(Food-Beverage-News.Com, November 21, 2014 ) Oakland, CA -- Ideas about dieting always revolve around words like ‘suffering', ‘unattainable', ‘temporary', or even ‘fad'. These words have similarly haunted the Vegan Diet for years—thus making it harder and harder for people to sustain their chosen diet. Having the right information, however, helps in turning this misconception around. As the month of November is widely celebrated as World Vegan Month, kitchenware brand Finesseur has released a quick and easy nutrient guide on their blog and Facebook fan page for Vegans and even soon-to-be Vegans.
The Vegan Diet is largely structured from the basic vegetarian diet where no meat is consumed. Vegans, on the other hand, take this idea of leaving meat aside further by completely turning away from all animal products—including eggs, milk, honey, and even fur. With a diet that heavily takes away all of the traditional foods from the conventional diet, Vegans have the tendency to suffer from unbalanced nutrition. Many experts agree that some Vegans do not consume as much protein and vitamin B-12 as they are supposed to. This missing out in quality nutrition can be attributed to the lack of information available.
"As the world celebrates World Vegan Month, we at Finesseur want to take part in supporting Vegans all over the world by providing them with an easy-to-follow guide on the important nutrients they should always include in their diet. Many Vegans suffer from the lack of some of the most important nutrients like protein, vitamin B-12, iron, and even calcium. Because of this, we have decided to help the Vegan public by offering them information on how to get those essential nutrients in a Vegan diet," Finesseur spokesperson Allison Montgomery says.
The Finesseur Nutrient Guide for Vegans provides information on how much of all those greens and yellows, and what kind, are needed in order to qualify and meet the recommended daily nutritional intake of certain nutrients like protein, vitamin B12, Calcium, etc. The nutrient guide, for example, cites the consumption of at least 50 grams of soy products and nuts as good sources of protein for any Vegan.
"This nutrient guide that we posted on our sites works towards meeting our goal of helping form a society that is healthy and strong. With this guide, we want Vegans to be assured that even without meat, eggs, and dairy, they can still meet the recommended daily nutritional intake. Hand-in-hand with the information we provided, people can surely benefit from using a diet food scale, like the Finesseur digital kitchen scale, that can provide accurate measurements of the food and/or ingredients they are introducing into their diet," Montgomery adds.
With Finesseur's Nutrient Guide for Vegans, following the Vegan Diet will no longer be haunted by gloomy and dissenting words to describe it. Instead, the Vegan Diet may now bring with it positive words like "easy-to-follow", "fun", and "achievable." And maybe next year, even more people will be celebrating World Vegan Month.
