Why Switch To A Vegan Diet?

There are many reasons why people make the switch to vegan food. In a lot of cases, it’s a mix of factors and if you are considering a vegan diet plan, you’ll likely have your own reasons.

Many switch to veganism to be kinder to animals, while others will do so to live more sustainably. Animal agriculture has a huge environmental impact, ranging from greenhouse gas emissions from the animals themselves, to increased deforestation to grow crops to feed the animals.

Some switch to vegan meals to feel healthier and more energised. Studies have found many health benefits of veganism, including reduced cholesterol and blood pressure.

Is A Vegan Diet Healthy?

A vegan diet is often seen as a healthy option because it contains more grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds than other diets.

It’s a common misconception that following a vegan diet will leave you lacking in essential nutrients, notably iron, calcium and vitamin B12. But with proper planning and clever substitutions, you can get everything you need from your diet.

There are many benefits to eating vegan meals. For example, they’re naturally lower in saturated fat compared to meat-based meals, which is linked to a greater risk of heart disease and higher cholesterol levels.

Starting a Vegan Diet
