This doctor is most likely a vegan himself and a member of PETA right?

Does it affect your intellectual ability? In other words does it make you smarter? If so, in what ways does it affect your learning process?

So it's strictly a health issue for you then or do you have issues with killing animals for food?

So it's not really an animal rights thing? It's just about what you believe is healthy?

no. a) i am not sure if he is vegan, though it would stand to reason b) vegan != peta.

i am vegan purely for health reasons. that isn't to say i support the practices of the meat industry, but that wasn't a factor in my decision.

I was not trying to imply that Vegan= Peta. It was two separate question however, google has helped me answer them.

Wiki

"Barnard is the partner of PETA president Ingrid Newkirk"

He is also on the list of notable people who practice (or practiced) veganism

the evidence suggests that a vegan/vegetarian diet will improve one's mental acuity. however, i haven't noticed a change in this regard since switching from vegetarianism to veganism. physically, though, i have observed a marked change. my body works better and i feel better.
