3 Reasons Plant-Based Potato Salad is an Even Healthier Choice
Marvin and I can tell you from experience that Marvin’s early heart disease diagnosis healed itself when he made the switch to a vegan diet. Here are some science-backed resources that support a plant-based diet:
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine recommends a plant-based diet. Removing animal-based ingredients lowers your risk of heart disease, including lowering your cholesterol intake.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), research shows that a plant-based diet is connected to better health outcomes and is a good first step toward well-being.
The National Library of Medicine’s research shows that a plant-based diet lowers the risk of obesity and is ideal for weight management.
We’re driven to bring you the best potato salad ever made vegan for the health of it.
Plant-Based Diets = Better Health for You, the Planet, and the Animals
It’s true fam, a plant-based diet is better for our health and it’s better for the health of our planet. Most of the meat we buy and eat is from factory farms. Factory farming was developed to help farmers maintain a profit by squeezing a large amount of chickens, pigs, or cows into a small space.
This is where it gets hard fam, but this truth needs some light shined on it. Let me share why we’re so committed to bringing you vegan potato salad and helping you Swap Out The Swine.
The factory farm and egg industry promotes animal suffering by treating chickens like disposable objects. Practices that use brute force, inflict pain, restrict movement, and starvation are common. Ultimately factory farms dispose of and shorten animals' lives.
On top of all of this animal cruelty, factory farming is a breeding ground for disease. So they need to use antibiotics to help the hens survive these conditions. These antibiotics are found in meat and eggs causing antibiotic resistance… directly affecting our health!
AND then there’s the planet's destruction. Factory farming creates air and water pollution with the massive amount of manure animals create. All life directly surrounding a factory farm is affected and this pollution contributes to climate change.
When I looked at this big picture, I knew we had to accept the challenge to make the best potato salad vegan.
