Studies show that 29 PC of meat eaters are unlikely to pick low-fat milk from the supermarket as compared to vegetarians’ 57 PC. So what does this mean? It simply means that vegetarians diet rarely feels good on many taste buds.
Let’s compare notes from each side. When you look at the number of people who sign up in gyms, you will notice that a big number are vegetarians. On the other hand, meat eaters are fewer than the former. This should not come up as a surprise to you because vegetarians generally have healthier habits than meat eaters. Therefore, the former tend to exercise more than the latter.
However, some scientists have argued that vegetarians diet is not healthy since it does not include essential proteins. They imply that due to the lack of essential proteins, a vegetarian is at a risk of getting infections. Carrots are recommended for vegetarians because they boost immunity while also adding vitamin A.
How much weight can you lose by being a vegetarian?
Needless to say, vegetables are easy to digest and are absorbed easily. You can lose five to ten pounds as long as you ditch meat for a while. Though there are consequences of ditching milk products, giving them up keeps your weight in check.
Whatever you do, remember that everyone has different body nutrient requirements. We cannot assume that, ‘Party A’ lost weight from being a vegetarian and therefore ‘Party B’ will also lose the same amount of weight. Focus on the process and not the outcome so as not get anxious.
Lastly, being a vegetarian can be tough or easy depending on what guidance you get. If you have no idea what you are doing, get a certified nutritionist who will help you throughout the journey to becoming a vegetarian which makes losing weight as easy as ABC.
