So why become a vegetarian?

So why become a vegetarian?
Generally speaking a lot of research has 
been done which shows that a vegetarian 
diet once followed correctly can lead to a
much healthier lifestyle. 
The top 5 reasons are; vegetarians have 
much lower cholesterol than meat eaters because their meals are typically lower in saturated fat; vegetarians have much lower blood pressure than non-vegetarians as there
is a general reduction in sodium intake; less calcium is lost with a vegetarian diet which 
will in turn prevent osteoporosis, gallstones 
and kidney stones, this is because consuming large amounts of animal protein (meat) encourages the loss of calcium
from the bones quicker than that of plant
foods; a vegetarian diet helps prevents
cancer because they eat less fat and more 
fibre and because they have a high intake 
of vegetables or plants that contain cancer-fighting substances; an individual on a vegetarian diet have a better chance of controlling diabetes because their meals
are based largely on whole grain, fruit and vegetables with peas and beans which is a
diet low in fat and sugar giving them control over their diabetes.
Try to change your eating habits to 
'the vegetarian way'..
Start by eating vegetarian meal three days
per week.
Make it interesting, so try to include a new 
food into your vegetarian diet.
Try using  mushrooms, so that you are 
making replacements in your tried recipes.
There is an increase in awareness of the importance of healthy food, many people 
are also becoming vegetarian because it matches the kind of low fat, high fiber diet recommended by dieticians and doctors.
A vegetarian diet is better than a non-vegetarian diet for our all-round health.
Simple vegetarian cooking is the new ways to provide your family appetizing food with a wonderful aroma and minus any health risks involved.
 Select whole grain buns as the Vegetarian burger and also choose vegetables to add to this burger and add vegan mayonnaise....
Vegetables, they are a vital source of essential nutrients and vitamins.
