BENEFITS OF BEING A VEGETARIAN

Here are some of the perks of not eating animal meat:

1. Longer life - according to a study in Loma Linda University, vegetarians live as much as 15 years longer than animal eaters. They are less likely to have heart ailments, cancer and high blood disease.
2. Money-saver - think of how much the price of meat have accelerated for the past years whereas vegetables and fruits can be grown from your own garden.
3. Weight-trimming - on the average, vegetarian people weigh less than meat eaters and are less likely to be obese.
4. Internal vacuum - fibers which are found in vegetables and fruits are good for cleaning up our body.
5. Stronger bones - too much protein consumed by eating animals makes the bone weak.
6. Avoid some food-borne diseases - foot and mouth plus bird flu from chicken meat and beef are some diseases that will be avoided.

These reasons are just the tip of the iceberg... there are a lot more!
