I am a vegetarian because of my religion and because I believe in vegetarianism. I have been a vegetarian all my life. I have done without meat all my life and never missed it. I do drink milk, but don't eat tuna, chicken or eggs. I am a lacto-vegetarian. I believe in eating food that was not got by killing an animal. I do not like the smell of meat and especially fish.
Why do non-vegetarians have to attack a vegetarian, just because they are not vegetarians? Why the abuse? Vegetarians are not asking you to stop eating your meat...they don't eat meat.
Vegetarians are vegetarians for many reasons -- animal rights, health reasons etc.
Avoiding meat may sound like a bad idea, but most dietary and medical experts agree that a well-planned vegetarian diet can actually be a very healthy way to eat.
Most people think vegetarians eat tuna, chiken and eggs. That is not true. There are different types of vegetarians:
* ovo-vegetarian - eats eggs; no meat
* lacto-ovo vegetarian - eats dairy and egg products; no meat
* lacto-vegetarian - eats dairy products; no eggs or meat
* vegan - eats only food from plant sources
The choice to be a vegetarian is personal. If you have a solid reason to be a vegetarian, go ahead. But, if you have a love for meat, you won't last long as a vegetarian. I don't miss meat or other non-vegetarian stuff, because never had it and never want to.
The long-term health benefits of a vegetarian diet when compared with a non-vegetarian diet are lower prevalence of hypertension (one-third to one-half lower), reduced cholesterol levels, lower rates of cancer (25 to 50% lower), and lower prevalent of obesity, among other benefits.
One study of developmental tests in vegetarian children showed that their mental age was more than a year beyond their chronological age, and their mean IQ scores were well above average.
No matter what others think, I would never want to eat meat, fish, chicken or eggs. I love being a vegetarian.
