All Caña Nature products have the V-Label quality seal as vegan products, which means that if you follow a vegan diet, you can include any of them without risk.

But in case you’re not sure what a vegan diet is or what veganism and all that surrounds it means, here are a few useful details:

What are vegan products?

A vegan product is one that contains no animal ingredients. The concept is not new, as it was coined by Donald Watson in 1944, at the same time as the Vegan Society was founded.

Veganism thus represents a strict version of vegetarianism, since it excludes from the diet any type of food of animal origin, speaking here of meat and fish of course, but also milk, honey or eggs.

What are the benefits of consuming vegan products?

Consuming vegan products can offer many benefits. Some of the most notable are the following:

• Vegan diets stand out for their high nutritional intake, despite the absence of meat in recipes. They stand out above all in vitamins A, C and E, as well as in the presence of fibre, potassium, magnesium and antioxidants.
• Several studies have identified that consuming vegan products can bring a much more positive mood, although this is obviously very subjective and is also conditioned by other factors.
• The presence of less saturated fat reduces the risk of many diseases, especially related to blood pressure and heart disease, as well as obesity and hypertension.
• It also eliminates the presence of many bacteria and parasites that may be present in some foods such as commercial meats or seafood and are not found in plant foods.
• A vegan diet is ideal for slimming down and achieving an ideal weight, both because of the low calorie content of many vegan recipes, and also because of the consumer’s greater awareness of a healthier diet.
• Many athletes choose vegan diets because of the amount of vitamins and minerals they can benefit from them, in order to improve their physical performance.
• Of course, there is the sustainable benefit, not only because of the care it represents for animals, but also because this type of diet requires a smaller carbon footprint on the environment and therefore protects the planet more than other alternatives.

How to identify a vegan product?

There are many websites and even apps that can help you identify whether a product is vegan or not. However, official certification is the best guarantee you can take advantage of.

The V-Label institution is responsible for labelling vegan or vegetarian products with a yellow background and a green plant symbol superimposed on it, together with the name “EUROPEAN VEGETARIAN UNION”.
