Milk – Necessary or Overrated?
In many discussions about veganism, the question often arises: Is cow’s milk healthy or perhaps even harmful to humans? The key point here is the term “excess.” In our vegan blog, we examine this question and explain why excessive consumption of cow’s milk can lead to health problems. Cow’s milk is hidden in many everyday products, even where we least expect it. This makes it easy to consume large amounts – a problem especially prevalent in European countries like Ireland and the United Kingdom.
In our vegan blog, we also take a closer look at this and many other controversial topics related to a vegan diet. You’ll find comprehensive articles offering a deep insight into the world of dairy products and their impacts on our health. In our vegan blog, you’ll discover the truth about milk and get valuable tips for a healthier and more sustainable lifestyle.

Key Studies
Studies are essential for gaining new insights across different fields. They can vary widely in participant numbers and duration. Generally, the longer a study runs and the more participants it has, the more data is available. With more data, you can draw more accurate conclusions. That’s why it’s especially important to review studies that provide precise and representative data.
On the topic of vegan nutrition and health, two very important studies stand out: the Adventist Health Study 2 (AHS-2) and the EPIC-Oxford Study. The AHS-2 includes 96,000 participants and is among the largest nutrition studies focusing on vegan diets. You can learn more about these and other studies in our vegan blog.

What Are the Consequences of Factory Farming?
It’s clear that if more and more people eat a vegan diet, animals stand to benefit. The key point here is factory farming. If factory farming is scaled back, not only do fewer animals have to die or suffer, but the environment is also relieved. Various factors of factory farming directly harm nature. For example, the animals’ feces from factory farming enter the groundwater. This introduces medication residues and other pollutants into the groundwater, which are not only harmful to the environment but also to us. Antibiotic-resistant germs make their way into the groundwater and thus into rivers and lakes, from which we draw our drinking water, among other uses.
