✅ Vegan Fitness Meals 101 💪🌱 ▫️ Credit: ➡ @plantperform ▫️ This is how I approach pretty much all of my meals. It’s really, really simple and yet so versatile and effective. ▫️ I almost always cook a base of quinoa, brown rice, whole grain or lentil pasta, add a protein source and whatever bunch of veggies I have available and which are in season. ▫️ This approach has been working really great for me. I don’t track calories or macros, I just focus on eating plenty of healthy whole foods and making sure that I add a good amount of legumes, tofu or tempeh. ▫️ It’s not necessary at all to overcomplicate things. 🥦🥬 🍆🥑🥕🥔🍅 ▫️ Follow 👥, Like ♥️, Share 🔄 & Comment 📝 #bestofvegan #capetownvegan #cleaneating #cooking #eatclean #food #foodie #glutenfree #govegan #health #healthy #healthychoices #healthyfood #healthyliving #plantbased #recipe #southafricanvegan #vegan #veganfood #veganfoodshare #veganism #veganlife #veganrecipes #vegansa #veganshare #vegansnacks #vegansofig #vegansofinstagram #vegetarian #whatveganseat (at Cape Town, Western Province) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4xcShWJvS7/?igshid=172whr2kx2at2

🔘 How to Transition to a Plant-based Lifestyle ▫️ Credit: ➡ @plantyou ▫️ 💚 Listen. We’re all on a different journey here. For some people, the switch to ‘vegan’ happens overnight. ▫️ ✔️ For others (and what I would argue is the overwhelming majority) it takes small, consistent changes. ▫️ 🥦 Here are some practical steps you can take to slowly transition to a more plant-based, or vegan lifestyle. It’s key to define why you are making this choice in the first place in order to get motivated. Then you can start easing yourself in by adjusting parts of your diet and getting comfortable in the kitchen. ▫️ 🤗 Most importantly, be kind to yourself. Consistency will always matter more than a perfectionist mindset that makes you feel miserable. ▫️ 🧐 What would you add to this list? ▫️ Websites ↙️ 🕸 www.challenge22.com 🕸 www.eatingveg.org 🕸 www.plantbasednews.org 🕸 www.fastactionnetwork.com 🕸 www.carnism.org 🕸 www.vegankit.com 🕸 www.adaptt.org ▫️ #ditchdairy #easyveganrecipes #eatmoreplants #eatvegan #foodchoices #forksoverknives #goplantbased #govegan #plantbased #plantbaseddiet #vegan #vegancommunity #veganeats #veganfood #veganfoodie #veganfortheanimals #veganiseasy #veganmealplans #veganpower #vegansofig #vegansofinstagram #vegetarian #vegucated #wfpb #wfpbdiet #wholefoodsplantbased #capetownvegan #southafricanvegan #ukvegan (at Cape Town, Western Cape) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4u0x8BJOX_/?igshid=1t8tzb6d07512

✅ Minerals & Vitamins on A Vegan Diet 🌱 ▫️ Credit: ➡ @plantperform ▫️ Just save this overview so next time you need to look up which foods are particularly rich in a certain nutrient you won’t have to search for it. 🙂 ▫️ Ensuring that you get the right amount of minerals and vitamins on a vegan diet is pretty easy. Some nutrients are available in abundance whereas others require a little bit more knowledge. ▫️ Here are some simple, general guidelines for you to keep in mind: ▫️ 1. Focus on whole foods. 2. Make sure you’re getting eating plenty of each food group (fruits, whole grains, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds). 3. Avoid drinking caffeinated beverages 1 hour before and after your meals. 4. Always include a vitamin C source and a good amount of protein and fat in your meals in order to boost the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins as well as minerals such as iron and zinc. 5. Take a B12 supplement. ▫️ It’s really simple! ▫️ Enjoy your food. 💚🥦🥬 🍆🥑🥕🥔🍅 ▫️ By the way, as on any other diet, it makes sense to get a blood test done regularly. ▫️ Follow 👥, Like ♥️, Share 🔄 & Comment 📝 #crueltyfree #fit #food #foodie #govegan #greenfoodlovers #healthy #love #minerals #nutrients #nutrition #nutritionfacts #organic #plantbased #plantbasedlifestyle #vegan #veganbodybuilding #vegancommunity #veganfood #veganfoodshare #vegangirl #veganism #veganlife #veganmeme #veganpower #vegansofig #vegansofinstagram #vitamins #whatveganseat #wholefoods (at Cape Town, Western Province) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4r24qFJ5gQ/?igshid=997eid85gc52

🔘 A Prayer For Compassion ▫️ Credit: ➡ @plantbasednews ▫️ A Prayer for Compassion is a feature-length documentary about aligning spiritual and religious beliefs with compassion for all life. ▫️ Compassion is a feeling of deep sympathy and sorrow for another who is stricken by misfortune, accompanied by a strong desire to alleviate the suffering. ▫️ A Prayer for Compassion strives to inspire and encourage those already on a religious or spiritual path, to expand their circle of compassion to embrace all life, regardless of species, and make choices in alignment with this value. ▫️ The film follows Thomas Jackson on a quest across America, to Morocco for the UN Climate Conference and throughout the Indian subcontinent to ask the questions: ▫️ “Can compassion grow to include all beings? ▫️ & ▫️ “Can people who identify as religious or spiritual come to embrace the call to include all human and nonhuman beings in our circle of respect and caring and love?” ▫️ Drawing on traditions including Christianity (evangelical, Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Friends/Quakers, Seventh Day Adventism, Unity, and more); ▫️ Judaism; Islam; Hinduism; Buddhism; Jainism; the Native American tradition; Unitarian Universalism; Zoroastrianism; and the “spiritual but not religious” point of view. ▫️ A Prayer for Compassion calls on people of faith and spiritual seekers of every stripe to come together to bring about a world in which compassion to others extends to animals. ▫️ A world where “The wolf will live with the lamb, the leopard will lie down with the goat, the calf and the lion and the yearling together; and a little child will lead them…They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain, for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.” (Isaiah 11:6 and 11:9). ▫️ #animalactivist #animalactivists #animalrightsactivist #aprayerforcompassion #bestofvegan #capetownvegan #compassion #compassioncollectives #documentary #documentaryfilms #earthlings #govegan #movies #southafricanvegan #vegan #veganactivism #veganactivist #veganactivists #vegancommunity #vegandocumentary #veganfilmmaker #veganlife #veganlifestyle #veganmovie #veganmovie https://www.instagram.com/p/B4nh0X1piSN/?igshid=oszzfe7gwkq6

🔘 Whats the difference between chlorella & spirulina? 🧐 ▫️ Credit: ➡ @theshreddedvegan ▫️ I personally take a mixture of these two superfood powerhouses also often called blue-green algae. But only one of these is actually a type of algae, meanwhile the other is actually a form of bacteria! ▫️ 🥬 Chlorella: it is a "true" plant. Seaweed, giant kelp and pond moss are all examples of algae with plant-like characteristics, that are capable of performing photosynthesis. Algae is one of the most nutrient-dense, high protein, sustainable, safe and usually grown organically. Humans have been consuming algae as both food and medicine throughout history. ▫️ 🦠 Spirulina: is a member of the cyanobacteria family, a type of bacteria that are aquatic and photosynthetic meaning they live in water and produce their own food. So not a type of algae. Cyanobacteria have been around more than 3.5 billion years. ▫️ Spirulina and Choleralla have some key similarities. ▫️ 🔸️ Source of high quality protein 🔸️ Extremely nutrient dense 🔸️ Help regulate your minds, cognitive function, nervous system and the immune system 🔸️ Anti-aging due to the many antioxidants - But there are some key differences ▫️ 🔰 Cholorella unique properties ▫️ 🔸️ Highest amout of chlorophyll found in any known plant. Chlorophyll is what gives makes plants appear green but more importantly it acts as an antioxidant that helps detoxify the liver and digestive tract. 🔸️ High source of iron 🔸️ Chlorella growth factor, which is a potent phytonutrient that helps regenerate cells at a faster rate. 🔸️ One of the few plants that contain B12 🔸️ Chlorella is recognised as one of the most effective detoxifiers of chemicals and heavy metals. ▫️ 🔰 Spirulina unique properties: ▫️ 🔹️The richest source of GLA an essential fatty acid similar to omega 3 🔹️ Prevents viral infections and boosts immune system 🔹️higher digestibility of protein ▫️ 🚫 Warning: according to EPA "continuous sunleathal or low level exposure to cyan toxins can potentially lead to development of gastrointestinal, neurological and liver disorders. Dr Michael Greger warns against spirulina intake and advises to take chlorella instead. ▫️ #vegan https://www.instagram.com/p/B4XfHCIJb-y/?igshid=1xdmu9mfxe9pi

🥔 Why Carbs Are Awesome as A Vegan ▫️ Credit: ➡ @seasoned_tofu ▫️ 🥦 Whole Food Plant Based Carbs: The Vegan Advantage 🥦 ▫️ 🥖 Ahhh yes, carbs. A word that would make some of you shiver in your seats. Carbs have recently been demonized in the media due to the popularity of the keto diet. But when were talking about whole food plant based carbs, these foods provide you with the most benefits (ESPECIALLY as a vegan.) ▫️ 🍉 These types of carbs are great for weight maintenance, due to their high fiber (and sometimes water) content, making you feel fuller. ▫️ 🥝 This same fiber also contributes to a happy gut. The gut helps control everything from your weight to your mood to brain health, inflammation and immune function. Not only that, but 90% of serotonin (the happy hormone) is produced in the gut. ▫️ 🍞 A high carb low fat vegan diet has also been shown to clear arteries and reverse heart disease. Google "A way to reverse CAD?" and click on the first link. ▫️ 💪🏼 And of course we can't forget how important healthy carbs are for energy and muscle building. Carbs are converted to glucose, which our muscles, organs, and brain use for energy. They also aid in muscle repair and growth, due to the glycogen from carbs which is stored in the muscle. ▫️ 🍊 So don't be afraid of carbs. Just understand what the right ones are to eat. ▫️ Follow 👥, Like ♥️, Share 🔄 & Comment 📝 #eatingvegan #eatmoreplants #eatvegan #highcarb #highcarblowfat #highcarbvegan #plantbasedfitness #plantbasedfoods #veganathlete #veganbodybuilding #vegancarbs #vegandiet #veganfitness #veganfoods #vegangains #veganhealth #vegannutrition #veganpower #veganpowerlifting #veganprotein #veganshare #veganstrength #veganstrong #veganweightlifting #vgang #wfpb #whatveganseat #wholefoodsdiet #wholefoodsplantbased #southafricanvegan https://www.instagram.com/p/B4GH0nPJoNA/?igshid=9tnz5ecqg3vr

✳️ WFPB vs Keto ▫️ Credit: ➡ @theshreddedvegan ▫️ 🥩🥓🥩🧀 The ketogenic diet is just a repackaged Atkins diet aka low carb high fat diet. It was originally created back in the 1920s as a way of controlling epilepsy symptoms in children, short term. Despite numerous studies showing the dangers of consuming a diet high in saturated fats and animal protein over a long period of time, it has been marketed as the cure to fast weight loss and overall improved health. ▫️ ℹ The science: by removing carbohydrates, the body will not absorb glucose into the blood stream. By doing this, you deprive the brain and the body of its primary fuel source and it begins to breakdown fats and produce ketones in the liver. ▫️ The idea is that by staving the body of glucose, you will initiate fat metabolism which supporters of the KD say results in weight loss and greater mental performance. ▫️ 🤓 However this rise in fat oxidation is often misconstrued as a greater rate of net fat mass reduction on the body, but this assumption ignores the increase in fat intake and storage. ▫️ The reason people experience fast weight loss initially on a KD is not because they are burning loads of fat, but because the body is also burning protein in the absence of carbohydrates and protein = lean body mass (fat free mass) something you don't want to be losing no matter who you are! A study on cross athletes consuming a KD showed an 8% decrease in leg muscle mass. ▫️ 🍌🍇🥦Plants! The only diet ever shown to reverse heart disease & other chronic diseases along with the extensive research showing the many positive health benefits plant foods give. ▫️ Not only that we have living evidence from the blue zones, where the most centurions in the world live, that a WFPB diet is the most compatible with a human being for healthy long living and immediate benefits,like fat loss, improved muscle gain, improve overall health, protect against disease & cancer and increase your energy all whilst making a massive difference to the enviroment. ▫️ #capetownvegan #foodgroup #healthyfood #instafood #keto #ketodiet #ketorecipe #ketorecipes #photooftheday #southafricanvegan #veganhealth #wfpb #wholefoodplantbased https://www.instagram.com/p/B396QzYpZaH/?igshid=s8c7mrnlvsbu

🍆 Purple Superfoods ▫️ Credit: ➡ @theshreddedvegan ▫️ Purple fruits and vegetables are rich in anthocyanins, a type of antioxidant which are natural plant pigments that provide foods with their unique purple colour. Antioxidants are naturally produced by the plant to protect the plant from droughts, UV Ray's exposure, environmental stressors and more. ▫️ These same antioxidants break down free radicals in the human body and have many other health benefits. Vibrant purple, red and blue fruits & veg often indicates nutrient density and antioxidants. The darker the colour of a food, the higher the contents of antioxidants and nutrients will be, and the healthier the food. ▫️ Include purple fruits and vegetables into your diet at least 4-5 days a week along with dark green, orange and yellow foods for maximum benefits. ▫️ ➕ The health benefits research shows: ▫️ ✔ Anti-Inflammatory - Anthocyanins have consistently shown to reduce inflammation. Chronic inflammation is one of the leading causes of all diseases. ▫️ 🧠 Good for your brain - A 2003 study published in the archives of pharmacy research showed the memory enhancing effects of eating purple sweet potatoes. Another study showed the ability if anthocyanins to help prevent age related decline in the nervous system. They have also been shown to improve memory and learning. ▫️ 🧬 Anti-Cancer - Anthocyanins are associated with cancer prevention. A 2013 study published in Molecular Nutrition & Food Research suggests that purple sweet potato may protect against colorectal cancer the third most common cancer. ▫️ They also can help protect and heal your cells from damage and protect you from many lifestyle diseases, diabetes, and cardiovascular and neurological diseases. Along with improved skin, improved blood circulation and more. ▫️ If you do not already have a purple daily staple then you should definitely consider including one or two.💪🏽 ▫️ #capetownvegan #govegan #healthyeating #healthyfood #healthylifestyle #naturalfoods #nutrition #plantbased #plantbasedfoods #plantbasednutrition #plantsofinstagram #plantstagram #plants🌿 #superfood #superfoodideas #superfoods #superfruit #vegan #veganhealth #vegannutrition https://www.instagram.com/p/B37CdSbpYbt/?igshid=1uheu524ac79v

🔥 Healing 4-Ingredient Super Tonic ▫️ Credit: ➡ @theshreddedvegan ▫️ ☀️ Add this powerful tonic to your morning ritual. Rich in antioxidants, vitamin C, anti-inflammatory and detoxifying benefits that help to gently cleanse the body of toxins, repair muscle damage and improve strength & fitness.💪🏾 ▫️ 🌱 It's made with organic turmeric powder, organic ginger powder and the juice firm a slice of fresh lemon. Adding a pinch of pepper(black or cayenne) will help your body assimilate the nutrients better and aid in the detoxification. ▫️ ✔ Turmeric : in recent years the numerous powerful health benefits of turmeric (a herb used in Indian medicinal remedies and cooking for thousands of years) have been proved by science. The key compounds in turmeric are called curcuminoids. Curcumins anti-inflammatory properties are so potent it has been shown to match the power of some anti-inflammatory drugs. But the downside is curcumin is not well absorbed in the body. ▫️ ✔ Ginger: Also rich in antioxidants, antibacterial and has anti inflammatory benefits. It contains phytochemicals which stimulate digestion, soothes stomach pains and provides a blood thinning effect like aspirin which may improve blood circulation. The benefits found in ginger may also aid in the body's own natural cleansing process by eliminating waste and toxins. ▫️ ✔ Black pepper: contains the bioactive compound piperine, which is an alkaloid. Piperine has been shown to help relive headaches, nausea and poor digestion and also has anti-inflammatory properties. But its most significant benefit which research supports is its ability to boost the absorption of curcumin by 2000%. ▫️ ✔ Lemon: is naturally detoxifying and alkalizing in the body and high in vitamin C which boosts immunity and they contain flavonoids compounds that have antioxidant and anti-cancer properties. ▫️ 💚 I hope this has been helpful 👆🏽 Save for later 👇🏽 Share with your people ▫️ Source: healthline.com/nutrtion/turmeric-and-ginger Source: organicfacts.net/health-benefits/beverage/lemon-ginger-tea ▫️ #capetownvegan #fueledbyplants #govegan #health #herbalhealth #herbs #heskthtonic #plantbased #plantbasednutrition #plantbuilt #plantfu https://www.instagram.com/p/B3xU5JSJJjR/?igshid=i3fway9lufol
