I started eating vegan in late November of last year. I was in NYC for a family event and a relative who saw I was in pain due to the endless walking suggested I give it a shot. I was finally committed to trying anything reasonable, even if it was difficult.

So I set off on a one month experiment that is still on the move.

Do I feel better? Yes and no.

Overall health- I have not been this healthy in decades, two, but still, decades.

Symptoms- expanding in frequency, location and duration.

It was not what I expected. Yet, at the same time it is possible that it could have been much worse without the change. My glucose readings have been better. I did a few days of 10-12 tests to monitor fluctuations.

I am glad that I chose to try it. I'm not even sure when/if I will go back to a "regular" diet. I have yet to experience the results mentioned from the link, but I feel better overall for trying this.
