Several years ago, in one of Angelina Jolie’s press conferences about her movie SALT, she reportedly said: “A big juicy steak is my beauty secret. But seriously, I love red meat. I was a vegan for a long time and it nearly killed me. I found I was not getting enough nutrition,” Jolie’s remarks caused passionate responses from vegans. For example, “The vegan diet saved my life. I’ve lost weight, my blood pressure is down, my cholesterol is lower and I have more energy.”
