Veganism research

Primary research
What do you know about veganism?
• From my first question, I felt
that my audience was quite
well informed about veganism
and know a lot about what they
do and stand for. “Veganism is
about causing least harm as
possible” People also went on
to list a variety of things vegans
do not consume such as meat
and dairy products. They also
mentioned other animal
products such as leather.
What are your opinions on the vegan lifestyle?
• I had split range of answers for
this question as some people
believed that the vegan
lifestyle is unhealthy and a lot
of effort as it does not stop the
way animals are treat. While
others believe the guilt free
lifestyle is very healthy for the
plant, mind and body. “I love it!
No better feeling than causing
no harm to animals and I've
never felt healthier"
Are you a vegan or ever considered becoming a
vegan?
• The majority of my
audience are not or would
not want to be vegan
while one individual would
“be a vegetarian”. The rest
of my audience are already
vegan. This gives my
questionnaire more of a
balance between the
answers I receive from
both perspectives.
If yes, what are your main reasons for becoming
vegan?
• Both of my audiences
reasons for becoming a
vegan was due to the
cruel way animals are
treat and could not live
with the guilt of eating
products from animals.
“became vegan after a
friend educated me
about the harsh truth of
the dairy industry.”
If no, what are your main reasons for not
becoming a vegan?
• The majority of my
audience could not give
up animal products
such as meat and dairy,
while others could not
think of what they could
eat as a vegan and
would find it very time
consuming and difficult
to adapt to.
What would be or is the animal products you
miss the most?
• The main animal product
people would miss if they
became vegan is cheese. I also
found that chocolate and meat
would be what others miss. One
individuals response was suede
shoes which I found interesting
as I feel the majority only think
about the food we get from
animals. One individual was
very happy with vegan
alternatives and does not miss
any animal products.
Have you ever tried any vegan substitutes and
what are they like?
• The majority of my
audience had tried vegan
products and were
satisfied with the taste.
Some products were better
than others, where as
some people try to keep
their diet as natural as
possible. A small number of
my audience had not tried
an vegan substitutes.
Secondary research
Veganism definition
• Summary:
• I found from the vegan society website a lot more about a vegan
lifestyle and how effects all different aspects in life rather than
just diet. I found there is a wide range of substitutes to animal
products and alternatives not only in diet, but also with clothing
and make up. As all mediation in the UK must be tested on
animals, vegans are not encourage to avoid it “The Vegan Society
DOES NOT recommend you avoid medication prescribed to you
by your doctor - a dead vegan is no good to anyone!” instead
they ;look for mediation that does not contain gelatin or lactose.
Animals used for entertainment purposes are also not supported
by vegans.

• Quotes from the Vegan society:
• “Veganism is a way of living which seeks to exclude, as far as is possible and practicable,
all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other
purpose.”
• “to seek an end to the use of animals by man for food, commodities, work, hunting,
vivisection, and by all other uses involving exploitation of animal life by man.”
• “A philosophy and way of living.”
• “From curry to cake, pasties to pizzas, all your favourite things can be suitable for a
vegan diet if they're made with plant-based ingredients.”
• “Vegans avoid exploiting animals for any purpose, with compassion being a key reason
many choose a vegan lifestyle.”
• “Currently all medicine in the UK must be tested on animals before it is deemed safe for
human use, but please note: The Vegan Society DOES NOT recommend you avoid
medication prescribed to you by your doctor - a dead vegan is no good to anyone!”
• “Vegans choose not to support animal exploitation in any form and so avoid visiting zoos
or aquariums, or taking part in dog or horse racing.”

• “Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of animal products, particularly in
diet, and an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of animals”
• “A follower of veganism is known as a vegan.”
• “Dietary vegans (or strict vegetarians) refrain from consuming animal products, not only
meat but also eggs, dairy products and other animal-derived substances. “
• “The term ethical vegan is often applied to those who not only follow a vegan diet but
extend the philosophy into other areas of their lives, and oppose the use of animals for
any purpose.”
• “Another term is environmental veganism, which refers to the avoidance of animal
products on the premise that the harvesting or industrial farming of animals is
environmentally damaging and unsustainable.[“
• “Vegan diets tend to be higher in dietary fibre, magnesium, folic acid, vitamin C, vitamin
E, iron and phytochemicals, and lower in calories, saturated fat, cholesterol, long-chain
omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, calcium, zinc and vitamin B12”
• “researchers agree that vegans should eat B12-fortified foods or take a supplement.”

• Quotes from Veganuary website:
• “Anaemia has many different causes; inherited conditions, alcohol,
certain prescription drugs, heavy periods, nutritional problems, some
chronic diseases and malabsorption states, to name a few.”
• “From a nutritional point of view, anaemia can be caused by a
dietary deficiency of folic acid, vitamin B12 or iron. As a vegan,
vitamin B12 is the only vitamin that needs to be taken either as a
regular oral supplement, or by regular intake of fortified foods. There
is plenty of folic acid in a healthy vegan diet, the primary sources
being green leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, beans, peas, pulses and
nuts.”
• “Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional cause of anaemia. It
is estimated that 3% of men and 8% of women in the UK have iron
deficiency anaemia (whether vegan or not).”
• Validation of sources:
• The sources for this answer is a link to the
nutritional section on the veganuary website. The
NHS website is referenced on this page as well as
other books about veganism.

• Summary
• This questions answers if
veganism or extreme or
not. The answer makes a
good point that it seems
extreme as it is out of the
norm of the majority.
Vegan food is made out of
everyday ingredients and is
easily assessable.

Extreme lifestyle
• Quotes from Veganuary website:
• “It depends on how you think about it. In the context of a
world that habitually uses and consumes animals, choosing
not to do so can seem extreme – but only because it differs
from what most people do.”
• “However, our society also provides us with plant-based foods
that are abundant, affordable, tasty, nutritious and easy to
prepare, and considering this it actually seems rather extreme
to farm and slaughter animals when so many alternatives are
available.”
• “Vegan food itself is not extreme and is mostly made from
everyday ingredients that happen to be plant-based – such as
beans, whole grains, nuts and common vegetables.”
• Validation of sources:
• No sources are referenced for this answer, it is
more just a generalisation and point of view of
vegans. I can make sure the information is correct
by finding other sources however, from what I
already know about the topic the answer does
seem correct.
• Further research:
• To further my research I can find out more opinions
on this question of extremism and look for research
into how it effects your health.

• Quotes from Veganuary website:
• “The majority of vegans were brought up eating
meat and viewed eating animal products as normal
for at least their early childhood.”
• “Being brought up with particular foods doesn’t
mean you need to continue eating them, and many
childhood ‘comfort foods’ can be successfully
veganised with a few simple ingredient
replacements.”
• Validation of sources:
• I feel that this source is more personal
opinion/reason compared to being backed up by
any evidence. However, due to the nature of the

• Quotes from Veganuary website:
• “Any diet needs to be carefully planned to ensure correct nutrition, and
with growing children this becomes even more important.”
• “However, there is no evidence to show that children eating a balanced,
properly supplemented vegan diet are any less healthy than meat or dairy-
eating children.”
• “In fact, vegan parents are often better informed about nutrition and well-
cared for vegan kids may eat healthier than many omnivorous ones whose
diet often includes too much junk food and not enough fruit and
vegetables.”
• “The most important thing to bear in mind is that the low-fat, high-fibre
diet recommended for adults (which a plant-based diet is perfect for) is not
suitable for children.”
• “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.”
• Validation of sources:
• The sources used to create this answer are listed and
hyperlinked throughout the article and takes me to
reliable websites such as the Guardian and the NHS.
This makes the answer reliable.

• Summary
• I found this article very interesting as it is
a controversial subject for vegans. As
medication must be tested on animals,
they face the risk of not getting better or
having to take the medication that has
been forced upon animals. It advises
vegans to take medication prescribed by
the doctor as they should put themselves
first.
• Household products are also spoke about
and told to be avoided.

• Quotes from Veganuary website:
• “All medicines by law are tested on animals.
Therefore consumers cannot choose between
animal tested and non-animal tested medicines.”
• “The situation is different with regard to cosmetics
and some household products, where consumers
can choose to boycott animal tested products and
choose cruelty free ones.”
• “the fact that medicines have been tested on
animals does not guarantee their safety or
effectiveness in humans.”
• Validation of sources:
• A medical website is linked to the answer to
help vegans find out more about medication
and healthier,safer alternatives.
• Further research:

• Summary
• Vitamin B12 is essential for a
healthy diet and needed to
keep your body healthy.
Vitamin B12 is found in meat
due to bacteria and can also be
found in fortified foods such as
cereal. Vegans usually need to
take vitamin B12 as a
supplement to make sure they
are meeting their needs.

Vitamin B12
• Quotes from Veganuary website:
• “It’s true that human beings evolved the ability to digest
a wide range of foods including meat, but this isn’t the
same as needing meat for survival.”
• “This vitamin is present in animal products, but it isn’t
made by the animals themselves, it’s created by bacteria
that live inside them.”
• “The B12 used in vegan supplements or fortified foods
such as Marmite is made by ‘farming’ the bacteria directly
and harvesting the vitamin, so it’s the same substance
made in exactly the same way.”
• Validation of sources:
• Their is no sources for this answer but it is linked
to the other page on the website. I can make
sure this is correct by further research.
• Further research:
• To further my research, I can find out more
information about Vitamin B12 from other, more
reliable sites such as the NHS website.

• “It all started out in a beautiful haze of green veg, seitan and flax seed”
• “I’ve watched Earthlings and Cowspiracy. I’ve got my vegan truths and
facts right.”
• “I know that dairy is just about the cruelest industry ever to exist, yet those
crisps, yogurt-coated cereal bars and milk chocolate covered toffees cry to
me quietly every evening.”
• “I confess, when I’m tired, hungry and emotionally drained I have forsaken
all I know to be true and eaten those little packages of cruelty.”
• “I refuse to beat myself up about this as I genuinely believe that being any-
percent vegan is better than none. I also think that this is a journey and so I
expect to have times when the road is more difficult to travel than others.”

• Vegan society quotes:
• “It's straight-forward to obtain enough iron when you eat a rainbow
of lightly processed vegetables, fruits and other whole-plant foods
each day. In fact, research has shown that vegans have average
iron intakes that are similar to or higher than those of non-vegans,
and higher than the recommended daily allowance.”
• “It's recommended by the UK's Department of Health that adults
receive between 8.7mg - 14.8mg a day dependent on factors such as
menstruation.”
• “Good plant sources of iron include dried fruits, whole grains
(including wholemeal bread), nuts, green leafy vegetables, seeds
and pulses. Other foods rich in iron but which are usually eaten in
smaller amounts include soya, some flours, parsley, watercress,
black molasses and edible seaweeds. ”
Vegan Society
• Vegan society quotes:
• “You need to include foods rich in vitamin C to help
your body absorb the iron in your meals. Vitamin C
is found in colourful fruits and vegetables such as
oranges, potatoes, cabbage, green leafy vegetables,
blackcurrants, broccoli, mango, kiwis and parsley.”
• “Caffeine and tannins can inhibit the body's
absorption of iron so it's best to avoid drinking tea,
coffee or cola at meal times. Stick to fruit juice or
water instead.”

Veganism research for booklet

  • 3. What do you know about veganism? • From my first question, I felt that my audience was quite well informed about veganism and know a lot about what they do and stand for. “Veganism is about causing least harm as possible” People also went on to list a variety of things vegans do not consume such as meat and dairy products. They also mentioned other animal products such as leather.
  • 4. What are your opinions on the vegan lifestyle? • I had split range of answers for this question as some people believed that the vegan lifestyle is unhealthy and a lot of effort as it does not stop the way animals are treat. While others believe the guilt free lifestyle is very healthy for the plant, mind and body. “I love it! No better feeling than causing no harm to animals and I've never felt healthier"
  • 5. Are you a vegan or ever considered becoming a vegan? • The majority of my audience are not or would not want to be vegan while one individual would “be a vegetarian”. The rest of my audience are already vegan. This gives my questionnaire more of a balance between the answers I receive from both perspectives.
  • 6. If yes, what are your main reasons for becoming vegan? • Both of my audiences reasons for becoming a vegan was due to the cruel way animals are treat and could not live with the guilt of eating products from animals. “became vegan after a friend educated me about the harsh truth of the dairy industry.”
  • 7. If no, what are your main reasons for not becoming a vegan? • The majority of my audience could not give up animal products such as meat and dairy, while others could not think of what they could eat as a vegan and would find it very time consuming and difficult to adapt to.
  • 8. What would be or is the animal products you miss the most? • The main animal product people would miss if they became vegan is cheese. I also found that chocolate and meat would be what others miss. One individuals response was suede shoes which I found interesting as I feel the majority only think about the food we get from animals. One individual was very happy with vegan alternatives and does not miss any animal products.
  • 9. Have you ever tried any vegan substitutes and what are they like? • The majority of my audience had tried vegan products and were satisfied with the taste. Some products were better than others, where as some people try to keep their diet as natural as possible. A small number of my audience had not tried an vegan substitutes.
  • 11. Veganism definition • Summary: • I found from the vegan society website a lot more about a vegan lifestyle and how effects all different aspects in life rather than just diet. I found there is a wide range of substitutes to animal products and alternatives not only in diet, but also with clothing and make up. As all mediation in the UK must be tested on animals, vegans are not encourage to avoid it “The Vegan Society DOES NOT recommend you avoid medication prescribed to you by your doctor - a dead vegan is no good to anyone!” instead they ;look for mediation that does not contain gelatin or lactose. Animals used for entertainment purposes are also not supported by vegans. https://www.vegansociety.com/go-vegan/definition-veganism • Tags: • Vegan • Veganism • Cruelty • Plant based • Diet • Living • Alternatives
  • 12. • Quotes from the Vegan society: • “Veganism is a way of living which seeks to exclude, as far as is possible and practicable, all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose.” • “to seek an end to the use of animals by man for food, commodities, work, hunting, vivisection, and by all other uses involving exploitation of animal life by man.” • “A philosophy and way of living.” • “From curry to cake, pasties to pizzas, all your favourite things can be suitable for a vegan diet if they're made with plant-based ingredients.” • “Vegans avoid exploiting animals for any purpose, with compassion being a key reason many choose a vegan lifestyle.” • “Currently all medicine in the UK must be tested on animals before it is deemed safe for human use, but please note: The Vegan Society DOES NOT recommend you avoid medication prescribed to you by your doctor - a dead vegan is no good to anyone!” • “Vegans choose not to support animal exploitation in any form and so avoid visiting zoos or aquariums, or taking part in dog or horse racing.” Veganism definition
  • 13. • Validation of sources: • The vegan society is a well known and long established organisation so I believe the information I have read to be true. Figures and extra information on topics have been linked to other websites, backing up the information written. • Further research: • I can further my research into veganism by looking at other society's websites and other online definitions. Veganism definition
  • 14. • Summary • In this article, the different types of veganism are defined and show how it impacts lifestyle as well as diet. The origin of the term vegan is also discussed in the article. • The impact of the diet is spoke about in detail and what the diet is lacking. It also shows how vegans deal with this through the use of supplements. https://en.wikip edia.org/wiki/Ve ganism Veganism definition • Tags • Vegan • Veganism • Diet • Lifestyle • Definition • Supplements • Ethical • Society • Vitamins • Disease
  • 15. • Quotes from Wikipedia: • “Veganism is the practice of abstaining from the use of animal products, particularly in diet, and an associated philosophy that rejects the commodity status of animals” • “A follower of veganism is known as a vegan.” • “Dietary vegans (or strict vegetarians) refrain from consuming animal products, not only meat but also eggs, dairy products and other animal-derived substances. “ • “The term ethical vegan is often applied to those who not only follow a vegan diet but extend the philosophy into other areas of their lives, and oppose the use of animals for any purpose.” • “Another term is environmental veganism, which refers to the avoidance of animal products on the premise that the harvesting or industrial farming of animals is environmentally damaging and unsustainable.[“ • “Vegan diets tend to be higher in dietary fibre, magnesium, folic acid, vitamin C, vitamin E, iron and phytochemicals, and lower in calories, saturated fat, cholesterol, long-chain omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, calcium, zinc and vitamin B12” • “researchers agree that vegans should eat B12-fortified foods or take a supplement.” Veganism definition
  • 16. • Validation of sources: • The sources for this article are linked throughout and listed at the bottom of the page. All authors and quotes are referenced. • Further research: • I can further my research by looking more into the sources that are listed and finding other opinions on what I have found out about Veganism. Veganism definition
  • 17. Health risks • Summary • This article is from the veganuary myths page where people can send in their questions and queries about veganism. This answer is specifically about anemia and if its safe to become a vegan if you have this condition. • The article gives the audience a well thought out response with a range of solutions of how to get enough iron in a vegan diet. http://www.veganuary.com/ myths/anaemic-safe-vegan/ • Tags • Vegan • Anemic • Iron • Safe • Health • Deficiency • Nutrition • Information
  • 18. Health risks • Quotes from Veganuary website: • “Anaemia has many different causes; inherited conditions, alcohol, certain prescription drugs, heavy periods, nutritional problems, some chronic diseases and malabsorption states, to name a few.” • “From a nutritional point of view, anaemia can be caused by a dietary deficiency of folic acid, vitamin B12 or iron. As a vegan, vitamin B12 is the only vitamin that needs to be taken either as a regular oral supplement, or by regular intake of fortified foods. There is plenty of folic acid in a healthy vegan diet, the primary sources being green leafy vegetables, citrus fruits, beans, peas, pulses and nuts.” • “Iron deficiency is the most common nutritional cause of anaemia. It is estimated that 3% of men and 8% of women in the UK have iron deficiency anaemia (whether vegan or not).”
  • 19. • Validation of sources: • The sources for this answer is a link to the nutritional section on the veganuary website. The NHS website is referenced on this page as well as other books about veganism. • Further research: • To further my research I could look for other answers to the question and more research to back it up. I can also read the other sources that are referenced on the veganuary website. Health risks
  • 20. Extreme lifestyle http://www.veganuary.com/ myths/veganism-just- extreme-though-isnt/ • Summary • This questions answers if veganism or extreme or not. The answer makes a good point that it seems extreme as it is out of the norm of the majority. Vegan food is made out of everyday ingredients and is easily assessable. • Tags • Vegan • Veganism • Extreme • Unusual • Majority • Animals • Plant based • Everyday • Ingredients
  • 21. Extreme lifestyle • Quotes from Veganuary website: • “It depends on how you think about it. In the context of a world that habitually uses and consumes animals, choosing not to do so can seem extreme – but only because it differs from what most people do.” • “However, our society also provides us with plant-based foods that are abundant, affordable, tasty, nutritious and easy to prepare, and considering this it actually seems rather extreme to farm and slaughter animals when so many alternatives are available.” • “Vegan food itself is not extreme and is mostly made from everyday ingredients that happen to be plant-based – such as beans, whole grains, nuts and common vegetables.”
  • 22. • Validation of sources: • No sources are referenced for this answer, it is more just a generalisation and point of view of vegans. I can make sure the information is correct by finding other sources however, from what I already know about the topic the answer does seem correct. • Further research: • To further my research I can find out more opinions on this question of extremism and look for research into how it effects your health. Extreme lifestyle
  • 23. Changing to vegan http://www.veganuary.com/ myths/can-eat-vegan-food- brought-eat-meat/ • Summary • This answer gives people an answer to why people become vegan and how easy it is to change to this lifestyle. • Tags • Vegan • Lifestyle • Meat • Alternatives • Reason
  • 24. Changing to vegan • Quotes from Veganuary website: • “The majority of vegans were brought up eating meat and viewed eating animal products as normal for at least their early childhood.” • “Being brought up with particular foods doesn’t mean you need to continue eating them, and many childhood ‘comfort foods’ can be successfully veganised with a few simple ingredient replacements.”
  • 25. • Validation of sources: • I feel that this source is more personal opinion/reason compared to being backed up by any evidence. However, due to the nature of the question I do agree with the response. • Further research: • I could further this research by looking for some more peoples opinions on this question. Changing to vegan
  • 26. Changing to vegan http://www.veganuary.com/ myths/a-vegan-diet-is- dangerous-for-children/ • Summary • This article tells parents how to make sure children get all the nutrients they need to grow and have a healthy diet. It contains links to other websites to help back up their claims. • Tags • Children • Health • Diet • Danger • Growth
  • 27. Changing to vegan • Quotes from Veganuary website: • “Any diet needs to be carefully planned to ensure correct nutrition, and with growing children this becomes even more important.” • “However, there is no evidence to show that children eating a balanced, properly supplemented vegan diet are any less healthy than meat or dairy- eating children.” • “In fact, vegan parents are often better informed about nutrition and well- cared for vegan kids may eat healthier than many omnivorous ones whose diet often includes too much junk food and not enough fruit and vegetables.” • “The most important thing to bear in mind is that the low-fat, high-fibre diet recommended for adults (which a plant-based diet is perfect for) is not suitable for children.” • “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.”
