Vegan

A vegan diet and lifestyle excludes all animal products, including personal care items. People who identify as vegan do not eat fish, meat, cheese, yoghurt, eggs or honey.

FAQs about a vegan diet


Below are a few commonly asked questions if you’re interested in a vegan lifestyle.


Can I eat vegan food if I’m not vegan?


Absolutely! You can still eat vegan options even if you are not strictly vegan. Some people prefer flexitarianism. This is when you still consume meat and dairy products but primarily eat plant-based meals and often choose vegan alternatives.


Is being vegan actually healthier?


Because veganism is plant-based (e.g. fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds and beans), it can enhance your health, reducing the risk of heart disease and type 2 diabetes. 


However, although a vegan diet has benefits, it’s vital to remember that if it becomes stressful, it could negatively impact your mental health. If that concerns you, remaining flexible in your diet may be healthier. This is especially important if you have a history of eating disorders. Choose vegan alternatives when you can, but allow yourself to eat other options to ensure you get the nutrition you need.


Can I get enough protein if I’m vegan?


If you’re following a vegan diet, you may need to pay attention to getting enough calcium and protein. But it is entirely possible to reach your requirement as long as you regularly consume plenty of nuts, seeds, beans, peas and pulses.


Can I still eat sugar if I’m vegan?
