“Caring about what you eat and trying to make it tasty and educate the public is not some kind of fringe activity of tree huggers but, a matter of fundamental survival and continued vitality of our society starting right here with my family and my employees.”

Poor Harvey Levin.

The main man behind one of the largest gossip brands had one of the worst days of his life when everybody at TMZ decided to give him grief for being a vegetarian and wearing some strange looking pink shirt with palm trees on it.

Okay so the last action did warrant some teasing…

In what will hopefully set a precedent to what will take place in states with similar pending legislation, a bill that would criminalize undercover investigators who obtain photographic evidence of animal cruelty on farms was not passed before the Florida legislative session ended.

Dubbed “gag-ag” bills, these attempts to silence what goes on in farms across the U.S. could cost human lives in addition to allowing animals to continue to be harmed.

Ever wonder what the best snacks to eat before and after a long run are if you’re a vegan who’s interested in maximum performance? Look no further than to triathlete Brendan Brazier. Brazier is the author of Thrive Diet and soon to be released Whole Foods to Thrive: Nutrient-Dense, Plant-Based Recipes for Peak Health.

He also created VEGA, a line of whole food, vegan nutritional shakes, bars and other supplements which happen to fall under his pre-workout food suggestions.

“Pre-run, it’s about getting the body the reserve energy it’ll need to sustain the run,” Brazier said. “Half a banana and a few dates, almond milk mixed together with a scoop of the Vega Sport Optimizer or some pseudo-grains, like quinoa, mixed with fruits and almonds are a good energy boost.”
