Hi, I am a vegetarian by choice, for about 8 years now... I do take eggs and other diary products for the protein intake. Having a vegetarian diet or at least more fruits and veggies + reduced meat consumption certainly has its benefits. I find myself healthier and not so susceptible to flu and cold. I used to get flu like 3 times a year, now I have hardly even got one in 2 years. That's the most obvious benefit I can share with you.

I am a vegetarian. In our religion it is regarded that being a vegetarian is a very healthy way of living. So I stick to be a vegetarian. I love fruits and vegetables, though these days a lot of junk food is taking it's toll on me :( Cheers! Ram

i agree with you... being a vegetarian is really a healthy way of living. fruits and vegetables are the the foods that can cure sicknesses too. that's my belief.

I am not a vegetarian, but I certainly prefer having vegetable dishes to meat dishes. When I go to restaurants where they serve buffet, my choices are invariably always vegetables. I also have an affinity for drinking fruit juices, orange juice, apple juice, peineapple juice, and so on. I do belive in the health value of fruit juices.
