Helpful Score: 8
As a lacto-vegetarian, most of this information was not new to me, and it was very off-putting to read this long advertisement for PETA and veganism. I've seen this info put together better, with more resources cited, so it was just one big long reminder that vegans are better than all of us, right down to their fecal matter.
Also, they encourage people to eat way way waaayy too much over-processed meat substitutes, which seems to go against their message. If women are prone to breast-cancer, processed soy has phyto-estrogens, which research is finding encourages certain female cancers. Check it out, and see for yourself. That seemed irresponsible for them to not even touch on that risk, but to gleefully encourage their readers to eat foods made in labs, and not from nature.
