It\u2019s no secret that global culture is making a much-needed shift toward sustainability. Our Earth needs this, and so many trends are pushing us in this direction.<\/h6>\n
However, you might be wondering if these trends also favour better health \u2013 in other words, what are the benefits of these trends beyond being more eco-friendly?<\/h6>\n
Let\u2019s examine some sustainable health trends gaining traction in the last year\u202fand weigh in on how they can benefit your health, too, or if there is more to be desired.\u202f\u00a0<\/span><\/h6>\n
PLANT-BASED DIETS<\/span><\/b><\/h5>\n

The push for plant-based eating has steadily increased over the last decade. Initially focused on animal welfare, it later highlighted potential health benefits and, more recently, the lowered carbon footprint of such diets.<\/p>\n

The rise in popularity of plant-based meat, egg, and dairy replacements has taken markets by\u202fstorm. But is plant-based eating an answer to better health for North Americans?<\/p>\n

The human body is unique, and the nourishment necessary for thriving health varies from person to person. While some individuals may experience health benefits from a plant-based diet, others might find it detrimental to their well-being.\u202f\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no one-size-fits-all approach, but it\u2019s worth noting that many plant-based products on the market are highly processed. It\u2019s best to stick to wholefoods, whether plant-based or otherwise.<\/p>\n

NATURAL BEAUTY AND CLEANERS<\/span><\/b><\/h5>\n

Many people are becoming aware of the harmful effects of exposure to toxins in personal care and household cleaning products. This is a great trend, as these products can significantly impact the endocrine system and cause hormonal imbalances that wreak havoc on\u202four health. Natural products also help lower the toxic load sent into our ecosystems, making it\u202fa\u202fwin-win situation.<\/p>\n

ACTIVE COMMUTING<\/b><\/h5>\n

We\u2019ve seen a steady push to de-incentivize vehicle use to reduce carbon emissions. The trend of taking public transit, walking, biking, or even swimming (hello, Switzerland!) to work has been taking off.<\/p>\n

This is a fantastic shift in increasing our daily physical activity, especially given the rates of\u202fsedentary lifestyles within our culture. Get out and get moving for yourself and for the planet!<\/p>\n

Reusable water bottles\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h5>\n

The virality of the Stanley\u202fCup has made waves in the already rising popularity of reusable water bottles. One reusable bottle saves 156\u202fplastic bottles from entering landfills each year. This is\u202fgreat because people tend to drink more water when they are carrying a bottle with them. Hydration is a cornerstone for good health in all of the body systems, and skipping out on plastic bottles also has the added bonus of lower BPA exposure. Just make sure you are choosing a\u202fBPA-free bottle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

GROW YOUR OWN OR SHOP LOCALLY<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h5>\n

Since\u202f2020, we\u2019ve seen a rise in people experimenting with growing their produce in gardens, plant boxes, or even hanging baskets. This is also coupled with an increased draw toward shopping locally from farmers\u2019 markets. This is fabulous as the carbon footprint here is reduced because of the decreased need for fuel to transport goods. Homegrown and small-scale farm-grown\u202fproduce also tends to be more nutrient-dense and lower in pesticides, which lightens the toxic load on the body.<\/p>\n

Overall, what is good for the Earth is also suitable for us. We are a part of nature, and it is high time we started living in ways that are harmonious with the planet.<\/h6>\n
