heart attacks, midwestern meat & potatoes, forks...
Back story:
For the past 6 years i have been vegan and influenced countless others to go vegan, vegetarian or cut back their meat consumption to improve their overall health. My father had a heart attack 5 weeks ago. His heart stopped 3 times and he had a triple bypass. The doctor said, if he wanted to recover and live, he needed to greatly reduce his consumption of meat, eggs and dairy and eat lots of vegetables, fruits and unprocessed whole foods. They know i have lost 120 pounds and have trained and helped lots of people get in shape and i am knowledgeable with nutrition, so they turned to me for guidance. Even though i have been talking about veganism for over 6 years, like most people who need to change their lifestyle, nothing is done until something dramatic happens. I bought them a Netflix subscription, since they are in a super small town (less than a 1000 people) and don't have great video access or internet knowledge. I added some movies to their queue and they received Food Inc. & Forks Over Knives in the mail a few weeks ago. My mom and my dad watched Food Inc. about a week ago and couldn't believe how their food was made and were appalled by factory farming and the GMO (genetically modified organisms) in their food.
Skip to text from my mom last night:
"Just watched forks over knives, that was REALLY good. All the information they have about plant based diets vs. animal based, kind of overwhelming and shocking. Its amazing how simple and healthy we should be eating. Having it laid out like that was really educational. After eating this way for 56 years, its clear we need to change our eating habits and lifestyle. We are going to start slow with cutting out processed foods and meat. Hopefully in time we can transition to 100% plant based diet, and maybe in the future eliminate animal products in other areas of our lives as well. Can you suggest some good cookbooks and vegan resources."
No matter what anyone says: You DO MAKE A DIFFERENCE as a vegan, even if its just one life. Remember that next time some loser tries to bring you down for being compassionate.
