Episode 11 of my south African Adventure !! The bike is finally ready to go, and I'm packing it up for the first trial ride ! If you're wondering why I stopped being a "vegan"- Its because my health was rapidly declining. I was vegan for two years and during that two years, I happened to also experience the worse stress of my life. My body was unable to absorb the nutrients and I became very ill. I lost 80 % of my hair and became very anemic. I chose to start eating meat again because I thought that would help ( it didn't ) . It was a conscious decision to start eating it again and was difficult to change my mind set. When I went vegan- I changed cold turkey. And after I had such a mind shift towards meat. I even tried to test myself and eat it one day and was absolutely repulsed by the taste I once loved . I had watched a very impactful video on the mass meat industry that had changed my mind in an instant. Suddenly- I was no longer eating delicious meat- but I was eating a raw dead animal. So, the switch was easy.. What wasn't easy was starting to eat it again.. Yes, in this video I appear to like it quite a lot.. Once I forced the shift to make myself to eat meat again- the taste came back. Knowing the animals were also "ethically" killed ( not tortured) and free range, and also every part of the animal was used - this made it easier. I still did not eat mass produced meat as this industry makes me sick. All of this meat was hunted and caught locally. After my south Africa trip, I went back to being a vegan ( minus fish) And my taste buds have gone back to dis- liking meat again. My health never did improve- however my hair did grow back- But I might contribute that to the Camel Urine ;) When I travel now- If someone does offer me meat- I try not to refuse it- If I know it is home grown. If that;s all they have and they are willing to share it- I personally think it is rude to refuse, So I will eat a little. I don't believe in torturing animals, or mass production meat/animal product factories. I do not support that in anyway. Especially all the crap they feed the animals and the antibiotics they use- that energy and chemicals is going into your BODY ! Not to mention the poor lives that are been tortured their entire lives and beaten in their last breaths. . But if people want to eat meat- that is their choice. Not anyones' to judge. If you can buy ethically sourced animal products, that is better for you and the environment/animals. Try to make a conscious decision when you purchase your animal products, and know where it comes from and what you'er putting in your bodies.
