Considering going vegetarian? Here’s twelve sexy reasons to stop thinking and try it out for yourself.
12. Crops require less land than livestock, easing global starvation and conflict.
11. Going vegetarian helps put a stop to rain forest destruction.
10. Vegetarians don’t have to worry about getting parasites from undercooked meat. And worries about mad cow disease are also a thing of the past.
9. With an ever expanding array of vegetarian-catering stores, including Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods Market, it’s easier than ever to try the lifestyle.
8. Vegetarians tend to eat a richer, more varied diet.
7. Quitting meat can help lower your cholesterol.
6. Going vegetarian can add three to six years to your life! [1]
5. Reductions in dairy and meat can lower allergies and PMS symptoms, according to multiple studies.
4. Studies show vegetarians have better sex! [2]
3. Vegetarians tend to be slender and attractive — many celebrated celebs are vegetarians or vegans.
2. Recent research has proven even “primitive” animals like crabs can feel pain.
1. Meat is not a natural part of the human diet — humans can’t properly digest uncooked meat, though uncooked veggies are a tasty treat!

Editor note – Wow! Sunny looks an awful lot like Allyssa Milano.
Better sex? You naughty naughty boy, Jason. hehe. Let me do some research of my own and i’ll get back to you on this one. LoL.
Good stuff!
Its been true in my experience — I believe I’ve gotten some good reviews!
I really like reason #9, too — its so easy to go vegetarian now. We really live in an awesome time — more and more kids are being exposed to the fact that killing animals is a *choice* not a given. I remember when I was a kid, there was just one tiny health food store in my area — now there’s WFM, Trader Joes, and about 4 different good size independent healthy grocers!
I love reason 4. That could make just about anyone want to switch over to being a vegetarian. There are so many health reason to being a vegetarian, or at least eating more raw plant foods.
All of these are true! I feel so much better when I stick to my vegetarian lifestyle, and even better when I eat vegan. After switching most of my beauty products over to environmentally friendly ones, I also look better. No more dry scratchy skin from harsh salts, and no more dry damaged hair from drying shampoos!
Hey guys,
Just wanted to let all those wonderful healthy-diet-oriented people out there know that a few of my friends recently launched a vegetarian dating website. So if you’d like to meet other single vegetarians, please see: http://www.singlevegetarians.com/
I hope you’ll find the right person there.
All the best,
Marija
Hi Guys,
Thanks for the feedback! Callie, that’s awesome I definitely agree — most commercial cleansers are very caustic. I’ve been using Dr. Bronners a lot and love it — my skin feels a lot healthier when I use it.
And thanks for the info Marija, we’ll have to pass that along to our readers. Its nice to see that there’s a way for people with similar lifestyles to meet. But don’t rule out the opportunity to bring other people around to your perspective as well — a lot of people just don’t realize how great the vegetarian lifestyle can be!
Less vegetarians are tempered as compared the non-vegs. You also feel light when you take veg diet. Shahid Kapoor is also vpted as the hottest vegetarian in Asia ( http://sify.com/movies/bollywood/fullstory.php?id=14894047&?vsv=HP4)
Thanks Jason for for all above 12 reasons.
Reason #13: The AMAAAZING vegan chicken sandwiches at KFC (at least here in Toronto)
One benefit I find, in addition to better health in terms of avoiding disease, is just feeling physically better all the time, since I switched over to vegetarian diet. Energy level is better and more steady. Meat eating puts a big load on the system (it takes more energy to digest) and over time that adds dullness to the physiology.
i knew there were lots of good reasons for me to go veggie 4 years ago ..going to show this to my husband right now !
