Summary

Better sex, glowing skin, and more money…by going vegan

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

Critic reviews

"Gene Stone and Kathy Freston put forth a persuasive argument for a plant-based lifestyle" —​USA Today

“Through outstanding writing and research, Stone and Freston have made eating plant-based thoroughly compelling and enjoyable; read this book and get ready for some seriously positive changes.” —MICHAEL GREGER, author of How Not to Die and founder of NutritionFacts.org

“There are so many reasons why people are choosing to leave animals off their plates, from saving the planet and helping animals to improving health and boosting athletic performance. 72 Reasons to Be Vegan—equal parts inspiring, eye-opening, fun, and informative—explores all these benefits and many more.” —NEAL D. BARNARD, MD, FACC, founding president of the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine and author of Your Body in Balance

Handy but you've heard most of it before

This is a good book and I got it after a recomendation by Rip Esselstyn.
Unfortunately, I've heard most of this before from the likes of the Essie family, Dr Michael Greger etc, - so I am a bit disappointed.
The narration is a bit patronising as it sounds like they are reading to children.
This book is ideal for those who know little about plant based in which case it would make an excellent choice, especially as a gift.
I am disappointed and sorry to write this review, but felt you should know.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
