Mei is interviewing Mohamini - her high school friend from Italy who grew up in India as a vegetarian but decided to become a vegan.

Being a vegan is not only an investment in your health, but in the well-being of nature, animals, and society. It is not about the meat and food and tastes - it is more about the industry and all the animal-based products that are very toxic to the environment.

Transitioning to a vegan diet sometimes is hard because of the lifestyle and stress, but the most important thing is to be flexible and you will find it doable if you put your mind to it. Mei and M have a lot of pieces of advice on how to become a vegan, so check this episode out and see why changing your diet might be the next best thing for you.
