102 Year Old Vegan Surgeon – Why He’s Been A Vegan

From Plato and Nietzsche all the way to pop icons like Paul McCartney and Bob Marley, to political leaders like Gandhi and Benjamin Franklin, have all advocated a vegetarian diet.

“Veganism is a very fine form of nutrition. It’s a little extreme to tell a person who is using flesh foods that you’re going to take everything entirely away from them. When I was in practice in medicine, I would tell the patients that the vegetable-based diet was the healthy way to go, and to keep away from animal products as much as possible. People are very sensitive about what they eat. You can talk to people about exercising relaxation, good mental attitude and they will accept that. But you talk to them about what they are eating and people are very sensitive about that. If an individual is willing to listen, I will try to explain to them on a scientific basis how I think it’s better for them.” – Dr. Ellsworth Wareham
