Woody Harrelson, the renowned actor known for his roles in films like “Natural Born Killers” and “The Hunger Games,” has been a vegan for over 30 years. His journey into veganism began in his early 20s when he was struggling with acne. A chance encounter on a bus with a girl who suggested he try a vegan diet changed the course of his life.
Harrelson has been vocal about the benefits of a vegan diet, not just for health but also for the environment and animal welfare. He credits his vegan diet for clearing up his acne and improving his overall health. In an interview, he said, “I was on a bus when I was about 24 and this girl saw me blow my nose – and I had acne all over my face. She told me I should try a vegan diet, and it really helped.”
Over the years, Harrelson has become a passionate advocate for veganism. He has narrated documentaries like “Dominion,” which exposes the harsh realities of animal agriculture. He has also written the foreword to “The Wicked Healthy Cookbook,” a vegan cookbook by chefs Chad and Derek Sarno.
In addition to his advocacy work, Harrelson has used his platform to raise awareness about the environmental impact of animal agriculture. He has spoken about the need to transition to a plant-based diet to combat climate change. In an interview with Men’s Journal, he said, “We’ve got a lot of corporate industrial agriculture and the way they do it now is extremely destructive given pesticide use and the destruction of soil.”
Harrelson’s vegan journey has also influenced his costars. Actress Sadie Sink, who worked with Harrelson in “The Glass Castle,” credits him with convincing her to switch to a vegan diet. In an interview with Glamour, she said, “He’s a very passionate vegan and his entire family is vegan as well, so by spending time with them, I was able to learn that a vegan lifestyle is totally doable and it’s not as hard as it may seem.”
Harrelson’s activism extends beyond veganism. He has been involved in various environmental causes, including the fight against deforestation and the promotion of renewable energy. He is also a supporter of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) and has participated in campaigns to raise awareness about animal cruelty.
In conclusion, Woody Harrelson’s vegan journey is a testament to the power of personal transformation and the impact one person can have on the world. His advocacy work and influence have helped to promote veganism and raise awareness about the environmental and ethical implications of our food choices.
