New! – a vegetarian diet Diet by Ann Vege already available in Diet & Training by Ann application!

I know there are vegetarian diet fans here. You’ve asked me many times about a diet for your preferences. And I promised there would be one. I just couldn’t say when exactly, but this day has come. It is today 🙂 Vegetarian menus are already available in my Diet & Training by Ann application.

If you’ve never tried a vege diet before and you’re not sure if it’s good for you – now is the best opportunity to check it out! If you decide the classic option suits you better, you can come back to it in two clicks!

The menus include original recipes that come from my culinary experiments ?. You will get complex carbohydrates from rye bread, groats and other gluten-free products – we cut out wheat and the like. I have also eliminated cow’s milk. The right calcium supply will be provided by cheese and fermented milk drinks (such as kefir, yogurt, or buttermilk). You will learn to use the alternatives, like plant-based drinks and goat dairy. Eggs and legumes, along with dairy, will supply the right amount of protein.

You will cut out high-processed foods, GMO products, fizzy drinks, fast-foods, ready-made sweets full of simple sugars and trans fats. You will replace them with fresh, season fruit and vegetables, which you can prepare in lots of interesting ways. You will also make use of natural spices and herbs for their diverse flavour. The menus include only healthy fats, such as coconut oil, ghee, olive oil and other plant oils.

You can use the vege menu regardless of your goals – whether you wish to lose excess kilograms, gain or maintain weight. Diet by Ann Vege vegetarian diet will be a good and tasty choice also when your goal is to build muscle mass 🙂 That’s because you decide on your goal individually, before the diet is personalized.

Remember that my menus are based on the Triangle of Power and they support 3 realms – the body, the mind and the libido. Harmony between them guarantees better well-being and health improvement. You are the one to decide which sphere you want to influence in particular.

When you choose Diet by Ann, you get the opportunity to change particular products, meals, or even the whole menus. You also get access to online nutrition advice and will be able to generate your personal shopping list. All these facilities make your goal much easier to achieve. You will get used to new habits step by step. You will also feel the power of good food. As a result, you will notice a significant improvement in your health – both mental and physical.
