[QUOTE="Deleted member 3576, post: 17257"] Hello, I have made the switch to being vegan before and absolutely loved it, except for digestive problems. When I was vegan, every health complaint I had, people would say 'It's because you're vegan!' These health problems were tummy pain, bloating, headaches, being cold all the time, feeling tired... So I gave eating meat a trial again. The results were mixed. When I ate exclusively eggs, chicken and fish, I felt great (except still being cold all the time). At first, I tried bacon but was disgusted by it so decided not to eat red meat. Typical meat-eater thinking - that somehow eating SOME animals but not others is more okay : unamused:. When I had a 'normal' diet with those cruel products, everything was exactly the same. A doctor told me to try a low-FODMAP diet and it transformed my life. So now I know the [B]real[/B] reason for my digestive problems and that my health problems were exactly the same regardless of being meat-eater, pescatarian, vegetarian or vegan. I've made the switch to a being a low-FODMAP vegan. Although I am ashamed that I went back to eating meat again, knowing exactly the suffering that chickens and fish go through, I feel absolutely convinced that being vegan, in itself, does not cause more health problems. It's just an easy excuse that people use. I have a renewed conviction to be vegan for life :cool: [/QUOTE]
