Pho A.V - Maybe you don't know health benefits of Vegetarian - Vietnamese Restaurant 85032
A growing number of younger people are adopting a vegetarian diet, as the Gallup poll shows.
They may do this because:
- it brings health benefits
- it is a more ecologically sustainable option
- they have concerns about the treatment of animals
- it is part of a broader lifestyle choice
Some people also avoid meat and animal products for religious reasons.
Here are some ways in which avoiding meat products can enhance a person’s health.
Weight: Switching to a vegetarian diet may help a person lose weight, at least in the short-term, according to a 2016 meta-analysis. Scientists need to carry out longer-term controlled studies to understand how a vegetarian diet might affect weight.
Cholesterol: A systematic review published in 2015 concluded that people who follow a vegetarian diet are likely to have lower overall cholesterol levels.
Cancer: A study of data for nearly 70,000 people found evidence that the incidence of cancer overall was lower among vegetarians than non-vegetarians. The authors suggested that a non-meat diet may offer some protection from cancer.
Heart health: Authors of a 2014 study found a lower risk of cardiovascular disease in people who followed a vegetarian diet in India. Studies in western countries had already produced similar results.
Diabetes: People who follow a vegetarian diet may be less likely to have type 2 diabetes. One reason for this may be a higher intake of whole grains, fruits, vegetables, legumes, and nuts, and a lower intake of unhealthful fats.
These benefits will not automatically happen when a person stops eating meat. Alongside a vegetarian diet, people need to make sure they:
- get the right number of calories
- focus on a variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains
- limit their intake of processed foods and alcohol
- avoid unhealthful fats and added sugar and salt
- engage in an overall healthful lifestyle, with plenty of exercises
- avoid smoking
