THhe vegan and vegetarian diets have grown over the years, as more people started opting for a healthier lifestyle and better eating habits.
Speaking about the meat-free industry, health expert Vanessa Ascencao said a vegan diet is considered more than a diet but rather a way of life that excludes any form of animal exploitation or cruelty for food, clothing, or anything else.
Ascencao said new research shows that a predominantly plant-based diet may cut death from heart disease by a third â and help combat climate change.
She added that a largely plant-based diet, rich in nutrition, is not only good for heart health but may also counter obesity â one of South Africaâs biggest health threats.
