In fact, imagine eating no animal products at all. Welcome to the vegan world. Could you survive?<\/p>\n<p>First of all, being vegan is about far more than just what you eat; it\u2019s a whole lifestyle choice that encompasses other aspects such as what you wear, what you wash with and what beauty products you use. It\u2019s a comprehensive alternative to consuming, using and depending on animal products.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of diet, vegans eat <strong>no meat, fish, dairy, eggs or honey. <\/strong>Vegans are much stricter than ovo-vegetarians (vegetarians who don\u2019t eat eggs but do eat dairy) and lacto-vegetarians (who don\u2019t eat dairy but do eat eggs), but they share some common ground with raw vegetarians, who only eat raw food.<\/p>\n<p>Highly restrictive for some, ethically sound for others, veganism certainly requires you to keep your body\u2019s nutritional needs in mind: <strong>vegans should make sure they get the calcium they aren\u2019t getting from dairy products and the unsaturated fats they aren\u2019t getting from blue fish. <\/strong>And they need to be creative enough to put together a varied, fun and satisfying diet that\u2019s both nutritional and tasty. You don\u2019t want to end up being tempted by a juicy steak because your quinoa dish didn\u2019t turn out to be quite as exciting as planned. If you really want to become a long-term vegan, you need to put some serious effort into coming up with imaginative, creative ideas.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, though, we\u2019re in 2018: there are plenty of interesting alternatives on the market for eating a healthy, tasty vegan diet.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll find lots of ideas in the largely unexplored world of <strong>cereals<\/strong>, which extends far beyond <u><a href=\"http:\/\/worldwide.borges.es\/blogpost\/three-vegetarian-pasta-recipes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pasta<\/a><\/u> and rice to include rye, quinoa, sorghum, spelt, bulgur and oats, among others, which are all excellent bases for making tasty bread or dishes with fresh vegetables.<\/p>\n<p>More alternatives? <strong>Pulses<\/strong>, which provide vegetable proteins, carbohydrates, fibre, minerals and vitamins; <strong>fruit<\/strong>, rich in fibre, vitamins and packed with antioxidants; and <strong>nuts<\/strong>, which give you a healthy energy boost and are an excellent source of healthy fats. Get your creative juices flowing by taking a look at this <u><a href=\"http:\/\/worldwide.borges.es\/blogpost\/appetisers-olive-oil-nuts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pistachio hummus<\/a><\/u>.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, you can replace cow\u2019s milk with other <strong>vegetable drinks<\/strong>, such as almond, rice or soya milk. And instead of meat, there are a thousand and one ways of cooking <strong>tofu<\/strong>, <strong>seitan<\/strong> or <strong>tempeh<\/strong>: stir-fried, bread-crumbed, in a soup\u2026 You can make great hamburgers and meatballs from textured soya protein, and delicious falafels from chickpeas.<\/p>\n<p>For a <strong>nutrient-packed breakfast<\/strong>, there\u2019s nothing better to start the day with than a <u><a href=\"http:\/\/worldwide.borges.es\/blogpost\/smoothie-bowls-nuts\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">smoothie bowl<\/a><\/u>, with fresh and dried fruit, cereals and chia and sunflower seeds and even vegetables such as kale, which has more calcium per calorie than milk and more iron per calorie than beef; try out some of the recipes <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/worldwide.borges.es\/blogpost\/kale-cook-latest-hip-superfood\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">below<\/a><\/span>.
