Hungy Pumpkin team

Hello dear readers!

Hungry Pumpkin was established in 2019 by a pharmacist Samo Kreft and biologist Darja Kolar. A bit later an etnobotanist Karsten Fatur joined. We all shared at least one common thing and that is a passion of healthy lifestyle based more on vegan food. Many more guests helped us to create this web site and FB site. In recent years, the most active members are Samo Kreft and Nataša Sivec.

In the age of the internet and social media you can hear many things about this topic and not all are reliable. We believe that vegan diet can be quite simple, varied, tasty, and affordable. And we know that some doctors and nutritionists have strong opinions when it comes to vegan lifestyle. One of them is about protein and the inadequate ratio of amino acids in vegan protein sources, another one is that the amount of fiber consumed in vegan diets is too high … That is why we are going to tackle these assumptions head-on with scientific arguments and concrete calculations to break down some inaccurate stereotypes surrounding vegan eating. 

We arwe happy to share simple vegan recipes and some serious science with you. Don’t be afraid to reach out with your questions and comments, and don’t forget to look us up on social media.
