Nutrition and Nails and Hair, oh my!

  • Hey All my Veggie Ladies!

    I've noticed something happening to me that I wasn't expecting: My hair is FULL and my nails are STRONG-- and both are growing way faster than ever before!

    Has anyone else noticed that this has happened since becoming Vegetarian/Vegan?

    Maybe it's the better nutrition--but I'm owing it to the lack of meat
  • I've noticed it as well, its crazy.
  • Thats funny, for me its the opposit. But hey, maybe thats cause Im a lazy vegetarian who doesnt get enough calcium.
  • Me too, I think it's definitely because I eat a ton of veggies and fruit now not because I cut out meat. I seriously never touched veggies when I was a meat eater.
  • Wow, I wish.
  • Totally since since I became vegan - now unfortunately the hair is grey that is coming in but I'll take it!
    To the lazy vegi with little calcium- take a supplement!! So important.
  • Marms-- I was totally the same way... but only because the BF's a carnivore... it was easier for me to just go along with what he's eating (fries are about as "vegetable" as he gets!) than to make a fuss and try to do something good for myself
