Moving from a Standard American Diet to a Vegan Lifestyle

Did you know surveys today show that 1/3 of people's diets comes from fast food & junk food!!! That's A LOT! Although fast food and junk food may taste good and is affordable and faster to obtain, it will cost you ALOT in the long run.

You can only fool yourself and your body for so long. Do you realize that if you exist on primarily fast foods you are compromising your health and aging at an accelerated speed. If you want to reap a healthy life, you need to re-evaluate your diet habits and your lifestyle. You know, you reap what you sow - so if you're eating JUNK your body will be JUNK, if you eat HEALTHY then your body will be HEALTHY! Not a real difficult concept to grasp! (and I won't even begin to mention the horrors of what the industry does to the animals that you're ingesting).

Now, vegan lifestyles and for that matter even 100% vegetarian lifestyles may not be for you but you can make simple transitions making it a comfortable and enjoyable experience! Some will dive right into being vegan or vegetarian overnight, others will do it in a slow gradual manner, do what's best for you!

A big misconception is that you "have" to go to a health food store to get vegan/vegetarian items…that's NOT the case, fruit, vegetables, juices, nuts, beans (fresh ones) can all be purchased at your local grocery!

Here's a few steps to help you transition smoothly:
