When I first learned about meal prepping, I thought that only professional bodybuilders did it. At the time, I saw meal prepping as a boring way to stay in shape. Sure, you were tracking your calories and macronutrients (less so your micronutrients), but the point was clear. Cook the food, portion it, eat it, and […]
Alongside the common “protein concern” regarding plant-based diets, one thing that comes up quite frequently is vitamin B12. I’ll be honest, before going vegan, I never heard of B12. It’s as if it didn’t exist, only to spring up once I changed my lifestyle. Growing up, I heard about zinc, iron, and vitamin C. B12 […]
Veganuary is a cool concept. I have to admit that it’s nice to have a month dedicated to veganism. It’s a month that highlights awareness, and that invites people to try to eat plant-based for 31 days. For some, this could be a challenge, for others it can be an opportunity. No matter why someone […]
One thing I love about London is how vegan friendly the city is. This type of inclusivity traverses the entirety of Europe – with a plethora of diverse vegan restaurants and alternatives. Having options allows vegans, and non-vegans alike, to try plant-based foods without compromising on taste. Living in a vegan-friendly city / country provides […]
This is a moment that I have been waiting for a while now. When I reached 6 years of veganism, I realised that I’m slowly approaching a decade. Every day that goes by brings me closer to that milestone. It’s a cool milestone, and I hope to reach it. Also, it’s not often that I […]
Almost 7 years ago, I decided to become vegan. In doing so, I declared to stop eating animal products for good. For most of my life, I thought that we had to eat animals based foods to be healthy and strong. This thinking fuelled the way I looked at food, driving me to eat more […]
As I approach my 7th year of being vegan in August, I take this moment to reflect back on a time when I wasn’t. At the time, I would eat anything and everything without a second thought. It didn’t matter what I ate, as long as it was tasty, and somewhat healthy. I think this […]
There are certain questions that people ask me that don’t seem to go away as the years go by. I’ve been vegan for almost 7 years now, and I find it interesting when I hear a question like “do you find being vegan hard” or “are you ever going to eat meat again?”. I’ve mentioned […]
In my last article, I looked at different things to consider when deciding to go vegan. For many, such decision would be unitary – meaning it’s most likely a solo mission. However, just because you do this alone, that doesn’t mean that it should be daunting. In this article, I want to expand on a […]
Then and Now It’s not surprising that over the last few years, veganism has picked up in popularity across world. In fact, there are more vegans now than ever before and the numbers are constantly rising. A big reason for this has to be that vegan foods and products are easily accessible. In the UK […]
