It was like the shot heard round the world when Oprah Winfrey announced that she was going vegan for 21 days. Her inspiration came from reading “Quantum Wellness” by Kathy Freston. Oprah says, “How can you say you’re trying to spiritually evolve without even a thought about what happens to the animal’s whose lives are sacrificed in the name of gluttony?”
The concept is part of a 21 day cleanse to “makeover your insides”. Oprah’s so excited about this that she’s already taken to her blog to talk about day one. She says,
“Wow, wow, wow! I never imagined meatless meals could be so satisfying. I had been focused on what I had to give up—sugar, gluten, alcohol, meat, chicken, fish, eggs, cheese. “What’s left?” I thought. Apparently a lot. I can honestly say every meal was a surprise and a delight, beginning with breakfast—strawberry rhubarb wheat-free crepes”
I’m very excited about this new transition for Oprah and am excited to see how her program progresses along. Here at HealthyHollywood, we’ll be watching closely and bringing you the latest info from Oprah’s journey.
