The Benefits of a Plant-Based Diet

What exactly is a plant-based diet?

Don't let the thought of a  plant based diet scare you. A plant-based diet is NOT a diet of vegetables alone. It is a diet based on fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and legumes. You have the choice to  exclude or minimize meat, including chicken, dairy products and eggs. The diet will definitely exclude foods made from refined flour and sugar, and certain refined vegetable oils.

There are several food categories from which to choose. You can still make many of your favorite and familiar meals such as pizza, mashed potatoes, and burritos.

Here are some of the foods you can add to a plant-based diet.

Water - How Much Do I Really Need to Drink?

As you already know, drinking water is VERY important. But why and how much? We'll talk about it all today. 

Water is essential for life. You can only survive a few days without it. And being hydrated is essential for health. I could argue that water is the most essential nutrient of them all.

Water is needed for every cell and function in your body.

  • Water is a huge part of your blood.

  • It cushions your joints

  • Aids digestion.

  • It helps stabilize your blood pressure and heart beat.

  • It helps to regulate your body temperature. 

  • Helps maintain electrolyte (mineral) balance.

  • And that's just a few of its roles.

On the other hand, dehydration can cause a lot of problems.
