Vegan Facts and Nutrition
Living the life of a vegan is a good thing, however it does not come without perils. Many of the perils are in the form of misconception: all vegans are granola-crunchers who live in the middle of the woods with a lot of pets(and perhaps a farm). But that could not be further from the truth. Most vegans are regular people who just want to improve their health and the environment. And while it can be a little bit hard to do, the end result is worthwhile. Here are some more fascinating vegan facts about vegan nutrition and veganism in general.
Many of Hollywood’s most elite are vegans, including Alicia Silverstone, Tobey Maquire, Emily Deschanel and Natalie Portman.
Stella McCartney(daughter of former Beatle Paul McCartney) is a fashion designer with a conscience. You won’t find leather or fur in her designs which are worn by many actresses including Kate Hudson.
Vegetarian cyclists were not allowed to compete in events until the 1900s simply because they were believed to have an unfair advantage delivered by their vegan nutrition.
Despite the fact that vegans often limit their diet to exclude animal products and byproducts, they do eat a wide range of tasty and healthy foods that you might not otherwise try if you weren’t vegan, and this is just one of the many advantages of vegan nutrition.
Being green is never easy, but its sure helps once you know the vegan facts and resources.
