First of all, nobody can’t and won’t force you into anything you don’t want to. Once you are a grown up, you are able to make your own choices. But with this ability there also comes responsibility along the way. It sure as hell is your own personal choice to choose which foods to […]
Often times people say veganism is too extreme; they had to change their whole diet. And if you grew up eating dairy, eggs and even meat, a vegan diet surely is a switch in your habits. But an extreme is a matter of opinion. Probably everyone who spent some time digging deeper and […]
The short answer is no! The long answer is a little bit more complex: The only time a cow is giving milk is during and a little after pregnancy – to be able to feed her child. And that is where the cruelty starts. Since the humans want her milk, mom and […]
If you really think about it, it’s kind of funny to ask oneself if “only” eating vegetables, legumes, fruits, grains – and all those other things that grow on our planet, which fall in the category of “healthy foods” and the ones we should eat most of – is healthy. But I myself was worried […]

If you got raised to eat dairy, eggs and meat, becoming a vegan for sure is a change. The shelves at grocery stores are packed with animal products, and the first few days it all might seem overwhelming and too much – or too little to choose from. However just like everything scary new, those […]
Some of you might wonder how and in which way it benefits others if you stop eating animal products. It probably isn’t the first reason vegans list when they explain their chosen diet but definitely a strong aspect to think about! We currently are growing enough food to feed 10 billion people and still […]
The common believe that the main reason for the climate change and the huge carbon footprint is the waste gas of cars and other transportation has been stated wrong. According to United Nations Scientists, the meat industry is the leading cause of climate change, water depletion, soil erosion and most other environmental problems. Greenhouse […]
The health issue is a huge reason for people to ditch all animal products. Our whole lives we get told that animal products are necessary and healthy for our body.
