“I think that the only reason I don’t look like I’m a 130 years old after a lifetime of touring so much and living in hotel rooms, and drinking too much, is that I’ve been a vegan now for 22 years. Normally friends of mine, when they wake up and they’re hungover, they go out and have bacon and eggs and smoke cigarettes. When I wake up, I have a smoothie and vegan burritos. So for anyone who plans on drinking a lot or taking drugs, I do advocate a vegan lifestyle to try and offset it a little bit.”

– Music artist Moby in a recent interview with Black Book magazine.

    That’s definitely a new one, but honestly it makes sense. :D

    Wow. What a dumb thing to say.

    Heh heh, not that new. Maybe it’s new to hear a celebrity saying it, but I’ve considered veganism my own personal fountain of youth for years. It’s the reason I can still party like a college kid, but no one knows how old I actually am.

    I’ve considered meat eating my own personal fountain of youth for years. It’s the reason I can still party like a college kid, but no one knows how old I actually am.

    See how useful these types of anecdotal stories are?

    Why don’t you tell us your real name for once and let us be the judge how young (or old) you look.

    And Dr. Dean Ornish (who I worked for – Oprah’s doc) has done plenty of studies (not anecdotal) to prove that you live longer on a no meat diet… Sorry to burst your bubble.

    Erin, I don’t understand your fixation on knowing my real name. It just leads me to believe that you think it is somehow relevant to the argument – a common fallacy. I have no intention of doing it and I sincerely hope you don’t publish your real name either. It can only have negative consequences.

    As for Dr. Dean Ornish, I went through his list of publications but failed to find the proof. Could you please cite the paper you’re referring to.
