• WHAT I EAT in a REST D...
"yesterday i was clever, so i wanted to change the world. today i am wise, so i am changing myself." -Rumi
i hope you feel my love. my appreciation for you. how much i honor you. i hope you feel it all.
Thank you for all you do for us♡
What a great quote!! So much appreciation for all you do to create these inspiring videos :)
applesandamandas thank you, I agree with everything you talked about 💜
Myself trying to change myself... Not so wise, Rumi. :-)
We love an educated queen.
one of the most underrated youtubers ❤️ such a good video!!!!!
thanks so much love!!!
people also need to remember to not go to extreme with veganism like low carb high carb high fat or whatever its all about balence
And that's great-if you had trouble digesting gluten, soy, nuts, lentils and other components often found in mock meats it would not be that easy.
I love that you addressed all the ex-vegans :) Can you make a “why I’m still vegan video”??
Macrina yes!!! Great idea!
Thanks for watching :) I probably wont, because it doesn't need much of an explanation and it honestly would end up being some kind of ego thing... and i don't need to explain or prove anything because to me being vegan is the truth. and i don't feel the need to justify my truth unless it wasn't clear. there's a bunch of "why i'm still vegan" videos for people who want to find more reasons though and i'm sure they're still super helpful!!
Thats okay!! I didn’t ask because I want reasons as to why I should go vegan (I’ve been vegan for 3yrs and I don’t plan on going back lol) its just a thing a lot of vegan youtubers are doing to combat the “why im not longer vegan” videos. But if it doesn’t seem right to you then you don’t have to! that’s completely okay, I understand :)
i love you so much, i honestly felt a little betrayed and lost after a few of those vegans that made me transform into veganism couple years ago suddenly told that hey lmao i ain't vegan anymore. i mean its their choice but it truly is saddening that they decided not to use their potential influence for good anymore. thank you amanda, for always being real
your meals are so nutritionally dense & I got so many amazing ideas!! also loved hearing your perspective on vegans going back to eating meat and I totally agree with you that you should look for the root cause. But everyone has to live their own lives & I definitely still show respect and love for those that chose to leave this lifestyle💛
yeah.. as sad as it is, each person writes their own story... lives their own lives! thanks for watching and for drawing some ideas to add more health!
I love how you spoke with so much respect about people not following a vegan diet! I would be really interested in a video where you talk about some of the root cases for the things you mentioned!
Love your videos!
I genuinely think a lot of these former vegans haven't focused on a root cause like you said, OR followed an imbalanced vegan diet for far too long. What I have a problem with is when these former vegans claim to believe in the ethics of veganism, but as soon as they ditch the label, they become full-blown fast food mukbangers or they start buying non-food products with animal derivatives and become sponsored by these companies that use animal cruelty. I understand if they make a living off of social media, but they can easily find a niche that isn't health or diet related.
As for the root causes, I find that some people will focus a bit too much of what's going on inside the body rather than the outside. If they're not happy, it may not necessary be due to a "lack of this and that" in their diets. A lot of these vegan CZcamsrs weren't in very good living situations with unstable jobs or toxic relationships. It's okay to take some time off social media to find what works best, even if that means taking time off a plant-based diet, but you REALLY need to be trying and not half-assing anything. After all, veganism is working so well for many people. And it's because they understand that veganism isn't their whole world, especially with food, and they know how to balance out the rest of their life to be happy.
I had eating disorders for 3 years and I went vegan but it was still sick and so my eating disorders continue for 1 year. So I decided to stop being vegan until my mental and physical health will be better (but I was still vegetarian ) and I actually I think this is the best choice that I have done for my health. :)
@Cindy Wallis yes of course but my main problem was that being vegan was an "excuse" for me to not eat. I was restricting myself and I was constantly stressed when I had to eat outside. So now I am like 80% vegan : at home I eat what I want and I am now able to adapt myself at any situation
(sorry for my English I am French )
I had a same issue for over 12 years. One of my root cause is overthinking about eating. I had to stop it. So I opened all source of edible thing for the head stop thinking. Perfectionism was killing me. Now I feel what is good or bad by the experience not by the thinking and determination. Eating must be natural. It shouldn't be a willpower game. It's waste of life.
Aurelien B I only would eat less than 1/4 a cup of beans at a time. I am well aware that these foods are not solving my problems- it’s what they are replacing which is the excess fiber I am getting in my diet that causes my stomach distress, bloat & an inability to stand up as a result. Hope you can understand where I’m coming from, but if not that’s ok. I have to put my health first.
Aurelien B thanks for your input but I actually have been a vegetarian for 10 years now and I have eaten healthy consistently for 5 years. I actually study nutrition in college right now and I’m about to complete my degree. Disorders such as IBS, ulcerative colitis and others cannot be simplified down to one treatment plan as everyone’s body is different. Living with IBS is a huge difficulty for me and in order to find the diet that works best for me I have to try different things.
Aurelien B i don’t eat dairy because I am lactose intolerant but there would be no way for you to know that because we are communicating THROUGH A SCREEN. That’s the problem with the this platform- people think they know more about your body than you do. As far as symbiotic relationships, our bodies all have different microbiomes and that’s what makes us all unique. So my population of gut bacteria (which is at an overgrown state right now) will react differently than your gut bacteria. Certain foods like dairy absolutely aggravate IBS and GI disorders and that’s why I don’t consume them. For me, eating foods that do
not ferment in my gut and cause my bad gut bacteria to grow even more is extremely important. It takes me days and sometimes weeks to even pass food I ate a week ago, so continuing to contribute to my discomfort is not ideal.
I agree and thank you for sharing!
Gastroparesis might also be caused by a lack of production of gastric acid due to a damaged mucosa within the stomach which may disrupt the correct functioning of the muscle.
Dr Esselstyn showed that the health of the endothelium can be corrected by eating a lot of cooked greens (5 times a day, the size of the fist) and a low fat plant-based diet.
The mechanisms of gastric mucosal injury: focus on microvascular endothelium as a key target.

you are so inspirational!! Love your videos so much Amanda! As a 16 year old vegan you inspire me all the time! and I agree with what you said about the ex vegans xx
would you ever do a video about some of the common problems on a vegan diet that people have been mentioning recently? like bloating or acne etc
Amanda, you're so thoughtful and empathetic
They add so little of the mushroom extracts Into the teas and cacaos that I doubt it has any effect on people and their health at all
Unnatural Vegan made a video about that saying basically the same thing.
I once bought a supplement and after I realized that the concentration of each pill was so small that I would've had to take 3-4 pills each day to achieve the dose at which studies have shown it actually has an effect. 😂 So yeah, since then I make sure the concentration of whatever I'm having is the recommended dose or at least half (so I can take just 2 instead of a quarter of the bottle).
Why don't you try it out and then give your opinion. Also, everyone's body if different, it could help someone focus but not help you. Don't jump to conclusions.
Erika Green there’s been studies done on this....
Agreed! Placebo effect folks 😉
This is the reason why I tell my friends and people that I met that I prefer that they reduce the animal products. And then if they want to and if they feel great, they actually switch. That's the way we should teach people. 😊 It works!! 👌🏻💪🏻
Excellent video Amanda, I enjoyed listening to your thoughts :)
thanks for watching!!
What is your input on the whole celery juice craze? Ive been trying it out but I am also skeptical because there is no actual science behind any of the claims.
I totally agree about taking Sundays for a rest day. I do the same thing! Also, I'm vegan too and everyone around me is sick, and I'm not! I love it!
This is so interesting! I really like Kimberly Snyder because she addresses a lot of the issues around vegan eating and digestion and extracting good nutrition from a plant based diet and I feel like she has a lot of the answers to some of the things you addressed here as a nutritionist. I couldnt believe how many people slammed those IG vegans who went back to eating meat seems harsh. Somes times environmentalists cant avoid using plastic or petroleum either. I feel like the same negative things can be said about ANY kind of diet not being good for you because of individual experiences. But totally wrong to judge a persons health. I dont want to take painkillers a lot of the time, and yet pain gets real sometimes.
“.. at least eat plant foods as well”. Do you still believe this ? I have MECFS which is a debilitating condition, and plant foods made me a lot worse putting me in a mobility scooter. I now eat only animal foods after long term veganism and this is the best I’ve felt in almost a decade. This might just be an anecdote to you but I’ve been doing this since February now and my life has completely changed.
I love your positive attitude towards people who can't be vegans. So different and so refreshing.
Such a beautiful response. You’re my favorite person seriously. You are growing and actively learning to be unconditional. Thank you for sharing your heart as always. 💖
I got a one serving sample of Four Sigmatic mushroom cacao (like hot chocolate) at Sprouts, and it was so good! Tasted like cinnamon. It's way too expensive to buy the full product, but I'll definitely buy the sample at Sprouts on occasion :) I would have never tried this product if you hadn't advertised for them. So thanks Amanda! Sorry people give you crap for doing sponsored videos. It dumbfounds me how people who get to consume your content FO' FREE complain about you getting a paycheck. Lamos.
I have watched your videos before, but it’s the first time I noticed the ‘Ahinsa’ tattoo and the ‘Om’ behind you. It’s so beautiful to see how we all are connected in some way or the other and I respect you so much for embracing our culture. Much love from India.❤️❤️
Southern Malwa Plateau I have an Ahimsa tattoo on my wrist and I didn’t even realize that she had the exact same 😂

So good to know that,it’s a beautiful Sanskrit word with depth in its meaning. Well wishes to you. :)

What does it mean? :)

It’s a Hindu doctrine which believes in absolute non violence. It promotes sacredness of every living and non living creature and avoidance of any form of harm. It encourages to not hurt anyone through your actions ,words or feelings. 😊
I’m so happy I found this channel. So much motivation to get back to being a healthy vegan and give up this processed junk I’ve been on lately ♥️ sending love and light! Thank you for the great content.
as a dietician, what are your thoughts on canada’s new food guide?
as a casual viewer, i think it's impressive, amazing & positive! :)
i think it's awesome!!
I think it's awesome. I'm Canadian and I think the diversity of people and seeing the good results in eastern health has made a big difference. It's good the way they have changed it, made it more relatable as well for people. Long term will help a lot of people if they choose to follow!
Thank u for being so compassionate towards everyone..💕💕 God bless u..🙏🏻🙏🏻
My story is opposite to Bonny Rebecca, I had really bad digestive issues from eating meat eggs and dairy, so I stopped eating meat and dairy 18 years ago, I would cheat and have a small dairy chocolate, but then get I'll after, I stopped eating fish, because it just didn't feel right , but I still never felt well, I was tired and always had sore throats, and depression, so 3 years ago I made the step to go vegan, I was one of those people that thought it would be really hard , so I set a date March 1st, 2016 and I've been totally vegan, ever since, I even make my own body products, and cleaning products, and I feel well, I do yoga and walking. I have energy, so I know I will be staying vegan for the rest of my life.
I've been watching you since you lived in Boston and you've always inspired me to eat more plant based. All of this to say, I really REALLY love how you view the whole "ex vegan" situation. Thank you for being such a loving and understanding person!
loved this
soooo true amanda i had gut issues for 7 years after my ed and not once did i think about eating animal products it toke me agaes to work it out but now im soo much better and its crap people dont put enough effort in
She reminds me of Nicole Scherzinger
Yesss
Really?!? I don't see it at all
Thanks for this video! Those pancakes looked so yummy! It seems like you have such a healthy mind and attitude towards life in general. I love the reminder for mindful eating- with instagram and CZcams I forget to be mindful many days! Xx
Do you think starting vegan diets like high carb low fat or raw til 4 could cause issues in digestion when people begin to incorporate fat or more cooked food etc? I’m just wondering if the extremity of some early vegan content creators diets are the things that are causing these issues.
How did you make the mushroom hot cacao (how much water, etc.)? I currently have packets of it, but when I tried to make it, there wasn’t much flavor. I think that I may have added too much water?
Besides mushrooms and adaptogens, what are your thoughts on supplements like algae-based DHA/EPA, vitamin D in particular during winter and of course (sub-lingual) B12? -Also might consistently taking them lead to more successful long-term vegans?
Girllll I feel you! It's so hard for me, as a workaholic, to just stop. I don't know how I handle it. In the past I used to sleep 5h to 6h. And for the past 6 months I only sleep 4h and I just don't know how I can handle it. The only consequence was for two times, I craved sugar like crazy. And that's probably because I was looking for energy. So because of that, this last month I forced myself to sleep like 6h to 7h. And it felt kinda good. #selflove #selfcare trying to reach that ☺️☺️ you are not alone Amanda 😉💕
When is your birthday? I’m curious as to what the rest of your chart looks like outside of your Aquarius sun. Love your videos 🖤
Aquarius/Scorpio/aquarius
An angel!
You’re the absolute best Amanda!! 💕
great video!! love your channel. so real and raw. the only thing which people don't get there is a difference between being vegan and being plant based. Vegan is for the animals. so when people go back to eating them. they were never vegan they were just plant based. ;)
Yup!! I agree
I love you and this! Thank you so much!
You got me subscribed with your common sense, then in love at type B Aquarius lol
I hope you stick around!
My favorite youtuber
I wonder if you’ve seen or heard of the CZcamsr gojiman, it has been sad to loose some vegan influencers to health issues, but switching back to meat doesn’t fix the underlying issue
Hey Amanda not sure if you have an Aldi near you but they have a version of the chocolate covered blueberry acai balls that are vegan now! They didn't used to be but now I love to get them as a treat 😊
How do you like being a dietician?? Would you recommend it?
That “oh ma gosh” at the end.
I honestly wonder what it is about the vegan diet that's now making so many people stop it, like i wonder if it's too much fiber? I know for a lot of vegans its skin issues, so i wonder what it is about the diet thats causing the skin issues. i was vegan for 2 years and it only made my acne so much worse so i couldn't continue, but i still choose to buy as ethically as i can and as little as i can, but yeah I'm just so curious to know what it is, or maybe its different for everyone
It’s most likely different for everyone. A lot of them already had issues before going vegan and expected veganism to fix it, without finding out why. Veganism was never the problem to begin with.
awesome video! so glad i found your channel! i really enjoyed listening to your sides of the story.
Question, do you add anything else to the mushroom coffee or do you just drink it plain?:)
I strayed... was gone for about three months (I tired of product enforcements and the "poor little privledged girl" syndrome... just being truthful)
In that time I gained 10 lbs from sweets and eating out. Not healthy! I wasn't very enticed by my usual veggie plates and smoothies. I would look listlessly at my cupboards, bored by its contents then have a hunk of buttered (I'm not 100% vegan) French bread for dinner. FOR DINNER! Grr... sabotaging my own health and wellness.
This morning I chose to dig back into some Amanda while doing my food prep and I have a lovely plate waiting for me with romaine, celery-almond butter-sliced prune, cherry tomatoes, carrot sticks, avocado with hemp, raw cashews, grapes and a GORGEOUS kale and cabbage slaw.
The difference is listening to people (love my Miles too! #CrazyHealthyCool) glow about their love for healthy food. The passion is inspiring and is encouraging me back to the plant side from which I strayed.
If you are a bad vegan like me ("bad" to me is 95% vegan, 5% "that tastes great") find folks who inspire your health goals with their passion.
Passion inspires passion.
End rant 😉
wassap Aquarius, your loving neighborhood Gemini here to appreciate your individuality and creativity. You're amazing
I eat plant-based, predominantly whole foods, and the same thing - everyone else is sick with cold, but I stay healthy. It is just very easy to stay healthy on a plant-based diet :-)). Btw. Such a good video about ex-vegans!! Finally a reasonable opinion, instead on bullying ex-vegans for being murderers. P.S. I love how you snack so much. I snack like 5x a day and always feel like a weirdo about it... :-D
How to move forward from here is to just be you, enjoy being you, and allow everyone else to be themselves too. Stop trying to change the whole world your way of thinking I guess. (not meant as a criticism but if everyone lightened up a little! the world would be a more loving and forgiving place which would have a positive knock-on effect. x
Yes I love your attitude about this 🥰🥰
damn, this really inspired me, ive been vegan for 5 years I wish I could do more in the community but its just so black and white. To the point where I feel like I use to be so vocal about it and now its more like I try not to get identified by it because that's just who I am (as of right now) and try not to be so conditioned around it but at the same time deep down im passionate about it. a lot of my thoughts in a day are around the cycle of vegan and just curiousity of whats going to happen and what studies are going to show up in the future. I know it will take a lot for humanity to just eat more damn vegetables!! But the point of me pausing the video to comment was that I thought about how long this video in particular is going to be on the internet unless someone hacks the main source of where the internet comes from and swipes everything out, but this right here and now, this video is going to be here from 40 years from now. It makes me want to use my social media even more and start spreading even more knowledge.
Exactly Amanda it's okay to take a day of from your CRAFT and just relax lol😌👌
What did you drizzle on top of your smoothie ?
First of all, fantastic video. Sadly I agree with you that it isn't realistic for us to think a plant based world will happen in less than 100 years. What is truly tragic about this is that from an environmental standpoint we really don't have that much time. So I guess we'll see what happens, all we can do is our individual bests
You’re the best ❤️
New subscriber here! I’m so excited to see what you bring to CZcams :)
Aldi sells a vegan version of the chocolate acai balls!! They have pomegranate flavor and blueberry flavor and they are SO good they r a knockoff of the brookeside ones :)
Okay I bought chai tea and a coffee mushroom!! 🍄
The chai tea wasn’t great I like my chai plain and this was really sweet BUT the coffee was SO GOOD!!! It taste like coffee ! Mmmm!!
Ooh, I'm an Aquarian as well. Go Water Bearers
Hey Amanda!
Great vlog!
Could you cover the topic of the leaky gut syndrome, because several vegans seem to suffer from it?
Rose nectar omggggg so looking into this!
Hi Amanda, Do you go to eat with friends who are not vegan? Like would u be able to sit with a friend chowing on a porter house while u eat healthy?😁
absolutely. in a heart beat. i refuse to let myself judge people based on what they eat. as long as they respect my food choices and aren't rude about it, i won't be either! there's a way to be diplomatic about things
You are amazing, I love your videos
Where in the valley are you from ?
Ah, Amanda put your spirulina in an amber jar! Sunlight exposure strips it of its nutrients.
Ah I am an Aquarius toooo 💙
I think the vegans (social media) have to be responsible because many seem like they did not take care of them-self. such as taking vitamins and eat whole based plant-based.
I loovve your tatoo so beautiful! Thanks Amanda for the great video"
how do you know that meat is unhealthy? if your primary motivation for the diet is optimal health, why rule out meat? Most studies on it are done with factory farmed or overly cooked meat, or processed. It's obviously been the diet of our ancestors, so what is healthy about going against your nature? Why do you scrutinize meat so much but not medicine or plants? I also want the best health for myself, but if meat is giving people good results, then there must be good to it. This vegan drive is purely ideological, you're ruling out animal murder and not considering animal products at all in the name of better nutrition but really it's because you don't believe in killing anything. I'm not being mean or hateful, just honest
People should be careful with sentences like "just eat mock meats. PROBLEM SOLVED" You are not in someone's body and cannot know what works for them.
you handled this whole ex-vegan thing very well, kudos!
however, just as a counterargument to the whole "my health is requiring me to eat meat/dairy/eggs etc." I truly believe that it not true. your health may require you to eat more of a specific nutrient, and it may be a hell of a lot easier to get said nutrient via animal products, but EVERYTHING is possible to get a plant based version of.
also on a side note, I've been vegan for going on 7 years now, and I've suffered with GI issues my whole life, veganism never solved it. A couple years ago I was diagnosed with severe gastroparesis, which is essentially paralysis of the stomach. So for me, all foods, whether they are the healthiest combination of veggies and super foods, to animal products, make me very sick. In fact, vegetable and fruits are some of the hardest things (along with meat) to digest bc of the fiber. I have been unable to eat fruits or veggies for almost a year. I am 100% feeding tube dependent, meaning I get all my caloric and nutritional needs through formula. Now, most formula is dairy derived, but I did my research and found amagnificient company that is a sole-source form of oral or tube feeding nutrition that id vegan/gmo free/soy free/gluten free. the point of this - no matter what your health situation, there is always the choice and opportunity to choose compassion.
Anais Paterno human being is not just biometric animal. We have a brain and mind of free will. Yes, there is a perfect vegan diet will cure everything every disease better. But if your brain is messed with eating disorder, system is messed, it is their choice to do what is best for them for right now. There is no perfect eating. Health is not just coming from body. It is coming from a lot of many ways. If you have not lived in their life, in their mind, maybe your advice is just for you.
I swearrrrrr to god if you promote that mushrooms stuff again...
Will you unsubscribe if I do? Lol sorry you just never finished that sentence. Honestly if you hate it I get it so I'm not mad at all! But I like it sooooo yeah
This is her channel and video! Let her post and promote what she wants to
Yet nobody has a problem with all the Starbucks promoting that goes on. It’s just a drink. Nobody is saying it’s going to solve all of your problems or that it replaces a balanced diet.
You get all of her videos and Instgarams FO' FREE. Why not let the companies pay her for it and just be happy you don't have to?
That's why I unsubbed... I wandered back into today for a little vegan inspiration. Not decided yet if I'll stay here or stay gone...
I don’t call myself a vegan anymore because I eat eggs and not consume dairy too much.
U are a vegetarian
I love it
Thanks for the wealth of information...enjoy watching your videos...especially the ones in India.....
The reason a lot of us are upset about people turning their back on veganism is because of the animals. If I had health issues I would do anything and everything in my power to stay vegan for the animals no matter how long it took for my health to normalize. It’s not just a personal choice for health when someone else’s life is on the line.
Gabrielle Mamane if you haven’t yet you should check out Bonny Rebecca’s channel. At least in her case she really did try for years to change up her diet and try to find the root cause to her problems but as a last resort they decided to try adding either fish or eggs to one meal per day and that really helped to improve their health. She and her boyfriend were vegan for a really long time before that too
♡
She talks fast 😁
Would never happen to you Amanda cos your smart and your vegan for all the right reasons, and would research other options then HEY grab me a steak bitch!!! hats off to you love ya videos xx
IM SO EARLYYY
The barnana snack contains milk (mentioned on bag), I guess you didnt notice...
our environment doesn't have hundreds of years
You just eat straight sugar.
Aquarius? I thought you were an Aries?
Four Sigmatic ad...*shows 300$ worth of beverages* hahahaha
My question is, if Veganism is more healthy..they should not need to eat animal products and THEN go vegan...surely if veganism is such a good diet, it should be the answer. Love your video but that point does not really make logical sense ESPECIALLY as a nutritionist. If veganism is the way it should solve all other body issues etc.
Veganism will not solve all body issues. No one way of eating will do that. Science and research has shown Whole food plant based eating to be the best diet for people and shown to improve many chronic illnesses and diseases like diabetes, heart disease and shown lower rates of cancer. But that doesn't mean your health will be perfect and you won't have issues with digestion or skin or never get cancer. For example, even though soy has been shown to be beneficial for the health and longevity, if you have a soy allergy then you will not feel good when you eat soy. That doesn't mean soy is bad or that humans aren't meant to consume soy. It just mean you aren't meant to consume soy due to your body's biological system. That's why Amanda says go to the root of the problem if possible. Hopefully these ex vegans have seen a doctor who is either vegan themselves or at least knowledgeable in plant based diet. Because I have learned that most doctors receive so little training in nutritition and even then, they only learn essentials like macros and micronutrients.
@@yonniehan I understand what you are saying but what I am saying is simple logic. If veganism is the healthiest diet then it should be the solution but its like she is saying you need to build up your body to be able to withstand the vegan diet. If the vegan diet is the best then it SHOULD fix the root problem. Having said that I can appreciate what you are saying about soy etc. I just think it's dangerous to promote a 'one seize fits all' diet. Yes veganism works for a lot of people and I respect the vegan movement for making people more aware of what they are eating! However as a scientist myself it seems different people thrive from different diets. To me it is scary that all the vegans are jumping onto the 'no longer vegans' as it seems that some vegans are more concerned with continuing the movement than they are SEEING if it is actually working for that person. To see Bonny Rebecca experience so much hate when she had years of turmoil is honestly disgusting. I do think Amanda has definitely been one of the nice people who were understanding. I just think its very dangerous to promote veganism for everyone and to say if you can't hack it there must be an underlying issue. The truth is in the western world veganism is relatively new so any science we have right now is limited in terms of showing long term effects because these are things you can only soundly judge after hundreds of years. I dont knock veganism as i believe it works for some people and that it has helped society to be more aware of food and what we are actually eating. However I believe it is VERY dangerous to make these blanket statements when each and every human being is so different. I worry that soon young people will stick to a vegan diet even though its hurting them cause they feel like they have to because of how the community is. I can understand youtubers wanting to comment on these videos and they have a right too. However I think its ignorant to just assume 'they weren't doing it right' or had 'underlying issues' in all cases where it didn't work out. I think there needs to be acknowledgment that that diet may not be for everyone. This obviously depends whether people care more about the movement or the actual people. Sound science is built over years and years and 100s of studies. Less than 50 years ago we still believed childrens genes were simply half their dad and half their mom. Now we know it is extremely more complex than that. Again its not to say veganism is wrong. I am just saying we should be careful about having a 'one size fits all' mentality. And yes I am aware there are people who have lived long lives as a vegan but again that does not mean the whole world should.
i dont get how ex vegans deserve support and love when they're not giving the animals that are murdered and tortured for them any love and support. lmao
because no matter what... everyone deserves love. maybe not praise and adoration for their life choices. but love and support and gentle guidance to a better direction, yes.
applesandamandas k but animals that have to be slaughtered for their ignorance don’t get support and love so that doesn’t make sense
ivana not everything is so black and white though. I know of one youtuber that has been vegan with her boyfriend for the longest time and they had a lot of health problems and they kept trying different types of vegan diets and trying to find the root cause and they were told they had to change their diet and this process was verrry long so basically as a last resort they started adding either fish or eggs to one meal a day and their health drastically started improving. Sometimes you have to care about yourself too not just others
Diana Shostak not sure how adding animal products can improve your health. That doesn’t even make sense 😂 the problem with these people is that they have a superiority complex and think that humans are the best and we deserve to kill and eat whatever we want, it shouldn’t be that way.
sulomau nah I’m good. Maybe you should be more compassionate about other beings besides humans though
unfollow...they don't deserve support! what about animals? where is youre compassion for animals?
Agnieszka Wójcik so they’re supposed to just throw away their life and health? Sometimes you need to take care of yourself too not just others. Plus it’s a lot easier to take care of others when you took care of yourself first
@@dianashostak7293 fuck them I dont care about this fuking fake vegans I care about animals being raped , tortured, brutal kill !
