The benefits of vegetarianism

1, lighter. Vegetarians are lighter than meat eaters because they reduce unnecessary fat.

2, reduce the risk of cancer. Studies have pointed out that meat is closely related to colon cancer.

3, there is no concern about parasites. Several parasites are transmitted to humans through infected meat.

4. Long life. According to nutritionists, vegetarians live longer than non-vegetarians. People in northern Pakistan and Indians in central Mexico are primitive vegetarians, and their average life expectancy is amazing. Buddhist monks also live long because of food.

5, reduce cholesterol content. Vegetarians always have less blood cholesterol than meat. If there is too much cholesterol in the blood, it will often cause blood vessel blockage and become the main cause of diseases such as hypertension and heart disease.

6. Reduce the burden on the kidneys. Waste from various higher animals and human bodies is brought to the kidneys through blood. Once the meat used by meat eaters contains animal blood, the burden on the kidneys becomes heavier.

7, easy to store. Plant protein is usually easier to store than animal protein.

8. The price is low. Vegetable protein is cheaper than meat.

9, in line with ecological principles. The land needed to produce one pound can produce ten pounds of plant protein. Many ecologists predict that the population explosion will force the whole world to be vegetarian.

10, with rich changes. Vegetarian housewives often find that using vegetable protein can cook excellent and delicious dishes better than using ordinary meat, and the cooking methods are varied, which can arouse good appetite.
