Plant-based diets are increasingly popular for health and environmental reasons. Benefits include lower risk of heart disease, improved weight management, and better gut health.
Tip for transitioning: start by adding more vegetables, legumes, and whole grains to your meals. Experiment with plant-based protein sources like tofu, tempeh, and quinoa. Gradually reduce meat and animal products.
Ensure adequate intake of vitamin B12, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids through fortified foods or supplements, if necessary, to maintain balanced nutrition.
