Vegan!?

Question

Me and my husband are thinking about slowing turning vegan to eat healthy and get in shape. I was a vegan for two years but I had to eat meat once a week because of my iron. Is there any advice anyone can give us or some good vegan recipes?

Answer

Please talk to a nutritionist. So many people don't do vegan right and end up unhealthy. Don't forget your vitamin supplements and shots. We are built to be omnivores and while i respect your viewpoint, just make sure you do it in a healthy way.

Answer

Check out the book called Thug Kitchen. It's an all vegan recipe book and the food in there is fantastic.

Answer

Have you tried paleo? You can do it with or without meat! Healthy if you do it right! Check Pinterest! Paleo takes away processed foods, which we eat too much of nowadays.

Answer

Check out the pH miracle diet

Answer

How have you been finding it so far? I'm vegan for health reasons so I've done tonnes of research! I highly recommend Dr McDougall. He has free resources on his website and recommends a starch based diet for scientific reasons. He has all the info about the lifestyle on his website and there's free recipes if you're ever stuck. To begin with I used the website Chronometer to track my intake and make sure I was eating well enough but I just used it to get a feel for this diet and stopped after a bit because it's easy to get obsessed with numbers and better to learn to listen to your body instead :) I also recommend taking a blood test to check for B12 and MMA I think it's called..  Basically the amount of active B12 in your blood then you can keep that as a record of your baseline then a few years down the line get tested again to see how you're doing and go from there with supplements.
