If your health isn’t what it used to be and you want to feel like you did when you were younger, consider a vegetarian or even a vegan diet. Imagine losing weight and having the energy of your childhood.<\/p>\n
Then a healthy vegan, or even a vegetarian diet just might be the answer for you. It certainly is for more and more American adults. <\/p>\n
So, is being vegan or vegetarian healthy? I wondered the same thing 2 years ago when I made the leap. The only thing that put my mind at ease was to do some research on it.<\/p>\n
Let’s explore some reasons together and then you decide for yourself.<\/p>\n
1. Cancer Prevention – a plant-based diet is rich in cancer-fighting substances called phytochemicals. Studies have shown a definite reduction in certain types of cancers such as breast cancer, prostrate, ovarian, colon and lung cancer.<\/p>\n

Are you beginning to see the health benefits to transitioning to a vegetarian or vegan diet? <\/p>\n
Still skeptical, though, as to whether you can make the change or not? Believe it or not, it’s a lot easier than you think.<\/p>\n
Picture eating your favorite things and still being vegan or vegetarian.<\/p>\n
Here’s what you can still eat:<\/p>\n
* vegetarian “ribs” with corn-on-the-cob and baked potatoes<\/p>\n
* vegetarian “crab” cakes with horseradish sauce<\/p>\n
* vegetarian “tuna” salad sandwiches<\/p>\n
* vegetarian Italian “sausage” with saute’ onion and green peppers<\/p>\n

Yes that’s right! And that’s just a sample of how great you can eat with meat and dairy substitutes. <\/p>\n
With meat and dairy substitutes, you’d be surprised how great these meals are.<\/p>\n
Here are some substitute dairy products where the flavor and texture will amaze you:<\/p>\n
* milk (plain and chocolate)<\/p>\n
* cream cheese<\/p>\n
* cream cheese<\/p>\n
* cream cheese<\/p>\n
* parmesan cheese<\/p>\n
* parmesan cheese<\/p>\n
* parmesan cheese<\/p>\n
Substitutes are all well and good, but what about all the protein and calcium you are supposed to be getting on a daily basis? Are you getting enough with a vegetarian, and especially a vegan diet? <\/p>\n
That’s right, QUALITY of protein and calcium is much more important than amount. Wow, I would never have guessed that.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, you will find that all the quality you need is in vegetables, legumes (beans, peas and lentils), grains, fruit and tofu. <\/p>\n
We’ve been sold on the advertising from the meat and dairy industry for years (since 1912). Thankfully, many more people these days are opting to question that advertising and find out the truth for ourselves.<\/p>\n
