Plant-based
Dietary approach that emphasizes foods derived from plant sources, including fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, oils, whole grains, legumes, and beans. This diet can range from strictly vegan, excluding all animal products, to flexitarian, which includes occasional meat and fish, offering various health benefits such as lower risk of heart disease and improved digestion. Plant-based diets are particularly appealing to individuals seeking health improvements, environmental sustainability, and diverse, flexible eating habits.
