I went vegan at 13, I'm 28, I have never had any dairy, eggs, pork, shellfish, or beef. Thank goodness! I am my parent's second child, and my mom stopped eating dairy before I was born and growing up I'd say my mom and I didn't eat dairy. She breast fed me, and tried to be as organic as much as possible.
I stopped eating chickens and turkeys at 13 which were the only animals I'd been eating. Since then my mom has gone vegan, her and I have reversed her R.A.. Both my grandparents are vegan now, my grandad no longer has diabetes!! I am now a certified nutritionist and want to help as many people as I can!
