Welcome to Women Around the World - a weekly curation focusing on all things woman-related. From a single (or not) mom sharing her entrepreneurship to your speech on Woman Rights - going all through sacred feminine poems and painting, this is a space focusing on empowering and celebrating the voice and work of all women on Hive. I am Ori (Hive account@cronosclocks) and am interested in helping raise the voice for the women of this Earth.

With a very entertaining and eloquent narrative Hive account@plantstoplanks nos tells with references, details and life experience, how the plant based diet has influenced the lives of the men around her, like her father and husband.

Among the first points she states that changing your diet based on plants doesn't imply losing muscle mass, something that many men believe will happen if they stop eating meat, so she gives some brief advice that demystifies that.

Another of the topics she addresses is erectile dysfunction, providing statistics about it and commenting that this can be prevented by having a healthy diet.

On the other hand, she mentions that many athletes have demonstrated that it is possible to maintain an plant-based diet and to have a high level of performance as an athlete, showing Rich Roll as a reference for this.

Finally, she tells how her father, who was diagnosed with pre-diabetes, changed his meat diet to a plant-based one, something that brought benefits to his health.

She concludes, “it's about time we squash the myth that vegan men are weak or plant-based meals are bland and not filling” and she's right, it's time.

Con una narrativa muy amena y elocuente Hive account@plantstoplanks nos cuenta con referencias, detalles y experiencia de vida, como la dieta a base de plantas ha influido en la vida de los hombres que la rodean, como su padre y su esposo.

Entre los primeros puntos plantea que cambiar tu dieta a base de plantas no implica perder masa muscular, algo que muchos hombres creen que pasará si dejan de comer carne, por lo que da unos breves consejos que desmitifican dicha creencia.

Otro de los temas que aborda es la disfunción eréctil, proporcionando cifras al respecto y comentando que esto puede prevenirse teniendo una dieta saludable.

Por otro lado, menciona que muchos atletas han demostrado que se puede mantener una dieta a base de plantas y tener un alto rendimiento como deportista, mostrando a Rich Roll como referente de ello.

Por último narra a detalle como su padre, quien fue diagnosticado con pre-diabetes, cambió su dieta de carne a una a base de plantas, algo que trajo beneficios para su salud.

Concluye que “Es hora de aplastar el mito de que los hombres vegetarianos son débiles o que las comidas a base de plantas son insípidas y no llenan” Tiene mucha razón, ya es tiempo.
