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.
