In 1996, when Howard Lyman warned America on The Oprah Winfrey Show that Mad Cow Disease was coming to America, offended cattlemen sued him and Oprah both. Not only were Lyman and Oprah vindicated in court, but events have proved many of Lyman's predictions absolutely right. Mad Cow Disease has come to America, and Lyman argues persuasively in No More Bull! that the problem will only grow more deadly until our government deals with it seriously. In Mad Cowboy, Lyman, a fourth-generation Montana rancher turned vegetarian then vegan, told the story of his personal transformation after a spinal tumor, which he believes was caused by agricultural chemicals, nearly left him paralyzed. In No More Bull!, Lyman uses his humor, compassion, firsthand experience in agriculture, and command of the facts of health to argue that we might all profit by transforming our diets. He makes a powerful case that Alzheimer's is yet another disease linked to eating meat. And he explains that the steak at the heart of your dinner plate not only may destroy your own heart but actually offers no more nutritional value than a doughnut! If you've been confused by the competing claims of the Atkins Diet, the South Beach Diet, and other fad diets, No More Bull! is the book that will set you straight. Its pure, unvarnished truth is told with down-home common sense. Lyman's got a message for meat eaters, vegetarians, and vegans -- and the message of No More Bull! is that we can all do better for ourselves and the planet.

It's basic knowledge that vegetarians must find alternative sources of nutrients such as proteins, but women's unique nutritional needs require a more complex approach, especially during periods in the female life cycle when deficiencies are most likely to develop: adolescence, pregnancy, and post-menopause. This informative book explains how to maintain optimum health with a vegetarian diet both for ovo-lacto vegetarians and vegans, and explores illness prevention, weight concerns, and athleticism as they relate to nonmeat diets.

We all have ideas about what we like and don't like when it comes to food. The problem is that, beyond this very basic consideration, many (or even most) of us don't put much thought into what we eat. Is this healthy? Where did it come from and how'd it end up on the plate? As long as it's there, edible, and desirable, why ask questions? In this book, Staci Marquez-Nichols encourages us to do just that. If you're thinking of making the leap into a vegetarian lifestyle, use these tips to build a foundation of dietary knowledge and keep yourself healthy during the transition and beyond. Maybe you're a vegetarian-in-training and you've already made the decision to stop eating meat. If so, you'll find extra encouragement since the author herself started out as an omnivore. The teasing, temptation, miscommunication, etc. that results from becoming a vegetarian... well, she's been through that already, and with her advice, maybe you won't have to (or at least you'll be more prepared for it if you do). If you're an omnivore, don't discount a book on vegetarianism just yet. Aside from tips on how to live a healthy vegetarian life, Staci also advocates what I'm going to call "dietary diplomacy." She realizes that, no matter what diet we adhere to, the decisions about what we eat are deeply personal. This means that all of us, vegetarians and meat eaters alike, have a responsibility to respect one another's lifestyles.

This book expresses the sentiments held by millions of people - people of wisdom and compassion - over countless generations, who have chosen to live without taking the lives of other beings, merely to sustain their own existences.Through simple aphorisms and gentle illustrations, it explains how these individuals have chosen a way of life, not merely a diet; how they have sought to live in peace with all beings with whom they share this planet; and how they recognize that only when humankind acts humane, caring, and justly toward all beings will there be peace on this planet. This book is their story.
