Love this video❤ great tips ❤
Ive been vego for 10years and ive cut down so much more so almost there and proud of my journey. Ive come a long way. Im constantly educating myself to better my journey.Its vegan month for me ❤ so glad about it ❤what really spoke to me in this video is when you might refuse chemo and they you would die and arent able to advocate for veganism.❤ the medication topic is something very few discuss, thank you❤
"Every step in the right direction is good for animals" this is exactly what i needed to hear❤ and meeting animals i agree is the best way to connect with your values. New sub here🎉
I love all the new vegan products available now days too 😊😊😊😊
I love that kindness and doing the best you can were stressed in this video. I am as close to vegan as I can safely be but I have some medical issues that lead to a very restricted diet and when I'm in a flare up mode the only thing I can eat is eggs. Literally nothing else. No substitute will work when I'm in that state and I can't just wait it out since it can last for weeks or months at a time. I've gotten a lot of judgment from vegans and vegetarians for this but the only alternative is for me to get a feeding tube and the nutrition you get that way is almost never vegan.
I am very supportive of a vegan and ethical lifestyle but there's only so much I can do. I wish I wasn't shunned by so many for just doing what I have to do to survive. After all, humans are animals as well and deserve compassion and understanding.
I've been vegan for a long time now. I don't even remember when I started eating a plant based diet. Anyhow, I'd really like for my adult daughter to eat a vegan diet. I think it'd be so much healthier for her. She'll eat my curries and soups and stews but she loves her chicken sandwiches, nuggets, etc. I've made the vegan versions and she loves them. So, for those dipping a toe or helping others to start a vegan lifestyle, fake meats work. Not having to give up burgers and chicken sandwiches and cheese steaks etc can help a lot. She's eating maybe 80% vegan now, without even thinking about it. I never say, you're vegan! I just keep making delicious food, adding in fake meat meals and watching it grow. In fact, her new favorite mac n cheese is the vegan one I make. She even asks for it now
I know this is a year old but I'm just now seeing it. If anyone told me my vaccination, chemo and immunotherapy made me not vegan I'd laugh at them. That's all they deserve. Thanks for all you do
You’re so great. I’m so glad I found you. AND I just learned about your cook book. 🎉
Thank you!!!!! I'm slowly moving into veganism…. This was very helpful and informative.
I have an idea has anyone tried vegan seafood
😍😍❤️❤️great vid
This is my favorite video you've made
I really love your personality feel like you would be a great friend!
You can find cows that act like dogs on The Dodo. Watch a few videos and you'll be vegan in no time, lol.
Woah, this is the best video on going vegan I have seen and I have been vegan for 5 years so I have seen many. I love how practical your tips are, how you have really thought through the real life things people have to deal. The point about being around animals like pigs and cows really moved me. And how you lead with kindness and compassion. I am so happy and moved that I saw your video today. Love you Candace, I really appreciate the hard work you put in your videos and how thoughtful you are. ❤
The „be nice to omnivores“ (or at least make peace with the fact that they are) is a lot like preparing Tofu correctly: The preferable way is quite obvious – but still a LOT of (newer; maybe non-asian?) vegans do the same mistakes when they start. (I‘m allowed to say that, I made both mistakes more than once 😅)
You are the first person I've ever heard who talks about the idea of eliminating 'obvious' dairy and eggs as a step toward eliminating animal products. I am SO thankful someone else has taken this approach. I'm plant based (for the planet, and my health) and have made it to avoiding the obvious stuff (when it is in my control), and have moved into using alternates in recipes at home. I live with omnis, and they have not even paid attention — everything I make for the family is veganized. When I say 'in my control' I mean that I I still don't ask "is there an egg in this?" if someone brings a batch of cookies as a gift for our family, and if I'm at a restaurant or at a friend's and the only thing available has a bit of butter or an egg in the ingredients somewhere, I will have it, because the alternative is me going hungry and/or embarrassing the host or wasting the food they made for me. I appreciate that you are offering these ideas as an inclusive step.
This is by FAR the best and most helpful video I've watched. Thank you so much!
i've been plant based for like 5-6 years and i still enjoyed the video so much to help myself communicate to others!!
I love this video 🙌🏼 These are amazing tips!
I took my sister and her kids to a farm sanctuary north of Toronto, trying to get her to see the animals herself. One hour after we leave the sanctuary, she orders Swiss Chalet.
So I keep trying to be vegan but beans and soy wreck havoc on my stomach…. any suggestions on protein sources that don't include legumes and soy???
This was really great, I went vegan last January and it was good at first but then I got lost and went back to being pescatarian. This January I am going to slowly transition to vegan to hopefully have it stick this time. ✌🏻🖤
Anybody tell Kadie Karen (That Vegan Teacher) that this is what a real vegan looks like and acts?
You are so relatable! Great video. I have been vegan for 11 years and I couldn't have given ten better tips.
