Vegetarian Diet & Vegan Eating

3) Fights obesity:

Vegans are known to be leaner than people who are on a western diet and consume a big load of meat every day as vegan diets offer more calories to be burned after each meal while most of the calories you consume from meat products get stored in the body as subcutaneous or visceral fat and very little gets burned making you hungrier, heavier and with less energy when compared to those on a vegetarian diet. By lowering your BMI through veganism, you live longer as you omit the risks of comorbidities associated with obesity from atherosclerosis and heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and strokes you turn your life for the better in many aspects.
