Are Vegetarians Healthier?

Are Vegetarians Healthier?

Could veggie burgers increase your lifespan? Many experts insist that switching to a vegetarian lifestyle can greatly increase overall health, leading some to ditch their pork rinds like an old smoking habit. Still others swear by an omnivorous diet, saying that occasional New York steak never hurt anyone. Is a fresh helping of tofu just what the doctor ordered, or only a lot of empty calories?

    Yes, I agree with Dr. Mercola's article on soya

    And that good lean meat is good for us.
    I have several friends that are vegetarians
    and they are not healthier than I am, and
    two of the three have plenty of health
    problems actually. The amounts of vitamins
    they are taking could be described as too
    much to be good for them as well.
