Veganism: A philosophy and way of living.
Being Veganism this is a very different way of living for these kinds of people
who decided to do it for a month and try to see how they feel afterwards. Of how
beneficial it can be to be a vegan. As this is a widely different way of living by
eating vegetarian instead of meat no and again, than more than you think around
vegans. As I thought that this first sentence was a bit to complex to understand
to most of audience of who I would be directing it at. So I tried to reword the
sentence by making it easier to read. As this was the start of the sentence this
goes into the introduction this talks more about what it is talking about.
Exploitation of animals for food, clothing, testing and entertainment. Veganuary
is a global campaign that launched in January 2014 to help encourage people to
try vegan for January. With a success of 3,200 people ready to commit in January
2014, these campaigns try to make people help to become vegans to become
much healthier for them as this helps to raise awareness of this lifestyle.
Veganism not only helps to reduce the suffering of animals and help the planet
but also improves personal health. Due to the fact vegans don’t eat animals or
their products, they must find the essential nutrients they need from plant based
sources, vegan alternatives and fortified foods. This means that vegans eat a lot
more fruits and vegetables than omnivores. Vegans get the most amounts of
nutrients they can from their food and are keen to make sure they know how to
get everything they need such as iron. However, vitamin B12 is a vitamin that
can be hard for vegans to obtain as it is found in meat, which is created by
bacteria but is also added to fortified foods such as breakfast cereals. A
supplement of B12 is the easiest way to make sure you do not lack it in your diet.
Not only do vegans tend to be more well informed of what their body needs and
what their food contains but avoiding meat and animal products can help to
virtually eliminate the most severe diseases such as cardiovascular disease,
obesity, type 2 diabetes, diverticulosis and e.coli infections. A vegan diet can be
more beneficial to women as PMS symptoms become less intense or disappear
altogether. This is due to the elimination of dairy from their diet.
Veganism helps the environment and helps to stop excess greenhouse gases.
Over 70 billion land animals such as cows, pigs and chickens are specifically
bred, farmed and killed for food every year. This does not include sea creatures
and other animals bred for fur and skin trades. The meat industry has a big
impact on the environment and how use our natural resources. 70% of the fresh
water produced is used for the meat industry and takes 2500 gallons of water for
1 pound of beef. 70% of the worlds grain harvest is fed to livestock while the
other 30% is used for the entire worlds population.
