I am the founder of Veenofs and an all-natural vegan bodybuilder. My mission now is to promote a vegan lifestyle and great vegan products that I truly believe in, which excludes exploitation of - and cruelty to - animals for the purpose of clothing, food, and experimentation.

Realized dairy and eggs contributed to same industry I was trying to boycott. So went fully vegan.

I learned about eating better while worming in the natural foods industry. The more i learned, the more i stopped eating, until i was completely vegan.

One of our beautiful Beagles had an accident and I was coming back from the vets at 1am in the morning after having spent so much money on care and I went to get some chicken out of the freezer for dinner the next day and it was like a light switch went on. Something flicked and changed for me.

The next day I started looking in to veganism more. I had friends that were vegans and I had thought about making the change for health reasons but not for animals reasons.

Someone suggested watching What The Health, so my husband and I watched that at lunchtime of the same day and we were both completely vegan immediately.

I was vegan from the minute I took the chicken out of the freezer and made the connection and him from such a short time later.

We are both now very focused animal rescue and welfare advocates and set up VEGAN Happy Clothing to help raise money for animal sanctuaries and vegan causes.

VEGAN Happy is our form of vegan activism, helping to spread the vegan love and message as much as possible.

I have been a vegan, vegetarian, raw.
So I am just coming back

My vegan story is unusual. The abridged version is: I experienced secondary trauma when I was 23, and something about that opened my mindheart to the connection between meat and violence. I never ate animals again.

Kavita left her high-paying accounting job to follow her passion to open a vegetarian restaurant which serves a unique fusion of street food options which she had been dreaming of since childhood. She pushed hard for this venture to us and finally, we gave in and we are glad that we did. Our family members with their expertise in different fields joined in to support her passion and thus “Veggie Planet” was born on September 2017 in Mississauga. In a nutshell, we are a family-run vegetarian restaurant aiming to serve our unique delicacy of vegetarian food options with warm customer service across the world in the coming days.

I had prostate cancer 15 years ago. I read the China Study and became a vegetarian.

Plant base whole food restarted.

I became vegan by reading and learning more about scientific evidence of benefits being Vegan. I can see and feel a great benefit in my body and energy. I just love it

After a couple of years in the transition phase, in January of 2021, I committed to being 100% plant-based. I'd slip a day and pick myself up recognizing how sick whatever it was I ate made me. The time before 2021, I was mainly plant-based and it gave me a chance to learn more, especially from the luminaries who pioneered the science-backed studies confirming the benefits of living a plant-based lifestyle. I experienced more, learned more, and talked to more who were inspiring and encouraging. Today, I realize the vision I had of veganism was shaded by the veil of misunderstanding. Hearing people talk about being vegan, even in retrospect doesn't due it justice. I heard the words of compassion and feeling love. I had to experience it from a mother's perspective. I could imagine what it felt like to have your child snatched away from you. I could imagine how it might feel to be raped and impregnated, forced to have the child, and have it stolen away from you. I could imagine how a chicken who was born to lay eggs, would do so only to never see them incubate and hatch. I could imagine the pain of living years couped up in a pen and treated horrendously in horrendous conditions. It reminded me of what my ancestors felt like in the hull of a big boat after being stolen from their homes and carried for months in untenable conditions only to be sold to a human who treated them like animals. I have felt the impact of living in a smog riddled environment; concerned about growing plants because of acid rain and polluted ground water. These are still concerns and I am more than ever committed to being the example of living a healthy whole food, plant-based vegan lifestyle. At nearly 70 years old, I plan to see a few more decades healthy and prosperous as I help others to share their message and help others as well.

Been on and off vegan diet for many years, started with vegetarian diet. Want to go total vegan, married to doctor who was brought up mostly vegetarian, had a severe mucus problem and sinus infection, have reneged a bit and eaten some dairy, some meat& fish (a few times a year) only for many decades now. Finally getting message about IGF-1, watch and following many advocates such as Dr. Vincent Longo, Dr. Milton Mills, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, Dr. Michael Greger, Dr. Neil Barnard, Dr. DeanOrnish, Dr. T. Colin Campbell of "The China Study", Dr. Esselstyn and his son Rip, author of "Engine 2 Diet", Dr. John Mc Dougall and many others. Am trying to go total vegan, may be using too much soymilk (according to Dr. Mills), want to get the balance better, overcome my "cultural" way of eating, digging into a "total" switch, which is a monumental task for anyone taking cues from wrong sources, such as the USDA food pyramid model. That's about it.

I slowly transitioned to being WFPB/Vegan after attending many NHA health conferences and reading books on Natural Hygiene. I witnessed remarkable health recovery with my young daughter and myself. After being in this lifestyle for over 25 years, I retired from my corporate career and became the Executive Director of the National Health Association which was founded in 1948 as a non profit to promote a Vegan/WFPB lifestyle. www.healthscience.org

I was just watching YouTube. And Changing The Diet In The African Community. Popped up. And I decided from there I had to get control of my life. I already was having problems with meat. The smell was disgusting me.. And everyone around me think meat. Have to be the main course. And me as someone that lift weights. I was like where will I get my protein. Will I lose muscle mass. I just said I'm going all in. I can't let Society take over me.

It became clear that it was the right thing to do. I want to make the world vegan and I try to everyday.

I grew up thinking that animal products in general were such a part of "normal" everyday life. I never challenged any of it. Mid 2016, a friend started sharing information with me and I began to learn what I felt I already knew. It was difficult, realizing how long I had my back turned to the truth. I decided no more, I confronted the truth and learned to be a more compassionate and empathetic person. I believe in the movement so much, its also what I do for a living! Veganism is the future!

I'm a professional vegan chef 30yrs and motivational coach/speaker. I created the 1st plantbased meals service call Veg-In-Out in 1992 and the 1st plantbased craft services call Healthy Hollywood 2013. I currently promote positivity with love Strong USA.

Everyone could be vegan

I became a vegan about a year ago because I just felt unhealthy. I was overweight, my skin was pail and dull, so on, etc. The transformation was amazing! I lost 20 lbs and I beamed with healthiness.
But then… I went down for 3 weeks to visit friends and family. I decided beforehand that I would eat what they ate and not be a nuisance. Unfortunately, I have struggled to maintain my vegan diet since returning 5 months ago. I feel tired and moody

I went vegan for ethical reasons and plant-based for my health. Having grown up with dogs, I eventually got dogs myself. It was the amazing bond I formed with my pooches as an adult that opened up my empathetic eyes to the complex and beautiful spectrum of emotions that animals possess, and ultimately, provided me with the conduit to vegetarianism in 2014. After watching Earthlings, and resonating so profoundly with the message of activists like Gary Yourofsky, James Aspey and Earthling Ed, I went vegan in 2016. During this period, I had transitioned fairly seamlessly from an omnivorous junk food diet, to highly processed, vegan junk so I was a poor candidate to discuss, let alone showcase the health benefits of whole food, plant-based veganism. Documentaries like What the Health and Forks over Knives along with compelling literature such as The China Study and How Not to Die were pivotal influences in my decision to give up junk food, take control of my health and become a “poster boy” for plant-based eating.
