Tips for an Anti-Inflammatory Vegan Diet

Tips for an Anti-Inflammatory Vegan Diet
One of the biggest misconceptions about vegans is that we’re all super health conscious. While this may be true for some, there are plenty who change their diet for other reasons such as ethics or spirituality. When I initially went vegan, health was not my main concern – and it showed by how I shamelessly snacked on Oreos and potato chips like my life depended on it. But after being diagnosed with an endocrine disorder that caused extremely painful inflammation in my body, I knew I had to sacrifice my snacks and make some additional alterations in my eating habits. Here are some tips I’ve gathered over the years that have helped me (mostly!) successfully stay on an anti-inflammatory vegan diet.

Fun Ways to Get Masculine Folks Into Skincare

Fun Ways to Get Masculine Folks Into Skincare

Sometimes, it can be really tough to get men or masculine folks to care about their skin. Somewhere through history, society decided to associate grooming with feminine features only.

It’s a shame, but it doesn’t have to stay this way. Social norms are not set in stone. You just have to be willing to help move things along. So, if you want to help your man along towards a better path for his skin, and he's avoiding it for the sake of “manliness,” then read our tips about how to shift the tides and get him into skin care.

Wanna Go Vegan, but Not Sure Where to Start?

Wanna Go Vegan, but Not Sure Where to Start?
Some say it’s a fad, others it’s a lifestyle, and for many, it’s a path to healthy living. It’s also, of course, a major lifestyle adjustment that doesn’t always come easy. Habits take time to break. And as someone who’s recently attempted veganism, resetting my palate and resisting the urge to go back to my animal-eating ways has been a challenge, but I’ve pushed through. It is totally doable, and millions of people around the world live plant-based, and so can you.

Three Easy Things Anyone Can Do to Improve their Mental Health

Our bodies may be the vehicle that carries us from point A to point B, but our minds are our engines. It doesn’t matter how shiny and expensive a car looks on the outside, it will not run if the engine is broken, and that goes for our minds, too. In order for us to truly thrive, our minds, along with our body, have to operate in harmony. While there is no foolproof path to achieving optimal mental health,  the good news is that there are small things, if done in conjunction, that anyone can do to improve their overall wellbeing.
