Right now everyone wants a piece of healthy weight-loss success, and more and more people are trying the Vegan Diet, also known as the Plant-Based Diet. Unlike keto diets, which are both hard to sustain and not heart-healthy over the long term, the Vegan Diet is a whole-food plant-based way of eating that is healthy, sustainable and offers immunity-boosting foods to keep your energy up and your defenses strong against getting sick, as you shed pounds.
There are several diets flying around the internet that include the Adele Diet, which is also known as the Sirtfood Diet. (We tried it and here’s what happened.) Then there is Intermittent Fasting. (Which also works, as long as you eat healthy during the “on eating hours.”)
More people are trying to eat plant-based than ever, right now: 23 percent of consumers are incorporating plant-based or vegan foods into their diet: Sales of plant-based meats are up 35 percent, while overall sales of all vegan foods are up 90 percent since the height of the COVID-19 crisis. It’s only growing, as people want a diet that lets them lose weight and be healthy, and a vegan or plant-based “clean-eating” diet promises both: Healthy immunity, plus steady weight loss.

The Vegan Diet and Plant-Based Diet is winning now because it’s healthier than other diets. And yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like. You stay away from inflammation-boosting animal products and fill your plate with plant-based whole foods that are low in oil, minimally cooked, and full of fiber. And guess what? It works.
But the reason that the Vegan Diet is catching on right now is two-fold: One is that people are staying away from meat during the time of COVID-19, and the other is that the Vegan Diet helps you lose weight and build your immunity. It’s also sustainable, healthy and natural. There is nothing more natural than eating a whole-food plant-based diet low in oils and fats.
The Vegan Diet is exactly what it sounds like: You eat tons of vegetables, fruits, legumes, grains, nuts, and seeds. There’s no point system or counting carbs, calories or net-carbs. You fill your plate with plant-based whole foods that are low in oil, minimally cooked, and full of fiber. If you can grow it, it’s a “Go!” If you have to look for ingredients on a label and there are many, it’s a “No-Go!” This simple way of losing weight is natural, intuitive, and sustainable. If you lose 2 pounds a week (which is a healthy rate) you can lose 12 pounds by 4th of July.
