The Great Debate: Why Go Vegetarian?
Most scoff at the idea of becoming a vegetarian. But say there is a legitimate reason to laugh at the idea of embracing a vegetarian life style. What would that reasoning be?
Maybe some find it funny that a vegetarian diet has been proven to reduce the risk of heart disease, heart attack, stroke and a number of other cardiovascular problems. Maybe because those who choose a vegetarian lifestyle are less prone to obesity and diabetes?. Or possibly that going vegetarian can actually prove more environmentally friendly than owning a hybrid vehicle?
I guess when you look at reasons like these, there is a wide range of topics to find amusing. But to be honest, I’d rather be laughed at and reduce my chance of having any of the above mentioned illnesses.
A vegetarian diet is not a concept that should be quickly shrugged off. If you gave it a chance, I’m confident you’d find it to be one of the healthiest and most rewarding aspects of your life.
