  4. Benefits of Vegetarianism • Environmental • Soil stability • Air and water quality • Health • Decreased risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke and some types of cancer

  5. Why Vegan? • The difference between vegetarian and vegan is (basically) eggs and dairy. • Some of the same benefits apply here. • Even less saturated fat and cholesterol • Less environmental impact. • Also, you avoid the antibiotics and hormones that are found in most animal products. • Finally, some become vegan because the amount of calcium in dairy products makes it hard to absorb iron from plant sources consumed at the same time.

  6. Breakfast • Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day. • People who regularly eat breakfast, especially those containing whole grains, have more energy throughout the day. • Eating breakfast also reduces the risk of becoming overweight. It gets your metabolism going, and stops you from overeating at other times in the day.
