EBS Mensa goes Vegan

Let's start with an explanation of veganism and an introduction.

A vegan diet is absolutely free from animal products, this means:
- no meat
- no cheese
- no eggs
- no dairy products
There are several reasons why people choose to live vegan; most do it for protection of animals and environment but there is an increasing number of vegans who do it for their own health.

Short introduction to myself:
I started to eat a vegan diet just as an experiment last April. Why? Because I was really curious how people can live without meat, cheese and all the other stuff I used to like. To be honest I even used to laugh at vegetarians because giving up something that seemed so “normal” was just a crazy and stupid idea for me. But I wanted to give it a try.

So I started doing some research about vegan nutrition and found many inspirational sites, blogs and people who helped me to implement a vegan diet into my life. I wanted to do this as a “one-month-experiment” and then decide whether it was something for me or not. I invested a lot of time in learning and understanding the vegan diet. And surprise: vegan food isn’t just about eating salads! You won’t miss anything while living vegan, you can still eat muffins, pasta, pizza, soups and even burgers - but the vegan way. The variety of vegan recipes is incredibly huge.
After a week eating vegan food I started realizing some changes: I had more energy, my skin became clearer and I just felt great! So I kept going, even though my friends just couldn’t understand it.

The experiment was successful. Eating vegan is possible and even fun! I will post for you some interesting sites and blogs all about vegan lifestyle and delicious recipe ideas. So stay tuned.
