[QUOTE="Brotherly Spirit, post: 73853552, member: 395569"] I've been a vegan near a year I think and my experience it's not easy. Especially If you have circumstances being the only vegan living at home, not buying the groceries, and a limited budget. So I understand people's reluctance, it's not only political or religious but very difficult. All my meals are separate from my family, very strict diet of certain foods everyday even processed foods like canned beans and peanut butter for protein and fats. As for nutrients or vitamins like B-12 I eat refined cereal with soy milk (which has added vitamins too). The main reasons I became a vegan is harm to the climate/environment, industrial mass breeding with hormones/antibiotics etc. and the poor conditions/animal abuse, also health eating food that's better for my body and lowers my chances getting diseases like heart disease. I'll admit still ignorant and far from ideal as a vegan, as am I as a Christian; but I think even non-vegans can be moved toward veganism by addressing those major three points. In my mind regardless of your beliefs about climate change for example, it's undeniable people have an affect on the environment like pollution. Further connect it to health, if smoking is harmful to your body and mass consumption of animal products; then why wouldn't you support less pollution and less industrial mass breeding? The earth has an ecosystem like the body has an immune system, some things it can tolerate and heal; but if we continuously harm it and not allow regular healing (wellness), the harm will have greater severity and lasting damage.
