Rate: (7 Ratings)
Are you ready to become a vegetarian? Do you need to? This article will help you decide that.
You've got vegetables on the mind. You just love your veggies! You tend to eat lots of vegetables.
You are worried about Mad Cow Disease. Plus all the other stuff added to meat and poultry, such as hormones, antibiotics, etc.
You have been informed that you have high blood pressure. Eating a diet rich in veggies and fiber can lower your blood pressure. Meat does NOT do this.
You have high cholesterol. A vegetarian diet is awesome for treating this. Chicken is high in cholesterol. So is shrimp.
You feel all warm and gushy when reading about PETA.
You love cows but don't want to eat them.
Meat is expensive. I save a ton of money by not buying meat!
You have been very successful in your vegetable garden. You need to eat all those veggies!
You decide you just want to be healthy. This is the way to do it.

on 6/16/2008 Well... PETA still gets on my nerves, but a long family history of bad health and short lived hearts is all the reason I need. Fun article to read.

on 3/19/2008 Love this article! In our case, it was because our 11yo son said so! How can one argue with an 11yo that is health conscious and has a big heart for animals. I was more than happy to oblige though. Step 2 was becoming an increasing concern and pushing us in the direction of vegetarianism anyhow!
