It is reported that due to the promotion of some extreme picky eaters and animal rights defenders, veganism has become more and more popular and accepted by more people, including many famous stars.
Jennifer Lopez, a pop star, analyzed that her adherence to veganism for decades helped her keep slim, which made her look like she was 45 years old. Gwyneth Paltrow, another supporter of plant based diet and health expert, also advocates veganism in her book.
At the beginning of this year, Queen Beyonce and her husband Jay – z also had a vegan diet for 22 days, and now both insist on eating less animal products.
The famous Star Credit’s diet plan also excludes all animal foods, such as meat, dairy products and eggs, to help them have a better appearance and feel.
Lily Simpson, the founder of London Health Food Express Company, agrees with the concept of “detoxification kitchen” very much. She also told reporters about many healthy vegetarian foods. “By reducing the amount of red meat in our daily diet, we can give our digestive system more opportunities to purify,” she said
Detoxification kitchen, as well as a deli in Harvey Nichols, found that its vegetarian food service is currently the most popular among consumers. Model Laura Stone relies on the health food distribution company to help her return to the figure before she gave birth.
According to the Vegetarian Association, there are 150000 vegetarians in the UK and the sales of vegetarian products are still rising.
Research shows that red meat lovers, who often eat steak and hamburgers, will increase the risk of heart disease and cancer because of their high saturated fat content. So many people have turned into vegans.
However, some nutritionists believe that veganism cannot last too long, and it may be unhealthy if it lasts too long. Because it may cause people to lack protein, iron and other vitamins and minerals.
Milk, cheese, chicken and fish are rich in protein. These are essential for the body to form and repair muscles.
At the same time, red meat is the best source of iron. There are many important B vitamins in red meat, which help red blood cells carry oxygen to the whole body. Iron deficiency will lead to low energy and other adverse consequences.
But Lily said that vegetarians would not suffer from hunger if they ate correctly. She said, “As long as you replace calcium and protein correctly, you will be really energetic in at least 5 to 10 days.”
Lily said that vegetarians are not lack of protein and iron, because they can be taken from plant sources.
The most important thing in vegetarian diet is to ensure that you get protein, because protein is very important. People eat at least 50 grams of protein every day.
“For myself, I eat a lot of beans and grains every day – especially quinoa. In addition, I also eat spirulina and flaxseed juice. In this way, I feel more energetic all day long.
