"When people ask, why are you vegan? I respond, if you knew what I now know, you may consider it too. I haven’t always been vegan, one day I just made the connection. My experience is that moving towards a plant-based diet will improve one’s health dramatically and meet some of the biggest challenges facing our planet right now.
