  1. Ah thank you, I did wonder myself. I looked at a few detox diets and couldn't see a huge amount of a difference between them and clean eating vegan (apart from the vegan bit) - so thank you. I like the raw vegan idea and I'm incorporating more of that into my daily diet anyway.

  3. Hi guys, I've been vegetarian for over 20 years and vegan since February. I'm thinking of detoxing possibly every 12 weeks (seems to be suggested from initial research) However, I am very cleaning eating so I wondered if anyone here were following any detoxing programmes that might be able to give me a few pointers on foodstuffs and preferred frequency. Thanks! Leena
  4. Agreed - I'm not a bodybuilder but I build muscle easily and my protein comes from vegan sources. Legumes and rice makes a complete protein. There so much info here on this forum! Good luck and welcome I'm pretty new here too.
  5. Wow - these stories are interesting. I went vegan (from vegetarian) in Feb this year and experienced zero change in my weight, fat % or inches, fitness or strength. I don't know why. I was hoping I would lose fat and inches (from the omission of dairy and eggs.) I'm a martial artist and train about 3 hours a day. Though I guess it wasn't a drastic change for me I never really ate eggs or milk - a fair amount of cheese was the last thing to go as I think it can be for some veggies.
  6. Hi there, I will do - looking forward to connecting with many folks here!
  7. Hi there - thanks for the welcome!
  8. Hi guys I have a question about Hayabusa Tokushu Engineered Leather Gloves - Vylar Boxing gloves. I hear they are a vegan alternative to actual cow leather gloves but I am confused as to what the material actually is. I have done a number of Google searches and found very little. I think I originally found the information about these gloves on Sherdog and messaged a couple of the members there with no reply. The reason I am interested is of course because vinyl can cause facial contusions plus I've ripped through my new gloves in about 3 months already and I'm looking for something better now. What do you think? Thanks in advance. Leena
  9. Hi, Kyokushin karate - 10 years practice here. Going for my black belt next year
  10. Hello, I'm Leena, I'm a martial artist and fitness enthusiast. I have been in martial arts since the age of 14 starting with judo and moving through kickboxing, boxing, muay thai and my foundation style which is kyokushin karate. I spend an average of 2-3 hours training everyday (barring injuries) and aside from karate I do a range of cross training from free weights, bodyweight intervals, running, step classes, spinning, kettlebells, yoga etc I like to vary things to keep my body guessing. I was vegetarian from 14 years old too and became vegan in February this year (Gave up cheese found Vegusto which to me tastes better!) My goals are to achieve my black belt next Summer it is a 4 day grading at a camp. Other interests are music, music business (my work) conservation, animal welfare, protection of the environment, vegan food! entrepreneurship, business, health and wellbeing. Leena
