What am I giving my body for it to run on, what is the source of the energy and is it optimal for me to run clean and clear. If I eat an animal I eat everything it has experienced also and as an empath I had to start getting really clear about what goes thru me.

Feeding farm animals is one of the largest contributors to deforestation3. Overfishing is destroying ocean lifeHealth 1. Animal products are incredibly fatty 2. We are not eating enough fruits and veggies3. 98% of the necesarry nutrients are found on non animal products4. I can poop much better ♡Animals1. They are abused in almost all types of settings 2. They have feelings too3. They deserve betterThat is all I have… unless the person asks for more information I always try to be as concise and to the point as possible and to be as neutral and friendly to help people remove the angry vegan stereotypes. Be smart vegans ✌?

Milani Garcia: because I do not need others to die for me to live well. …more verbose is ? I agree. Plant based VEGAN diet and world is the NATURAL way to SAVE THE WORLD ! and creation animals wildlife people generally. ANIMAL AGRICULTURE IS DESTROYING us all !Isaiah 11:6-9New International Version (NIV)6 The wolf will live with the lamb,the leopard will lie down with the goat,the calf and the lion and the yearling will feed together;and a little child will lead them.7 The cow will feed with the bear,their young will lie down together,and the lion will eat straw like the ox.8 The infant will play near the cobras den,and the young child will put its hand into the vipers nest.9 They will neither harm nor destroyon all my holy mountain,for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lordas the waters cover the sea.Isaiah 11:6 The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them.Isaiah 65:25 The wolf and the lamb will feed together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox, and dust will be the serpents food. They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain.There are 2 Entries very similar in Isaiah about the Future Ideal World. The Kingdom of God on Earth. BOTH talk about Wolves, Lions, Lambs and a VEGAN WORLD. No Kill Policy in full to be achieved.Isaiah 66 goes on to be more specific about NOT wanting ANIMAL DEATHS in fact !These are the ones I look on with favor:those who are humble and contrite in spirit,and who tremble at my word.But whoever sacrifices a bull is like one who kills a person,and whoever offers a lamb is like one who breaks a dogs neck;whoever makes a grain offering is like one who presents pigs blood,and whoever burns memorial incense is like one who worships an idol.They have chosen their own ways,and they delight in their abominations…They did evil in my sight and chose what displeases me.
