What is a Vegan Diet?
What is a Vegan Diet? Vegans abstain from eating all animal products. This means no dairy, meat, or eggs for them! It's important to note that vegans avoid honey too- they only want plant based foods and nothing more. Some people choose this diet as an extension of their lifestyle choices while others do so because it may help with health problems. Is veganism right for you?
