THIS IS YOUR LIFE - IT'S NOT A PRACTICE RUN - MAKE THE MOST OF IT!
If you are considering making the shift to a
vegetarian lifestyle it is better to do it gradually, in stages. Of
course the ultimate goal is to eliminate red meat from your diet
altogether. In this way you are getting rid of the biggest offender of
all when it comes to diseases of the digestive system and many other
body functions.
Apart from lowering your cholesterol or blood
pressure, you may reduce your risk of cancers including colon, breast,
ovarian and prostate cancer. All of these cancers have been linked in
studies to western style meat-based diets. Vegetarians avoid animal fat
linked to these cancers.
Of course, another benefit of a
vegetarian diet is the abundance of fiber, vitamins and antioxidants
found in fruits, vegetables, legumes and nuts which help in the
prevention of certain cancers and also create a healthy digestive
system. It has also been found that there are higher levels of "natural
killer cells," (specialized white blood cells that attack cancer cells)
in people that follow a vegetarian lifestyle.
In order to make
the change to a healthier way of life through vegetarianism you will
need to educate yourself on the foods you will be including in your new
meals. As mentioned previously, the vegetarian meals will have to be
introduced gradually. Planning and preparing your new meals will be an
exciting experience for you as you will be serving meals that are
wholesome, delicious and life prolonging. The whole family will soon
discover that their new eating habits will have them feeling more
healthier and more energized.
Most vegetarians who are serious
about their eating habits have also eliminated poultry from their diet.
Vegetarians feel strongly about the way chickens are kept in horrible,
crampted and inhumane conditions and laden with hormones and
antibiotics making them taste nothing like chicken should taste with
very little nutritional value.
There is an enormous amount of
information available on the benefits of vegetarianism and the benefits
associated with this lifestyle but now it's up to you to get the ball
rolling by experimenting with a variety of recipes you have discovered
in your research.
Remember, you are creating for yourself and
your family, a new lifestyle and new eating habits that will be a
healthy and life prolonging experience.
