WHY I CHOOSE TO GO VEGAN

Why I Went Vegan for Better Health

Hey I am Niya, I would like to share with you my reason for going Full Vegan and all the benefits.

Choosing a lifestyle change, especially one as significant as adopting a vegan. Feeling tired all of the time, low energy and many other factors helped me make my decision 11 years ago. I'll explain the key reasons that influenced my choice and the benefits I've experienced since making this transition.

Understanding the Health Benefits of a Vegan Diet

Improved Heart Health

One of the most compelling reasons to go vegan is the potential for improved heart health. A vegan diet is typically rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes, all of which are known to lower the risk of heart disease. These foods are high in fiber and antioxidants, which help reduce cholesterol levels and improve overall cardiovascular health.

Weight Management

Switching to a vegan diet often leads to easier weight management. Plant-based foods are generally lower in calories and saturated fats compared to animal products. By focusing on nutrient-dense foods, I found that maintaining a healthy weight became more straightforward, without feeling deprived or constantly counting calories.

Reduced Risk of Chronic Diseases

Research suggests that a vegan diet can lower the risk of several chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, certain types of cancer, and hypertension. The emphasis on whole foods and the absence of processed meats and dairy can contribute to these health benefits. This motivated me to adopt a diet that supports long-term wellness and reduces the chance of illness.

Personal Health Improvements

Increased Energy Levels

After transitioning to a vegan diet, I noticed a significant increase in my energy levels. The abundance of vitamins and minerals found in plant-based foods, coupled with the reduction of heavy, processed foods, left me feeling more energetic and less fatigued throughout the day.

Better Digestion

A diet rich in fiber from fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can significantly improve digestion. I experienced less bloating and more regular digestive patterns, which contributed to an overall feeling of comfort and well-being.

Enhanced Mental Clarity

The elimination of heavy, animal-based foods and the introduction of a variety of nutrients helped me feel more alert and focused.

Conclusion

Going vegan has been a transformative journey for my health. The positive changes I've experienced, from improved heart health to increased energy levels, have reaffirmed my decision. Whether you decide to go full vegan or not even just trying more healthier options will have its benefits.
