Introduction[edit | edit source]

Living on the Veg is a lifestyle choice that involves consuming a diet primarily composed of plant-based foods, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. This article explores the various aspects of living on the veg, including its health benefits, environmental impact, and ethical considerations.

Health Benefits[edit | edit source]

A plant-based diet has been associated with numerous health benefits. Research has shown that individuals who follow a plant-based lifestyle have a lower risk of developing chronic diseases such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer. Plant-based diets are typically rich in fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which contribute to overall health and well-being.

Ethical Considerations[edit | edit source]
