How long until my body is completely animal free?

Question

I've been vegetarian for a month now and eat very healthy and work out 4 times a week. In the month before I decided to go vegetarian I only ate tuna about 3 times a week [it was the last thing i gave up] So I was wondering, has my body completely finished flushing out all the animal inside of me yet? Or does it take longer than a month?. I feel so much better now though, and lighter to carry myself, I feel so fresh and my skin feels and looks great times 10! Just wondering if my insides are as happy :) Lol.


THANKS!
Hope my question didn't confuse anyone >.<

Answer 1

lowl, it makes sense. You should be free of animal products by now. If you plan on going completly vegetarian, you may want to make sure you take a good multi vitamin every day. You may be feeling good now, but you can literally starve yourself by eating only vegetables, and fruits. (dunno if you eat cheese or dairy products) Meat has vital nutriants, like fat and protein that you will not find in most veggies/fruits. Good luck, and if you start feeling weak, or light headed, you may want to talk to a doctor.

Answer 2

You should be pretty good now =) Not saying you need too, but if you still eat milk/egg/cheese products you should try to give those up..and research all the foods that use animal products in them. Baked goods of all kinds that aren't fresh typically 90% of them have non-vegetarian friendly dough conditioners. If you want more info on this contact me on IM or email me =)

One of the things that made me stop eating meat or helped me too was I realized..if I eat meat, I'm just one big living trash dump of assimilated animal flesh. Being an omnivore is like taking a big ground pile of pork, beef, chicken, milk, cheese, eggs and making it into a human.

Now I feel so good knowing that the miracle that is a human body has been able to make me what I am out of all these nice crunchy or soft fruits, veggies, grains, beans and nuts I eat.

It's a very pure thing..and people wonder why vegans seem so religious/spiritual based on lifestyle and diet alone. Wellbeing and compassion are nearly synonymous..it's no wonder.

Fish was the last thing I gave up too. My doctor didn't notice any difference in my body for a whole year! He said your cells are less oblong than they use to be did you become a Vegetarian? he asked! I replied You Hit the Nail on the Head! Then he said huh? I realized he didn't know that expression.. I said then to him You're right on! So I say it may be a year before your free of animal foods as much as is humanly possible! We can't entirely be free of it cause fools fertilized the ground with manure from animals. It's just impossible to be completely free of animal food but 98% is probably possible.. don't forget we are 80% water so we really don't need as much protein as meat eaters think we need. We need certain enzymes that are in meat that are in fruits too! Fruits are best for us! Tomato is the #1 on my list it is highly acidic, pineapple is #2, lemon #3, fruits are more important than veggies. I know some people that don't like vegetable but like fruits they eat that and grains and cereals and they are healthy!

Answer 4

Yes, all the meats should be completely flushed out of your system. Congratulations on switching to a vegetarian lifestyle. Just a tip, eat plenty of beans (soy is very good) and yukon or russet potatos for vitamin B12. Many other vegtables have it but these potatos have the highest amount.

Answer 5

I also believe we are imperfect beings. I think I'm seeing a little irrationality in your thinking right now. You think that you might be showing your bias in your use of the word "mythological", and thus have given up all pretense of fair-mindedness? I, by becoming a Spirit-led Christian, have become a willing participant of eternity. I willfully seek to see God's word manifest. That is what a Christian is supposed to be: someone who wants to see God's word fulfilled instead of doing what the rest of the world does and fight against it.

Answer 6

You should look into "Colan cleansing" it will truly get the "animal" and "animals" out of your body-ie parasites and other nasty critters that call your body home.... As well as removing all the years of impacted fecal plaque that has built up over your life...You think you fell light and good now? It doesn't even compare to what you will fell like after a full cleansing... It's sound gross but do some research on it.. You will trip!

Answer 7

i would define this for myself as it is an intensely spiritual and personal question. im going to be a bit graphic. when your stools change colors, textures, and odor. when your body odor smells different, when your skin changes (for either bad or good). it takes me about one lunar cycle (28 days) to flush out toxins. but if you want to talk about mind body soul connection, they say that with memories, it takes 2 years to get over a loss. maybe it's the same with the body. but i have noticed biological transitions in one month.

Answer 8

Well... the flesh is gone, but if you're still eating eggs and dairy, you're not completely animal free.

But yes, there would be no more meat inside of you anymore.

Answer 9

its like quitting smoking.. the benefits take time, so does the detoxification effect.. but once free.. goodness.

If u eat meat again.. be prepared to have some digestion difficulties to start with, and then the rest is easy going. good luck!

Answer 10

Fish is really lean, so I think (only my opinion) that by now the fish is gone from your system. If it were beef, I think it would be a different story! I don't even know you, but I'm so happy and proud of you for deciding to go veg! That is such a great decision for your own health as well as the welfare of the animals! Good for you in doing your part with your own personal sustainability project! Yaay! :o)

Answer 11

Forget animal free, the question is how long before you are mercury free if you were eating tuna 3 times a week.

You probably can think better now.
