So you are totally convinced. You’ve seen people on the internet who have lost major weight. You’ve seen all the documentaries of people reversing and curing illnesses. You finally fully understand the power switching to a plant-based diet and want to go vegan, but you have no idea what it’s going to cost you or where your next date night will take place. You are not alone, there are plenty of people around the world who would love to go vegan, but have no idea what to eat or how to begin. Although there is so much information about vegan food and nutrition in general that you will eventually learn, start with my need to know advice for newbie vegans below.
If you asked ten people what healthy meant you would probably get ten different answers. Healthy can mean a lot of different things to a lot of different people. Some would say being able to run a six minute mile is considered healthy, some would say just being able to eat, breath, and sleep is healthy. Some may even say as long as you are walking without holes in your chest then you are looked at as a healthy human. We can all agree on one thing that there are many definitions of the word. On a daily basis we see everything from fitness ads to pharmaceutical drugs that are supposed to get us “healthy”, but unfortunately none of these in the true sense is the correct definition of the word. Although I did not know it at the time, I like thousands of other people was in the dark. I was truly ignorant to what true health really was. All I knew was that I needed to change. I was obviously unhealthy and lacking any of the healthy attributes mentioned above. I looked into all avenues, but the word that turned my life upside down was the word “vegan”.
