YIV WEBSITE IS A HIT! Vaid Bharath has been associated with YIV from the beginning. He kindly offered to set up our website and on 12th September 2005 the site was launched. It has had over 2,500 hits since then and put us on the world stage! The British Library, a founder member of the UK Web Archiving Consortium, has selected our website for a pilot project to keep our publication in perpetuity. Basically the consortium will take the necessary preservation action to keep our site accessible over a long period of time. Thanks are due to Vaid for a professional job worthy of the British Library! Please visit the site: www.youngindianvegetarians.co.uk.

TWO MORE REASONS TO GO VEGAN! 1 According to research carried out at the University of Toronto, Canada, a Vegan diet reduces the cholesterol that clogs up arteries by 29% compared to the standard anti-cholesterol drug Lovastatin which drops levels by 30.9%. Almonds, soya, high-fibre cereals such as oats and barley and fresh fruit and vegetables can help prevent heart disease without medication. Every year 50,000 people die of cardiac disease linked to cholesterol. 2 Up to 500, 000 newborn male calves - the unwanted by product of milk production - are shot every year in the UK.
