By Dr. Annika Waldmann Growing in popularity, vegetarianism has gone mainstream. Adopting a vegetarian lifestyle is not only justifiable on religious, moral or ecological grounds. Growing scientific evidence is confirming that a vegetarian diet is a well balanced diet for human beings. The remarkable health benefits of a vegetarian diet are demonstrated by a multitude of scientific and medical studies and range from lower blood pressure, control of diabetes, prevention of cancer to an overall feeling of well-being. The following article is taken from a Powerpoint presentation given by Dr Waldmann. Definitions of Vegetarianism •Dietary regimen that excludes foods being produced from dead animals. •Vegare (lat.) = to grow, to live Reasons for Being a Vegetarian Religion •Slaughter is a sin •Eating meat is a religious taboo •Mercy to animals •Renunciation of meat = asceticism Ethics • Killing = Wrong • Animals rights • Sympathy with animals • Avoiding meat as a strategy to solve world hunger problems Facts on Vegetarianism Health • Maintaining health • Losing weight • Prevention of certain diseases • Healing of diseases • Increasing physical and brain performance Ecology • Saving global climate • Avoiding animal mass keeping There is often more than one reason.
