What your views/experiences of being a vegetarian? Swami Vivekananda (Hindu monk who attended the Fair of World Religions held at Chicago in 1893) wrote in one of his letters that vegetarians suffered from stomach ailments, whereas non-vegetarians suffered from ailments of upper half i.e. heart and lungs. If you and/or your family members are non-vegetarians, did not anybody experience ailments of lungs and heart (except those caused by extreme old age). I am making this enquiry to find out 1. whether things have changed in these 110 years? 2. whether there is any correlation between vegetarianism and stomach ailments and non-vegetarian diet and lung/heart ailments.
