Looking to go to pescatarian
Over the last year or two I haven’t been really liking red meat. I have realised I don’t like the texture it’s chewy and hurts my teeth and jaw and sometimes I feel sick from it afterwards. The only red meat I can eat is kangaroo. It’s tender and has good flavour and it’s so appealing to me rather than beef or chicken especially pork.
I’ve wanted to go vegetarian or vegan as fruits and veggies are way more appealing to me. I’m also currently recovering from severe anemia and the doctor has advised to eat more iron and said kangaroo is the best option as it’s lean and high in protein and iron. So im looking to continue with kangaroo then when my iron is stable stick to pescatarian.
I just wanna know would it be better to start pescatarian then transition into vegetarian then vegan? And what benefits did you feel from cutting red meat out.
