I am remembering with gratitude all the things I have learned from your personal consultations and your nutritional classes. I went for years being unsure what to eat and how to cook for myself. With your help this problem has been resolved.
Alex H. Vancouver BC

Many thanks to you! I feel like I opened a treasure chest! You set my mind to rest and gave me much to think about. I just finished printing off everything and am starting to organize it. This will make good airport reading, and of course, I will be digesting all this stuff while at Mom and Dad's house. You do good work!

Thank you for the accommodations in arranging the meeting, the ease of changing your usual method for appointments, for your attention in preparing and presence during the appointment. After, I told my partner, there is something different about interacting with Vesanto, she is really present. It is not like talking to a TV broadcaster reciting lines or an actor, she is really there and there is something different about the quality of the interaction.

It was so lovely meeting you. I was so excited to have the chance to chat with you since your book “Becoming Vegan: Comprehensive Edition” helped me with my transformation to a vegan lifestyle. I had been on blood pressure medication for 15 years and now since I am vegan, I am off of all my medications! It’s been great. I purchased your cookbook at the conference as well and it’s been life changing. Warmest Regards,
