key fact commonly overlooked is that nearly two thirds of EU cereals are fed to farm animals, with enormous associated loss of ~70%: for every 100 food calories of edible crops fed to livestock just 30 calories are produced in the form of meat and milk. If this human-edible grain were fed to people, it could feed an extra 3 billion. Such losses are not restricted to grain: around a quarter of the world’s landed fish catch never reaches a human mouth, much of it is diverted to feed industrially reared fish, pigs or poultry. Animals’ inefficiency in converting human-edible crops into meat and milk brings other inefficiencies in its train: It is a wasteful use not just of the crops but also of the land, water and energy used to grow them.

    Charity Commission PO Box 211 BOOTLE L20 7YX Online complaint form Scottish Chairty Regulator (OSCR) 2nd Floor Quadrant House 9 Riverside Drive Dundee DD1 4NY Email: [email protected] 12 May 2017 Complaint against Freedom Food (RSPCA Assured) Please consider this a formal complaint against Freedom Food (re-branded as RSPCA Assured in 2016) - as registered by the Scottish Charity Regulator as Freedom Food Limited, SC038199 and registered by the Charity Commission as Charity no. 1059879 (and Company no. 2723670). Freedom For Fish (a campaign recently launched by the Global Alliance Against Industrial Aquaculture) presents evidence below and in various attachments sourced from data obtained via FOI from the Scottish Environment Protection Agency and Scottish Natural Heritage (see next email) detailing reasons why Freedom Food should not be afforded charitable status. Our complaint and submitted evidence focuses solely on farmed salmon and focuses on: 1) Freedom Food Promotes Not Prevents Cruelty to Animals Via Salmon Farming Accreditation 2) Freedom Food is Commercial NOT Charitable 3) Freedom Food Accredited Scottish Salmon is a Welfare Nightmare 4) Freedom Food Accounts for ca. 70% of Scottish Salmon Farming Production GAAIA has complained previously with regard to Freedom Food's accreditation of farmed salmon in letters dated November 2015; August 2015; and July 2012. Suffice to say that GAAIA has never received a satisfactory reply and has been in no way reassured. The only assurance is that the RSPCA are still promoting the killing of seals and other cruel and inhumane animal welfare problems via accreditation of Freedom Food/RSPCA Assured farmed salmon.

WSPA is established as a charitable body in the UK to prevent and alleviate the suffering of animals and believes that current whaling practices often involve unnecessary suffering and cruelty which should be avoided. Hopefully, this work will assist in highlighting those issues so as to enable members of the public to have a more informed view on whaling operations and the potential cruelty to which those operations give rise.
