Beskrivelse
Vegan eating does not automatically mean malnutrition, even if many cannot quite imagine how one can meet all the needs of the body with only plant-based food. On the contrary: According to various studies, vegan nutrition has various advantages, for example the risk of developing dementia and Alzheimer's is lower.
Civilization diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes and high blood pressure are also less common in people who eat vegan.
As a vegan diet generally low in fat, they often feel more active and fitter because the digestion of fat makes you tired.
Meat consumption also has a negative impact on the climate, for example through the methane that cattle emit during digestion.
Since the animals are often fed with soy, rainforests are cut down for cultivation, which are important CO2 stores. But: Meat substitutes for the vegan diet are also often made from soy. If you pay attention to your carbon footprint, you should cover your protein requirements with nuts and pulses.
