Hey all! I'm going to get right into it!
And right before I do, for those who have a short attention span, get bored, or don't want to read anymore, Just skip over to the end of the blog where it says "Video Section" in blue and choose ONE of the five videos that I've attached, before leaving!
Small disclaimer:
I'm not hear to judge or downcast and I don't condemn how you choose to live! All I want to do is somewhat shed some light and open up awareness that we may be possibly unaware of and hopefully open a different perspective and new knowledge on this issue/industry, that we may haven't known before, or think to realize at all.
So The Question Is, Is A Vegan Diet Actually Our Much Needed And New Future?
It's all starting to make sense now.
I wanted to find the truth. I wanted to find the best possible healthy lifestyle for human health, and so I did. And there it was, standing proudly in sight; that made it's way boldly known: VEGANISM.
So, if you're interested to know my journey on what brought me here today, I want to share with you all my reasoning's, and why! Allow me to expound:
Here Is Exactly What I've Found Out And Discovered About Our Food Industry.
Vegans, the ones that lot's look down upon, are actually ahead of the game.
I have been doing minor research--being that I'm interested in health and nutrition--and all along, our entire life we've literally been lied to, manipulated and decieved by the meat and dairy industries, the USDA and by our food research scientists.
Yes, this is true. Yet, we don't even realize it.
●I have learned that veganism is a different story than what we portray, and goes way... deeper. There are studies showing that everything vegans have been trying to warn us about, tell us about, and inform us about have been proving over and over again to be right.
We are taught that the food pyramid and everything that the USDA suggest for us to eat is "the best and most healthiest way to live," but it's really a false and fraudulent guidance chart. We've been taught wrong curriculum: In schools, propaganda, labels, advertisements, marketing, television...etc.
A lot of these stories and establishments are funded by these industries. The meat and dairy industry pays millions of dollars to get this info into our heads so that we would buy their products..and also feel like we "need" them.
That's business.
Of course, it worked all these years. We are so implanted, grounded and wrapped up in this false corporate belief and proposition. That is why it's so hard for us to accept anything else that's greatly conflicting that.
They don't want people like myself, activists, researchers... etc., enlightening the world of this news and spreading it. But, how can one not?? When it's a really big issue causing more than half of the very leading problems like diseases, sicknesses, climate change, agricultural destruction, and death? What's the top leading thing causing all these things just said?
Consuming animal based products.

Secrets That Lie Within The Government, Meat & Dairy Industries
The government is in cahoots with the meat and dairy industry. We live in a world where people are only driven off of money and power. They'll always choose profit over health. They really don't care about us or our health (They're making bank off of our doctor visits, supplements, pill consumption, health insurances, purchasing of animal products...).
For many years, researchers have suspected that animal protein is not optimal for human health. This information has sometimes bubbled to the surface only to get buried in a sea of miss information because of the influence of industry & government. -Nelson Campbell
There have been multiple studies shown and demonstrated that a whole vegan plant based diet outweighs ALL other diet lifestyles. Studies have also shown that a whole plant based diet not only brings us complete and optimal health, but has the power to reverse and treat illnesses. There have been many upon several tests done, 100% proving this to be very accurate and true. see references to learn more
A vegan diet deals with issues from it's root cause and as a whole, rather than the surface.
You never here a vegan complain about any sicknesses, illnesses or diseases in their lives. Because God given plants is literally our bodies life giving fuel and medicine! It is all we need to live a complete, thriving, and healthy life! THIS is the truth all along!
It is all starting to make sense. I feel triggered and duped that we've been blinded and literally fooled for this long, and could have been living a better and HEALTHIER life than BEFORE. Whoever gave us the stereotypical picture of veganism, telling us that veganism is lacking and NOT a way of life, is mistaken.
We have come to a mindset conclusion that living solely on whole plant-based foods alone is impossible and ridiculous, and that we need meat and dairy products to live off of.
Our bodies do not want or need any of these complicated things. We should re-learn this information and what we've been taught, and actually look into this. Get educated in veganism, read books, watch informative videos, surf the web, call a friend or whatever you have to do to gain more knowledge about it. This is something to look into.
Truth Behind Veganism Knowledge That They Don't Want Us Knowing
One of the most common misconceptions about veganism (that I once believed) is: "wouldn't you miss out on certain nutrients?"
If the number one worry is whether you would be missing nutrients on a whole plant based diet, we may have 99 problems.. but this isn't one.
Think about this, where do animals get their nutrients from? A:______________?
Animals do not naturally supply, or self produce protein, or any other vitamins or nutrients on their own. They get their nutrients from eating plants, Initially for themselves to flourish, but today, they are labeled as a commodity and as an item of food, instead of animals that want to live and thrive; for themselves.
If we can get all the very nutrients we need from plants, why aren't we getting it all from these pure, first-hand sources?
There is no way we can miss out on these very nutrients on a whole plant based diet, they're simply all there, in our plants. It's where all sources of vitamins and nutrients come from. Without plants, we wouldn't be able to get nutrients anywhere else.
We assume that meat is hearty, thick, and filling and that there's no way we could survive off of thin, light, lettuce and apples. This is a false belief about plant-based diet. We would be surprised how natural foods from the ground that God supplied us with is way more filling and satisfying to our bodies than meat and dairy will ever be.
Meat is too much for our bodies to handle.
It is true when they say that every single one of us, our bodies, cannot process meat. Our bodies alkaline levels and organ structure already tell us that eating meat is not sustainable. "A steak dinner can take days to get out of your intestine. What that means is the way you digest it is basically to rot it in your intestines. On the other hand, if you eat vegetables and fruits, they're out of your system in less than 12 hours." -Dr. Oz.
So no wonder why we "feel fuller longer," because it sits there in the intestines rotting for it to digest. This rotting process from meat staying in the body is what causes colon cancer studies show. That's why when people have colon cancer, one of the first things doctors suggest is to lower your meat consumption.
If we had to kill, skin, gut, and chop animals ourselves everyday from start to finish, we probably wouldn't even fathom eating meat as often as we do now. Killing animals and doing the whole gutting, stripping, and chopping process down to the bone is very grisly & gory compared to picking an apple off a tree. We have these instinct feelings for a reason. It is not of our nature to do these things.
Simply: We don't need meat.
The Truth And The Fact is
I want to tell you guys somewhat of an interesting story before I wrap things up...
In case you haven't known or thought to realize, in cattle, the females are called COWS and the males are called BULLS. They all don't share the same thing having udders that just produce this white sorcery called milk. They make it seem like there is nothing to it, that these spotted black and white looking advertised animals share the same entity.
So, what is the reality and the process of how cows milk is really made? We all know that it's after a baby is born that a mother can begin milk production. When a baby calf is born, it's then ready to feed on the mother cows milk to live, grow and flourish on. Instead, in cattle, they kill or take away the baby. They take the mother and suction the milk from her breasts (or udder) through machines until she's all "dried off." They repeat this process over and over again artificially inseminating her to become pregnant over again in order to produce yet.. more milk. This milk is going to us instead of the baby calf itself that needs and uses this stuff for it's main growth and development stages of life. Watch 5 minute video "Dairy Is Scary" by Erin Janus to learn more
A mother cow naturally produces enough milk for her young. This is why cows are genetically engineered and fed growth hormones to force them to produce more milk.
So, does this seem pretty normal? Or likely justifiable? Or am I tripping...? (If your answer is perhaps yes - that it's fine and normal, I feel this is exactly how the industry got us and manipulated us all). This isn't natural or right. Stealing a baby from it's mother and all of it's milk, that our bodies do not even want or need. I know this doesn't seem like a big deal when it's plainly said, but once we realize that we don't need meat or dairy products at all, and that it's causing more harm than good on both sides, that's when it hits. It all starts to make complete sense. Imagine if the roles were reversed to humans in place of the cows, and it was called "Human Milk Trafficking." They artificially inseminate the females so that they become pregnant, where she will then begin her cycle of having a baby and producing milk, eventually taking away and selling for profit or killing her baby. It's truly the same conception. I'm not trying to be overdramatic. It is just a more realistic visual analogy.
They claim that a mother cows milk - initially for a baby calf - is the best source of calcium for us humans. We have been so manipulated and trained to believe that COWS MILK is the answer to our nutritional needs.
In fact, we don't have the enzymes to absorb and consume cows milk. Our body stops producing enzymes after a certain age.
Statistics show that approximately 75% of Americans today are lactose intolerant. Isn't that already saying something? The body is even trying to tell us. Our bodies know. So why aren't we listening to these very symptoms? There's a whole array of plant-based foods loaded with high calcium nutrients. Higher than in cow's milk. See references to see various plant based foods loaded with high calcium nutrients and other nutritional health information
Simply: We don't need cows milk.
To Wrap Things up
Our bodies are very intelligent. Listen to your body. It knows what's up. They're our own personal little doctors. It's very responsive and communactional. When anything is off, our bodies will tell us. We listen and respond and fix whatever it is our body is telling us to rid and toss. It can only do so much to keep us well and alive, so we need to do what it's telling us and help it by doing and supplying what it needs.
Overall, please look more into this, educate yourself on what veganism is and what its about, and why its gaining popularity by the minute. See why it's always such an up & down, back & fourth controversial and overlooked thing. See why. Don't brush it off. Learn the motives and reasons. Literate yourself. Be open-minded. Do your own research. Do what sounds right, not just things you have barely looked into or because everyone else is doing it. The truth is a stubborn thing and it's always seeking to be found. Always be open to learn new things; even if its been the same and around for centuries. Remain teachable. Stay wise. Stay knowledgeable. Listen and Learn. Think outside the box. Question everything. We parish for lack of knowledge. Always be ready and open for change. You never know what may change in your life and in the world. Never say never. Why? Because you never actually know. Remember, there's people who are only driven off of money and power in this world. We've got to stick together as civilians and not always depend on people of higher personal. We have the power to make the change.
