from:You want to gain health and lose weight with a vegetarian diet? But you are too anxious to do it due to myths about vegetarian diets. like, you cannot get enough protein, iron or calcium. It's boring rabbit food. and so on...
Here's some good news:
You certainly can get complete nutrition from a vegetarian diet. It is not hard and you can start today.
Take three steps to see yourself on the way to a healthier life. It’s simple:
1) Know why you want to try a vegetarian diet
2) Get the right information without being overwhelmed by it
3) Then… do it.
A good vegetarian diet is indeed a good thing. But as with everything an unbalanced one is not.
Just any low calorie and vegetarian recipe or easy vegetarian recipe will not do.
If you have been a meat eater for many years your body may need to adjust to a supply of minerals that are of different proportions to vegetarian diets. That is why it is important to set out on the road of vegetarianism with some knowledge about its benefits and pitfalls.
But first, if you want to commit yourself to anything, it is important to know why you'd do that. No motivation, no perseverance.
Here are some reasons that motivate millions of people to eat their vegetarian meal today:
Weight loss Many people take to a vegetarian diet or specifically a low calorie and vegetarian recipes regime because they think a "carrot-and-lettuce" diet will slim them down. They may see vegetarianism as a kind of punishment for a body that has gone off the rails. Consequently, unless they are lucky and stumble across information that shows them how delicious a true vegetarian diet can be, they are at risk of returning to their old diets as soon as some weight has come off. A balanced vegetarian diet may indeed give enduring weight loss benefits.
Health reasons Studies suggest that vegetarians have a significantly reduced risk of death from heart disease (about 30%) than meat eaters, including those who eat fish and poultry. As the iron in meat is more available to our bodies than in plants, it is more likely that iron-overload occurs in our blood as meat eaters age. This is a problem as high iron levels are associated with cancer risk. Some studies show a reduced cancer risk for vegetarians. But because many vegetarians also exercise, do not smoke and do not drink much alcohol, that benefit is a bit hard to pin down. Do it all, and be sure to be healthy! There are many more health reasons to go vegetarian.
Religious reasons Some religions proscribe a vegetarian diet. Reasons can include reaping good karma but some also maintain a healthy body so their spiritual life may have better chances to flourish.
Environmental reasons Meat production is many times more energy-intensive than is growing of plant food. Great swathes of forest land have been cut to run cattle and the grazing of cattle on marginal lands causes soil erosion. In our overpopulated world where our use of energy has already outstripped the earth’s capacity for renewal, overemphasis on meat consumption is self-destructive. A vegetarian diet is an enjoyable way to do your bit about global warming. You'll consume less energy!
Your reasons There are many reasons for going vegetarian. Be clear in your mind what that reason is and use that as your driving force.
Of course there are unhealthy vegetarian diets. A balanced diet is the key. Having some basic knowledge about what foods you should include in your vegetarian diet is an essential starting point.
Vegetarian food can be absolutely delicious. Do it right from the start and you won’t look back. And… importantly, a vegetarian diet is easier on on the planet and your wallet too!
Here’s to your health!
