Even Vegans Die helps vegans to make the best decisions regarding their own health. Addressing issues like disease shaming and body shaming, this book presents a manifesto for a more effective vegan community.
This book celebrates the benefits of a plant-based diet while acknowledging that even vegans can get sick.
You’ll learn how to:
- Make the health care decisions that are right for you
- Ensure your efforts to help animals will not end after you die
- Provide compassionate care for yourself and for others in the face of serious illness
The book offers practical, thoughtful, and sensitive advice on creating a will, mourning, and caregiving.

Editorial Reviews
“At sanctuaries, we know better than anybody that everybody dies. We also know that people are most likely to hurt themselves or others when they mistake themselves for superheroes. Even Vegans Die offers a refreshing and essential antidote to all-too-human delusions of invincibility, while also arguing (accurately) that the vegan and animal advocacy movements will become more effective by embracing diversity, including diversity of body size and health experience. As a bonus, the book offers practical advice alongside astute analyses.” – Pattrice Jones, author, and co-founder of VINE Sanctuary
