The Difference Between Vegan and Plant Based
Hey Guys! So many of you have asked us why we refer to ourselves as vegan instead of plant based, so we made a video about it! These are what we perceive to be the differences, if you feel differently, no worries! And whatever path and lifestyle you choose -- awesome! --- Vegan vs Plant based ---- WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A VEGAN DIET AND A PLANT-BASED DIET? A plant-based diet predominantly consists of plants; most people use the term to refer to a 100 percent plant diet, but some people include small amounts of animal products. A vegan diet totally eliminates all animal products. A vegan diet totally eliminates all animal products. Donald Watson coined the term “vegan” in 1944 to describe someone who fully abstains from all animal products for ethical reasons. It followed that a “vegan diet” completely eliminated animal-derived foods of all kinds, 100 percent of the time. Over time, more and more people have started to adopt the vegan way of eating for reasons other than animal welfare (such as health and the environment), and today “vegan diet” is commonly used to describe a diet that excludes animal products, regardless of motivation. CAN YOU BE VEGAN AND WHOLE-FOOD PLANT-BASED? Yes! It’s not just possible but common to be both vegan and whole-food, plant-based! Many people adopt a whole-food, plant-based diet and, after experiencing dramatic health benefits, become interested in other reasons for avoiding animal products, such as the environmental impact and ethical issues surrounding factory farming. We’ve also heard from vegans who gave up animal products for ethical reasons and, after some time, decided to adopt a whole-food, plant-based diet for their health.
