Anick and Her Journey with Plant-Based Nutrition
What motivated you to become a dietitian?
Nutrition is a young, evolving science with constantly new avenues to explore and questions to answer. Working in health sciences has always interested me, particularly the fundamental role that nutrition plays in preventing diseases of all kinds. This conviction has led me to believe that I can contribute to helping people to the best of my ability.
When did you become plant-based?
The moment I completed my nutrition degree (2018), my desire to exclusively follow a plant-based diet was already well underway. However, I made the decision to commit 100% at an opportune time when I felt confident that I could successfully change my diet for the better. I have never regretted this choice and am very proud of having made it.
Why are you plant-based?
My initial motivation for transitioning to a plant-based diet was for our fellow animals. After 4 years, I realize that adopting a plant-based lifestyle is not merely a transition or a process to start eating differently. It is a journey where you get to learn about so much more than you thought you’d learn. I am now eating plant-based and adopting a fully vegan lifestyle as this deepens and improves my understanding of compassion toward our fellow animals, our planet, and ourselves and others.
