What Is This Vegan Craziness: Reasons Why Going Vegan Isn’t So Bad

There are a lot of myths and misunderstandings about what it actually means to be a vegan and what it's like to eat vegan in a cafe in Brighton. The veganism philosophy can spread beyond the plate ("I won't eat anything that has a bladder or a mother") to not wearing animal products (leather, suede, fur, wool, silk, feathers), and avoiding products with animal ingredients or testing ("cruelty-free" labels).

Even eating vegan part-time can benefit your health

Vegans and those who avoid animal products (even part of the day, or part of the week) often have

low rates of obesity, and on average weigh 5 to 20 percent less than meat eaters. Vegetarian diets on the whole are linked to lower BMIs, reduced risk of type II diabetes and lower incidents of cardiovascular disease. Additionally, increased consumption of fruits and vegetables lower rates of certain cancers, especially colon cancer.

You'll get enough protein from plants

According to traditional dietary standards, a 140-pound woman should have 50 grams of protein a day, and for a vegan that might come from a cup each of cooked spinach (5 grams), lentils (18 grams), and tempeh (a soy product with 41 grams). (You can find more suggestions from the Vegetarian Resource Group.)

In fact, large-scale research like The China Study have revealed that too much protein, namely animal protein, is harmful for your health. Other research shows that excess protein in your body can strain your kidneys or cling as fat.

Plenty of grocery staples are vegan and Cafes in Brighton

PETA's comprehensive list helps identify what popular supermarket foods are vegan, including dark chocolate, Oreos (reformulated from a lard-based recipe), Twizzlers, Betty Crocker Bac-o's Bacon Flavor Bits and Kraft Taco Bell Taco Dinner. Many tasty vegan chocolate are served in Cafes in Brighton these days.

Change your plate, change the world

Nearly 20 percent of man-made pollution comes from the meat production, putting factory farming ahead of conveyance in contributing to the greenhouse effect. What's more, it takes about 40 calories of fossil-fuel energy to create every one calorie of feed-lot beef in the U.S. (compared to 2.2 calories of energy needed to create plant.
