1. Being vegan means always being healthy.

I feel better too. I sleep better, snap back from exercise better, and I swear I’m smarter.

I was talked into trying it by a friend, and I thank her often. It’s awesome!

2. It's good for the animals.

It's good for the planet.

It's good for your health.

It's all good!

I’ve been mostly vegan for 10 years. My lipids are not as good as yours, but close. I haven’t had dairy, eggs, red meat or poultry since going vegan. However I eat 1-2 weekly servings of seafood, mostly wild caught salmon, because pernicious anemia runs in my family and I need those vitamin B12 bumps from natural sources to keep my levels stable.

Chol-HDL ratio is 2.6 (0-5)

I have virtually no chance of heart disease.
