Vegan diet

The vegan diet is a strictly plant-based dietary pattern that completely excludes all animal-derived ingredients, including meat, poultry, fish, dairy, eggs, and honey. Instead, it relies entirely on plant foods such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. When properly planned, a vegan diet is highly nutrient-dense, providing an abundance of dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients while being naturally low in saturated fats and dietary cholesterol.
