Vegans eliminate not only meat, but also other animal products like dairy and eggs from their diets.
In addition to helping people lose weight, eating a vegan diet offers a range of other health
benefits. For instance, studies show that vegan eating habits promote heart health and protect
against type 2 diabetes. The health benefits come from eliminating high-fat, high-cholesterol foods
and increasing consumption of nutrients.

For example, instead of eating burgers with cheese and bacon or pasta loaded with cream sauce,
vegans eat more healthful options, such as whole grains, fruits, vegetables, beans, peas, nuts, and
seeds. These foods are not only packed with nutrients such as potassium, magnesium, folate, and
vitamins A, C, and E, but also fiber for your digestive system and a range of antioxidants for your
overall health.
