Term “vegan”
The term “vegan” is for some time now on everyone’s lips, but actually has a long history:
It goes back to the Englishman Donald Watson (1920-2005), who founded the Vegan Society in 1944.
Veganism is an out of the vegetarian emerged setting, lifestyle and nutrition. Vegans avoid all foods of animal origin, any use of animals and animal products such as leather, wool, down feather, silk, furs, cosmetics and foods with animal ingredients. Vegans have different motives for their decision: animal protection, rights and ethics, religion, environmental protection and world food problems are just some of them.
In many cases, the term “vegan” equated with waiver of non-vegans. But this is not so. Modern health food shops, organic food retailers and health retailer are offering a wide variety of vegan products, from which – even with a little imagination and effort – can conjure up delicious, balanced and interesting menus.
Whether a vegan diet is now very healthy or unhealthy is currently actively discussed in many circles. It only seems clear that most of the experts believe that a vegan lifestyle can occur a B12 deficiency.
The tradition of producing vegetarian and vegan food is at MORGA about the same age as the term “vegan” itself. Since 1930, MORGA develops and manufactures pure vegetarian, and often also vegan food, in excellent quality. The assortment of MORGA offers a wide range of rich and varied alternatives to meat consumption. Moreover MORGA provides in its dietary supplement line specifically attuned capsules for vegans, with which a possible B12 deficiency can be prevented or remedied.
In future, a “vegan” label will be placed on Morga products that cannot be clearly recognized as a vegan product. This can be found on all newer products already on the back of the package. Therefore, to both advisors on the sales front as well as the vegan customers, the choice of suitable products should be facilitated.
