The number-one questions most people have when they consider a plant-based diet are about nutrition: Where do I get my protein? What about calcium? Do I need to take supplements?
All these questions are understandable, simply because most of us grew up eating meat, so we think we know what our plate is supposed to look like. To dive into plant-based eating means learning to re-create that plate. The recipes in this book will help you do so while also producing nutritionally balanced dishes. You'll also find nutritional information for each recipe to help you craft the balanced diet you need.
As it turns out, eating plant-based is one of the healthiest diets in the world. Healthy vegan diets include plenty of fresh products, whole grains, legumes, and healthy fats such as seeds and nuts. They are abundant with antioxidants, minerals, vitamins, and dietary fiber.
Current scientific research pointed out that higher consumption of plant-based foods is associated with a lower risk of mortality from cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and obesity. Vegan eating plans often rely heavily on healthy staples, avoiding animal products that are loaded with antibiotics, additives, and hormones.
Plus, consuming a higher proportion of essential amino acids with animal protein can be damaging to human health. Since animal products contain much more fat than plant-based foods, it's not a shocker that studies have shown that meat-eaters have nine times the obesity rate of vegans.
