Dairy Giant ‘Lactalis Canada’ To Go Permanently Plant-Based

French dairy giant Lactalis has announced that it will be shutting down all dairy products in its Canadian facility starting from September 20th. This huge shift comes as a response to consumers’ demands for saying no to animal cruelty and choosing plant-based as a lifestyle.

While the dairy market has been witnessing a subsequent decline in demand and production – thanks to the increased awareness of what goes on behind the scenes in these facilities – Canada is making waves as one of the most prominent countries at the forefront of saying no to animal cruelty.

Nestled in the town of Sudbury in Canada, Lactalis believes the “long-term volume decline” and “increased costs in the fluid milk market in Ontario” had led them to this decision of bringing a halt to manufacturing. The rising surge of healthier milk alternatives in the region has also pushed this decision ahead.

However, this is just another feather in the brand’s conscious hat – they are already well-known for their Sensational Soy and Lactantia Margarine which are two of the leading plant-based and vegan products in the region today.

 

Established in Vancouver, Canada, the Yoga Health Expo celebrates the joys of good well-being through a holistic approach to the Yogic way of life including Yoga, Veganism, and Vegetarianism in our lifestyle. The celebration shall welcome famous yoga teachers Vancouver, interactive yoga classes Vancouver and a platform for vegan products and vegan food Vancouver.

Clean and Green: Rise of The Vegan Beauty Industry

Projected to reach $21.4 billion by 2027, the vegan beauty market has been considered a niche. Today, our vanity shelves are stocked with cruelty-free labels – thanks to the rising awareness and demand for brand values. Here is how and why the beauty industry is slowly turning to non-animal-based products.

While the clean beauty notion has been around for years, it was truly during the pandemic that consumers turned inwards and began to seek brands that share the same values as them. In a world battling climate change, excessive pollution, and a highly sedentary lifestyle, consumers today hold themselves highly accountable for staying aware of what goes into their favourite products, and eventually on their skin.

 

WHAT MAKES BEAUTY “VEGAN”? 

Much like the vegan diet suggests, vegan beauty is that containing no products derived from animals. The terms cruelty-free and vegan often go hand-in-hand, but it is to note they can’t be interchangeable. Where vegan signifies no animal products have been used in production, cruelty-free denotes the same product has not been tested on any animals.

(Fun fact: the first vegan beauty product can be traced back to 1990 when luxe beauty brand Estee Lauder decided to omit animal products in its formulations.)

Honey, gelatin, glycerin, and retinol are some common ingredients omitted from the vegan beauty shelf. Plant-based alternatives are taking over animal byproducts, and where they don’t, research is doing a commendable job of producing these eco-friendly counterparts.

 

WHY IS VEGAN BEAUTY NEEDED?

  1. It is subtle for all skin types. Vegan products are well known for being less aggravating on the skin with more efficiency.
  2. It is eco-friendly. By reducing the strain on its environment, the vegan beauty industry directly helps conserve the crippling environment with less greenhouse gas emissions.
  3. Supports animal welfare. Lest we say more?

You can take a walk through any major beauty section and be delighted to find not only vegan but plant-based and traditional beauty ingredients in their collections. Where science has its own place in the industry, today the brand value lies in non-animal-based and byproduct formulations. This rising concern for the conservation of the environment is no longer gone unseen.

Beauty giants such as Target, Sephora, and Ulta Beauty are all compliant with this new age of beauty and makeup. Further brands like The Ordinary, Kylie Cosmetics, Milk Makeup, E.L.F Cosmetics, Pai Skincare, Cake Beauty, and many many more are now cult-chosen worldwide for their 100% vegan selections!

A completely conscious beauty dream may still be that – a dream – but the dots are being connected and will soon be a turnover for both brands and consumers. A revolution awaits.

Established in Vancouver, Canada, the Yoga Health Expo 2022 will be a one-day festival celebrating the joys of good well-being through a holistic approach to the Yogic way of life including Yoga, Veganism, and Vegetarianism in our lifestyle. The celebration shall welcome famous yoga teachers Vancouver, interactive yoga classes Vancouver and a platform for vegan products and vegan food Vancouver.

7 Calcium-Rich Foods That Aren’t Dairy

When we think about calcium, dairy and dairy products immediately cover our minds. As rich as they are in said nutrient, they aren’t the only good sources available out there. Take a look!

We all know calcium helps our bodies build and maintain strong bones. Beyond that, calcium is an essential nutrient for proper muscle function, hormonal secretion, and nerve transmission.

As a vegan, you might worry about your calcium intake. But fret no, you can happily take your hands off dairy and its products and place them on organic, plant-based counterparts. Indeed, there are many organic items brimming with calcium that vegans can easily experiment with.

You can curate a calcium-rich vegan diet by including the following foods in your daily intake:

 

SOY

Tofu, edamame, and tempeh – are the usuals of any vegan diet. Besides being rich in protein, fiber, and pretty much every mineral, they contain chock-full of calcium that can make up about 80% of your daily intake.

 

BROCCOLI

Raw or cooked, take your pick. In fact, 2 cups of broccoli contain the same amount of calcium as a single glass of milk, and that too with a better absorption rate – making it much easier for your body to gain the calcium it needs.

 

SPINACH

Any leafy green vegetable is ideal for including in your vegan diet, but spinach is a must-include for its high calcium value. At the same time, its high amount of oxalate can defy its calcium absorption. Oxalate binds calcium which makes it hard to break down for the body, so you should eat it boiled to reap all its benefits.

 

SEEDS

Healthy and flavorful, chia and sesame seeds are two of the foremost sources of calcium that vegans should include in their diet. Known as a superfood, chia packs a lot of punch in its little content and sesame adds taste where it might be lacking.

 

FIGS AND ORANGES

Not many fruits are as rich in calcium as these too. If you’re craving something sweet, figs are perfect to satiate it while you fill your daily calcium intake. Oranges, also amazing sources of Vitamin C, contain a significant amount of calcium that makes it ideal to eat daily.

 

WHITE BEANS

Beans are generally a common sight in the vegan diet, but white beans stand out for being notably high in calcium. While you can savor these in salads and wraps alike, these are equally a treat to eat boiled with the right pinch of salt, lemon, and some veggies.

 

ALMONDS

It’s no news that nuts are a great source of minerals, but almonds specifically store great amounts of calcium in them. Whether you’re a fan of almond butter, spreads, or raw, you can joyfully include this nut in your vegan diet as a healthy binge snack. Just a handful would be perfect.

 

Established in Vancouver, Canada, the Yoga Health Expo 2022 will be a one-day festival celebrating the joys of good well-being through a holistic approach to the Yogic way of life including Yoga, Veganism, and Vegetarianism in our lifestyle. The celebration shall welcome famous yoga teachers Vancouver, interactive yoga classes Vancouver and a platform for vegan products and vegan food Vancouver.

Commit to Compassion

I am challenging the ‘status quo’ of typical and generic businesses and the way they operate by building a ‘People before Profits’ business model. My teachings revolve around creating brands that last forever.”
By Shane Jeremy James

As Founder and CEO of Actions Of Compassion. I had a vision of the exact type of company I wanted to build. I envisioned a global company that was able to enrich the lives of its employees, customers, partners, the less fortunate and whomever it came in contact with. This is when I decided to turn the Actions Of Compassion movement into a brand.

My journey started very early in life. As a youth, I would ask for a subscription to ‘Entrepreneur Magazine’ for my birthday and my deep level of passion for business has continued to this day.

As the years progressed, I continued to sharpen my ability and mindset and gained an advanced mindset over the years by reading over 700 books plus achieving certification in Neuro-Linguistic Programming. As part of my continued business growth, I was then provided an opportunity to travel and work with original Shark Tank TV Show and inventor of the infomercial, Kevin Harrington. I played an integral part in helping build Kevin’s personal brand, consulted in the business and gained shares in some of their companies.

Eager to create real world change, I reached out to my Twitter followers declaring this intention to build a compassion movement by simply asking if anyone wanted to help. The immediate support was amazing with the majority of the replies saying: “Let’s do it!”. I knew that focusing on helping others to make a better world would produce results, but I had no idea how large of a movement he was creating.

By combining my knowledge of over 700 books, certifications in Neuro-Linguistic Programing, execution of compassionate acts and business development and operations the AOC brand is able to focus on a variety of different paths. We focus on making people better so that they will make the world better.

CREATING GOOD WITH ACTIONS OF COMPASSION

At Actions of Compassion, our mission is to influence compassionate acts and change the way businesses are built around the globe. We champion a ‘People before Profits’ culture into a business model. The entire compassion brand is built around systems and processes in order to achieve operational excellence. Our purpose is to create and support people and companies that only do good in the world.

Compassion for me comes from not only acts of kindness towards other people, but also our environment. We can do good by being good, and I realize how important it is to be just as kind to our nature. Yoga & Health Expo is a dedicated platform that talks about veganism, plant-based and organic lifestyle that continues to showcase this need to help the environment and I’m ecstatic to be able to extend my acts of compassion for the world with them.

From encouraging kind actions at The Compassion Kingdom, helping you gain complete control of your mind and future with the Live Your T-shirt (LYT) challenge to helping you get into the elite 3% of businesses that succeed with ‘Humanize Your Business Program’, Acts of Compassion aims to redefine being compassionate.

 

Established in Vancouver, Canada, the Yoga Health Expo 2022 will be a one-day festival celebrating the joys of good well-being through a holistic approach to the Yogic way of life including Yoga, Veganism, and Vegetarianism in our lifestyle. The celebration shall welcome famous yoga teachers Vancouver, interactive yoga classes Vancouver and a platform for vegan products and vegan food Vancouver.

A Grandiose Success! – 8th Yoga & Health Expo 2022

Streaming live from the Simon Fraser University, Canada, the 8th Yoga & Health Expo 2022 ended with a bang on 19th June, Sunday. Accompanied by renowned international speakers and live panel discussions, the event shone a light on the divine journey of natural living, mental health awareness, healthy eating, and the necessity of making the world a cruelty-free place to live through veganism.

“We Are One Step Away From The Virtue of Generosity and Compassion”

 

Established in Vancouver, Canada, the Yoga & Health Expo is a one-day festival celebrating the joys of good wellbeing while enhancing health, happiness, knowledge, and peace in life through a holistic approach to the Yogic way of life including Yoga, Veganism, and Vegetarianism in our lifestyle.

 

Hosted both physically and virtually since 2015, this year’s Zoom webinar welcomed famous yoga instructors, mental health advocates, and stalwarts from the walks of wellness, health, veganism, vegetarianism, and organic living.

 

Leading the day was Jerry Liu – TV show host at TalenvisionTV and Financial Advisor at JMP Group, one of the leading investment and asset management firms, and Shushtikh.

 

YOGA, VEGANISM, COMPASSION AND MORE…

 

Leading holistic fitness guru and one of the most coveted wellness leaders in India, Vesna Peričević Jacob commenced the conversation with a candid throwback to her days of surviving a life-changing injury, arriving in India, and finally finding her calling in Yoga.

 

“My takeaway from these many years of studying, exploring, and teaching yoga is that we can’t live in isolation. If we are a bit more mindful and take things with an open heart and put our egos aside, we can create a much better space,” says Vesna. She added, “Your first and foremost step has to begin from within. Meditation, breathing, sitting quietly, and essentially creating a space for not only your physical but emotional body can carry you far away.”

 

Following suit was Paloma Gangopadhyay – an internationally affiliated celebrity yoga instructor, lifestyle coach, and health culturist. With over 13 years of preaching and teaching yoga with focus on ailment treatment for a healthy lifestyle, Paloma threw light on the changing trends of yoga in the age of globalization – from emerging yoga studios everywhere, to traditional yoga transforming into modern forms like beer and animal yoga, to the importance of posture in practice and connecting the mind-body-soul. “Remember, yoga is from yourself to yourself. It combines science, spirituality, and philosophy. ”

 

Next up was none other than Shane Jeremy James, Founder and CEO of Actions Of Compassion. Geared with his mission to influence compassionate acts and change the way businesses are built around the globe, Shane touched upon his philosophy of People Over Profit, the importance of veganism in being compassionate, and inducing world change by leaving behind separations of race and ethnicity.

 

As he believes, “We’re all one humanity. Everyone’s just walking. When there is no separation between us, that is how we create change in the world. We all love each other, help each other, and spread compassion. Let’s make this world a better place for the next generation and the next and the next. No part is too small.”

 

Ushering toward mental health awareness, life coach, the catalyst of life transformation, and lover of Pranayam yoga, Simi Arora harnessed the power of personal experiences and paired it with science to explain how anyone can bring changes in their minds and life by practicing Yoga. “I always say the three foundations of mental health are relaxation, response, and rejuvenation.”

 

Relaxation: “Yoga is the mind-body connection with your breathing. Dealing with daily anxiety through pranayama will significantly become easier.”

 

Response: “It’s less about the events and a lot about the way we respond to them. Anxiety is a normal feeling but staying there is not healthy.”

 

Rejuvenation: “Rejuvenation is the element where we are not only fixing our mental health but also activating our cognitive abilities. The more you practice yoga, your learning abilities including memory sharpens which is equally essential to our mental health.”

 

Simi further added, “Mental health is the foundation of growth in your life. The most important thing we should be talking about every day is how it relates to yoga because there are treatments for anxiety, depression, and other chronic issues here.”

 

 

Last but not the least, experienced life and business strategist, wellness coach, and Founder of The Human Potential Academy, Matthew Finlin, along with his women-led panelist, sparked a heartfelt interaction on mental-emotional health and mind adversity.

 

“Controlled breath is your superpower when faced with mental adversities,” emphasized Matthew, “You can train your IQ and EQ, but AQ (Adversity Quotient) can be trained only by going through adversity. Each time you go through one, you can train your mind to deal with the situation calmly and effortlessly.”

 

From Matthew’s coveted team, Claire HuiBonHoa, Elle Honeycutt, Jill Nixon, Lily Chan, and Jessica Newman dived deep into their own generational trauma, abuse, low self-esteem, a skewed sense of identity, and finally embarking on their own healing journeys.

 

The 8th Yoga & Health Expo put a spotlight on some of the most important themes that have dominated the wellness sphere – veganism, Yoga, meditation, mental health, and sustainability.

We thank all our panelists, viewers, and readers for accompanying us in this grand success of building a more mindful and conscious world. Here’s to many more!
