Skyr It Up - “One thing that’s always in my fridge, besides OJ for smoothies, is Siggi’s vanilla and cinnamon nondairy yogurt. There’s no $#@% in there.
Good Read - “After going vegan, I read The World Peace Diet by Dr. Will Tuttle, which really solidified my veganism.”
Baller - “I’ve been a big soccer player my whole life and still play on Sundays with the city league.”
Morning Blend - “Every day, I make a fruit smoothie with chia seeds, hemp hearts, flax seeds, diatomaceous earth, and chaga mushrooms.”
Kick the Habit - “One of the biggest problems vegans have: shoes. When I ditched my go-to John Varvatos leather boots, I thought, ‘Chucks it is.’ Converse has been my lifesaver. ”
