(Food-Beverage-News.Com, November 06, 2014 ) Oakland, CA -- As deadly diseases continue to be rampant around the globe, it's no surprise that more and more people are taking the route to a healthier way of life. Today, a growing number of individuals are adopting veganism to improve their health, and prevent the risk of acquiring diseases caused by the consumption of processed meat and animal products. With November declared as World Vegan Month, contemporary kitchenware manufacturer Finesseur aims to help individuals discover the health benefits of going vegan with exciting vegan recipes they will share on their Facebook fan page daily for the whole month of November.
"Modifying our diet is the first step towards living a healthier life. Through the recipes that we will share on our Facebook page, we want to help people make healthy food choices through the vegan diet, which is designed to boost one's health and nutrition," says Finesseur spokesperson Allison Montgomery.
Citing an article by Catskill Animal Sanctuary founder and director Kathy Stevens entitled "Longevity, Anyone? Top 20 Reasons To Go Vegan During World Vegan Month", Montgomery shares some alarming discoveries on the impact of a cholesterol-laden diet on one's health.
"Consuming processed meat and other animal products, which are rich in cholesterol, can increase the risk of heart disease by 72 percent. Such diet can also put one at risk of developing other fatal diseases like prostate and colon cancer," relates Montgomery.
With a vegan diet, which emphasizes foods rich in fiber, vitamins and minerals and low in fat and cholesterol, individuals can lower their chances of acquiring such diseases. Women, in particular, can benefit immensely from a vegan diet, which helps reduce their risk of developing cervical and breast cancers by 34 percent. A vegan diet also lowers obesity risk in children, boosts mental health, and helps manage Type 2 diabetes more effectively.
"The recipes that we will feature are geared towards helping individuals make smart choices when it comes to their vegan diet. You will see a lot of great recipes that focus on using leafy greens, cereals, seeds, legumes, nuts, and grains as ingredients. We have chosen recipes that are not only nutritious but delicious as well. It's a common misconception that going on a plant-based diet can mean not being able to enjoy food, which is not true at all," explains Montgomery.
The recipes also aim to inspire people to be more proactive in the kitchen. Adds Montgomery, "With the featured recipes, individuals can be more hands-on in developing their own healthy vegan diet. They also get to learn the importance of using safe, high quality kitchen tools that aid in creating healthy recipes. The Finesseur Ceramic 8-inch Chef's Knife, for example, is a good kitchen tool to invest in as it is very safe and hygienic. With it, you can be sure that you are preparing and cooking food the healthy way. With its long-lasting sharpness, preparing vegan meals is also a breeze."
Through this vegan recipe campaign, Finesseur hopes that individuals will be more open and receptive about modifying their diets. "By learning to recreate our vegan recipe suggestions, you can monitor your diet more effectively. Likewise, you can be more in control of your health by using ingredients and kitchen tools that promote healthy well-being," concludes Montgomery.
