Hello All.. I'm New!

[Guest guest]

Greetings everyone!

My name is Fi and I live in Washington state. I'm 22 years old and for

several years I have been told I eat a 'somewhat' vegan diet. I eat

dairy products, turkey, chicken and fish.

 

I've come to a point in my life, where I am wanting better health and

future. So I am seeking out to become a full vegetarian. I don't want

to eat turkey or chicken, but should I hold off on the fish to? I

don't eat much of it and when I do it's only tuna. But if I have to

give it up to live vegan than I will do it no problem. I have a few

questions...

 

Are there different levels of the vegan lifestyle? What are they?

Is eating vegan the best for the body?

Do you think mineral supplements are good or bad? If bad, why? If

good, which one's are best to be taken every day along side a

multi-vitamin?

 

I hope to meet and greet many new friends here! Gather lots of tips

and 'know hows' and recipes!

 

Thanks to everyone who is standing by my new lifestyle decision!

Hi Fi;

 

There are a number of excellent resources for information on vegan lifestyle,

that can answer all of your questions, and more!

 

For the health issues, I would suggest that you review the material on this

website:

This one also addresses the health issues, plus the ethical ones:

Wishing you all the best,

 

Deborah (vegan for over 20 years)
