VEGANUARY | What is it?
Founded in 2014, Veganuary is a non-profit organisation that encourages people worldwide to try veganism in January and then hopefully beyond. Throughout the year, Veganuary continues to encourage and support businesses alike to move to a plant-based diet and routine as a way of protecting the environment.
Benefits of Veganism
Hormones and inflammatories that are found in animal products can be pretty bad for you skin. Many plant foods however, are rich in antioxidants and certain nutrients that contribute to glowing, clear skin. When you purchase hydrating, anti-inflammatory ingredients and avoid inflammatory ingredients, your skin will likely improve! Try out one of Foamie's cleansing Face Bar if you're looking to give gleaming vegan skin a try.
According to The Vegan Calculator, one vegan saves 365 animal lives per year! You've probably heard a thing or two about the eco impact the livestock industry is having on our climate (and how much worse it will become!). Veganism is a great 1st step, step 2 is plastic-free!
Most foods that come from animals contain high levels of cholesterol. However, a vegan diet, rich in plant foods has been linked to a decreased risk of heart disease. Learn more about the cardiovascular benefits of veganism on the British Heart Foundation's website.
