Paul Nison talks about why he is no longer vegan

I found the following videos very interesting:

As you may already know, I follow a non-vegan raw diet. I regularly include a small piece of cheese made from unpasteurised goat or sheep milk in my diet and more recently I’ve started to include a very small amount of fish, this is tending to be once every couple of months. The reason I do this is that it seems to cover any nutritional deficiencies in my diet. I believe that cravings are a sign of nutritional deficiencies and when I eat a small amount of animal produce I no longer get any cravings.

No animals in the wild are vegan – even cows eat insects along with the grass they consume and our closest relatives in the animal kingdom, Bonobos, eat insects and occasionally small mammals. I actually think eating insects would be a lot more natural for us but this is difficult when living in the city but when I’m living in a situation closer to nature then I plan to try and replace the animal produce I currently eat with insects.
