Lent is the name of food eaten by Buddhists and vegetarians, and there is a custom of eating Lent to read Buddha. Fasting refers to the secularization of monks and nuns, or vegetarians who are no longer vegetarian, which is called secularization of fasting. Note that there is also the saying of fasting. If there is such a custom in some places, fasting for three days means being a vegetarian.

Second, the introduction of vegetarians

Although vegetarianism is a good way to maintain health, it is also very beneficial to health. However, reasonable vegetarian nutrition care can also be harmful to health. Vegetarians are prone to infertility. It is understood that 1/6 of infertile couples are all caused by vegetarian habits. In addition, vegetarians are prone to gallstones, because vegetarians consume more unsaturated fat, which invisibly improves the sensitivity of insulin and leads to gallstones.

Vegetarians are also prone to tooth decay. Some fast food vegetables contain acidic substances that corrode teeth, such as eggplant, onion and pepper. These foods containing acidic substances will be more concentrated after high-temperature cooking, which will do more harm to teeth.
