Kathy Freston wasn't born a vegan. The best-selling author and renowned wellness expert actually grew up on chicken-fried steak and cheesy grits and loved nothing more than BBQ ribs and vanilla milkshakes. Not until her 30s did she embrace the lifestyle of a veganist - someone who eats a plant-based diet not just for their own personal well-being but for the whole web of benefits it brings to our ecosystem and beyond. Kathy's shift toward this new life was gradual - she leaned into it - but the impact was profound.

Now Kathy shows us how to lean into the veganist life. Effortless weight loss, reversal of disease, environmental responsibility, spiritual awakening - these are just a few of the 10 profound changes that can be achieved through a gentle switch in food choices. Filled with compelling facts, stories of people who have improved their weight and health conditions as a result of making the switch, and Q&As with the leading medical researchers, Veganist concludes with a step-by-step practical guide to becoming a veganist, easily and gradually. It is an accessible, optimistic, and illuminating book that will change the way you eat forever. No less delicious, still hearty and satisfying - just better for you and for all.

Informative as to the reasons for being vegan. I like that the author stresses pb your own time, in your own way.

Gentle way to vegan

This is one of those audio books that I go back to all the time....it really was well put together, well researched and certainly gives a good nudging as a friend would do to possibly give a healthier way of living a try. I am going the route of the Vegan or Veganist now....too many facts point to the great benefits of this way of eating. Anyway kudos Kathy Freston!

Excellent Book - Really Good Research

I really enjoyed Kathy's explanations and details about choices for becoming vegan.It did get a bit gory in parts where she went into the industry, but the health information is really great. And it IS easy to start adding in a few vegan meals during the week. I'm excited and feel confident about trying it out.

Will be leaning into vegan

I am listening to the book now and I enjoy the content. The narrator reads terribly slow. I actually thought something was wrong with my audible app on my phone, but it was fine. The book is written for new vegans, or those considering veganism. She writes on how to ease into it. If you are already vegan, don't buy it, you'll be bored. I would rather read the book than listen to it, that's how bad the narrator is, and I listen to A LOT of books.

Slow Narrator makes it difficult to listen to

What made the experience of listening to Veganist the most enjoyable?

Very good information included here and added to my motivation to eat in a healthy manner.

What other book might you compare Veganist to and why?

I've read other books such as The China Study and Eat To Live and this was a good way for some of those concepts to be emphasized in my brain. I like that she gives many options for LEANING toward a plant based diet for those who are not yet ready to go "whole bean".

Have you listened to any of Karen White’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

N/S

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Read it in one day.

Any additional comments?

Enjoyed the book. I will probably listen to it again as it is very motivating.

Enjoyed this book!

I was intrigued by a CNN story by Dr. Sanjay Gupta called ???The Last Heart Attack.??? As I am a 58 year old male, this story peaked my interest and I began researching the various diets and their health benefits. Fortunately, I found this audio book right off the bat. I am now listening to the book for the 2nd time, since it is all new to me it takes a while for the information to settle in. So, my review is not intended to compare one resource to another, but I want to say that the book was exactly what I am looking for.

Kathy Freston makes the information personal and interesting and the book narrator is expressive without going overboard. It is obvious that Kathy Freston is passionate about the subject, but does not hit you over the head with a harsh, negative position. Instead, she provides a very rounded perspective of the vegan lifestyle and how they (we) fit into the mainstream, as well as interviews with leading experts on the subject. She also answers some of my questions. How do I relate to people now that I do not eat meat? Will I be considered odd? How do I handle invitations to someone's house for dinner or a cookout? Kathy has made me want to continue the vegan journey. I recommend this book.

Great resource for a beginner like me

Makes sense

I expect the author to defend her position, but she offers little margin for other points of view. It's not quite as solid science as she portrays it to be. Still, the book challenged me and opened my mind to some great vegan ideas. The animal treatment part is true (I've worked poultry and cattle), though her handling of the pig story was way too touchy feely, and detracts from her argument. Her biblical angle is solid, and I'd never considered how Genesis starts out as a vegan world. A good read. The narrator was slow and hard to listen to. I felt like someone was trying to hypnotize me. But I do recommend the book.

good ideas. Practical.

What did you love best about Veganist?

I liked the research, and most of the health claims are true as are the environmental impacts.

Would you recommend Veganist to your friends? Why or why not?

No. The narration was annoying, and the emphasis on guilt over our food choices I feel would cause people to shut out the possibility of going even vegetarian.

Would you be willing to try another one of Karen White’s performances?

No. I think she rehashes information over and over, and says very little that I did not already know. Her delivery is poor, and places too much emphasis on guilt as well as coming across as morally superior.

Mediocre
