🥕 新的一年，開始健康生活 🥕
吃素不等於健康。事實上，吃素只是表示你「不吃什麼」，卻沒說「吃什麼」。
舉例，如果素食者吃白米飯配仿葷素肉，加上油膩的炸杏鮑菇和過鹹的青菜，然後向非素食者宣傳「吃素健康」，其實我認為是沒有說服力的。或許跟吃炸雞比起來算健康，但和真正健康的全食物蔬食比起來，卻差遠了。
我吃素是為了動物，一開始根本不在意健康。必須承認，幾年來我其實心裡也總認為他人要是為了健康而吃素，就是動機不夠純淨。
但現在的我改觀了。我相信人是自然的一部份，是地球的延伸，而地球的狀態取決於我們自身的健康。如果我們因為無知或不夠愛自己而導致身心不健全，要怎麼樣創造出健康的人與人、人與自然的關係呢？
而要開始健康生活，也需要有工具輔助。今天跟大家介紹我超推的app🥦「Dr. Greger's Daily Dozen」🥦 你可以在app store裡搜尋（Android有中文版，iOS只有英文版但單詞不難，適合想練英文的朋友）。
這個食品清單包括了經科學證實人每天要吃的食物以及份量，例如一份十字花科蔬菜、一份漿果、三份其他水果、三份全穀物等。每吃了一份就可以在旁邊打勾。另外還有每天要補充的維生素B12和D（如果無法攝取足夠陽光的話）。
過去一年半來我會用這個app來檢視自己每天吃得好不好，也讓一天的飲食規劃變得更容易。新的一年，開始健康生活吧！

🥕 Starting A Healthy Life in 2019 🥕
Eating vegan doesn't mean eating healthy. It only says what you don't eat, not what you eat.
For example, I wouldn't be convinced if I were a meat-eater, seeing a vegan eating white rice with mock meat, deep-fried mushrooms and salty vegetables and promoting that diet as "healthy." Yeah, maybe healthier than fried chicken, but can't compare to whole food plant-based foods.
I went vegan for animals and never cared about health until recently when I changed my views. I believe we are part of nature, and our physical and psychological wellbeing affects the planet greatly. How can we create healthy relationships with other living beings and nature unless we ourselves are healthy?
To start a healthy life, you need some tools. "Dr. Greger's Daily Dozen" is a great app to have. It shows you how many portions of food under each category you need to eat daily (fruits, vegetables, whole grains, etc.), and it's almost like a game you can play.
I've been using it for the past 1.5 years, and it makes meal planning so much easier. Highly recommended!
