Can I lose weight and gain some benefits if a vegan diet?
Hi guys. Well, I'm a little chubby. Not necessarily overweight. I was thinking switching to a vegan diet, since I used to eat pasta and meat, so it does not help the situation. Also logging what you eat for 1 or 2 meals a day. I wondered also that the vegan diet help me lose some extra kilos as well?
A vegetarian diet is very healthy if you do well and also lost weight. Pasta without meat is like pasta, meat is rather a combination of fattening. You can find the various traps of a vegan diet in an Internet search for vegan + "health hazards".

becoming a vegan means giving up milk and dairy products such as butter and cheese. This a major change for people who are used to a European diet that historically has always used dairy produce.
But in many cultures dairy produce is not eaten at all or only rarely. A vegan diet is common in some non-Western societies. It is therefore entirely possible to eat a balanced vegan diet that does not include dairy produce.
The emphasis on dairy produce in the Western diet has produced an enormous industry to stock our supermarket shelves. The nature of this industry is perhaps one of the best reasons for becoming a vegan and cutting milk and dairy produce out of your diet.
What was once a treat for high days and holidays has become a daily staple. There are powerful commercial interests involved in encouraging us to eat more dairy produce. That change in our diet has had serious effects on health. The same changes can be seen in other cultures that are in the process of changing to a Western diet.
The demand for milk has created an intensive dairy industry in which cows are treated as units of production not living creatures. Dairy cows are selectively bred for the highest milk yield. They are impregnated every year so that they continue to produce milk.
Cows in intensive dairy units are treated with antibiotics and hormones. Some of them never set foot on grass. The old image of the placid dairy cow in a green field is a thing of the past.
Calves are no more than a by-product of the process of producing milk. They are taken from their mothers within weeks of their birth. Male calves are disposed of as uneconomic or are sent for veal production.
More humane farming systems are used on some farms. Vegetarians who wish to consume dairy produce should seek out milk produced on farms with high welfare standards.
But even if you can source good quality dairy produce from farms with high welfare standards you may wish to eliminiate dairy produce from your diet and become a vegan. A vegan diet is a realistic option and for many people a vegan diet is an ethical option.

Becoming Vegan (Paperback) $12.97 Veganism is by no means a new concept. The authors trace its roots back to 19th-century England and reveal that among better known early followers were George Bernard Shaw, industrialist Arnold Hills, graham cracker inventor Sylvester Graham, and the father of Louisa May Alcott, Bronson Alcott. For those who wish to follow these pioneers, BECOMING VEGAN provides a wealth of information on practical ways to convert, looking at nutritional needs and sources and creating vegan diets that cover individual needs i.e. infancy, childhood, pregnancy, nursing, and aging. Special attention is also given to weight issues (both overweight and underweight) and improving athletic performance. |
