Hello everyone,
I'm a new vegan. I haven't eaten any meat since last week and went cold turkey into becoming a vegan mainly due to health reasons.
I've tried to become lacto-ovo vegan before but developed a bad case of gas after a few days of not eating meat. I went to my doctor in a panic and he sent me to a nutrionist who wasn't a vegan of course. She told me that I should not stop eating meat and that my case of gas was due to me eating to much leafy green vegetables. Not knowing any better I followed her advise and ended right back eating meat again.
I just graduated college with a bachelors degree in health science which I took a few nutrition classes before I graduated and a wellness class with a major focus on nutrition/alternative health. Nevertheless, I know better now.
Thus, I have become a vegan and I suffer from gas (no stomach pain) and I can only think the cause of this is due to a sort of cleansing process.
Can someone tell me if this happened to them and if so for how long did it last for?
Thanks,
