Bill Clinton is now Vegan?

Chelsea Clinton reportedly asked her father, former President Bill Clinton, to shed some pounds before her wedding. After this request President Clinton overhauled his diet and essentially went vegan.

In an interview with CNN, Clinton said he eats mostly a plant-based diet. The 24 pound weight loss is what he calls an added bonus, as he made the dietary changes for his heart.

"I did all this research, and I saw that 82 percent of the people since 1986 who have gone on a plant-base, no dairy, no meat of any kind, no chicken, no turkey — I eat very little fish, once in a while I'll have a little fish not often — If you can do it, 82 percent of people have begun to heal themselves. The arterial blockage breaks up."

Citing the China Study as part of his personal research, the former president is offering up his dietary change as part of the ongoing study on this matter and to see if a plant-based diet can help clean out his heart.

We think it is great the President is choosing health foods over his usual burgers, however we do think that a vegan diet is extreme. We also think that Clinton does not look well. What are your thoughts? Does the President look good to you? What do you think about a vegan diet? Extreme or cleansing?
