However, this often leads to a lag in the nutrition our bodies *really* need. The benefits of a plant-based diet range from boosting your immune system to improving your gut health. You don’t need to completely overhaul your current eating habits – making a few changes is always the best way to start. Here are 10 plant-based munchies to help you begin your journey to healthier habits!
