Vegan Diet

Nonfood Factors

Exercise as you normally would. Experts recommend at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity activity most days of the week.

Is This Diet Vegetarian-Friendly?

Vegetarians can eat all vegan foods, though the reverse is not true.

Eating Out

Specialty vegan restaurants are becoming increasingly popular, and many other restaurants offer some vegan options. If you are not sure whether something is vegan it’s better to ask ahead of time. Be aware of “hidden” sources of animal products such as chicken stock in soups or sauces, butter and eggs in baked goods, and gelatin in some desserts.
