A plant based diet may seem intimidating and unwholesome, as it restricts major food groups, such as meat, dairy, and eggs from a diet. The foods restricted are, undeniably, major sources of protein in a diet. However, focusing mainly on four categories, fruits, vegetables, legumes, and grains, I have tested out plenty of recipes to create a cook book that is comprised of nutritious, protein filled, plant based recipes. The cook book is attached to a well-researched "guide book" for new vegans. The guide book contains answers to many asked questions, tips, and tricks to follow a plant based diet with ease. I have written a supplemental paper that includes and explains my blood work from before and after my plant based diet that ties together, and proves, that most nutrients, namely excluding vitamin B12, can be found through a proper and balanced plant based diet. A proper plant based diet can help regulate irregular balances and deficiencies, as I found through my own blood work. Through the research of different texts and scientific journals, I am able to conclude that a proper plant based diet can provide the same, if not more, nutrients that an animal based diet can, as well as provide a sustainable way of living. With an increase in the worlds population, planet Earth must be able to provide a home and food for 2 billion more people. A vegan diet is sustainable for the environment, in comparison to an animal diet, as it cuts down exponentially on the space, water, and food necessary to sustain animal meat.
