RE: Why I am a vegetarian

in #food7 years ago

I am so happy that you took the time to compose this wonderful blog. I myself have recently embraced vegan living. It's been over 2 months now since I last at meat and my body really thanks me for it! I feel so much better and have so much more energy since eating only a plant based diet. Do you eat dairy? You should totally ditch the dairy too.
Im following your blog now. 😉

I do eat dairy. There's a multitude of reasons, and a few excuses. In general, for homesteaders dairy presents a very sustainable form of protein and omega 3s. I had a flock of chickens that lived only off of our vegetable scraps, and we got 6 eggs a day. I'm not apposed to the vegan diet, but to get the nutrition I need at this point it would require a lot of supplementing. Eventually I may get there.
