As for my diet, although I do eat a lot of raw, I do eat some cooked vegan stuff. (i.e. last night we made corn pasta baked with marinara, spinach, mushrooms, tofu, onions and garlic.) However I do eat VERY healthy and will not eat anything processed or ';junk.'; Only organic/ natural stuff because that's what I enjoy.After you go vegan, how long does the detox phase last?
It's different for everyone. I didn't even break out...it cleared up my skin, to be honest. Just wait it out and you'll be fine.After you go vegan, how long does the detox phase last?
probably long. ask a doctor.
Well, I am a vegan, and there are other ways to get the protein that you need. It won't last long. Trust me the first week I was a vegan, well lets just say you didn't want to look at me to long! :) Once it passes over, you will have really beautiful skin!!
don't listen to anime. she's wrong and her friend is NOT a vegetarian. My body got used to it after about a week, but I only became a vegetarian.
It takes any amount of time depending on the person
Your body will try and make you think ';OMFGZ I NEEDZ DA MEATS!'; but hold off and you will get used to it
Congratulations! Sounds like you are very educated about veganism too :)
The breakout phase should be coming to an end - It happened to me too and didn't last long at all. Now my skin is clearer than it ever was and my energy levels are out of this world! Vegan since December 27, 2008 and its so easy. Good luck :)
Detoxify from what? If you ate organic foods before you became a vegan, there are no ';toxins'; to detoxify your body from to begin with.
As for your ';facts';, many Americans suffer from ';urban disease'; because they eat too much period. Not because they eat meat, but because they eat more than they burn or need, Obesity is not caused by eating meat, it is caused by eating too much. You can argue all you want but no food has ever been found to cause a specific disease. Mediterranean and Pacific Islander societies eat a lot of meat yet do not suffer from diseases that Americans are notorious for having, In fact, these societies are often considered the healthiest of so cities.
Actually humans have always consumed meat. The modern post man, homo sapiens, has always been a meat eating animal. If you are referring to the original hominids from where we came, these beings are no longer generally considered as ';men'; although they are the ancestors of modern man. But for the sake of argument, note that the discovery of fire was predated by meat consumption, Therefore man ate raw meat and still eats raw meat. But why would you insist that any person who eats meat ahs to eat it raw as if they were still ';cavemen';? If that is the standard, then why do vegetarians have to cook their food too? They should just forage, not cultivate and plant, for food and munch them off the ground or off trees raw (raw rice, potatoes, beans etc) . No cleaning, no sorting, no paying of third world farm workers to harvest them for you, Go find your own food like the herbivore that you say you are ';designed'; to be. And you vegetarians are so obssessed with cows and pigs and other big animals that need to be hunted with tools, You always forget that other animals such as insects, fish, rabbits snakes, smaller mammals etc can be hunted without tools. The only reason why men started hunting alrger animasl was because the early communities were getting larger and needed bigger animals to be fed proeprly especially during the winter when incidentally, most plant foods aren't available. Try planting cabbage in three feet of snow and you will understand what I mean. Your type of vegetarian/vegan needs to think outside the vegetarian/vegan propaganda box.
My detox lasted a little under a week. Everyone's body reacts to changes differently but I would be surprised if anyone was detox-ing for more than 2-3 weeks. Acne lasting longer than that is most likely unrelated to your new veganism. Any number of things can cause break outs.
@exsft: Where did all that come from? So you don't believe in detox, okay. If you want to see it for yourself, go vegan for a week, and see if you don't get acne or diarrhea or headaches. Then you can talk.
First off, humans have always eaten meat, its part of our vital diet. If you take that away then your body won't fully function. you will become dangerously unbalanced (anerexic). At least put some sort of meat in your diet. My friend is vegitarian and the only meat she eats is chicken beause she knows that you 'need' meat in you daily consumption. We were adapted to eat meat so that is what are body says it needs. It would be unhealthy not to give it a vital protein. In chicken it has needed essential oils for your body.
