Those who seek entry into the mode of goodness, however, understand the value of. consuming organic vegetables, fresh fruits, whole grains, nuts, and, pure, whole non-violent strictly nonfactory farming milk. Vmda examines the negative effects of meat-based fare outlines the benefits of a vegetarian diet and explains how such a diet can help heal, strengthen, and purify the body.
