Veganism

Veganism, to the uninitiated, can seem like an entirely strict means of dietary consumption. It’s true to say that it does have major benefits however, chief of all limiting your contribution to animal agriculture and the environmental impact of that. But this guide isn’t concerned with why you might want to go vegan as opposed to exactly how possible it is to integrate this into your lifestyle at all.

After all, those who see ‘mock’ vegan foods molded to look exactly the same and taste similar to juicy beefburgers or sausages might think that vegans are somehow in denial about wanting meat in the first place. Of course, that’s not the case, but impressions like this sometimes raise questions in those who aren’t informed about the practice.

What if you have separate goals, such as light bodybuilding, or what if you’re not sure how expensive this can be? In this post, we’ll discuss a few pointers for becoming vegan and hope to dispel some myths by implication. Without further ado, let’s get started:

My&Sanné is a new Mediterranean restaurant on Brompton Road which specialises in regional dishes with hints of Greek, Italian and Asian flavours. The interior is impressive – light and airy, it embodies the essence of an elegant greenhouse with Bistro seats, planters and urns, and a flower-ceiling with string lights and lanterns.

An all-day restaurant, mornings at My&Sanné offers up dishes such as Deconstructed Avocado Tarine; ‘Nduja Eggs Benedict, or Arjurvedic Porridge, along with a selection of fun smoothies. Lunch and dinner serves up a robust array of seafood and meat dishes. There is a fabulous display of patisseries and desserts to round out your meal, not to mention an innovative cocktail and mocktail menu and a rounded wine selection to quench your thirst.

We tried the Singapore-style crab leg with crispy bao bun (£29). The crab leg was of a perfectly tender texture and enhanced with sweet chilli flavours, with the bao bun resembling an unctuous crispy fried bread. It was crispy and light on the outside, yet soft on the inside. In all a very delicious dish.

Being health-conscious, many of us are looking for ways to ensure that we fuel our body with exactly what it needs to function. Diets aren’t always that great for you, and while you can see short-term results in regards to weight loss or feel good, they often can’t be sustained for the long-term, leaving you back where you started. Nourishing your body with the nutrients it needs really is the best policy, and eating clean and living well and positively can really pay dividends. However, it isn’t always easy to maintain a well-balanced diet, and while we can all have our off days, it is always a good idea to take note of some tips and tricks to help you stay on track. Here are some of the things that could help you.

We live in a society that constantly encourages us to compare ourselves to others – whether that means the people we see on TV or those who appear on our social media feeds. This means that you can spend hour upon hour scrolling through Instagram, wondering why you don’t look exactly like the models on the photographs, or why your hair never looks as shiny, or your make-up as smooth or ‘natural’. This hyper-competitive pressure allows toxic diet culture to thrive, which means that many young people develop a negative relationship with food or at least begin to view it differently than they once did.

As a result, we must find as many ways as possible to challenge damaging perceptions of beauty alongside diet culture – to help people repair their relationship with food. Remember, avoiding diet culture does not mean that your lifestyle will be unhealthy – in fact, it means it will probably be healthier than it was previously.
