Billy Ocean

At 62, soulful British R & B singer Billy Ocean is looking better than some men half his age. He attributes this to the vegetarian diet he adopted two decades ago.

Add this to the fact that he runs every day, tends to a garden and avoids taking medications intended to promote “health” and you get a formula for someone who’ll likely see 20 more years of prosperity.

“When my mother died from ovarian cancer in 1989, it transformed my life. I looked at how she’d lived — an honest, incredibly hard-working woman — only to die just three years after I was successful enough to buy her a house and take care of her,” he said.

Cornelia Guest

“I would tell her to read about what she’s doing and putting into her body. True education will only protect you and it’s important to learn about what you’re eating, wearing, etc. I think it’s important to know that our decisions affect animals. Then, people can make intelligent decisions and know there are intelligent alternatives out there.”

Cornelia Guest, during an interview, when asked what one vegan change she’d like a person to make in their life.
