What It’s Like to Be a Vegan
What It’s Like to Be a Vegan
Veganism is a lifestyle which excludes completely the use of all animal products. It covers all aspects of life, from food and cosmetics to clothing. This makes it more restrictive compared to both vegetarianism and Halal. The fundamental idea is that humans should lead their life without exploiting animals in any way. Veganism has its origins in vegetarianism, but became a separate movement in the 1940’s and has grown ever since. The term “vegan” was formally accepted in the 1960’s.
At present, this way of life is considered to be mainstream, meaning it is becoming widespread. National and international health and nutrition organisations have recognised the vegan diet as suitable for all stages of life. They can work well for both adults and children.
Still, keeping vegan a diet remains challenging in the modern world. This is because most traditional and even vegetarian food recipes include the use of animal products such as eggs, for example. Additionally, modern processed foods usually contain ingredients coming from animals, even if they are at molecular level, such as milk protein extract, for instance. The good news is that there is a solution to these issues.
At Retail Journey, our goal is to give vegans a diverse range of products which are guaranteed to contain no ingredients of animal origin. These include sweets for the whole family and baby foods. All products come from top brands whose names have become synonymous to quality. To support the vegan lifestyle, we also offer vegan skincare products and cosmetics.
