Vivistic
food rules
As already can be derived
from the homepage of this website, practising
Vivism leads to the following five main rules in the field of nutrition.
I) Nothing, derived from animals, is eaten or drunk.

II) Plants aren't eaten either.

III) Food, that naturally only grows in another climate, is consumed as little as possible.

IV) What is eaten indeed, isn't heated in any way.

V) As far as possible, only organic food is eaten.

A clother look at these five principles will be taken as soon as possible.
In the mean time it may be interesting, to pay attention to the question, how one can become a vegetarian, veganarian, fruitarian, or vivitarian (follower of the vivistic diet), in case one isn't yet.
How to become a
vegetarian, veganarian, fruitarian, or vivitarian?
One of the most important conditions in this context is graduality. Otherwise one might succeed for a short time, but fall back later on.
Not to big, longlasting steps are supposed to be the best guarantee for succes.
The first thing to do, is choose a special day, to begin.
Then one starts practising the vegetarian diet (or one of the others) for one day per week; (allways the same one, for instance monday).
Depending on age and other circumstances, one does this for a period of one year, one half of a year, or (when one is still very young and/or feels, it will surely work), eventually three months. But a year allways does.
When the first period is passed, the step to two-days-per-week is made. No later, but no sooner either.
And so on.
Like that, it can take up to seven years, to become a hundred (or so) percent vegetarian, veganarian, fruitarian, or vivitarian, but in this way one has enough of time, to find out, how the 'gaps' in ones usual feedingpatterns, that are a consequence of the change, can be filled up at best.
In this way the change is slow, but sure and definite !
