Health, Fitness and Nutrition
We all become vegan for different reasons: the environment, our health, animal rights.
Whatever drives us to change our diet and lifestyle, we are all forced to become much more conscious of our food choices to maintain optimal nutrition and a vegan diet. Checking nutrition labels and ingredients, making sure you’re getting the protein everyone keeps asking you about, looking for that pesky milk powder in the potato chips. Once we learn about how our food choices impact our environment and the beautiful creatures of our planet, we must also become more critical about how our food impacts our bodies.
Balanced Veganism
Sometimes we slack on getting everything we need from our diet alone, and that’s where supplements can help us continue to thrive. When we make conscious food choices, use food as fuel, and choose balance, we can thrive as the compassionate activists we are with lots of animals to save and lots of work to be done.
