Vegan dietary choices offer many health benefits, including cardiovascular disease prevention and asthma support. Although plant-based diets are rich in antioxidants, fibre, trace minerals, and vitamins, supplementation may be necessary.
Being vegan is both a lifestyle and a nutritional focus that offers many health benefits, including improving asthma symptoms and supporting cardiovascular health. The health benefits of a vegan diet are in part due to the increased dietary fibre and the bounty of phytonutrients such as vitamin C and folate. Vegan diets also tend to be lower in saturated fats and arachidonic acid, an inflammatory fatty acid found primarily in meat. Together, these mean very good things for those following a vegan diet.
