You've got questions and we've got answers!
I also wrote a post about a vegan paleo diet . I can't recommend the links to articles at the bottom enough -- several link to articles by doctors and other nutrition experts and the dangers and fallacies of paleo.
Side note: Everyone I know on “paleo” cheats like crazy which makes me think the diet is not realistic -- I never cheat or feel the urge to following my healthy plant-based diet and lifestyle.. Perhaps because I’m actually satisfied and eating the way our bodies were intended to? Just a thought.
Q: I am vegan for three weeks and have had some serious bloating problems. I have a hard, stiff and bloated tummy each night. What’s happening?
A: I’m sorry you’re having bloating issues - that’s no fun. See my post on flatulence .
Keep in mind that you just altered your diet pretty significantly, so your body will need some time to adjust :) and there are supplements and things you can do to help alleviate the bloat.
