REVIEWS
“An
easy-to-read, unbiased overview of food and nutrition. Hugely enjoyable
and engaging. You Don’t Have To be a Treehugger
To Be a Vegan is a must read for anyone who cares
about their health and what they eat. I never knew that Albert Einstein,
Benjamin Franklin and Leonardo da Vinci were vegetarians!”
--- Robert Shrifter, M.D. |

“Prepare
to be entertained. You Don’t Have To be a Treehugger
To Be a Vegan is insightful, objective and informative-
a light-hearted look at diet and health. I never knew that salmon
had more cholesterol than a double cheeseburger.”
--- Adrienne Harper, M.D., F.A.C.O.G. |

“I
had always thought about how great it would be to become either
vegetarian or vegan. But when a dripping slab of meat was put in
front of me, I thought I could never really do that... then I ate
the entire thing. At the end of the meal, it was back to "you
know, I should really go vegan". So, the title of this book
got me curious and I picked up a copy. I was sucked in from the
first chapter. I learned as much as I was entertained. Now, I am
a vegan. I feel better, I look better, and most importantly, I wasn't
badgered into it. This book helped me make the decision myself.
I hope this is not the last that we hear from Dan Vishny.

| “If
you're vegan, or thinking about becoming one, this is your most
valuable resource! Dan Vishny has taken a terrifically light-hearted
and to-the-point approach to showing the way to better nutrition.
He doesn’t waste time sermonizing, building arguments, or
utilizing fads. On the contrary, this is the most practical and
concise guide that vegans need to help build a well-balanced lifestyle.
The style is so approachable that you would think that it was your
buddy coaching you along the path to good health. It’s worth
its weight in tofu.”
--- Adam Hechtman, Director of Microsoft Technology Center, Microsoft
Corporation, Chicago, IL |

| “I
want to thank you for your book: it's the first time a book about
food made me smile and it all makes so much sense. It got me ready
to start as soon as I finished reading it.

| "Let's
see...so far I am hooked on popcorn/Bragg's/nutritional yeast. That
has become my favorite snack, and thanks to the Bragg's, the popcorn
does not give me a sugar low. Your Mexicali chili was the bomb,
and I am making the vegan lasagna tonight. I am pretty much off
dairy, except when I need a cup of Joe while travelling and soy
milk is not an option. I tried the maple syrup, but it was way too
sweet for me. Guess I will have to carry my own soy milk and creamer
when I go on your 30 day plan. Avoiding dairy has been a remarkable
discovery. I have always had sinus problems and I am actually breathing
through my nose again, even while I sleep, and it is wonderful!
Absolutely wonderful! I didn't realize how good I was breathing
until I slipped and had an egg- cheese quesadilla the other day
on the plane. (It was the only meal left and I was starving!) Literally
within 15 minutes my sinuses clogged and I noticed a huge difference
in my airways. Weird thing is, the quesadilla didn't have that much
cheese on it, but enough to affect me."

"I
truly enjoyed reading the book. I thought the book had a nice balance
between education and humor- I learned a lot and laughed a lot.

| "This
book made me rethink my eating habits and provided dietary answers
that will go a long way. You Don't Have to be a Treehugger
To Be a Vegan is a must read for anyone who is tired
of fad diets and disappointing results."

"The
book has an easy to follow core message that gets delivered without
preaching. I especially enjoyed the humor and interesting facts
sprinkled throughout. I changed my diet so I eat vegan 5 out of
every 6 meals. I've lost weight, but more importantly I feel great.
I can't wait to get my next soy latte!"
--- Malcolm Hodge, Vice President |

| "I
got the book last night and I immediately started reading, even
before doing my homework! I couldn't put it down though, and now
I'm about half finished. It's a very easy read, and I LOVE it, so
far. It's definitely not the typical diet book, and I love how you
throw in the jokes and funny comments. The comics don't hurt either.
I'm not saying I'm going to be a vegan, but it's definitely something
to think about. You made me feel bad when I was making my lunch,
so instead of my usual roast beef and cheese sandwich, with chips,
cookies, and Pepsi, I made a tuna sandwich with strawberry apple
sauce, banana, and water. It was just as good."
