VEGANS CAN DANCE THE LONGEST

The time has come when hits and folk music are booming out of the speakers again and we have to struggle with catchy tunes for days. At Oktoberfest, it doesn't take long until the first people are dancing on the table at lunchtime.
After a short time, however, some people have to sit down again because they are already exhausted, while others seem almost tireless.

Guess what separates the tireless dancers from the others? It seems as if the dancers had previously enjoyed a vegan currywurst, while others treated themselves to a fried chicken. Did you know that vegan food keeps you full longer?

A randomized study shows how the satiety of a meat and cheese burger compares to a tofu burger. All participants in the study experienced greater satiety and higher gastrointestinal hormones after eating the tofu burger.

This means: After a vegan meal, you are in the best position to dance and party at the Oktoberfest all day and night!

VEGANS WIN AT HAU DEN LUKAS

Have you ever been put off a vegan diet because you thought vegans were usually weaker? Can you really build muscle without meat or whey protein? Well, just look at a photo of vegan strength athletes. You certainly can't tell the difference from strength athletes who eat meat.

When it comes to building muscle , vegans have no disadvantage compared to other athletes. A study shows that whey and plant protein have the same effect on building muscle after training. The participants achieved the same results no matter what protein they consumed.

What does this have to do with Oktoberfest? It's clear: vegans will win at 'Hau den Lukas' ! The prize will be yours - without you having to eat unhealthy food.

VEGANS CAN RIDE THE SUBWAY RELAXEDLY

Imagine: You're driving home from the Oktoberfest. You're tired. You urgently need to go to the toilet. And then you see it: overcrowded subways, lines that are way too long, pushing and shoving... Shit, it's going to take a lot longer than expected. Everything is tiring and stressful. Drunk people push their way forward, shoving and shouting.

But you feel strangely calm under this chaos . Despite the noise, the full bladder, the screaming people and the huge crowd. Are you really… relaxed? If you think about it, you were totally relaxed even in the equally lively marquee.

It's actually true that vegans generally experience less stress and anxiety!
A study published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information reports how vegans had the least amount of stress in their lives among a group of vegetarians and meat eaters.

Well, if that isn't good news for the Oktoberfest season.

VEGANS ARE BETTER LOVERS

The Oktoberfest, a place of love . Love that often only comes to light after one measure or another. It's a good thing that a vegan diet can lead to an increase in potency. Yes: vegans are better lovers!

How can that be? Quite simply: a plant-based diet helps fight against the narrowing of blood vessels. When blood vessels are narrowed, this not only increases the risk of a heart attack, but also the likelihood of erectile dysfunction.

But that's not all:
Vegans also generally have better sex: according to one study, 72% of vegans are either 'satisfied' or 'very satisfied' with their sex life. In comparison, other people who have other diet types, e.g. B. Follow Paleo or low-carb, less satisfied.

What are you waiting for?!
