Is this a wise/unwise choice? I don't want to do this if it could compromise my health (brain health especially). Can a body- and brain-healthy diet be constructed in the absence of animal meat?
I went vegetarian / mostly vegan about two months ago and I'm feeling much better. I have Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis dx 2006. I asked my doctor before doing the change and she actually encouraged it. I do take other vitamins to make sure, but many people think of you don't eat meat your not getting your proteins etc... You actually get all those thing's from plant based foods. If in doubt consult with your doctor. I highly recommend it if that's what your thinking about doing.
