As 2023 gets off to a start, January is the perfect time to make a change to your life. As a result, for many, it marks a time to overhaul their diet – more than 629,000 people across the globe taking part in Veganuary last year alone.
Whether you’re wanting to adopt a completely plant-based diet, or are simply looking to eat fewer animal-based products, going vegan isn’t as difficult as it may first seem. What’s more, ditching animal products is far from expensive.
