As many people realized the right thing for the animals, our health and the environment is to go vegan . some people may don't know how to start. But let me tell you, it is easier then you may imagine, and there is nothing crazy about it. Per instance many of the things you already enjoy are vegan; just stick with the things you like that is already vegan, and switch animal products to healthier cruelty-free options.
Here are a few examples of what I usually eat during the day with about 100 g of protein daily if not even more. I usually do not have a lot of time to cook or to make complicate things so I stick with the easy, healthy fas, tasty and simple. After reading the "China Study", which is a complete book on plant-based nutrition. I realized how important other nutrients are such as fiber and antioxidants , nutrients in which animals products cant offer to people and may be the cause of so many disease related to chocking our arteries; perhaps it may be the reason why I feel so young, healthy being over 40, vegetarian my whole life and Vegan for many years. I am not a great fan of cooking, but I make sure I make my own meals most of the time, so therefore all my meals must be tasty and very easy to make it.
Here are some of the meals I usually eat ;
Seasoned chickpeas salad with kale avocado spinach, cucumber, and spinach. The secret to making it taste good and at the same time keeping it healthy is to use natural seasoning such as lemon juice; oregano; basil; onions; cilantro; black peppers; salt; parsley and so on.

My personal tip for health and youth reasons would give up soda and over the counter juices; sweeteners; processed sugar and alcohol. However, maybe that is just good for me, and I may be too extreme on that, but by ditching sweeteners, processed sugar, sodas, high in oil processed vegan chips and sticking to a natureal option such as homemade juices and smoothies led me to feel healthier and younger.
If you have any thoughts or tips please let me know. I can only feel grateful that I am able to enjoy food with 0 sacrifices, feeling healthy, without collaborating with the harm of animals, the harm m of my health and the environmental.
