Why you should eat a Vegetarian Diet

Vegetarian foods can provide your body with all the nutrients that it needs. You do not need the saturated fat, cholesterol, and contaminants that are found in meat. Vegetarian foods help defend us against heart disease, diabetes, obesity, strokes, and several types of cancer. Vegetarians also have stronger immune systems and, on average, live several years longer than meat eaters.

Fruits and Vegetables are high in antioxidants that protect our cells from damage by free radicals. Antioxidants help reduce the signs and effects of ageing.

Lower cholesterol - Good fats in nuts and seeds in vegetarian recipes help to lower bad LDL cholesterol and raise good HDL cholesterol. Vegetarians tend to eat more soya protein which contains iso flavones which also lower cholesterol. On average, vegetarians have 14% lower cholesterol levels than meat eaters.

Lower risk of blood clots - Iso flavones in soya protein reduce the risk of blood clots.

Studies have shown that vegetarian women are at a lesser risk of osteoporosis.

vegetarian food is lower in saturated fats and calories. Vegetarians tend to be slimmer than meat eaters because of this.

Studies have shown that plant based diets help to protect against many types of cancer.

Getting Enough Protein

Your body needs enough protein to break down into amino acids to build muscle, repair tissue, and make enzymes, hemoglobin, and immunoglobulins. Vegetable proteins will not provide you with a complete protein. The essential amino acids that your body can`t manufacture you have to get from your food. To do this you need to eat vegetables with rice, corn, or whole grain bread. Examples of balanced protein are rice and beans, pasta with milk or cheese or a peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat bread.

Why I Started This Website

green_fairy_flying

One evening I was wondering what my next website should be. When I went to sleep that night a guide came and told me what to do. In my dream a flying fairy said I need to create a site about eating better. She said that we should not eat our friends the animals. She looked very much like the flying fairy to the left.

She said my next website should be about vegetarian cooking. If she was going to go to the trouble to fly all the way from fairyland just to tell me this, then I had better do it. I went directly to GoDaddy and bought the name eatbetterfood.com and started the site that morning. The flying fairy still comes to me in my dreams and gives me advice about what she wants me to do with the site. I do what she says, hope you like it.
