Jillian Michaels Goes Almost Vegetarian To Go Green
Written by Vegetarian Star on Thursday, June 18th, 2009 in Environment-Eco-Green, Reality TV.
Jillian Michaels applies a no frills, tough talking attitude to contestants on The Biggest Loser to get them to lose fat and gain health.
She’s applying that same stringent method to do her part in cleaning up the environment, advocating green living for a better body and has eliminated all animal products except certain types of fish from her diet.
From an interview with treehugger.com:
“I have gone off the deep end on this. I find that when one has the knowledge and the means they have a responsibility to make the ethical choice. With regard to my diet, I always go organic. I shop at local farmers’ markets whenever possible. I have given up all animal products except for fish that has been ethically fished like ocean caught salmon, farmed arctic char, farmed trout, pacific cod, tilapia, crab, shrimp, and farmed oysters. I use all natural beauty products like Olive Oil, brown sugar for scrubs, avocado and ethical organic brands. My cleaning products are all green – and got rid of paper towels almost entirely and use rags instead. I use a Kangen water filter for drinking water and put in stainless steel canteens- never bottled water.”
While we love the fact that Jillian’s reduced her animal consumption dramatically, we’d love to see her kick butt all the way and be completely veg.
Hey, Jillian, why not team up with another pescetarian and do a weekly weigh in-the one with the least amount of fish on the plate wins!
