What are the advantages and disadvantages of long-term vegetarianism?
First of all, the benefits of long-term vegetarian diet

Beauty function: Long-term consumption of alkaline plant fruits and vegetables will greatly reduce lactic acid in blood, and naturally it will not produce harmful substances to damage skin health. At the same time, minerals and fibers in plant foods can also remove harmful substances from the blood, and the purified blood can give full play to its role, delivering enough nutrients and oxygen during metabolism, so that various organs of the body are full of vitality and the skin is naturally healthy, shiny, meticulous and elastic.

Compared with ordinary people, vegetarians (vegetarians) have lower blood lipid content, less chance of suffering from heart disease and cancer (cancer food), and are less likely to be overweight. This is because in addition to lifestyle factors, they take in higher cellulose (cellulose food) in their diet. Vegetarians pay more attention to health (healthy food) and don't smoke. Many of them don't drink alcohol or coffee.

Second, the disadvantages of long-term vegetarian diet

Long-term vegetarianism and relative lack of diet structure are easy to cause imbalance of human nutrition supply. Vegetarianism can be divided into complete vegetarianism (that is, complete consumption of plant foods and their products) and lacto-ovo vegetarianism (eggs and dairy products can be selected in addition to plant foods and their products). Comparatively speaking, the dietary nutrition of dairy-egg vegetarian diet is more comprehensive, while vegan diet is more likely to cause serious lack of some essential nutrients in the body.

Extended data

Vegetarianism shows the cultural concept of returning to nature, health and protecting the ecological environment of the earth. Being a vegetarian can not only get natural and pure balanced nutrition, but also experience the pleasure of getting rid of the noise and desire of the city.

Usually, vegetarian food is much cheaper than meat food, and there are few "big dishes" made by vegetarian food. Therefore, vegetarians don't have to pay for "big dishes" and reduce the burden of wallets. Vegetarians are happy.

In the folk, some vegetarian lovers spontaneously set up vegetarian groups. Vegetarian lovers from all walks of life regularly organize some activities to advocate the concept of vegetarianism, with a view to more and more people around them joining the vegetarian army.
