Oprah has just announced that she's embarking on a 21-day vegan diet. The idea of this diet came from a book, Quantum Wellness, by the best-selling author Kathy Freston. Apparently in the Oprah's talk show, Oprah was not a vegan supporter and this had created interesting topics within the online and offline communities.
The question I'm probing you today is whether being a vegan is effective in detox or weight loss?
I was a vegan when I'm a little kid and had been until the age of 13. And it was when I started to eat some meat like chicken or fish. It was by choice that I've chosen meat again because of the stereotyped thinking that a child would need to consume meat in order for them to grow healthily. However, I still chose to restrain myself towards food like beef, pork, mutton, basically the red meat. Sometimes there are period of time when I'm totally vegan but there are times when I'm eating meat too.
The question is whether is there a difference between eating vegan or meat?
From my experience, whenever I'm vegan for a consecutive number of days, my body feels energetic and healthy. That is provided when the food I eat is healthy. It maybe has a psychological effect rather than a real effect I do not really
know.
What I can really say is that it depends on various factors to decide whether the food you eat will be benefits or detrimental effects to your body. Sometimes you are eating meat and you can still be much healthier than someone who eat vegan.
It depends on the factors like the cooking method, the food itself, the side ingredients added, the amount of oil added, the food combination, and your mood at that point in time. All of these would affect how the body would react in the short and long run.
My guess is Oprah would have a successful vegan diet with great feedbacks. With a great chef, the food she eats is delicious as well as healthy. Many of the people find it difficult to change to vegan diet because they don't have a great chef and a great healthy vegan place to eat! But don't give up so early. Keep on going!
