Howard Lyman - Plain truth from the Cattle Rancher who won't eat Meat - WOLFMAN PRODUCTIONS
 
Mad Cowboy
  
 


Howard Lyman has brought the issue of the dangers of eating beef to light like never before. A former cattle rancher-turned-vegetarian and food safety activist, in 1996, Lyman revealed, to a national television audience, how the cattle industry potentially exposed Americans to Mad Cow Disease by feeding cows the remains of live animals - including other cows. As a result of his remarks, Lyman was named a co-defendant with Oprah Winfrey in the infamous "veggie libel" case brought by Texas ranchers in Amarillo.

In 1989, the discovery of a rare spinal tumor led Lyman to examine his life. In his lectures, he tells the moving story of his own personal transformation, and how he became a crusader for organic farming and more conscious eating habits.

  He describes the devastating effects that modern feed lot operations are having - and will continue to have - on the environment, and also outlines the profound health benefits that switching to a vegetarian diet offers, including reducing the risk of cancer, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. After adopting a vegetarian diet, Lyman himself lost 130 pounds and lowered his cholesterol by more than 150 points.
