It's never too late to go plant-based and meet all your nutritional needs and thrive. Hello. I'm Karin and I'm 60+. I've been vegan for 20+ years. Obligation free.

My teenage children eat plant-based and my husband finally jumped in last year. Choosing to go plant-based or vegan is a wonderful choice. There are so many benefits to eating a well planned, healthy and nutritious plant-based diet. Whatever brought you to this choice in your middle years there's lots to take care of nutritionally. Eating plant-based is easier than ever but it doesn't guarantee that it's healthier; for that you need to pay attention to what you eat, how you eat and when you eat. I'm a Certified Food and Nutrition Coach specialising in helping people transition to eating 100% plant-based and thrive. This page is a place to share ideas and recipes, ask questions, tell us what works for you and what didn't, things you've learned about yourself on the way and feel supported. In general to listen and share and encourage each other. Jumping straight in or transitioning gradually? That's your choice. Enthusiasm is key and so is being prepared, informed and focussed. When it's done right eating plant-based has the potential to:

Help with weight loss
Lower the odds of getting, or reducing, heart disease
Improve overall health
Lower blood pressure
Reduce the risk of diabetes
Lower cholesterol
Lower inflammation

In addition it's better for the environment and it saves animal from suffering. This page is for sharing ideas, posting questions, proud moments, great recipes .

Why choose a good diet, when you can choose the BEST? Adding to the wealth of data already in existence, research results published this week indicate that plant-based diets can offer protective health benefits and help lower cancer risk. In addition, eating vegan has the best health outcomes*, with plant-based and vegetarian following behind.

A new study indicates that vegans saw the greatest benefit, with up to a 24% lower cancer risk overall. The strongest reductions were seen in stomach, lymphoma and colorectal cancers. Vegetarians have a 12% lower overall cancer risk compared to those who eat meat.

The study is titled "Longitudinal associations between vegetarian dietary habits and site-specific cancer risk in the Adventist Health Study-2," published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition in 2024. It analyzed data from over 79,000 participants, primarily Seventh-day Adventists, and found that vegans had a 24% lower risk of all cancers compared to non-vegetarians. Specific reductions were noted for prostate cancer in younger men, as well as for colorectal, stomach, and lymphoma cancers.

*A vegan diet/way of eating is most effective when given thought, preparation and planning. If concerned seek nutrition advice before adopting it.

All of the dishes in my photos are vegan. Delicious.
