Vegetarianism: Eating for Your Health, the Animals and the Environment
Vegetarianism is described as having a diet that abstains from meat. While there are many diets that come under this umbrella, for the purposes of this discussion we will be referring to a vegetarian diet as one free from meat, fish, chicken, eggs, and animal derived products such as gelatin. There are a number reasons that people choose vegetarianism, but regardless of why one’s diet is meat-free, there is more than one benefit to not eating meat.
