plant-based diet and animal welfare
A plant-based diet refers to a way of eating that primarily focuses on consuming foods derived from plants, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. It generally minimizes or avoids the consumption of meat, dairy products, and other animal-derived food items. Animal welfare, on the other hand, pertains to the ethical treatment and well-being of animals, ensuring they are free from unnecessary suffering and provided with appropriate care and conditions. The term "plant-based diet and animal welfare" signifies the connection between adopting a plant-based diet and promoting the well-being of animals by reducing the demand for animal products.
