Has anyone's cold/flu symtoms gotten better now that you are vegan?

 

I heard that we vegans produce less mucus and some people have such great immune system from all the fruits and veggies that they didn't even know that they had a cold/flu because they recover in one or two days.

 

I'm curious what is your experience? Do you think that you handle getting sick better now than your pre-vegan days? Or is it the same?

Hey Anouk

 

I will answer you, my weekend was pleasant and sane, not much going on at this end of the world.

 

I checked my meager little garden and managed to harvest a handful of tobasco peppers and a few tomato stragglers..

 

Other then that it has been really really calm around here.

Okay, I'll answer! I did not get sick as often once I became vegan. I do, however, have some environmental allergies that have not been affected by my diet.

 

As for vitamin D, cow's milk does not have it naturally. It is ADDED by the milk producers. Vitamin D actually is available by sunlight. So give the milk back to the baby cows and go outside for some nice sunshine!

Likewise what Frag said. I basically don't get sick one way or another. Blake On Mon, Sep 21, 2009 at 6:21 PM, fraggle <EBbrewpunx wrote:

I havent seen any difference in my waist line, I think it needs the removal of the bread for any of it to really shrink. But I dont have to reach for the tums as much as I used to with the former meat eating days.

Ah you're not that old.. 40's is the new 20's it's true. hee hee.

Me.. I noticed that my little boy who is vegan recovered very quickly and the rest of his schoolmates where out for longer. Also, last year I got sick during the winter but found that it only lasted two days.

 

People can be junk food vegans I guess.. after all coke and potato chips are vegan..

but I have made a real effort these last few years to eat healthier including eating vegetables I never even heard of..

 

It's exciting to be vegan because one side effect is that I have discovered recipes and foods that are wildly creative and unique and delicious.

Hi Anouk,

Thanks for the kind words, but the big 50 is looming.

Just taken on an allotment now so hopefully in a year or so will be growing a lot of my own veg, and maybe some soft fruit.

Even if I dont grow much the exercise will do me good! Its gonna be a big learning curve.

a lot of ppl say they feel much better and healthier after going vegan

but

meh..for me...6 of one, half dozen of the other

after 20 yrs veggie, 16 of which have been vegan, everything tends to blur

arthritis sux

allergies suck

can't say i've been sick all that often, but i think the allergies make up for it

the joys of getting older

stoopid body warranty ran out years ago

cheers
