Basics
Can you go vegan gradually?
Short answer
Yes. Most people do not switch overnight. A common path: meat first, then dairy and eggs, then honey, labels and clothes.
Going gradually does not cancel the goal. The change sticks when you already have 3–4 meals you like and a coffee-milk swap that works.
Do not wait for a perfect moment. Swapping one daily meal to plants for a month beats one strict week and a rebound.
