Gregory and Kaitlyn Lang are trading their childhoods for a chance at

adulthood.

The pair plans to forgo all temptation — meat, dairy, bread — for the

Greg, 18, will make the trip to Hippocrates Health Institute in West

will adopt Hippocrates’ raw vegan eating program in hopes of never

needing to fight again.
