Join the 21 day Vegan Challenge

Dear CleanFoodies,

The Vegetable Challenge was a great success! Did you participate too? Would you like to read that challenge back? Then look back here. To continue this great success, we are going to do another challenge, because we are going to eat vegan for 21 days! It's great fun if you do this with us and your friends.

 

Why a new challenge?

There are plenty of reasons to participate in the Vegan Challenge, namely for our health, the environment and animal suffering. Do you want to read more about this? Then look here. We are looking forward to a challenge!

 

What is veganism?

We have written an article about veganism. We also explain the difference between veganism and a plant-based diet. Look here if you are curious.

 

What is a Vegan Challenge?

During the Vegan Challenge, we challenge ourselves and you to eat vegan for 21 days. You do not eat and drink animal products for 21 days, such as meat, fish, eggs and milk. But don't forget honey, powdered milk powder in products and carmine dye (this is the red / pink color made from scale insects).

You can also go a step further by living vegan for 21 days, this means that you also do not use cosmetics that have been tested by animals and do not wear / buy clothing that is made of, for example, wool or leather. In addition, you can ask yourself whether you think zoos, circuses (with animals) and the dolphinariums are vegan;)

 

Which CleanFoods products are vegan?

A lot of products with us are vegan, but we also sell products that contain milk powder, for example. Below we have made a list with all vegan products that we sell:

 

What should we pay attention to?

When you don't eat animal products, there are some things to look out for. It is important to get enough protein, iron, vitamins B1, B2, B12 and calcium.

 

As a vegan, you can get protein, iron, B1 and B2 from:

  • tofu and tempeh
  • nuts, pips and seeds
  • vegetarian substitutes (pay close attention to the amount of protein and added vitamins)
  • legumes, such as lentils, kidney beans, chickpeas and peanuts

 

As a vegan, you can get B12 from:

 

As a vegan, you can get calcium from:

  • vegetable milk (with added calcium)
  • vegetable yogurt (with added calcium)
  • tofu and tempeh
  • leafy vegetables, such as spinach, kale, endive and bok choy
  • nuts and seeds, such as sesame seeds and flax seeds

 

We challenge you and your friends to participate in this challenge too! Every week we share an update on how our Vegan Challenge is doing.

 

Until next week!

Love Fleur
