Survey respondents shared their feelings and experiences
VEGAN FROM THE INSIDE
A 2011 survey, Vegan From the Inside, shatters six common myths that may prevent more people from enjoying the benefits of a plant-based diet. 2,068 vegans from the United States and around the world candidly shared the joys, rewards, and challenges of their food choices.

Comments on the Survey
Dr. Pam Popper, Executive Director of the Wellness Forum, observes the significance of survey findings: “Finally, some documentation showing what those of us who have been teaching people to adopt a plant-based diet for years have known all along. The diet is easy, people love it, they get great results, and they generally stick with it.”
