Some studies have pointed out that human digestive system, like cattle, horses and sheep, is more suitable for vegetarianism. Because animal fat in meat contains a lot of saturated fatty acids, long-term consumption is easy to cause hypercholesterolemia and cardiovascular diseases. At the same time, there is the possibility of cancer. Being a vegetarian can purify the blood, prevent constipation and hemorrhoids, and calm the mood, beauty beauty. Compared with meat, vegetarianism has many benefits in health care. No wonder vegetarianism is so popular. It has become a healthy way for contemporary people to stay healthy. What are the benefits of vegetarianism from a health point of view? First, vegetarian diet can reduce the occurrence of vascular diseases, because it does not contain harmful substances that pose a threat to the cardiovascular system. Recently, a research report published in the United States confirmed that the blocked coronary artery can be reopened through comprehensive measures such as vegetarian diet, exercise, drug treatment and reducing mental stress, without relying on surgery; Vegetarian food alone can achieve the same goal. And in the next ten years, there will be no coronary artery disease leading to sudden heart attack; However, people who can't stick to a vegetarian diet will have a serious recurrence of coronary artery disease. Second, a plant-based diet, including whole grains, beans, vegetables and fruits, can protect the human body and reduce the chance of cancer. Recent research shows that soybean can reduce the incidence of breast cancer, probably because phytoestrogens contained in soybean can reduce the occurrence of tumors. Protein inhibitors contained in soybeans can prevent and avoid the occurrence of colorectal cancer, oral cancer, lung cancer and liver cancer, which may be due to the role of anticancer agents such as isoflavones. Phytosterols and saponins in plant foods can also reduce the risk of colorectal cancer. Vegetarian diet can reduce the incidence of cancer, especially rectal cancer and colon cancer: this is because food contains a lot of cellulose, which can accelerate intestinal peristalsis, facilitate defecation, discharge harmful substances in feces in time, and reduce the damage of harmful substances to intestinal wall. According to American data, the cancer incidence of vegetarians is 20% to 40% lower than that of meat eaters. Thirdly, vegetarianism can reduce the burden on the kidneys: for patients with renal insufficiency, vegetarianism can play a role in making the kidneys [rest]: changing to vegetarianism for patients with nephropathy, together with the intake of dairy products, can not only reduce the burden on the kidneys, but also kill two birds with one stone without reducing the intake of protein. Fourth: Vegetarian diet is also good for preventing osteoporosis. As we all know, the elderly [especially postmenopausal women] advocate eating more calcium-containing foods in order to prevent osteoporosis, and vitamin C is beneficial to the absorption of calcium. Many plant foods [such as green vegetables, tomatoes and some fruits] contain vitamin C. Abundance: On the contrary, animal foods sometimes deprive the body of its ability to use calcium. Therefore, it is suggested that vegetarians drink some milk to supplement the calcium needed by the human body, which will help to increase the density of bones. Fifth, many studies show that a healthy vegetarian diet can reduce chronic degenerative diseases, such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes and obesity. Tofu, for example, not only has lower calories and less saturated fatty acids than meat with the same weight, but also contains no cholesterol at all (only animal foods contain cholesterol), so vegetarians have lower blood cholesterol, and dietary fiber can lower cholesterol, which is conducive to preventing cardiovascular diseases. Plant-based food is bulky, low in calories and full, which is also beneficial to control weight and prevent obesity. Plant food is rich in fiber, which can delay the absorption of glucose in small intestine and help diabetic patients control blood sugar. References: 1.
