Internet Articles Articles Home Health Articles Financial Articles What is Vegetarianism? Vegetarian Diet? Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet. Albert Einstein Livestock are forced to live in terrible conditions, are treated horribly, and are brutally killed. They are often branded with hot irons, tails cut off, teeth removed, and castrated, all without anesthesia. The animals are malnourished so their meat will be the “right” color and texture. They are injected with harmful antibiotics, forcing the animal to grow up too fast. The rapid growth doesn’t allow enough time for their vital organs to catch up with their body. They are usually kept in a tight wire cage, unable to move. Only more pain—electrocution or a dull blade, ends their pain. Raising livestock causes much damage to the environment. Half of the water in the United States goes to some agricultural production. However, while producing each pound of wheat uses twenty-five gallons, producing each pound of beef uses 2,500 gallons of water. In the early 1800’s, membership in the Vegetarian Society reached over 2,000. Now, it is a more acceptable lifestyle than decades ago. In 1994, more than 12.4 million Americans said they were vegetarians. The number is predicted to rise. Vegetarian Nutrition A vegetarian is not just limited to salad everyday. There are a huge variety of foods that can ensure a vegetarian gets proper nutrition. It is even possible for expecting mothers, young children, teenagers, and pets to be healthy on a vegetarian diet. Below is the vegetarian food pyramid, an important guide for vegetarians to follow. In fact, vegetarians can get every essential nutrient from non-meat foods. Below is a list of nutrients that are harder for a vegetarian to get, and the foods in which they can be found.

Perspectives on Vegetarianism Eating Habits Versus Lifestyle Cancer Cardiovascular Diseases Diabetes and Obesity ... Keeping Our Fruits and Vegetables Safe: Emphasis on Prevention Is all the hype surrounding vegetarianism's health benefits merited? A substantial amount of research suggests it is. Yet, the strength of findings varies: evidence demonstrating lower mortality rates and reduction of chronic diseases such as constipation, obesity and lung cancer is "strong", while data indicating a reduced risk of hypertension, coronary heart disease, adult-onset diabetes and gallstones are considered "good". Evidence linking vegetarianism and reduced risks of breast and colon cancers, diverticular disease, osteoporosis or kidney stones continues to be regarded as merely "fair to poor". Although more people claim to be vegetarian nowadays, their actual numbers in Canada remains elusive. To add to the confusion, vegetarians have become an increasingly diverse lot. Self-proclaimed "vegetarians" now encompass strict plant eaters as well as meat nibblers. Eating Habits Versus Lifestyle Vegetarians tend to be more active, maintain a healthy weight and abstain from smoking, using illegal drugs and drinking alcohol. All these factors have known health benefits. Most health benefits associated with vegetarianism have not been linked to any single dietary or lifestyle factor, although some are most certainly diet-related.

The Many Faces of Vegetarianism News Release - January 1999 (Ottawa) - If the word "vegetarian" makes you think of tofu, carrots and bean sprouts, think again. According to the Ottawa-based National Institute of Nutrition (NIN), self-proclaimed "vegetarians" now encompass a variety of eating patterns, ranging from strict plant eaters to meat nibblers. The changing meaning of the term as well as potential health benefits and risks associated with the lifestyle are the focus of the Institute's latest edition of RAPPORT, a quarterly newsletter. Vegetarian Diversity Surveys indicate that very few self-designated vegetarians are strict plant eaters. Among the 1956 participants to NIN's 1997 Tracking Nutrition Trends (TNT) survey, for instance, the proportion describing themselves as vegetarian was 4%. Of this group, 90% claimed to drink milk and over 70% reported eating eggs, fish or seafood. More surprising still are the 20% who claimed to eat red meat! So what gives? According to NIN's President, Suzanne Hendricks, it's all about choices: "Health conscious Canadians are choosing more meatless meals, because they perceive them as yet another nutritious option to add to their mixed diets. This can be great if it leads to greater consumption of meat alternatives, such as legumes. Some trendy vegetarians, however, may fail to put the right emphasis on a proper balance of plant foods and dairy products." Health Benefits You don't have to restrict yourself to plant products to reap the benefits of vegetarianism: an increasing number of researchers believe it is not so much the absence of animal products as the abundance of plant food on the plate that is important.

Women eating red meat daily ran over twice the risk of developing colon cancer than women eating red meat less than once a month.

Vegetarianism Nutritional pros and cons of Meat-based and Vegetarian Diets Most individuals who have switched to a vegetarian lifestyle at some point in their lives (who weren't born into it), have done so following some form of perceived enlightenment, or after the realization that consuming animal products is either anti-religious, anti-earth (to save the planet), against animal rights, or that it is simply unhealthy.  I have been testing and treating a large number of vegetarian patients over more than two decades, so I'm presenting arguments for and against the consumption of animal-based products from a health -point of view. Contrary to vegan-based reviews or commentaries, people following a strict vegetarian diet are not healthier than their omnivorous counterparts.  In fact, on average , they suffer from as many, or more medical complaints as compared to non-vegetarian individuals, who include meat or eggs in their diet. There is absolutely no question that the average person does best health-wise by consuming a mixed diet that is as fresh, and hopefully as unprocessed as possible.  Beyond that, an individual assessment

49. Vegetarianism The key to healthy vegetarianism. People following a vegetarian diet should become informed about the principles of good nutrition. http://www-health.concordia.ca/healthEd/key toHealth/vegetarianism.html

Vegetarianism A diet composed mainly or entirely of plant foods is increasing in popularity amongst many groups of people including students. One reason is that vegetarian diets have been associated with increased levels of health and wellness. The benefits of a vegetarian diet are numerous. They include decreased risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, stoke, obesity, cancer, diabetes and digestive disorders. These benefits have been linked to the higher proportion of fibre, vitamins, minerals, complex carbohydrates and antioxidants in the typical vegetarian diet. Lower levels of fat especially saturated fat and cholesterol are also linked to the benefits. It's no wonder, then, why more and more people are opting for a vegetarian diet. Vegetarian diets do not necessarily exclude all animal sources of food. Vegan is the name given to those who eat only plant foods. But some who call themselves vegetarians also eat dairy products, eggs, fish, chicken or even small amounts of beef (semi-vegetarians). Depending on the amount of animal foods in their diet, vegetarians can face nutritional challenges in meeting adequate daily intakes of calories, protein, vitamins or minerals. Since some vitamins, minerals and other nutrients are absent or more difficult to absorb from plant foods, vegetarians may need to pay increased attention to meal planning. Nutritional challenges for vegetarians Getting enough calories and getting adequate amounts of vitamin B12, vitamin D, calcium and iron are the main nutritional challenges facing vegetarians. Plant eaters also need to examine their sources of protein.

Among the many reasons for being a vegetarian are health, ecological, and religious concerns, dislike of meat, compassion for animals, belief in non-violence, and economics. The American Dietetic Association has affirmed that a vegetarian diet can meet all known nutrient needs. The key to a healthy vegetarian diet, as with any other diet, is to eat a wide variety of foods, including fruits, vegetables, plenty of leafy greens, whole grain products, nuts, seeds, and legumes. Limit your intake of sweets and fatty foods. Making the Change to a Vegetarian Diet Many people become vegetarian instantly. They totally give up meat, fish and poultry overnight.
