Vegetarian Star

Hilary Swank

Hilary Swank joins Jeremy Piven in the group of fishing eating vegetarian celebrities who came down with a case of mercury poisoning.

Swank said for her role in “Million Dollar Baby,” she increased her consumption of seafood for more protein to put on weight and paid severely.

“I put on 19 pounds of muscle: I was 29, I was a vegetarian and suddenly I was eating so much fish that I got elevated mercury problems,” Swank was quoted as saying.

Hilary Swank is feeling a bit guilty because she feel she has to eat meat to stay healthy.

The actress abandoned her vegetarian diet a few years ago because she was losing weight.

She told Marie Claire magazine, “I just started withering away. I wasn’t getting enough vitamins or protein. (It was) very emotional.”

“I sat over my plate and cried. I really had to work through it. It still makes me emotional. I don’t know if you have ever looked into a cow’s eye, but it is so soulful. So I don’t like it – but it’s something I have to do.”

Boo hoo. (Just kidding, we really are sympathetic. A little.)

However, with a bank account like Hilary’s this Million Dollar Baby actress should have no problem investing in some one on one diet counseling and expertise and even hire her own personal chef to ensure she gets the high protein plant based nutrition she needs.

Beans, tofu, faux meats, whole grain pastas, even veg powder protein supplements…the list is endless.

Not to mention the successful triathletes that sustain themselves on not only a vegetarian, but vegan diet.

Hilary’s wasting away was probably due to the fact she wasn’t eating enough food-not eating vegetarian food.

Maybe some cow will look her in the eye-and then curse at her so she’ll wake up and realize there are other options.
