"The Holistic Holiday at Sea™ cruise is a transforming experience. It's an opportunity to expand your knowledge and eat perfectly healthy foods while relaxing in the beautiful Caribbean. It wouldn't surprise me if you came back from your vacation a different person."

Vegan Guide

Useful links, Articles and Information for how to Become Vegan

Some of our readers have been asking where we get all the information we use in or blogs about vegan diets and healthy living. With such a wealth of sources available on the internet – some good and some bad – we thought we’d take this time to offer a few of what we’ve found to be the most helpful in compiling a Holistic Holiday vegan guide to a healthier lifestyle.

Vegan Guide – Shopping

Along with the chain stores like Whole Foods Market and Trader Joe’s, there are many specialty stores available in any around any major city which cater to the vegan market. The trick is to look for ingredients in foods that you wouldn’t ordinarily consider when shopping. Some of the most commonly mistaken ingredients include dairy, gelling agents, medicines with shellec coating, and cleaning products that contain animal fat. Check out Vegan Outreach for a list of vegan guide to products including some of my favorite like Silk and Trader Joe’s Roasted Vegetable Pizza. Zappos.com, powerhouse of online shoe shopping, has one of the largest lists of vegan shoes, available for men, women and children at similar prices as the non-vegan variety. If you’re looking for a one-stop shop of vegan stores, check out PETAMall.com for a great guide to everything from beauty products, cloths, to kids toys.

Vegan Guide – Current News

The PETA website has one of the most extensive vegan guide sites and noteworthy networks of celebrity endorsements and information databases available. Use their RSS feed for notifications on everything from cases of animal cruelty, news and PSA’s and ways you can be a part of community outreach programs in your city. PETA has a long history and solid network of dedicated members who can guide you to the information you need to pursue a more health and sustainable lifestyle.

Vegan Guide – Alltop “Vegan” Blogs

For a list of blogs and top stories associated with everything vegan, check out the vegan topic section of Alltop. With this, you will find a guide to some of popular stories, relevant blogs and images available in a easy-to-browse format. Of course, you can always search Google blogs for up-to-the-minute posts of vegan topics, covering all the major blog platforms including Blogspot and Wordpress.
