    Hazelnut milk nausea?

    Thank you Connie! I've tried almond milk before but didn't really like it, other than that I haven't experimented much with brands or different types because I'm still at school and living with my parents so I don't want to inconvenience them too much by getting different stuff each week ahah -...

    Raw vegan?

    I've heard people rave about the raw vegan diet, but I'm curious since it seems that it would cut out a lot of food that is really good for you, e.g. sweet potato which I can't imagine being eaten raw... Please correct me if you know of a way! Surely a baked sweet potato for example would not be...

    I need help coping

    I think a really good way to find more vegan meals is to start cooking yourself, finding recipes online and experimenting with them.

You should also focus less...

    Finding it a bit tough

    What's important is not to be too preachy, but I think the best way to go is try and gently educate people around you, without being patronising just explain your reasons. There will always be people who will disagree with you because they know that morally you are in the right so they get...

    Hazelnut milk nausea?

    Hi guys, A few months ago I started drinking hazelnut milk. I've never liked cow's milk so have always avoided it and going vegan, nut milks seemed like a good source of calcium etc since they're fortified. However I started getting really nauseous throughout the day - sometimes straight...

    Pet food

    Hi, I've been a vegetarian all of my life, and have recently started transitioning to veganism which isn't too hard diet wise but a little tricky since I'm still at school and I'm living with my parents who cook at lot with cheese, eggs etc. We have two cats and I'm having trouble with the...
