So many people are either switching towards a permanently plant-based diet or supplementing some of their meat-eating meals with planted based varieties.

Many individuals decide to take the plant-based road because of the health benefits.

One of the main reasons I decided to switch to plant-based alternatives was for health and ethical reasons.

My resolve was to eat the most nutrient-rich food possible and continually strive to learn more and more about food combinations that make a difference.

There are also many environmental benefits involved too.

Vegans and vegetarians are well known for having a lower body mass index and a lower risk of the most debilitating diseases today — such as cancer, heart disease and type two diabetes.

Although there are many benefits when you head towards the plant-based side of life, nutrient deficiencies can rear their heads.
