A introduction to my raw, vegan fruitarian lifestyle #Introduceyourself

Thanks for the tips! If you mean soy products, I try to stay away from them, because they supposedly contain estrogen.

yes, phytoestrogens...isoflavones which can mimic estrogen in our bodies. i stay away from soy products too! i don't eat a lot of meat, and i will second the jackfruit recommendation for something that mimics meat if you need that in the beginning. also, EGGPLANT! and mushrooms...even bell peppers...all of these are great substitutes for the taste and feel of meat depending on the recipe. as far as nutritional content, quinoa, chia seeds and spirulina are all complete proteins...but anyone eating a whole foods diet will be getting enough protein as long as they are consuming enough calories. sorry to butt in, lol! just thought i would share!

No need to be sorry, thank you for the input! That's two votes for the jackfruit. I might have to try that at some point. ty!
