Compassion for all living creatures is an essential. I have been vegan since November 2015. The improvements to my health and well-being have prevented hereditary chronic disease and significantly improved fitness level. It has added new meaning and purpose to my life. Vegan for the beautiful animals, for sustainability and for my health. I try to lead a zero waste life style. Eat whole foods, compost food scraps, recycle meaningfully, use electric vehicle or public transport and use solar power.
