Want that promotion? Say goodbye to meat! New research shows
that veganism
improves your overall work life
.
According to a recent article in Fitbie, the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine commissioned
a study of more than 100 Geico employees who made the switch and underwent monitoring
for four months. Researchers
found a 10-pound weight loss average and “improvements in overall productivity,
anxiety, depression, fatigue, and general health in workers following a vegan
diet as compared to workers that said “‘no thanks’ to tofu.
In order to promote a positive view of veganism, Geico offered easy access
to new plant-based foods in its cafeteria and brought on nutrition experts to
provide employees with delicious cruelty-free recipes during their lunch breaks.
Luckily,
going vegan these days is a snap! There is a
slew of chain restaurants offering
delicious plant-based options and every supermarket is stocked with inexpensive
and healthy vegan staple items.
