Q: How are the vegan cooking shows associated with Supreme Master Television and Loving Hut?
The cooking show is currently held under the organization Vegan Los Angeles (in the process of becoming an independent non-profit organization). The founders of Vegan Los Angeles are from the Supreme Master International Association, which is a spiritual group teaching compassion to all beings, with all members being vegan. However, Vegan Los Angeles was created with the purpose of spreading the benefits of the vegan diet for the environment, animal welfare, economy, and betterment of our health. The Loving Hut of Los Angeles is a supporting organization of Vegan Los Angeles - they often give us permission to utilize their space to hold our events.Q: How do vegans obtain B12?
Vitamin B12 is actually produced by bacteria living inside our intestinals, which are then absorbed through our digestive tract. So contrary to popular myth, in order to maintain a healthy level of vitamin B12, we need not intake B12 from animal products but instead need to make sure that our intestinal system is at its strongest. If you are eating a lot of animal and dairy products, often your intestinal system gets "clogged" with a thick layer of hard-to-digest animal proteins, reducing the body's natural ability to produce B12. Vegans, however, are able to maintain their B12 level by eating more raw fruits and vegetables, which cleans the intestinal system and allows for it to produce its optimal level of vitamin B12 naturally, without the need of outside sources of B12. However, there are plant-based B-12 in vegetables such as tofus, tempehs, sea vegetables, aloe vera, which depend on root-level microorganisms to produce the vitamin.
Q: Is it ok to eat meat which labels there are no antibiotics in their feed?
Anitibiotics fed to livestock in order to keep them looking "healthy" is detrimental to humans who consume the meat. However, it is definitely not the only concern about livestock products. Aside from anitibiotics, livestock often develop viral and bacterial food-borne diseases, cancer, mad cow disease, etc., which are more deadly than the effects caused by the antibiotics. We will be healthiest by abstaining from all animal products.
Q: Diseases such as Tuberculosis is transmitted from human to human, how is it related to goats?
It is true that many diseases are now being widely transmitted from human to human, but the ultimate source of the disease, such as tuberculosis, did not originate from the human body. Tuberculosis bacteria first originated from the intestines of a goat, and many other diseases which exist in this world came from animals. The only way to prevent these diseases and more deadly epidemics from developing in the future is to stop the unnatural production and exploitation of livestock - stop giving these diseases a platform to originate and spread.
