Vegan?

Right when you finally got used to vegetarians, vegans were introduced.  This newer sect left some of us confused as to what vegan really meant.  According to the Merriam-Webster online dictionary, a vegan is a strict vegetarian who consumes no animal food or dairy products.

Kathy Freston, also known as the Veganist has presented new ways of looking at this lifestyle.  She has helped Oprah Winfrey with the 21 Day Cleanse, as well as much of her Harpo staff to take a seven day Vegan Challenge.  Freston claims you can lose weight and drop your blood pressure.

The vegan lifestyle is continuously forming new ways to incorporate itself in everyday life.  Alicia Silverstone, author of The Kind Diethas also made this her way of life.   She also has a blog called The Kind Life which shares ways to save the planet, including fashion by Vaute Couture.

While I'm not converted, yet, I am definitely interested enough to consider a seven day challenge.
