21 REASONS for being VEGETERIAN
Vegetarianism is the fastest growing trend in the developed world. Here are 21 reasons why you should think about turning green too.
- Avoiding meat is one of the best and simplest ways to cut down your fat consumption. Modern farm animals are deliberately fattened up to increase profits. Eating fatty meat increases your chances of having a heart attack or developing cancer.
- Every minute of every working day, thousands of animals are killed in slaughter-houses. Pain and misery are common. In the US alone, 500,000 animals are killed for meat every hour.
- There are millions of cases of food poisoning recorded every year. The vast majority are caused by eating meat.
- Meat contains absolutely nothing - no proteins, vitamins or minerals - that the human body cannot obtain perfectly happily from a vegetarian diet.
- African countries - where millions are starving to death - export grain to the developed world so that animals can be fattened for our dining tables.
|
|
- ‘Meat’ can include the tail, head, feet, rectum and spinal cord of an animal.
|
- A sausage can contain ground up intestines. How can anyone be sure that the intestines are empty when they are ground up? Do you really want to eat the content of a pig’s intestines?
|
- If we eat the plants we grow instead of feeding them to animals, the world’s food shortage will disappear virtually overnight. Remember that 100 acres of land will produce enough beef for 20 people but enough wheat to feed 240 people.
|
- Every day, tens of millions of one-day-old male chicks are killed because they will not be able to lay eggs. There are no rules about how this mass slaughter takes place. Some are crushed or suffocated to death. Many are used for fertiliser or fed to other animals.
|
- Animals who die for your dinner table die alone, in terror, in sadness and in pain. The killing is merciless and inhumane.
- It’s must easier to become (and stay) slim if you are a vegetarian. (By ’slim’, I do not mean ‘abnormally slender’ or ‘underweight’ but rather, an absense of excess weight!)
- Half the rainforests in the world have been destroyed to clear ground to graze cattle to make beefburgers. The burning of the forests contributes 20% of all green-house gases. Roughtly 1,000 species a year become extinct because of the destruction of the rainforests. Approximately 60 million people a year die of starvation. All those lives could be saved because those people could eat grain used to fatten cattle and other farm animals - if Americans ate 10% less meat.
|
- The world’s fresh water shortage is being made worse by animal farming. And meat producers are the biggest polluters of water. It takes 2,500 gallons of water to produce one pound of meat. If the US meat industry wasn’t supported by the taxpayer paying a large proportion of its water costs, then hamburger meat would cost $35 a pound.
|
|
- If you eat meat, you are consuming hormones that were fed to the animals. No one knows what effect those hormones will have on your health. In some parts of the world, as many as one on four hamburgers contain growth hormones that were originally given to cattle.
|
- The following diseases are commoner among meat eaters: anaemia, appendicitis, arthritis, breast cancer, cancer of the colon, cancer of the prostrate, constipation, diabetes, gallstones, gout, high blood pressure, indigestion, obesity, piles, strokes and varicose veins. Lifelong vegetarians visit hospital 22% less often than meat eaters and for shorter stays. Vegetarians have a 20% lower blood cholestrol level than meat eaters and this reduces heart attack and cancer risks considerably.
- Some farmers use tranquillisers to keep animals calm. Other routinely use antibiotics to starve off infection. When you eat meat you are eating those drugs. In America, 55% of all antibiotics are fed to animals and the percentage of staphylococci infections resistant to penicillin went up from 14% in 1960 to 91% in 1988.
|
|
- In a lifetime, the average meat eater will consumer 36 pigs, 36 sheep and 750 chickens and turkeys. Do you want that much carnage on your conscience?
|
- Animals suffer from pain and fear just as much as you do. How would you like to spend your last hours locked in a truck, packed into a cage with hundreds of other terrified animal and then cruelly pushed into a blood soaked death chamber. Anyone who eats meat condones and supports the way animals are treated.
- Animals which are a year old are often far more rational - and capable of logical thought - than six week old babies. Pigs and sheep are far more intelligent than small children. Eating dead animals is barbaric.
- Vegetarians are fitter than meat eaters. many of the world’s most successful athletes are vegetarian.

A blind boy sat on the steps of a building with a hat by his feet. He held
up a sign which said: ‘ I am blind, please help.’ There were only a few
coins in the hat.
A man was walking by. He took a few coins from his pocket and dropped them
into the hat. He then took the sign, turned it around, and wrote some words.
He put the sign back so that everyone who walked by would see the new words.
Soon the hat began to fill up. A lot more people were giving money to the
blind boy. That afternoon the man who had changed the sign came to see how
things were.
The boy recognized his footsteps and asked, ‘Were you the one who changed my
sign this morning? What did you write?
The man said, ‘I only wrote the truth. I said what you said but in a
different way.’What he had written was: ‘ Today is a beautiful day and I
cannot see it.’
Do you think the first sign and the second sign were saying the same thing?
Of course, both signs told people the boy was blind. But the first sign
simply said the boy was blind. The second sign told people they were so
lucky that they were not blind. Should we be surprised that the second sign
was much more
effective?
*Moral of the Story: Be thankful for what you have. Be creative. Be
innovative. Think differently and positively.*
The most beautiful thing is to see a person smiling And even more beautiful
is, knowing that you are the reason behind it
My this year resolution is Have deepest Gratitude for what I have now
Thanks all
dear friend, Did you know ???
 Did you know that when you envy someone, it’s because you really like that person?
Did you know that those who appear to be very strong in heart, are real weaklings and most succeptible?
Did you know that those who spend their time protecting others are the ones that really need some one to protect them?
Did you know that the three most difficult things to say are : I love you,Sorry and help me The people who say these are those that actually need them or really feel them, and they are the ones you really need to treasure, because they have said them.
Did you know that people who occupy themselves by keeping others company or helping others are the ones that actually need your company and help?
Did you know that those who dress in red are more confidence in themselves?
Did you know that those who dress in yellow are those that enjoy thier beauty?
Did you know that those who dress in black, are those who want to be unnoticed and need your help and understanding?
Did you know that when you help someone, the help is returned in two folds?
Did you know that those who need more of you are those that did not mention it to you?
Did you know that it’s easier to say what you feel in writting than saying it to someone in the face?But did you know that it has more value when you say it in the face?
Did you know that what is most difficult for you to say or do is much more valuable than anything that is valuable that you can buy with money?
Did you know that if y ou ask for something in faith, your wishes are granted?
Did you know that you can make your dreams come true, like falling in love, becoming rich, staying healthy, if you ask for it by faith, and if you really knew, you’d be surprised by what you could do.
But don’t believe everything I tell you, until you try it for yourself , if you know someone that is in need of something that I mentioned of,and you know that you can help,you’ll see that it will be returned in two folds.
DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU COULD ALWAYS COUNT ON ME???… AT THE MOMENT, TIME AND PLACE THAT YOU NEED ME, CALL ME, I WILL BE THERE WITH YOU !!!!!

A young Indian man excitedly tells his mother he’s fallen in love and that he is going to get married. He says, “Just for fun, Ma, I’m going to bring over 3 women and you try and guess which one I’m going to marry.” The mother agrees. The next day, he brings three beautiful women into the house and sits them down on the couch and they chat for a while. He then says, “Okay Ma, guess which one I’m going to marry.” She immediately replies, “The one on the right.” “That’s amazing, Ma. You’re right. How did you know?” The Indian mother replies, “I don’t like her.”….
1) Mobile
Don’t put your mobile closer to your ears until the
recipient answers, Because directly after dialing, the
mobile phone would use it’s maximum signaling power,
which is: 2watts = 33dbi. Please Be Careful. Please use left
ear while using cell (mobile), because if you use the right
one it may affect brain directly. This is a true fact from Apollo medical team.
2) APPY FIZZ
Do not drink APPY FIZZ . It contains cancer causing
agent.

Don’t eat Mentos before or after drinking Coke or
Pepsi coz the person will die immediately as the mixture

Cotton Ear Buds… (Must read it) Please do not show
sympathy to people selling buds on roadside or at

take all the dirty, blood and pus filled cotton, wash it,
bleach it and use it to make ear buds. So, unless you want
