Would you ever try veganism?

@ArtieKat All diets can be harmful or benefitial. You just need to know how to combine your food and be aware what you're eating. It's a lot of work, and at some places can be expensive or you'd need to spend a lot of time cooking. That's the reason I'm not one just yet. Plus some environmental issues. And ofc, if you have health issues, probably should stick to a diet that's good for you. But vegan diets, just like vegetarian and omnivore diets can be healthy if balanced well.

@ArtieKat Not true at all--to be vegan you need to study it and be sure to get Omega-3 and vitamin B, which I do. My doctors have been amazed at my good health and healthy blood tests. Over 20 years vegan now.

@greensnacks That's the crux. The human body wasn't designed to have to add supplements of any kind to ensure we get the nutrients needed.

@Docdon23
Where do you get those from in your diet?

@ArtieKat walnuts, nuts, flaxseed, and other sources. I also keep track of my protein and get more than I sued to when I ate meat. You need to study it--or ask someone who has been vegan a long time. I would be glad to help!! I love it and am very healthy. No clogged arteries like meat eaters.

@Docdon23 Thanks for your reply.

@ArtieKat it's not via supplements. You can get everything omnivore diet gives you via vegan produce.

@greensnacks OK. But many people do take supplements nevertheless, and do eat highly processed factory foods.
