I probably started out in a similar place to you, but then went fully plant-based and my health immediately improved. I immediately got in the best shape of my life and my eyesight improved to where I don't need contacts anymore.
Interesting. Would you consider that you eat a standard vegan diet - maybe whole foods vegan?
reply
I would say I aspire to a whole foods vegan diet, but implement it imperfectly. I don't eat many grains and I avoid anything with added sugar, seed oils, etc.
reply
Was avoiding added sugar and seed oils something new when you went fully plant based? Or is that something you did before as well?
reply
I was already avoiding sugar, but I also wasn't nearly as diligent about my diet when I was in my early 20's.
Seed oils weren't on my radar until the past few years. I had a sense of which oils were healthier than others, so I would have been slightly avoiding them, but I didn't realize that seed oils were basically toxic.
