Husband goes back to eating meat -thank you and any good books?

[Guest guest]

well thank you for your understanding and encouraging replies on this

topic. It is good to hear that it is working out in some families

and I certainly intend to do my best to keep the harmony in the

family. He hasn't eaten any meat yet (I think it's been 5 days now)

so the jury is still out if he is going to get sick or feel really

really bad about doing it (let's hope).

 

With this big change, I feel the strong desire to start reading up on

all of the benefits and reasons to not eat meat. I was very well

read and quite passionate about this cause back in college, but now

it's just part of me and I don't have all the statistics fresh in my

mind. I certainly know the basics but the details I need to recall

in conversations are really not fresh in my head these days. I need

to feel really strong and confident in my belief. Any

recommendations? I'd not like to get super depressed (like from

reading Diet For a New America, which I have) but want to get lot of

supportive information from credible sources. I have books here but

I realized they are now about 20 years old, and I'd like to read

about what more recent research is saying. So, any books you would

highly recommend, please shoot the titles my way - thanks.

Hands down, The China Study.  It looks at vegetarianism from a strictly

nutritional standpoint.  

 

For a wonderful video looking at vegetarianism from a mostly environmental

(slightly religious) perspective, watch  " A Sacred Duty " . 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9RxmTGHZgE.  There are a few horrid images from

a feedlot towards the end, definitely not for children.

I recommend " Living Among Meat Eaters " - it is a great book.  I don't have a

meat-eating husband but it has helped me deal with other relatives.
