Transition to a Healthier Lifestyle With Vegetarian Recipes

When you're making food choices at the supermarket do you ever consider the consequences it will have on your well being and lifestyle? Have you really thought about it? Your quality of life in the future will depend on the choices you have made to-day.

All healthy diets are low fat, low cholesterol and high fiber - which makes a vegetarian diet an outstanding option for improving the health of your heart.

The well known saying "we become what we eat" is more than just words, as it has been proven over and over again, that healthy people eat healthy foods.

When we make the switch from eating meat to a vegetarian-based diet, our cholesterol improves, our body fat reduces, we are less prone to many types of cancers, the chances of contracting diabetes reduces, our blood pressure falls into the normal and generally, our overall health and fitness improves.

If you have a family history of high cholesterol or high blood pressure, then it's particularly incumbent on you to revise your eating habits. Moving towards a more vegetarian diet has been shown statistically to reduce the incidence of so many of the diseases of industrialized countries. Vegetarians are statistically healthier than omnivorous persons; they're leaner and live longer.

Vegetarians avoid fast foods at all costs. Have you ever seen an example of your blood plasma after eating a fast food hamburger? What was previously a clear liquid becomes cloudy with the fat and cholesterol that's absorbed from eating a high-fat hamburger.

It's time now for you to think about your health and your future. Do you want to be overweight, have less energy and simply feel sluggish and fat, or do you want to feel the way most vegetarians feel and look like with a longer anticipated lifespan? Isn't it time to think about what you want to be and to eat accordingly by starting to-day on a vegetarian diet.

It's never too late to change what you're eating and increase your chances for a longer, fitter life. "If it is to be - it is up to me."
