About

Michael is currently writing 2 books including a full feature documentary on the human/animal relationship and spiritual consciousness, entitled The Interconnectedness of all Life: What is the Purpose of Life?

He has already spread the vegan message to hundreds of thousands of people. Michael Lanfield is an animal rights activist, motivational speaker and author of The Journey to Compassionate Living who is from Toronto, Canada. He had a spiritual awakening and went vegan in 2009. “I no longer wanted to kill any living thing”, Michael said in an interview. “Animals are feeling and living beings that have every right to be on this planet just like us.” In 2011 he joined Toronto Pig Save bearing witness of pigs in transport trucks and slaughterhouses. “I have a dream, that one day all the killing will stop; the killing of man, the killing of Mother Earth and most importantly the killing of animals.”

Michael first heard of the fruit lifestyle through Durianrider’s YouTube videos. From there when he read The 80/10/10 Diet and Grain Damage by Dr. Douglas Graham he incorporated more raw fresh fruits and vegetables into his diet. It was not until he heard interviews by Dr. Douglas Graham and Michael Arnstein that made him realize the importance of fruits. “In order to get back to Eden like paradise we need to incorporate more fresh fruits and vegetables into our diets. These are the healthiest foods on the planet. My diet now consists of more than 95 of the total calories coming from raw fresh fruits and the rest from vegetables, and the occasional nuts and seeds.”
