We begin by looking at what veganism is and the origins of the movement. You’ll take a fascinating journey through the history of veganism and its global influence, as well as the health, environmental, and ethical considerations often linked to this lifestyle.
A healthy vegan diet is all about balance. This course on vegan nutrition shows you how to meet key nutrient needs, like protein, calcium, and iron, while creating enjoyable and varied meal plans. We’ll also highlight common mistakes to avoid so you can maintain energy and wellbeing, with plenty of variety in your meals.
Adapting to a new way of eating can be a big lifestyle change, so we explore different transition methods to help you approach veganism in a way that works for your lifestyle. You’ll also learn how to track your own wellbeing during the process and adapt your diet to suit your needs.
Vegan diets can look different depending on age, activity level, and lifestyle. This course on veganism considers special dietary needs (from a theoretical point of view only) for groups such as:
Pregnant women.
Infants and children.
Athletes and bodybuilders.
People with specific health goals.
You’ll gain a good understanding of how plant-based nutrition can be adapted to support different life stages and activities.
