So You Want to Be a Vegetarian?: A Step-by-step Guide to a Plant-Based Diet

So You Want to Be a Vegetarian?: A Step-by-step Guide to a Plant-Based Diet was written with the intentions of guiding individuals into vegetarianism. With the announcement by the World Health Organization in 2015 on processed meat and its link to cancer, the horrific conditions animals face as a result of industry farming, and the need for a better approach to health and wellness overall, many men and women are seeking a new way of living. So You Want to Be a Vegetarian? contains: a week-by-week guide to eliminating meat, a five-day meal plan with recipes, a list of vegetarian cookbooks, smoothie recipes, and personal wisdom from the author’s experience with a plant-based diet. The issue that plagues most individuals who are looking to convert to a plant-based diet is that they simply don’t know where to begin—well, here is the answer!

The author behind So You Want to Be a Vegetarian?: A Step-by-step Guide to a Plant-Based Diet, Jordan A. DeLoach, is a graduate of Tennessee State University with a degree in Health Sciences. Having gone through the United States Army's Health Care Specialist course receiving credentials as a certified Emergency Medical Technician, later becoming a certified personal trainer, and eventually starting his own health and wellness company: M.B.S. Health & Wellness LLC, the author has a rounded track record in the realm of health. Growing up in Detroit, MI and witnessing the lack of access to nutritious food, yet an abundance of fast-food restaurants/liquor stores, dilapidated neighborhoods, condemned schools, and the enormous amount of emotional and psychological stress, illness is something he has seen all too often. With his mother experiencing thyroid cancer and later undergoing brain surgery to remove a tumor, to his father having open-heart surgery shortly after, a time for change was (is) much needed in our approach to health! The author made the transition and commitment to a plant-based diet nearly five years ago and is committed to helping others reach their nutritional, physical, and spiritual goals.
