Who thinks that the fashion for vegetarianism was born in the nineteenth century, he is very wrong, since the first all known followers of this fashion were Socrates, Pythagoras , da Vinci.
So, why people become vegetarians - this question has two consistent answers. The first is quite simple: it is believed that a vegetarian diet allows you to strengthen your health and prolong your life. And the second answer touches the moral principles, as some people seem to be inhumane to kill animals to meet human needs.
Is vegetarianism useful?
As recent scientific studies have shown, animal fats provoke an increased risk of cancer, heart disease and increased blood sugar levels.
Above were indicated the main diseases, the risk of which is reduced after a year of diligent implementation of the principles of vegetarianism.
Vegetarians live longer?
In itself, this statement is completely erroneous, since vegetarianism itself does not prolong a person's life.
We will have less energy?
There is an opinion that someone who works hard must eat meat. This can not be denied, but there are nuances. The benefit of vegetarianism is also that energy will become just more than usual. The reason for this is a rational diet , which is more easily tolerated by the body and increases the effectiveness of its vital functions.
