Reasons to become a vegetarian
So you wouldn’t have to lie to your children about what they eat
A vegetarian diet prevents heart diseases
Eating meat has been scientifically proven to cause obesity and constipation
Because no-one wants to see their family get slaughtered
Because breeding animals for food
can cause serious diseases
Because nobody
should benefit from taking a life
Only evil people beat defenseless animals
Because no animal should die
just to please your palate
Because we don’t need more cholesterol to digest
our liver produces it naturally
Because to produce 1kg of meat
you need more than 30 times more water than to produce 1kg of wheat
Because you can’t eat meat and call yourself an environmentalist
Do you need more reasons?
Because eating pork doesn’t benefit your sex life
On the contrary, eating meat can cause impotence
Because all of us who have a nervous system
feel pain and suffering
Because no matter how it is cut
It is still a corpse
To claim that probiotics enhance our immune system
hasn’t been scientifically proven
Because animal protein
is the main reason for bone decalcification
The nitrate added to meat to create that unnatural pink colour
causes cancer
Because the meat industry
causes more greenhouse gases than
all the world’s planes, public transport,
ships, tractors and cars
Because trade isn’t a reason to kill
Because wings were not meant for this
Because we all want to be free
Because eating fish doesn’t make you a vegetarian
No matter how far you are from the slaughterhouse, you are still responsible
Because the grains that are used to feed them
could be used to feed them
You know this is unjust
Maybe now is the time to go vegetarian?
