What is the Difference Between Vegetarian and Vegan Diets?
Is a Vegetarian Diet Healthy?
We're always told to get our five-a-day and this is because fruit and vegetables provide us with the best nutrients and vitamins our bodies need to remain healthy. The many benefits of a vegetarian diet are just a testament of this.
Some vegetarians rely heavily on processed foods, Green Chef vegetarian recipe boxes help you cook fresh, delicious meals that will have you dodging these processed foods and keep your vegetarian diet as healthy as possible.
What Are The Benefits of a Vegetarian Diet?
A plant-based diet supplies you with all of the essential nutrients your body needs as well as numerous health benefits. Studies have shown that a predominantly plant-based diet may be a healthier way to eat, with fewer reported cases of obesity, heart disease and type 2 diabetes in vegetarians.
Vegetarians are also more likely to eat more than their five-a-day which help against age-related health conditions.
Not only are vegetarian diets great for your body, but they're great for the environment too. They use less natural resources and therefore cause less environmental damage.
How to Kickstart Your Vegetarian Diet
If you're just starting your vegetarian diet then it's good to do it in phases. Try cutting certain things at a time, such as red meat, and then a couple of weeks later stop eating poultry and so forth. But make sure you eat foods that are going to counterbalance the nutrients you were getting from these foods.
Be adventurous with your recipes as this will help you stick to your new diet. Include new ingredients you've never tried, or different flavours and see what you discover.
