Anything You Can Eat, I Can Eat Vegan

Veganism is kind of like the mainstream belief in the normality of the “food chain hierarchy”, but in reverse. How did the animal get this nutrient ? What did the animal eat? If the animal got it from another animal, what did that animal eat? There in lies the answer to any nutrition inquiry.

The design of the Earth and our bodies is so intelligent, our nutrients we need just naturally occur in growing plants, and natural elements. Scarcity during changing seasons and weather conditions is the reason our early ancestors hunted animals. In this day and age, a large variety of plants is at our fingertips within a moment’s notice. Killing is unnecessary. Compassion truly begins on your plate: for the animals, the environment, your health, and the future of the human race.

Plant Power: The Gains of Veganism

Compassion begins on your plate!!! There are a million benefits to consider adopting a plant based diet. When I look back to every winter I grew up in Michigan, I spent a lot of time doing outdoor sports. I remember a day of snowboarding all day with my family when I was in high school. We went up north for the week to snowboard specifically, but after the very first day of boarding, I was so sore I didn’t want to snowboard day two.

Never did I ever imagine that 15 years later, not only would I get back on a snowboard this year, but I was in such good shape, I wasn’t even sore the next day. 🤷‍♀️ It’s not that snowboarding has gotten easier, it’s that I’ve gotten stronger. The ease of it made me feel magically free. And this directly correlates with my lifestyle change that came with a vegan diet.

Victories like these can’t be measured by just the weight on a scale: snowboarding with ease at age 30, to finally getting to ride a roller coaster I was kicked off of for being 100 lbs heavier, to even lifting a case of water up the stairs and not relying on a boy to lift my things for the first time in my life. When you focus on becoming a better you every day, it comes back in major ways. It’s amazing that someone that helps the environment and the animals so much also gets help right back. ✨💚🌱
