A vegan diet consists entirely of whole plants - vegetables, grains, legumes and fruits - with few to no animal products.
Vegans also don't consume any eggs or dairy products because they're made from animals' milk and eggs as well as their body parts such as bones for gelatin.
Vegans avoid the vast majority of processed foods found in grocery stores, including most oils, sugars, flours and anything that's considered "synthetic" and not made from a whole food plant source.
A whole food plant-based diet consists mostly of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and legumes.
