I have not seen one happy or healthy vegetarian yet (most miss work regularly and are on all types of supplements). Not surprising since humans are omnivores and what they are doing is not natural. Still, it is a free world and they are free to do what they want if they are adults. I just wish at least some of them would be the non-preaching type, as in the type that lives and let live.

I know plenty of healthy happy vegs.. and a whole lot of miserable meateaters... i reckon i live in a different world... one problem with some vegs is they don't have the knowledge to know how to cook so you get complete proteins.. new vegetarians tend to be like that.. i am on all kinds of supplements sure, but a lot of meateaters my age are on all kinds of pharmaceuticals.. That is a fact!! Better get your meds from a health food store... I do think the gov't ought to support the health industry instead of the pharmaceutical industry, but that's just the socialist in me i guess.
Well the ancient subcontinent of India, which makes up about 18% of the world's population, has a pretty high vegetarian population - I don't know how high, but they haven't died off yet and their food is amazing.
Teenagers need support in their diet no matter what - whether trying to go veg alone and accidentally starving their body of nutrients, or living off of pizza and ramen in the college dorms and accidentally starving their body of nutrients.
Our hospitals are full of meat eaters - western diet, aching joints, atherosclerosis, extra fat, antidepressives, skin fungus, colon cancer. We've got quite a few glowing-health vegetarians showing up on their bicycles every morning to put on their white coats. We've also got meat eaters riding in on their bicycles in excellent health.
There are terrible ways to eat both veg and non veg... eating a diet consisting of a lot of carbs is now known to be real bad. The pasta diet. And the food supply in general is toxic with a lot of grains and beans contaminated with glyphosate. Meat is at least as toxic with antibiotics hormones and more glyphosate. Dairy too. Business as usual is killing us.
India was a lot more vegetarian previously, at least the Hindus were. Not the Muslims of course. So there is a tradition of veg food there that is obviously sustainable. More people are eating meat now due to westernization i think.

And no way to test the levels of these things. That's a good business opportunity if anyone has time and energy.
