Getting started with plant-based diets
Eating plant-based diets is good for our health and has a less harmful environmental impact than eating a diet full of meat, dairy and processed foods. Plant-based diets does not mean being vegan. It means getting a majority of your nutrition from fresh, unprocessed plant based ingredients.
