I have reached a point in life where eating plant based, basically just adopting a lifestyle of veganism (the term plant based sounds more cutting edge somehow haha), has become the pinnacle of health for myself.
I have been a vegetarian for over 10 years and vegan on and off throughout that time. I transitioned to a vegetarian diet for health reasons not ethical, after reading The China Study.
My decision for going vegan is both ethical and for supreme health. I have been a vegan for some years in the past but I am at a point where animal products are not conducive in any way, shape, or form to my current lifestyle.
Also vegans (whom eat healthy, there is such a thing as 'junk food vegans' lol) are the most vibrant and radiant of creatures despite what you may or may not believe.
I realize there probably are not many vegans on this forum, I mean there aren't many of us in any one given location that isn't somehow directly related to being vegan hahah, so I would like to simply introduce logical arguments here for eating solely plant-based vs. being an omnivore.
Maybe you will walk away with some new insight if nothing else.
If you are vegetarian or vegan I also look forward to some friendly camaradarie!
A couple intro videos by my friend Ralph Smart,
Actually he has quite a few veggie related videos I'm gonna post them all, also other vegan videos just to spark some ideas for the off chance any readers of this thread are truly curious about veganism.
And of course to reinforce my decision to go fully plant based
And on an off note, yet another actor has recently gone vegan, Liam Hemsworth. Quite fond of him actually, something about the Hemsworths, perhaps a man crush of sorts hehe:
