In October 2015 he was offered work in Ireland and a month later his wife and younger son flew across Europe while Zabetakis and his then 11-year-old son Nathaniel packed up the car, piled their two dogs into the backseat and set off across Europe.

Animal diet and Veganism – The ALEPH initiative

December 14, 2020 / Blog

Animal source foods (ASFs) are evolutionary foods and provide key nutrients. There is no reason to eliminate their consumption from a health perspective, well on the contrary.

O tempora, o Mores!
