If it's only for health reasons, I'd suggest you just eat way less meat an more veggies. You can also go vegetarian, but you'd get yourself in trouble with family and friends meetings where food will most likely have meat as the main ingredient (I suppose=.

That said, unless you have moral reasons to go vegan, don't do it. You'll prolly hate it. It's a much harder switch from ovo-lacto-vegetarianism (what most people can vegetarianism). There's also a lot of research you'd have to do and go to a nutritionist (with current day and updated knowledge, hopefully) just to make sure you don't miss out on any nutrient.

I've been a vegan for 4 years now. Started and still am for moral reasons. I am very healthy, but prolly because I play a lot of sports. It's worth it for me, I still get to eat and taste delicious meals and with a lot more variety. But I reckon I'd still eat animal products if I didn't believe in the vegan philosophy. Just know that after a few months, putting your will to the test, it stops being a "sacrifice" and you got used to it, you'll actually have more curiosity in trying rare fruits and veggies and even get into cooking (that's what happened to me at least). It's pretty effortless being vegan for me, at this point.

Veganism isn't a diet tho, it's a philosophy that follows an strict vegetarian diet, among other things.
