    Why Eat a Vegan Diet?

    Many people choose a vegetarian diet for various reasons, some include it being a protest not to eat animals, others it is a choice to go strictly plant food for the health benefits. A vegan diet helps to control and maybe even prevent certain health conditions like cardiovascular disease, colon cancer, diabetes, diverticular disease, high blood pressure, and prostate cancer. Certainly, the vegan diet is highly nutritious.

    There are varying degrees of vegetarianism. Some vegetarians will eat some foods from animals such as diary and eggs and even fish. Those are not who this cookbook is intended for. This cookbook is for vegans. Vegans consume only plant foods, by eating plants that contain all the necessary ingredients to strengthen the immune system. Vegans, if they eat well-rounded foods, live very healthy lifestyles. Plant based foods provide all that is needed to keep the immune system healthy and strong not to mention that a vegan diet helps people to maintain their optimum weight. It is rare for a vegan to have much of a weight issue if any. Eating the vegan diet helps to lose weight if weight is an issue.

    By eating a diet of plant foods -- fruits and vegetables and herbs -- the nutrients called phytochemicals work in the body and with the immune system in fighting off the above named health issues. We know that high fiber diets are among the best for helping to prevent cancers, cardiovascular disease, and even body fat. Plant foods are the only foods that contain the fiber needed to maintain good health. Animal foods do not contain fiber and in fact contains fat that is harmful to the health.

    Another healthy benefit to a vegan diet is the ability to fight high cholesterol. This is because plant foods do not contain cholesterol, so if a person is apt to having the genetic disposition to a high cholesterol count, then a vegan diet is the answer for them. Plant foods do not contain a high amount of saturated fats like those that animal foods do. Take a look at the weight of the general population then a look at their diets and see if you can see a correlation to animal foods and obesity along with ill health issues like heart disease. Certain plants do contain a high level of fat, but this is a good fat. Good fats come from nuts and olives and are actually healthy to consume in moderation.

    Some of the opponents to the vegan diet claim that vegans become anemic due to the lack of iron in their diet. This is far from true because certain plants do contain iron. The iron in these plants is a safer form than those found in organ meat. This plant-produced iron keeps the body from overdosing on iron and is much safer to consume. Fruits, vegetables, and herbs contain high levels of nutrients like anti-oxidants, vitamins, and minerals, which help to strengthen the immune system.

    Becoming a Vegan for Environmental Reasons

    The planet is filled with land that produces a vast amount of animal food. This land and the environment are wasted with the care of these animals. The truth is it takes a lot more land mass to grow and produce
