Soy Free Diet Avoiding Soy
SOY FREE DIET AVOIDING SOY An allergy to soy is common in babies and young children, studies show that often children outgrow a soy allergy by age 3 years and the majority by age 10. Soybeans are a member of the legume family; examples of other legumes include beans, peas, lentils and peanut. It is important to remember that children with a soy allergy are not necessarily allergic to other legumes, request more clarification from your allergist if you are concerned. Children with a soy allergy may have nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, bloody stool, difficulty breathing, and or a skin reaction after eating or drinking soy products. These symptoms can be avoided by following a soy free diet. What foods are not allowed on a soy free diet? Soy beans and edamame Soy products, including tofu, miso, natto, soy sauce (including sho yu, tamari), soy milk/creamer/ice cream/yogurt, soy nuts and soy protein, tempeh, textured vegetable protein (TVP) Caution with processed foods - soy is widely used manufactured food products – remember to carefully read labels. o Soy products and derivatives can be found in many foods, including baked goods, canned tuna and meat, cereals, cookies, crackers, high-protein energy bars, drinks and snacks, infant formulas, low- fat peanut butter, processed meats, sauces, chips, canned broths and soups, condiments and salad dressings (Bragg’s Liquid Aminos) USE EXTRA CAUTION WITH ASIAN CUISINE: Asian cuisine are considered high-risk for people with soy allergy due to the common use of soy as an ingredient and the possibility of cross-contamination, even if a soy-free item is ordered. -

The Power of Peaceful Activism | Vegfund Blog
4/19/13 The Power of Peaceful Activism | VegFund Blog The Power of Peaceful Activism Posted on March 14, 2013 Corey Lee Wrenn, VegFund’s Spring 2013 intern, discusses the history of peaceful activism and why it’s effective. Nonviolence in social movement activism has a long and successful history and works for one very important reason: it attracts people. The more people who are attracted to the movement, the more resources a HOM E movement can gather, and the more successful that movement will be. ABOUT US Nonviolent activism has been central to most social movements. In a survey of over three hundred social movements in the 20th century, Chenoweth and Stephan (2011) found that nonviolent movements were likely to succeed because they increased participation and movement resources. They also tend to lead to PROGRAM S lasting success when a movement accomplishes its goals. VOLUNTEER & INTERN Nonviolent means were hugely popular with most anti-slavery advocates and were important for laying the groundwork for emancipation. Advocates swamped the U.S. mail with abolitionist literature, flooded CONTACT US Congress with petitions, assisted runaways, even boycotted slave-made products such as cotton and sugar. These tactics were low-risk and made participation easy and inviting for all. Without these methods, utilized WHY VEG? for decades before the Civil War, the abolition of slavery would not have even registered in public sentiment, much less the Union agenda. BLOG The Civil Rights movement of the twentieth century also successfully utilized nonviolent protest to raise – 2013 awareness and elicit public sympathy. Marches, sit-ins, and Freedom Riders who rode buses into + March (5) segregated states all utilized peaceful means to convey moral issues in a non-threatening way. -

Why Vegan Becoming Vegan Is a Powerful Way to Oppose Cruelty to Animals the Animals We Eat
WHY VEGAN Becoming Vegan Is A Powerful Way To Oppose Cruelty To Animals THE ANIMALS WE EAT We love dogs and cats, and make them part of our families—if we were to witness them being slaughtered as farm animals are we’d be horrified. Yet pigs, cows, and chickens also have individual personalities, feel pain, and fear danger. Protecting dogs and cats while exploiting cows, pigs, and chickens is speciesism—harming individuals because they belong to a different species. If it’s wrong to kill our companion animals for food, then it’s also wrong to kill chickens and pigs, as there are no morally significant differences between them. Our society turns a blind eye to farm animals—but it’s time for that to change. Fortunately, you don’t need to eat animal foods to be healthy or to have high- protein, satisfying meals. There are even plant-based versions of most of your favorite comfort foods. Read on to find out how going vegan can help fight speciesism! “ Many of the nation’s most routine animal farming practices would be illegal if perpetrated against cats and dogs.” Jonathan Lovvorn, Chief Counsel, The Humane Society of the United States Male chicks being dropped into a grinding machine. MEET SCARLEtt Like all chickens, Scarlett has a unique personality. Studies show that chickens also have a sense of time and they anticipate the future. Scarlett was raised for her eggs in a cage-free facility and was suffering terribly when she was rescued, but now she lives in a loving home. -
