A Vegan Sabbatical Can Boost Your Health
Vidcast: https://youtu.be/4V_LSBkMV5s
Four months on a plant-based, low fat diet can cleanse your gut and leave you with a healthier microbiome that helps you control your weight, improve your body composition, and avoid diabetes. The Physician Committee for Responsible Medicine demonstrated this result after studying 147 subject half of whom followed the vegan program.
Those foregoing meat and fish showed significantly reduced body weights, a significantly lower fat mass, an increase in their insulin sensitivity, and a healthier gastrointestinal bacterial composition. The investigators conclude that the fiber from the plant-based diet is the magic sauce that refines the gut microbiome.
If you’re looking for a healthy way to lose some weight and improve your metabolism, take a break and become a vegan for 12 weeks.
