Learn why going vegan is incredible for not only your health, but the health of your children and the planet. So much of what we learn about nutrition in school and through campaigns by the meat and dairy industry is wrong. In a country where the most prescribed drug is Prilosec, clearly we are not eating in alignment with what our bodies actually need and want. In this episode you will learn the incredible health benefits of going vegan, and how it can eradicate world hunger, global warming, and gross abuses against animals. Whatever your core interest in veganism may be, you will definitely want to hear what Amy has to say.  Amy Jean Davis Amy Jean Davis is an animal rights advocate and the Founder of LA Animal Save (www.laanimalsave.org), the Los Angeles chapter of the global Save Movement. Originally from a small town in Indiana, Amy came to Los Angeles in 2008 as a top 24 Finalist on season 7 of American Idol. Davis started an animal sanctuary in the Los Angeles, California area. In 2015, she completed her certificate in Plant Based Nutrition from eCornell, and in 2016, Amy founded LA Animal Save, which is now the largest chapter of more than 600 Save groups worldwide.  About LA Animal Save: Founded in 2016 by Amy Jean Davis, LA Animal Save (http://laanimalsave.org) is the largest chapter of the 600+ Save Movement groups around the world. The Save Movement (www.TheSaveMovement.org), which began in Toronto, Canada, bears witness to the suffering and oppression of pigs, cows, chickens and other farmed animals en route to slaughter. Using a love-based, community-organizing approach, volunteer animal rights advocates hold regular, peaceful vigils at slaughterhouses, live markets, and factory farms in order to be present in the face of animal injustice, raise awareness about the plight of farmed animals, help people to become vegan, and continue to build a grassroots animal justice movement based on the principles of animal equality and freedom.
