Everyone should become vegetarian because they do not need to eat meat to have a healthy diet. Do you agree or disagree?
Food plays an essential role in a life of an individual. Some consider that everyone should eliminate
meat
from their nutriment and take up a vegetarian lifestyle. Few publics believe veggie foodstuff as compare to non-veg as it can cause harm to the body; However
, I cannot entirely agree with the given statement that everyone should adopt a meat
-free diet
to be healthy. In this
essay, I intend to support my opinion with my arguments.
Firstly
, a Vegetarian diet
is not a balanced diet
, and no study guarantees absolute health by eating vegetarian alone. In other words
, in some professions like wrestling and boxing, where daily calories needed are much higher than the other people, this
amount of energy can only be taken from a diet
based on meat
. Therefore
, relying totally upon vegetation for food is not possible for all. For example
, a fish contains ten times more amino acids as compared to 50 grams of almonds.
On the contrary
, A healthy vegetarian diet
is low in fat and high in fibre. Studies have linked the consumption of meat
, specifically red foodstuff, with an increased risk of heart disease, stroke and certain types of cancer. In addition
, the consumption of meat
has contributed to the global increase in obesity. For instance
, many countries in the West that show high meat
consumption also
offer higher health issues, which are usually related to the heart and ranking among the highest obesity rates.
Finally
, I reiterate that even though a vegetarian diet
has several benefits, I still believe that vegetarian people may have to take many supplements and put in much effort to have a balanced meal full of essential macro and micronutrients. On the other hand
, non-vegetarian people can easily mix vegetarian and non-vegetarian diets with remaining healthy.Submitted by The Teaching Desk on
