How veganism changes your body from day one

The first thing that someone starting a vegan diet might notice is an energy boost with the removal of the processed meat that is found in many omnivorous diets.

SOPHIE MEDLIN: ‘A 2016 Roy Morgan poll found 2.1 million Australians (11.2 per cent of the population) followed a vegetarian diet, up from 1.7 million (or 9.7 per cent) in 2012. Where this motivation stems from is varied, but includes concerns about animal welfare, worries about the environment and religious reasons.
