Are vegan snacks already part of your daily diet? More and more people are identifying with the vegan lifestyle , whether for ethical reasons regarding animal production, environmental sustainability or simply to improve health.
In fact, in hypermarkets, the sections dedicated to foods of plant origin are getting bigger. However, despite the immense benefits of this type of food, we must pay attention to the labels. This is important so that we do not run the risk of making choices rich in carbohydrates, fat and salt and very low in proteins or vitamins.
If the food choice is balanced, we can ingest all the nutrients essential for the proper functioning of the body. What about the so-called vitamin B12 ? It is always possible to include it through supplementation, if necessary.
Today I bring you 3 super practical options for vegan snacks to add to your healthy diet. Balanced and rich in protein, they are perfect for breaking your fast or for a light mid-afternoon meal.
