Top Plant Based Bloggers to Follow For Your Compassionate Health

People will argue what is the GREATEST benefit to eating plant based, whether that is vegetarian, completely vegan, or simply trying to add the desired 75% of the diet coming from vegetation.  How hard is that, exactly?  Well, it's an easy image if you consider 3/4 of your plate being vegetation.  Once you picture that portion of your plate, try to plan for 7 different greens and/or vegetables a day.  What this looks like for me is;  fruit in my morning smoothie,  2 vegetable sides at supper, and 1 large salad for lunch with multiple vegetables in it, with a piece of fruit at midday snack.

It's about living in a way where health is a natural outcome.  But there are some very specific reasons people may eat more plant based:

1.  Compassion for the animals that are normally subjected to providing our diet

2.  Compassion for the planet in which vegetation is a natural innate delivery of our diet, and animal farming costs our planet greatly!  The documentary Cowspiracy can shed some light on this if you are interested.

3.  Heart and cardiovascular health

4.  Cancer and stagnation illness 

5.  Dieting, and body image

6.  Depression and anxiety.  YES!  And the reason is that a cleaner body will not interfere by producing negative chemistry that could be interfering with the proper "happy" chemicals.  Also, many people believe that eating animal protein automatically brings with it consuming the fear based chemicals produced in the slaughtering process, and that consuming these negative chemicals could be influencing the rates of depression and anxiety.

7.  Better health and support for bodies dealing with diseases like diabetes, metabolic syndrome, neurological diseases, ALS, MS,and more

8.  Health for skin!  Cleaner, clearer, younger and brighter healthier looking skin
