Nadine Lustre talked about being a vegan
Actress Nadine Lustre shared that her choice to have a vegan lifestyle was a process and did not just happen overnight.
Nadine is one of the female celebrities in the Philippines who is being admired for her fit figure. The actress is fond of sharing her beach photos that flaunt her figure. When it comes to her lifestyle, the actress had a big transition in her life.
In a recent interview, based on the article in PEP, the actress had an awareness of how animals are being treated.
Nadine Lustre shared that when she decided to have a plant-based diet, she realized how leathers were made. Then, her awareness extended to other aspects of life like food, fashion, and having pets.
“So, that’s when I started realizing na, ‘Okay, if I really want to change, or if I really care about the animals, it has to kind of ripple to everything that I do,’ so it involves fashion as well,” the actress said.
Nadine clarified that this transition did not come in just a snap of fingers. She started having a vegan diet in August 2022. A year later, her lifestyle followed.
“I switched to a plant-based diet in August 2022. Tapos, parang mga 2023, everything just started to follow na lang. I mean, it’s not an overnight thing, you know? It can take months, years,” she shared.
She also shared that the transition to a vegan lifestyle is not as scary as other people perceived it to be. Nadine said that the only struggle that she experienced was thinking about the food that she would include in her diet.
The first few weeks were difficult for her because she was still finding stores or outlets where to get her food. It was also a challenge for her when she cooks because she is always out and about and she had to prepare her meal.
Nadine Lustre also shared that she respects other people’s beliefs and she does not want to force others to follow her lifestyle. However, whenever people ask her why she is vegan, she tells them her reason and educates them as much as possible.
