Talking 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

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.

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
