As a result of a comprehensive study organized by a group of specialists from the UK, it was found that a person who is a vegetarian has a 33% lower likelihood of developing heart disease. This conclusion is generally confirmed by the results of previous works on a similar topic..

“In general, there is nothing surprising in the fact that a diet that includes a large amount of fresh vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds and other plant products is good for our body.. As for vegans, it should be understood that our health depends not only on how much junk food we eat..

It is also determined by whether we eat enough healthy food..

Our body is designed in such a way that we must obtain some of the substances necessary for our health from animal products, ”says Dr. Francesca Crowe, professor of nutrition at the Royal College of Great Britain..

But it is important to note that we are talking only about classic vegetarianism.. So-called vegans, who exclude from their diet not only meat, but in general any animal products, not only do not reduce their risk of developing heart disease, but quite possibly even increase it compared to people who eat meat.
