Veganuary

Veganuary is a non-profit organization and campaign that encourages people around the world to eat vegan in January and beyond, inspiring people to make sustainable food choices.

A vegan diet is a purely plant-based diet that avoids all animal products. This form of nutrition brings with it numerous advantages:

-avoidance of animal suffering

-protection of climate and environment

-Improvement of human health

The vision of the international organization is thereby the creation of a vegan world: "A world without industrial animal husbandry and slaughterhouses. A world where food production does not destroy forests, pollute rivers and oceans, exacerbate climate change, and contribute to the extinction of wildlife populations."

Why Vegan?

A vegan diet is often associated with lower cholesterol levels, which reduces the risk of heart disease.

Vegetarian and vegan diets can have a positive effect on blood pressure and thus reduce the risk of heart disease and strokes.

A vegan diet can significantly reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes, a globally increasing health problem.

Research suggests that a plant-based diet is effective in weight loss and helps maintain a healthy body weight.

A plant-based diet, rich in fiber, promotes healthy intestinal flora and can reduce digestive problems.

Certain studies show that a plant-based diet can reduce the risk of various types of cancer.

A diet rich in fruit and vegetables can contribute to clearer and healthier skin.

How to Veganuary

Veganism is often defined by what is not eaten: Meat, fish, eggs and dairy products, honey, and some animal ingredients hidden in products, such as whey (from milk) and gelatin (from animal bones). What remains are a lot of foods that make the purely plant-based diet possible. For almost every animal ingredient and product, there is a purely plant-based alternative. A vegan meal can look and taste just like a non-vegan meal!

In addition to nutrition, other aspects such as clothing and cosmetics are also part of a vegan lifestyle. Apps such as CodeCheck for Apple and Android or a web version in the browser can be used to find out whether a product is vegan by scanning the barcode or the product name. In addition, suitable alternatives are shown.
