There are several different reasons why going vegan is beneficial, even if it is for a short period. If you go vegan for a few weeks, you are likely to be more encouraged to incorporate more plant-based meals into your diet going forward. It can only be a good thing, as eating a food that is heavy in meat is not good for our bodies, resulting in everything from diabetes and cholesterol to high blood pressure. The trouble is that a lot of people find it too difficult to go vegan.

Fear not, though, as there are a lot of great restaurants and food establishments that are participating in Veganuary in Brighton. With that in mind, read more to discover everything you need to know about Veganuary in this part of the UK.
