American Foundation of Vegan Diet Research 

The American Foundation of Vegan Diet Research is a not-for-profit scientific researcher and educator. We discuss the pros and cons of establishing and maintaining a vegan diet. For example, a vegan diet may be able to: Improve heart health, defend against cancer, and reduce the likelihood of type 2 diabetes according to research. But eliminating all animal products could leave you deficient in calcium, zinc, iron, magnesium, vitamin B12, omega-3, etc. A study was performed in overweight adults, and a low-fat vegan diet led to weight loss, improved body composition, and increased insulin sensitivity. The American Foundation of Vegan Diet Research aims to address the side effects of going Vegan by educating the public about the consumption of necessary vegan and fruit based meals that will prevent individuals from being deficient in the aforementioned.

Over the past few years, vegetarianism—in all of its forms—has gained popularity, especially among the younger generation in the United States. This includes veganism. Numerous studies have demonstrated that a vegan diet (VD) lowers the risk of cardiometabolic diseases, including obesity, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular disease. However, because veganism may result in micro and macronutrient deficiencies, it has also been linked to unfavorable health outcomes, including immune system, nervous system, skeletal system impairments, hematological disorders, and mental health issues. This has a lot to do with the diet of a vegan, the American Foundation for Vegan Diet Research's mission is to support vegans and those interested in converting to a vegan diet so that they may decide to consume certain meals and recipes to mitigate the risk of the side effects of being a vegan and only benefit from the choice.
