    Vegan Pros And Cons

    Veganism is a diet that refrains from the usage and consumption of animal products. As an increasing number of people become aware of the harsh treatment of animals on factory farms as well as the environmental consequences an increasing number of health-conscious, ethically conscious, and environmentally conscious people are becoming vegans. Thus, the vegan diet’s increasing popularity means that it is easier than ever to become a vegan and to find meat and dairy alternatives that make the vegan diet easier for some people who still crave specific animal products like cheese, milk, and meat.…

    Argument Against Vegetarianism

    Vegetarians sometimes leave out key nutrients they need to be consumed due to how life interferes with diets a lot of the time. Some of those key nutrients include calcium, iodine, iron, omega-3 fatty acids, protein, vitamin B-12, vitamin D, and zinc. To make sure the supplements are not left out there need to be alternatives. Calcium is an essential for maintaining strong bones and for nerve health, while there are some vegetarians who choose not to remove dairy from their diets completely, there are others who do. Dairy is not the only food with it, vegetables like kale, choy, and broccoli also contain calcium. Iron is also a big one, it contributes in the process of making hemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood. Iron deficiencies are more common in women than men already so to reduce this in vegetarians as well nuts and dried fruits are needed. Protein is probably the most worried about in a vegetarian diet but what people don't realize is that protein is in everything we eat, from spinach to nuts and…

    Vegetarian Vs Vegetarian

    A very common misconception is the mislabeling and generalization of those considering themselves to be vegetarians. Vegetarian is used to describe people who exclude meat, poultry, fish, or any other animal derived food from their diet. However, within the generalized term "vegetarian" come numerous different forms of the lifestyle, each classified based on the degree to which animal products are excluded from their diet and the reasoning such as ethical, religious, health. The different groups of vegetarianism fall along an imaginary spectrum, with semi-vegetarians, who are often excluded entirely due to behaviors conflicting with the practice, on one end of the spectrum and at the opposite end are vegans, the strictest of vegetarianism. The semi vegetarians, or those who exclude animal products from their lifestyle to some degree, are often banished by true vegetarians. This is partially due to the fact that semi vegetarians consume some sort of animal products, thereby contradicting the definition of the term. However, semi vegetarians' motivations are highly different. Some are obligated by religious beliefs to refrain from eating particular types of meats. Others follow the lifestyle for health concerns; say perhaps a person chooses to not eat red-meat because of cholesterol problems. Another possible motivation would be pure personal preference. Even though semi vegetarians fall short, they still obtain some of the positive health benefits that vegetarianism brings. Although meat is both healthy and harmful to your body it has its own…

    Informative Speech/Outline Vegetarians

    There are different kinds of vegetarians. Some vegetarians do not eat beef or red meet, but they eat chicken and fish. Some do not eat red meat, chicken and fish, but they eat cheese, butter, eggs, milk, and other animal products. Other vegetarians do not use anything that comes from an animal. Some don’t wear wool because it harms the sheep, don’t use silk because it hurt silkworms, and don’t eat honey because they do not want to hurt bees. Other vegetarians only eat vegetables; however, they do not kill plants. For examples, they will not eat carrots or potatoes because when they pick them, the plant dies. They will eat apples or pears because picking them does not harm the plant. Some vegetarians do not kill or hurt any animals – not even fly or a mosquito! Can you believe? There are many different types of vegetarians, and there are many different people, who are vegetarian. According the research of Vegetarian Research Group in 2012 the number of Americans who are vegetarian is about 8.8 million.…

    I never understood the difference between being a vegan and being a vegetarian. To me they seemed to be cut from the same cloth. Kind of like the way one pronounces the word "tomato". Is it toe-may-toe..? Or is it toe-mah-toe...? Does it really matter if you're both trying to accomplish the same goal? And so it was - I thought - with vegan and vegetarian diets.…
