If you read the book The China Study you will see that eating a plant based, vegan diet is what is the healthiest way to eat. This book has studies that were done over a 35 year period documenting the link between animal protein (in meat, dairy and eggs) and cancer, Heart disease, Diabetes and many other health problems. The less people eat of animal protein and fat the healthier they are.
Pure plant based vegan eating is healthy and you don't need to worry about protein like so many people think. Here is a link about the myths about protein http://www.theveggiegal.com/blog/?p=2255
You can get plenty of protein from healthy foods such as bean, nuts, seeds, leafy greens and more. All plants have protein in them it is in the exact right amount that nature intended and your body knows just what to do with it and it does not have added fat or cholesterol!
Here are some great recipes that you might love that are healthy and vegan. My daughter who will be 16 in a month is a vegan and is completely healthy and looks amazing and is in perfect shape.
