You can observe World Vegetarian Day even if you are not a vegetarian. How about giving up meat for the day and seeing how you get along? There are tons of delicious meatless options available on this day, including cheese pizza, veggie burgers, tofu, and carrot sticks. Furthermore, you never know it might encourage you to skip meat on other days in the future.

There are several advantages to giving up meat. You have advantages for your body first. A vegetarian diet usually consists of ingesting a lot of the healthy foods that are not normally found in meat. This comprises an abundance of phytochemicals, magnesium, unsaturated fat, vitamins E and C, folic acid, and and fiber. This translates into a healthier weight, lower blood pressure, reduced risk of heart disease, and also lower cholesterol.

As if that weren’t already enough, becoming a vegetarian has several positive environmental effects. This not only saves animal lives but also fossil fuels. For instance, 78 calories of fossil fuel are needed to produce one calorie of beef! A great deal of people are unaware of this. For soybeans, one cow calorie requires only one fossil fuel calorie. This indicates that it is 780 percent more productive than producing beef.

 

The World Vegetarian Day’s past

The North American Vegetarian Society (NAVS) created World Vegetarian Day in 1977 in an effort to raise awareness of the health and social advantages of adopting a vegetarian diet and to support the vegetarian way of life. Humans are omnivores, therefore we can live perfectly well without consuming any animal products or meat, but are there any advantages beyond just feeling good about yourself?

It turns out that the answer is definitely yes. When you are mindful of the amount of fat you consume, a vegetarian diet is far healthier than one that includes animal products. You may fully prevent cardiovascular disease, the biggest cause of mortality in the United States alone, with a low-fat vegetarian diet.

Vegetarians not only cut out animal fat and cholesterol from their diets (this is especially true for vegans), but they also eat more fiber and antioxidants, which are well known to prevent cancer! The impact of vegetarianism on our health is so great that statistics have proven it can extend our lives by 13 years of good health.

Need more proof? Just look at Okinawa, where the people with the longest life-span in the world live. Guess what their diet primarily consists of?
