Download or read book The Pegan Diet written by Dr. Mark Hyman and published by Little, Brown Spark. This book was released on 2021-02-23 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelve-time New York Times bestselling author Mark Hyman, MD, presents his unique Pegan diet—including meal plans, recipes, and shopping lists. For decades, the diet wars have pitted advocates for the low-carb, high-fat paleo diet against advocates of the exclusively plant-based vegan diet and dozens of other diets leaving most of us bewildered and confused. For those of us on the sidelines, trying to figure out which approach is best has been nearly impossible—both extreme diets have unique benefits and drawbacks. But how can it be, we've asked desperately, that our only options are bacon and butter three times a day or endless kale salads? How do we eat to reverse disease, optimal health, longevity and performance. How do we eat to reverse climate change? There must be a better way! Fortunately, there is. With The Pegan Diet's food-is-medicine approach, Mark Hyman explains how to take the best aspects of the paleo diet (good fats, limited refined carbs, limited sugar) and combine them with the vegan diet (lots and lots of fresh, healthy veggies) to create a delicious diet that is not only good for your brain and your body, but also good for the planet. Featuring thirty recipes and plenty of infographics illustrating the concepts, The Pegan Diet offers a balanced and easy-to-follow approach to eating that will help you get, and stay, fit, healthy, focused, and happy—for life.

Download or read book Cooking Vegan written by Vesanto Melina and published by Book Publishing Company. This book was released on 2012-07-16 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: COOKING VEGAN was designed to help vegan and non-vegans alike understand how to use plant-based foods to sustain and maintain good health. Internationally renowned vegan dietitian Vesanto Melina and professional chef Joseph Forest combine their expansive knowledge and experience in this tour de force of information and tempting recipes to help readers expand their nutritional knowledge and increase their culinary repertoire. A companion book to Vesanto's best-selling Becoming Vegan (coauthored with Brenda Davis, R.D.), COOKING VEGAN expertly demonstrates that a well-balanced vegan diet supplies all the nutrients our bodies need. Explicit information is given on which foods provide protein to help maintain fitness, the right combination of nutrients to build strong bones, the best sources for carbohydrates and fats, and smart choices for obtaining vitamins D and B12. Each recipe has a complete nutritional analysis listing the number of calories and the amount of protein, fat, carbohydrates, minerals, vitamins, and essential fatty acids per cup or serving. A Vegan Food Guide describes the necessary food groups and provides recommended servings for optimal nutrition. Special emphasis was placed on creating foods that appeal to the senses of sight, smell, taste, and touch. A beginner seeking simplicity and a gourmet chef exploring the depths and nuances of flavor will both find nourishing and appetizing meals easy to assemble. Twelve daily menus combine recipes to help people of any age, activity level, or ability in the kitchen get a sense of how to mix and match dishes to suit their needs. A few of the delicious recipes to savor include Cashew Cheese Lasagne, Fiesta Quinoa Salad w/ Lime Dressing, Portobello Mushroom Burgers, Tuscan Minestrone and Chocolate-Orange Cake. Cooking Vegan shows how to adopt a diet that is not only healthful, but inspirational to prepare, and satisfying to eat.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vegan diets for babies should be well-planned - I'm sure this doesn't surprise you. But what does "well-planned" mean exactly? This little book will explain ... in easy to understand language, but based on proper science. For those of you who will not read any further: All vegan parents must make sure that their vegan baby will get enough vitamin B12. But we can do better than that. Which foods are suitable for vegan babies? Which nutrients should you know and pay attention to? Which supplements are needed or could be useful? All this might sound intimidating, and without any guidance it can be. But with this little book as your guide you'll be laughing once you see how easy it is. This book is about practical no-nonsense advice. No unnecessary filler. This book comes straight to the point. This book was written by a fellow vegan. This book will not trivialize (or hush up) the dangers of a severe vitamin B12 deficiency. This book was written by a scientist. This book will not tell you that "a vegan diet for babies is dangerous" - because, if it is well-planned, it really is not dangerous at all. This book is science-based. That means that all contents are based on the latest medical and nutrition research. But this book is not a rocket science manual. Everything is described clearly, in easy to understand langauge. At the same time, you can feel confident if you show this book to your pediatrician, family doctor, midwife, registered dietitian, or any health care professional. Vegan nutrition should be easy and doable for everyone - and this is how can be done. This book was written to provide your baby with the best start in life. People who choose a vegan diet (whatever the reason may be) have a right to adequate nutrition information. Your baby - like all babies worldwide - has "the human right to adequate food and freedom from hunger". Your baby has the right to adequate nutrition. Like Brenda Davis said: "Let's do this right."

Download or read book Vegetarian Nutrition and Wellness written by Winston J. Craig and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A large amount of research effort goes into assessing the health benefits of a plant-based diet, resulting from human desire to consume a more sustainable diet that is less destructive of the earth’s natural resources. In addition, a growing number of people are choosing the vegan or total vegetarian diet because of the potential to greatly reduce the risk of chronic diseases and mortality rates. Although this interest in plant-based eating is popular, there exist concerns on the safety of some vegetarian diets, especially a vegan diet. This book describes issues of the vegetarian diet and outlines ways to prevent nutrient deficiencies. Vegetarian Nutrition and Wellness focuses on synthesizing research around vegetarian diets and human health. A major section of the book deals with how a vegetarian diet protects population groups from the major chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases, obesity, and various cancers. Based upon ecological and clinical studies, chapter authors explain the health-promoting properties of plant-based diets, and compare/contrast health outcomes obtained from consuming omnivorous diets with a vegetarian or vegan diet. Fruits and vegetables figure prominently in vegetarian diets and provide a substantial effect in disease reduction and health-promoting properties of a plant-based diet. Vegetarian Nutrition and Wellness is written for the academic community, registered dietitians, health professionals, and graduate students in nutrition and public health. Each chapter provides a comprehensive review of the scientific literature and includes a concise summary at the beginning of each chapter. The time is ripe for this book to update the scientific community with a collage of well-documented topics on vegetarian nutrition.
