Do Vegans Eat Too Much Junk Food? - with The Happy Pear
Manage episode 470653912 series 3619885
This bite-sized episode tackles a question that comes up time and time again: Do vegans eat too many highly processed foods? This discussion was sparked by a live Q&A with The Happy Pear, where we explored what the evidence really says about diet quality in vegans.
We break down the differences between a vegan diet and a whole food plant-based diet, looking at how food choices impact overall health. Plus, if you’re vegan (or thinking about making the switch), we share some practical tips on how to keep your diet as healthy as possible—maximizing nutrients, minimizing ultra-processed foods, and making plant-based eating work for you.
Join us as we separate fact from fiction and help you build a balanced, nourishing diet that supports long-term health.
