Summary:
Vegans (total vegetarians): Do not eat meat, poultry, fish, or any products derived from
animals, including eggs, dairy products, and gelatin.
Lacto-ovo vegetarians: Do not eat meat, poultry, or fish, but do eat eggs and dairy products.
Lacto vegetarians: Eat no meat, poultry, fish, or eggs, but do consume dairy products.
Ovo vegetarians: Eat no meat, poultry, fish, or dairy products, but do eat eggs.
Partial vegetarians: Avoid meat but may eat fish (pescatarian) or poultry (pollo-vegetarian).
Sometimes people start off with becoming partial vegetarians, and then working your way up to full veggie, or vegan. LIke we said before, pick the one that works best for you and your personal choices.
Now, on to some great benefits of becoming a vegetarian.
1 - It’s just better for you: The fact that you’re choosing foods that are automatically less processed, and contain fewer chemicals means you’re being kinder to your body. We’re told from a very young age to eat our veggies, and by introducing them more into your diet, you’ll be giving you whole system the rush of vitamins and minerals it craves.

2 - Lowers your Cholesterol. Cholesterol only comes from consuming animal products, and some dairy. If you’re not eating any meat or full fat dairy products then you’re cutting out your cholesterol intake completely. HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL says having lower cholesterol has been shown to give you a longer life, and can reduce the risk of many chronic illnesses.

3 - Reduces the risk of diabetes. Because you’ll be eating things that are more natural, and less processed (like hot dogs) you’re likely to have lower blood sugar, reducing your risk of diabetes. Keep in mind, regular exercise is really important as well, but a plant-based diet can really make a difference.

4 - A healthy glow. Normally when people say you’re glowing it’s in reference to pregnancy. However, a vegetarian diet can help your skin appear more hydrated. Things like raw veggies that are water based will naturally put more water into your system. Also vegetables are packed with antioxidants that help fight off disease. The healthier you are inside, the more it’ll show on the outside.

5 - It’s good for your gut. You’ve probably heard the phrase “add more fiber” before. That’s because fiber keeps us regular, and is necessary for proper digestive health. Guess what has lots of fiber? Seeds! According to HEALTH LINE Chia seeds are one of the best sources of fiber on the planet! They also contain magnesium, phosphorus and calcium for an added benefit. Popcorn is also a great source of fiber. Not the stuff you buy at the movies, unfortunately that treat is usually dripping with butter and salt. We mean the kind you make at home, free of any extras. It’s a wonderful, quick and easy snack for a veggie.

This video defines veganism and explores the benefits and pitfalls of following a vegan diet. This video explores the effectiveness of vegan diet and the related health results. We also interview a vegan, Aïda Retta, of the Vegans of UBC club in order to get their first-hand experience of following the vegan diet and to dispel any myths associated with veganism.

Stay AWAY from processed foods.

The reason they’re so expensive is because you’re buying for convenience.

It’s pre-made, and all you have to do is heat it up.

To minimize your price, focus on whole foods. Things like:

👀 Black beans:

This is a GREAT source of protein and per block it’s only $2.48.

👀 Tempeh is also a great option:

A beginner's guide to going vegan, in 5 simple steps.

Thinking about skipping out on meat and dairy? Going vegan is becoming increasingly more common, but is it actually good for you?

What happens to your body when you go vegan?

Thinking of making the jump to a vegan diet? You’re not alone.

In your first few weeks, you may feel especially tired. Without meat, vegans often have a hard time getting enough vitamin B12 and iron, which helps make red blood cells and transport oxygen throughout the body. But it’s nothing a supplement or handful of nuts can’t fix.

You may also discover that foods don’t taste the way they used to. That’s because your zinc levels have taken a hit, affecting your overall sense of taste and smell.

On the plus side, expect to lose some weight right away! After switching, new vegans lost an average of 10 pounds over a 10 month period. Plus, a 2009 study found that average BMI was lower for vegans than all other diets.

Another benefit that you may experience is a healthy decrease in cholesterol, blood pressure, and heart disease risk. In 1999, a study showed that vegans were 24% less likely to have clogged arteries from saturated fat and cholesterol.

While your arteries are better off, your bones may not be. If you’re like most Americans who get their daily calcium from dairy products, you may see a dip in calcium levels.

But you can combat this simply by boosting your intake of kale, broccoli, and other leafy greens. Plus, cutting out dairy might make you more … regular. 60% of humans don’t have the enzyme to properly digest lactose in dairy. The result is cramping, bloating, and even diarrhea. Swapping dairy with high fiber veggies will make bathroom trips a lot more productive.

Like any diet, veganism has its pros and cons. Be sure to research and see which diet is best for you.

Panelists: Arielle Crawford, Gene Baur, Jodi Monelle & Liz Dee

From the earth’s tallest peaks to the ocean floor, no part of the world is spared of climate change. Right now we are facing a disaster of global scale, our greatest threat in thousands of years - climate change. In an effort to inspire change, we sat down with experts who have built sustainable organizations and are making revolutionary efforts to combat climate change by doing everyday activities in a more sustainable way. Collectively, we can make a world of difference.

About the Panelists:

Arielle Crawford -- is the founder and designer of ARIELLE, a sustainable apparel label committed to regenerative materials, fair-trade labor, supply chain integrity and consumer education. Her clean and timeless aesthetic encourages a “less, but better” approach to fashion, reflecting both legacy craftsmanship and modern versatility. She draws upon her resourceful upbringing in West Texas, her experience in the NYC fashion industry, her studies with indigenous communities in South America, and low-footprint living for the
inspiration of her mission-driven brand.

Gene Baur -- has been hailed as “the conscience of the food movement” by Time magazine. Since the mid-1980s, he has traveled extensively, campaigning to raise awareness about factory farming and the urgent need to fix our broken food system. His most important achievements include winning the first-ever cruelty conviction at a U.S. stockyard and introducing the first U.S. laws to prohibit cruel farming confinement methods in Florida, Arizona, and California. His efforts have been covered by top news organizations, including The New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Chicago Tribune, and The Wall Street Journal. Gene has published two bestsellers, Farm Sanctuary: "Changing Hearts and Minds About Animals and Food" and Living the Farm Sanctuary Life (Rodale, 2015), which he co-authored with Forks Over Knives author Gene Stone.

Avoiding high-emission foods can have a bigger climate impact than any other consumption change.

Our consumption habits emit billions of tons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Our diets account for one-fourth of those emissions.

The food we eat emits so many greenhouse emissions because of the land it takes to grow it, but it also has something to do with biology. This video explains why the production of some foods emit more than others, and which foods to avoid to be a more climate-conscious consumer.

United Nations - Statement by Mr. Leonardo DiCaprio, UN Messenger of Peace with a special focus on climate change, at the opening of the Climate Summit 2014.

Animal food production is a major factor in the acceleration of climate change, responsible for over 18% of greenhouse gas emissions – more than all modes of transport combined – while animal agriculture is responsible for 91% of destruction in the Amazon.

D-Fuse proposes an exploration of our planet’s fragility and the effects of man-made climate change, taking inspiration from Charles and Ray Eames’ film, Powers of Ten and the Relative Size of Things in the Universe, which illustrates the cosmos as an arena of continuity and change, using the system of exponential powers to visualize the importance of scale. Powers of Vegan adapts this concept to highlight the disastrous impact of humanity’s energy, water usage and food production models. Key to doing so is the creation of 360-video content offering viewers a fully immersive VR experience at each stage of a fantastic voyage... ...A close-up of a cow eating grass that pulls back to first reveal the extent of deforestation across the Amazon Rainforest, then our planet as a vulnerable speck within the universe; the destructiveness and insignificance of mankind is, hence, made painfully clear, suggesting that, unless we become better stewards of the Earth, its resources will soon be depleted, forcing us to seek a new stellar home.

Contining this journey at a 10-to-the-tenth metres per second, the audience returns from deep space to Earth, homing in on the cow again, entering its blood stream while viewing data visualisations of just how harmful current farmng systems can be, as well as positive messages promoting change.

In 1998, Powers of Ten was preserved in the United States’ Library of Congress as being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.” We intend this work to be equally enlightening, ensuring that the audience’s VR experience is interactive, meaningful and thrilling throughout, so that they might further reflect on the issues ‘dramatised’ long after it has ended.

D-Fuse’s pedigree as creators of experimental documentary content will ensure that high quality outcomes are delivered on-time and in-budget, previous works – notably the Small Global installations, which translated data about consumption into an immersive environment – having been shown at events including Sonar, Eyebeam and TriBeCa Film Festival and Prix Ars Electronica . Of further relevance to this proposal are the Carbon Crisis Blipverts, a series of animations exploring aspects of global warming, the Deforestation Blipvert forming part of Al Gore's current An Inconvenient Truth presentation.

On The Daily Climate Show with Anna Jones:

- could veganism be the answer to global warming? One group of scientists say that by stopping farming animals for food, greenhouse gas emissions would fall by the equivalent of a 68% reduction in carbon dioxide.
- and as the number of koalas declines around the world, there's some good news from Longleat Safari park as the first Southern Koala to be born in Europe emerges from his mother's pouch for the first time.

How much do you contribute to the climate catastrophe? This one simple thing has a bigger impact than anything else.
