Convince Skeptics With Easy Vegetarian Recipes
hi everyone, welcome back to theveganatheist. i've been a vegan for 15 years and meat freefor 22 years, and have accumulated a lot of knowledge and experience. if you have ever considered going vegan, thisvideo will give you 5 quick tips to be a happy healthy vegan. take a cyanocobalamin b12 supplement. low b12 can cause anemia and nervous systemdamage. do not rely on b12 fortified foods alone. one 10 micrograms daily or 2000 microgramsweekly.
i personally take a liquid vitamin weekly. there is evidence that omega-3 fatty acidsare helpful in the prevention and treatment of heart disease and important for cognitivefunction. there are three important omega-3 fatty acids:ala (alpha-linolenic acid) epa (eicosapentaenoic acid)dha (docosahexaenoic acid) ala is easy to find in a vegan diet (ie flax),and our bodies can convert ala into epa and dha, however large amounts of ala are necessary. i eat ground flax, and a small amount of dhaflax oil every day just to be sure i'm not deficient.
it may be tempting to share your new foundpassion for spreading veganism to everyone in your life, but i would caution your approach. if you value the relationships you have, bethey personal or business, perhaps you ought to set some boundaries. most people are not receptive to criticism,or questioning of one's ethical framework, so what i would suggest is don't initiateconversations about veganism, but rather respond to questions or concerns when they come up. be a friendly and knowledgeable vegan whois not looking to convince someone to go vegan through guilt or shock.
lead by example, not by judgment. going vegan is often done individually, andso you may find yourself feeling removed from society and the people you normally interactwith. there is tremendous value in learning fromthe experiences of others, and having a community to talk to and grow. i would highly recommend joining an onlineforum such as the philosophical vegan, and/or finding a local meet up group. if your neighbourhood doesn't have one, startone. it's one thing to read and watch videos ofanimals saved from the harms of animal agriculture,
but its another thing altogether when youget to meet them in person at a local farm sanctuary. throughout the world you will find animalsanctuaries where compassionate people devote their lives to caring for injured and traumatizedcreatures and who give them a renewed peaceful life. the harm, and the compassion become much morereal when you witness the victims. if you ever have the chance to visit, or evenvolunteer, don't pass it up. it will change you forever. have your own vegan tips to being a happyand healthy vegan?
