Top tips to stay Vegan

1. Take it one day at a time

This is your choice and you can do this your way. Going vegan is a marathon and not a sprint after all.

2. Transition to veganism gradually

It’s not just all about food. When you go vegan it’s shocking to discover how animals are used in clothing, shoes, cosmetics, toiletries and household products. When something wears out, then find a vegan alternative and the same with products, replace it with a cruelty-free version when empty.

3. Remember the reasons for going vegan

Whether it was for your health, our environment, animals, or a combination of all three. Taking time to remember why you are doing this will help you stay on track especially when you are questioning yourself.

4. Remember the animals

Despite the growth in veganism, still around 70 billion land animals are slaughtered every year. Each animal is as unique and aware as the dogs and cats with which we share our lives, each with a personality and a desire to live.

5. Explore and discover

Like with everything it’s easy to get comfortable and stuck in a rut. Keep your vegan life fresh and fun by trying new menus at restaurants, learning different recipes, trying out new products or clothing. Vegan life is exciting and is moving so fast so you shouldn’t be living a boring plant based life.

6. Most importantly – enjoy it!

A happy vegan is a permanent vegan.

10 Powerful Ingredients – What they are and what they do:

Fucus Vesiculosus Extract

5-HTP, Guarana, Zinc Pyruvate, Yerba Mate, Flaxseed Oil, Lecithin, L-Carnitine, Zinc Citrate and sweet vanilla. Fucus Vesiculosus Extract A natural sea plant extract that has been used for hundereds of years by traditional healers worldwide to aide varying ailments. Fucus Vesiculosus has more recently been used by both herbalists and conventional practitioners to help in weight control.

5 HTP

During dieting, serum tryptophan levels and CNS serotonin levels drop dramatically. These low serotonin levels in obese patients have been associated with carbohydrate cravings and resultant binge eating. 5-HTP can help prevent this dieting-associated decline in serotonin, thus enhancing weight loss. 3 clinical trials in obese patients have demonstrated decreased food intake and subsequent weight loss with 5-HTP supplementation.

Guarana

This is an extract of the Guarana plant, which was originally used by Amazonian Indians as a stimulant and a treatment for stress.

Zinc

Pyruvate Pyruvate is a combination of highly unstable pyruvic acid and other substances like calcium, sodium or potassium, added to stabilize pyruvic acid. This new compound is used to enhance fat burning, boost endurance, increase lean muscle mass, decrease blood glucose and lower blood cholesterol.

Yerba Mate

Yerba Mate is an evergreen member of the holly family; it grows wild in Argentina, Chile, Peru, and Brazil, but is most abundant in Paraguay, where it is cultivated. In 1964 one group of investigators from the Pasteur Institute and the Paris Scientific Society concluded that Yerba Mate contains nearly all of the vitamins necessary to sustain life. Yerba Mate is often used as a staple food, sometimes substituting for such important foods as bread and vegetables. It easily eliminates the sensation of hunger and can impart as much invigoration as a full meal, according to the well-known Chilean herbalists J. Zin and R. Weiss.

Flaxseed Oil

Despite all the concern about fat in our diet, the body does require fat to function. The problem is that most people are getting the wrong kinds of fats in their diet and are lacking the so-called “good” fats in their diets. The human body cannot function properly without 2 polyunsaturated fats – linoleic and alpha-linolenic acid. These fatty acids, which are found in Flaxseed Oil are essential to normal cell structure and body function.

Lecithin

Lecithin contains Choline & Inositol which are essential for the breakdown of fats and cholesterol. It helps prevent arterial congestion and distribute bodyweight, increase immunity to virus infections, cleans the liver and purifies the kidneys.

L-Carnitine

Facilitates the burning of fat for energy by making it possible for the long chain fatty acids it transports to enter the cell. If the fatty acids cannot reach the mitochondria where they are transformed to cellular energy, it stands to reason they are going to be deposited in places where the body will suffer from their presence, as happens in fatty liver disease, fatty build-up in the heart, and obesity, where fatty build-up occurs in the muscles.

Zinc

Citrate Zinc is required for many functions in the body, including growth, taste and smell, nucleic acid synthesis, keratin metabolism, sexual development and function in both genders, bone and joint metabolism, wound healing, brain development, nerve function and behavior, and lipid and carbohydrate metabolism.
