vegan is more than the diet. So no leather, no fur, etc. A vegan has a plant based diet but you aren't necessarily vegan if you eat a plant based diet.
Can you all help Bobby and I know the difference?https://twitter.com/mrstricklin_emc/status/949704639527743488 …

Plant-based = diet Vegan = social justice

Vegan necessarily excludes all animal products. Includes food, clothing, furniture and considers sea life and insects as part of the excluded use group. May be quite healthy but can be unhealthy as well if high in sat fat and processed foods.
-
Plant based has no rigorous definition but is very low in sat fat and processed foods and may include small amounts of foods like honey that are not vegan.

Easiest distinction between vegan & whole food plant-based diet: A vegan can eat Oreo cookies (Oreos aren’t made with animal ingredients), while people who are whole food plant-based cannot eat Oreos (well, they can, they just choose not to).https://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-24031/veganism-versus-a-whole-food-plantbased-diet-whats-the-difference.html …

If I understand it right, plant-based is limited to a dietary definition of no animal products. Vegan is more all-encompassing, meaning no animal products of any kind. Leather, wool, etc.
-
Yes, this & both eat absolutely no animal products, the main difference is reason y. Vegans usually 4 ethical reasons, plant based 4 health.
-
& for this reason, plant-based usually stay away from processed junk food, stick to more whole foods.
-
Personal experience - I love it! Plant based seems to be a newer term & lesser known. I don't really prefer one term over the other.
-
There are many reasons to do it I found if u start for just 1 reason u usually end up sticking w/it for other reasons u learn along the way.

The three E's of vegetarians, as I have seen, are: Ethical - animals are not to be used by humans Environmental - the animal industry is harming the environment Epidemiological - mostly to do with the health of humans, thus taking care of the first two above...

1st, "Eating vegan" & "being Vegan" are different. 1 is diet, other is way of life. The way eating "Whole Food Plant Based" (WFPB) isn't just eating vegan is that you cut out processed foods. Ex: Oreos & Fritos are vegan, but not healthy. Also, cut out added salt, sugar, & oil.

I went raw vegan for two years. Life changer. Turns out you grow compassion for the helpless, and find more compassion for yourself. Not ingesting suffering helps u stop being a source of suffering helps you to suffer less. Peace. A glow. Vitality. Better love life. All rewards!

Vegans abstain from any animal products - WFPBD minimize it's intake - Vegan desserts have sugar for instance - WFBD does not - Vegans eat processed foods - or can - but WFBD says no - only plant-based foods - no potato chips for WFPBD but yes for Vegans. Get it now? ;)

In other words gentlemen, if you want "All that and a bag of chips" you ain't goin' Whole Foods Plant-Based Diet!" ;) <3 <3 And no more mama's
#HomeCookin' and I bet you can't do that for a lifetime. lol

There difference is God made all plants and animals to eat . Eat all things in moderation. That’s why God gave you incisors . The problem is to much of anything is bad. But to each there own!
