Below are references to the information that we have used along our journey. I have only included those that I have found most useful and continue to refer to for our benefit. The list is not exclusive to a plant-based diet, but it is a common theme, although they do not have to be referred to in that context. It is not a definitive list, nor is it intended to be universal. I will continue to add more and would be very happy for any contributions.
