There are a lot of reasons to consider adopting a mostly (or entirely) plant-based diet. First, there are the healthy lifestyle considerations, like wanting to feel cleaner and lighter by eating fresh, whole foods. Maybe you're thinking of it as a temporary or longer-term detox from processed options. For some, the decision might be a moral one, either on behalf of animals or our world at large. And for others, it might have something to do with Beyoncé’s much-publicized three-week vegan challenge. But changing your diet—especially if you’ve eaten one way your whole life—can feel incredibly overwhelming.
