Benefits of eating a plant-based diet

It’s less expensive.

The cost of food has skyrocketed in the United States, but meat products have made the largest jumps. Beans and legumes are great sources of protein that cost significantly less.

It’s better for the environment.

Plant-based diets tend to have a lower environmental impact, requiring less energy to produce their sources of sustenance. Thus, incorporating more fruits and vegetables and fewer meat products into your diet could benefit the planet as a whole.

It’s high in fiber.

Eating a plant-based diet makes it considerably easier to meet your recommended daily fiber intake. Fiber is present in all unprocessed plant foods and is what makes up the structure of the plant.

It helps reduce inflammation.

Plants’ essential nutrients work to resolve inflammation in your body. The same tiny phytochemicals and antioxidants that boost your immune system also go around your body neutralizing toxins from pollution, processed food, bacteria, viruses and more.
