Vegan 22-Day Challenge – Journey for Jay-Z and Beyonce
What is the Vegan 22-Day Challenge?
Jay-Z and Beyonce recently finished their 22-day vegan challenge – a health initiative developed by exercise guru Marco Borges. The vegan challenge is a 22-day commitment to avoid all foods containing animal products. That includes abstaining from meat, dairy, eggs and even honey for 22 days. The theory behind the 22-day challenge is that modern psychologists believe it takes 21 days to break a bad habit or form a new one. According to Jay-Z’s blog, the celebrity couple took the challenge as part of a “spiritual and physical” journey that began on December 3 and ended on Christmas day.
Why Go Vegan?
Choosing to stick to a vegan diet can provide many health benefits. A vegan diet consists of vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, legumes and whole grains – all plant-based foods that are naturally high in fiber, low in cholesterol and loaded with nutrients. Going vegan can work to reduce the risk of heart disease, lower your cholesterol and help you achieve and maintain a healthy weight. With all of these health benefits, the real question just might be, “Why NOT go vegan?”
