What Is a Plant-Based Diet?

A plant-based diet primarily focuses on whole, plant-derived foods. It emphasizes fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds, and whole grains.

Breakfast

Yogurt and fruit bowl

Not Vegan! But is soooo good!

Drink

Ginger soda

Ginger soda is a refreshing and flavorful beverage made with carbonated water and ginger flavoring. It typically has a spicy, slightly sweet taste derived from the natural oils and compounds found in ginger root. Ginger soda can be enjoyed on its own over ice or mixed with other ingredients like lemon or lime juice for added zest. Some variations of ginger soda may also include additional ingredients such as sugar, honey, or herbal extracts to enhance the flavor profile. It's a popular choice for those looking for a non-alcoholic alternative to traditional sodas or as a mixer in cocktails and mocktails. Additionally, ginger soda is often praised for its potential health benefits, as ginger is known for its anti-inflammatory and digestive properties.
