Publisher's Synopsis
The Pegan diet combines elements of paleo and vegan diets. It includes meat like fish, poultry, or beef, as well as plant-based foods like fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes.
The Complete Pegan Diet CookbookThe Pegan diet was created by Dr. Mark Hyman and is a blend of two diets that have proven benefits in many ways. The Paleo diet is based on the foods eaten by our hunter-gatherer ancestors, while the vegan diet eliminates animal products entirely. Most modern diets contain elements from both of these approaches. Native Americans ate what they could hunt, fish, and gather until European settlers arrived with livestock and processed foods like white flour and sugar. The Pegan diet combines these two eating styles to give you what you need for optimum health. The Pegan diet encourages simplicity and sustainability. It's not about trying to be the healthiest person possible but instead eating the way that works for you at this moment in time. This is a lifestyle that allows you to live a healthy life without being obsessive about what you eat or how much.
