A vegetarian diet provides significant health benefits such as: - Being 1/3 less likely to be obese and living 7 years longer than non-vegetarians. - Having lower risks of diseases like coronary artery disease, hypertension, and some cancers. - Consuming fiber which promotes digestive health and weight control in contrast to meat which lacks fiber. - Obtaining sufficient protein and nutrients without the saturated fats and cholesterol found in meat.

2. • are 1/3 less likely to be obese
• men who don’t eat meat reduce their risk of early death by
50%, women by 30%
• have lower incidence of coronary artery disease,
hypertension, obesity and some forms of cancer.
• tend to eat proportionally more polyunsaturated fat to
saturated fat compared with non-vegetarians

3. • live about 7 years longer than non-vegetarians
• Have more effective immune systems in killing off tumor cells
• average bone loss for a vegetarian woman at age 65 is 18
percent; for non-vegetarian women, it's double that
• eating a lot of vegetables necessarily means consuming fiber,
which pushes waste out of the body; meat contains no fiber

8. the problem with meat is that we don’t ingest the amounts
we should, we exceed them; this excess in eating animal
derived products (specially red meat) causes severe health
problems related to obesity, diabetes, heart problems, and
hypertension
Increase in cholesterol levels,
saturated fat, and therefore
blocked arteries

9. our bodies are made to intake a certain amount of protein, we need it, but when
we exceed in quantity, then our bodies reject it, and that is what happens with
meat diets; we exceed our bodies’ needs and that is not natural. its like an
overflowing glass of water
all this becomes an important factor in obesity because obesity is caused by
the excess of eating in a way that makes our metabolism slow, meat takes a
long time to digest and when you don’t back it up with fiber you don’t clean
your body
this un-functioning metabolic and digestive system lead to weight gain

10. for some reason, many of the world’s most
influential and intelligent people have been
vegetarian, with long life spans

14. there really is no need to eat meat, a vegetarian diet provides the same
amount of nutrients you need in a carnivorous diet, but without the
saturated fats, the levels of cholesterol, and the processed, un-natural
ingredients
it is not necessary to become a full hard-core vegetarian, you can start by
eating meat only twice a week
the possibility of extending your life span, reducing your vulnerability to a
heart attack, diabetes, obesity, and hypertension are things worth
considering, and there are really not many draw-backs
