Although the veganism movement has been around for a considerable amount of time, the meat-free, dairy-free diet has become an increasingly popular topic of interest after the pandemic in 2020. The once extremely controversial diet became a major consideration for many as the world was forced into lockdown and industries were called to a halt. Interestingly enough, what vegans were trying to promote for a very long time has now become headline-worthy news during the year 2020. Naturally, the health benefits promoted by the vegan diet are becoming a crucial area of interest for many, especially after coming to realize how truly unsustainable we were living prior to 2020. The global lockdown influenced all of us to slow down and explore these issues, and some of the ways we should be living have actually started to align with the diet and lifestyle highlighted by the vegan movement. So, what has drawn us to the creation of this read? Well, we aim to break the stigmas around what veganism is, the myths around the diet and lifestyle, and offer research, examples, tips, and tricks on understanding how truly beneficial the vegan diet is. We don't want to beat around the bush either and only provide information on the benefits of the diet; we also want to cover various issues that vegans face, from socializing to health requirements, etc. We wanted to create a realistic guide into starting the vegan journey as efficiently and effectively as possible. In this read, we explore a deeper understanding of the history of veganism and define it among other diets such as vegetarianism and the plant-based diet. Thereafter, we go on a journey of understanding the nutritional benefits of the diet compared to our recommended daily intake (RDI) of nutrients and then exploring which vegan foods are powerful sources of such nutrients. We aim to take you on a journey of wholeheartedly understanding veganism from a nutritional, health perspective, as well as in a social, environmental, and even political context. In doing so, we hope to offer you a wholesome outlook on the journey and help you to realize how truly realistic, beneficial, sustainable, and simply amazing this diet is.
