On my vegan journey, I feverishly pursued the help of books, documentaries, and websites, to ensure that I was savvy on the information. It’s so important when you’re in dialogue with others to have knowledge about being vegan.
Meanwhile, I’ve compiled a short list of resources that should help you learn for your own health, and to also help you be a vegan with knowledge. If you find some missing that you’d like to add, please leave in the comments.
