Vegan diet=___ detox symptoms?!


Question: Vegan diet=___ detox symptoms!?
I was a veggie for 7 yrs!. then sadly gave it up for 1 yr!. Now I am going vegan (for the long haul--I finally "get it" and am better educated about nutrition now)!. I am really tired, have excess phlegm, and my stomach is upset!. Are these related symptoms!?

What symptoms did you have when you went vegan!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Yes, those are detox symptoms!. You may also be experiencing some skin flare ups!.

Avoid all processed foods and increase the amount of fiber you're consuming!. Eating lots (at least 2 cups) of raw fibrous vegetables (carrots, celery, cauliflower) will cleanse your system quickly, and you'll be feeling great in a couple of days!Www@FoodAQ@Com

It is not uncommon whilst on a health kick to go through detoxification!. In fact when I first started to really go healthy with the filtered water, organic foods, less refined sugars etc, I never felt so horrid in all my life!. But eventually I got through it and never felt better!.

In the least you need antioxidants!. You mostly can get what you need via foods such as C from fresh citrus fruits, E from green leafy vegetables, Zinc from pumpkin seeds, Vitamin A from carrots and sweet potatoes, etc!. You could take a multiple antioxidant if you are really worried!. Just go to your local health food store or vitamin shop!.

Have faith you'll feel better soon : )Www@FoodAQ@Com
