Whether you feel like your meat consumption is overloading your body, or you are thinking about how the meat industry is affecting the environment. Or even if you are curious about the benefits of going vegan.

You are on the right track to enhancing your lifestyle and relationship with your body. 

Here are three benefits to consider if you want to go vegan in Egypt:

1- Heart Disease Risks

“According to the latest WHO data published in 2018, Coronary Heart Disease Deaths in Egypt reached 163,171 or 29.38% of total deaths. The age-adjusted Death Rate is 271.69 per 100,000 of the population, ranks Egypt #15 in the world.”

Yes, a scary statistic, but those numbers don’t have to represent you! 

You can beat the numbers if you learn to love your body and understand how to nourish it properly. Otherwise, you will age before your time and your heart will restrict your movement, and independence with time. 

2- Recovering from eating disorders 

In 2014, nutrition researcher Somaya Mahmoud conducted interviews with 500 Egyptian girls attending both private and public schools. Her findings indicated that 1.6 percent of the girls were bulimic and 0.5 percent were anorexic, statistics that are nearly identical to those in the US.

Eating disorders dismantle your relationship with your body and deform how you treat your body. 

While any diet should be built on nourishing your body, veganism is the only one that shows how you can do so and truly learn what your body needs and how to provide it in the most delicious way possible 

3- Supporting your peak performance as an athlete in Egypt 

“There are some professional vegan athletes who are active in endurance disciplines, such as Fiona Oakes (ultra-marathon running, set her fourth world record  in 2018); Scott Jurek (ultra-marathon running, has set multiple records including the speed record for completing the Appalachian Trail of approximately 2,200 miles in 46 days, 8 hours, 7 minutes in 2015); Rich Roll (five-time Ultra Ironman triathlete); or Gerlinde Kaltenbrunner (the most successful female mountaineer in the world, has climbed all 14 eight-thousanders without supplementary oxygen or the help of porters). 

While Novak Djokovic (Number 1 in the 2018 ATP ranking list, 14-times Grand Slam winner, eg. Wimbledon, Australian Open) and Serena Williams (Number 16 in the 2018 ATP World ranking list, 23-times Grand Slam winner, eg. Wimbledon, Australian Open, French Open, US Open) are role models for vegan tennis athletes” ~ ClinMed Journals

All those athletes are vegan and they use this diet to support and maintain their peak performance levels throughout their careers with no deficit.

So this must mean that choosing to go vegan won’t affect your performance as an athlete. On the contrary, it could help you sustain it further, and nourish your body in ways you haven’t thought about before. 

Let’s Wrap-up,

Going vegan here in Egypt is now more accessible, especially with our new agile restaurant VegInn opening; you’ll get to experience true vibrant, nutritious food that isn’t restrictive, and at the same time packed with flavour to fit the Egyptian appetite.
