ALL ABOUT VEGAN
Veganism is a lifestyle and dietary choice that seeks to avoid the use of animal products for ethical, environmental, and health reasons. Vegans abstain from consuming animal-derived foods and products, as well as avoiding their use in other aspects of life, such as clothing or personal care items.
Vegan foods are plant-based foods that do not contain any animal-derived ingredients. These foods are typically rich in fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Vegans rely on these ingredients to create a varied and nutritious diet that meets their dietary needs.
