I was a vegan for 8 years. Now, I am a vegetarian. I switched to
vegetarianism because I got a vitamin D deficiency from having too much
phytic acid intake. I was eating soy products everyday and had no idea it
could be so harmful to my body. Phytic acid is found in all beans and
legums and kills vitamin D essential for absorbing calcium. Soy has the
highest phytic acid content and can cause hormonal imbalance(like irregular
periods and severe cramping). So, if you are a vegan, make sure to limit
your soy intake and pre-soak ALL of your beans and legumes overnight before
cooking. Symptoms of deficiency are muscle weakness, feeling tired all of
the time, and declining dental health. I hope this information helps
someone!

Be careful with eating too many soy based products soy has estrogen like
effects and can cause breast cancer try to only eat it twice a month or
less. If you are going to eat soy make sure it is a fermented soy product
like seitian which is also a meat substitute

I’ve been vegan for 4 years and I still miss crab cakes. lol
Good advice about the change being gradual for you. I was a vegetarian for
2 years before going vegan, so I think it may be a slow process for most.
I can see why you hate Daiya…it took me 2 years to acquire a taste for
it. It’s NOTHING like conventional cheese. lol
Thanks so much for sharing your vegan life, Kim!

I am a recent subscriber and I have to say that you are one of the most
informative gurus and super innovative to boot (that little trick with the
eyeshadow is bomb!) Do you notice any significant health effects (hair,
skin, weight, overall health) from the change in your diet?

I’m a strict vegan and what I do fora cheese alternative is soak cashews
overnight, then put that in the blender. It has a creamy cheese taste, but
it is not like a cheddar cheese. Hope that helps. You can also try other
nuts like almonds, pine nuts, etc.

I get so excited when I get a YouTube notification with your upload. You
range of videos are never boring and is so unexpected.
Thanks for taking time to upload. I truly feel you need a website. Lol

Why are you a vegan? I have cut back on red meat but I find it difficult.
Are there any health benefits to being vegan. It’s hard to find good
tasting vegan/vegetarian food which makes it difficult for me to explore
that avenue. I welcome any helpful comments please.

Rice cheese is really good. I buy a brand by Galaxy Nutritional Foods. It
comes in American “cheese” slices, shredded mozzarella and grated parmesan.
Awesome non dairy non soy option that melts wonderfully!

Try the Quorn Brand meat substitutes. I prefer them over the Boca brand. :)

Great video, have you ever tried making your own Cashew cheese? It’s really
tasty since you make it your liking (also almond cheese), and I know the
feeling, Whole Foods is like a candy store for me too (which it were a
little cheaper though). If there is a EarthFare near you check them out as
well. I’m not vegan, but I am striving to be, I am like 95% vegetarian
(that fish and chicken holds me grounded for now lol). But my aim is to one
day soon get to completely vegetarian and then into being fully vegan (I
may even do raw vegan like +FullyRawKristina )

I’m leaning towards a vegan diet now due to my medical condition. I’m glad
you shared different vegan food that you eat. How do you make your french
toast w/o eggs? And I would really appreciate if you continued to show
variety of vegan food that you eat. Thanks a bunch. And thank you for
sharing!!☆☆☆

You explained your current eating plan so well. Thank you for putting it
just like that.
I thought I was a vegetarian but I still enjoy eating a beef hot dog even
though I dont eat steak. I eat sausages as well.
I did like the Daiya cheese as a cut for cheese and crackers. I forget the
few I tried at the Health fair. I brought the shredded cheddar for egg
scrambles and it was horrific. Thanks for bringing that to mind. I will do
a yelp on it.
Because of cheese at this time, I could not be a vegan.

Field roast just came out with a new cheese! It’s called chao cheese. It’s
absolutely amazing ! It tastes just like cheese. You must try it

I was wondering, are you lactose intolerant now? And were you before you
changed your diet? Also girl you need to get on the Trader Joe’s bus lol.
Trader Joe’s groceries are half the price cheaper than Whole Foods & most
of Trader Joe’s suppliers are farmers markets so you are getting real &
pure organic & better quality foods for less money. Since they opened more
in NYC I ONLY shop there now!

I can relate to that upset feeling your get from consuming real milk and
cheese. From what I’ve learned so far, humans are not supposed to consume
diary past childhood so natural your adult body suppose to reject it.
