The first episode of #FoodMonth is here, and it is about vegan and vegetarian diets! Are vegetables and plant-based foods enough to make you full? Can you get enough proteins and nutrients without meat? And is switching to a more plant-based diet *really* enough to combat climate change and promote sustainability? Listen to this week’s TWD episode to find out if these wonder foods are enough.
TLDR: With careful planning, switching to a plant-based diet may be more healthy and equally satiating. Bonus: Plant-based or plant-forward diets are better for the environment!
