Enhancing Your Health: The Nutritional Upside of Flexitarian Eating
Enjoy nutrient-dense foods
Flexitarian dishes involve the consumption of nutrient-dense food types like vegetables and whole foods. The nutritional components in plant-based dishes have minimal calories.
Aids in weight loss
Plant-based foods tend to have lower calories and can promote your weight loss goals. Most vegetable dishes contain fibre, which makes you feel full and eat less.
Keep your blood sugar levels
A flexitarian diet emphasises plant foods low in added sugars and high in fibre. You keep your blood sugar levels low and minimise the chances of diabetes.
Boost your heart health
Flexitarian dishes are rich in healthy fats, which are good for heart health. Vegetables consist of fibre and antioxidants, which reduce your blood pressure and increase good cholesterol for a healthy heart.
