My vegetarian experience

Taking medicine is not a taboo. If the doctor's hands

are broken, I started to be vegetarian when I was a junior, but the reason for being vegetarian is the result of watching "Citizens of the Earth" and participating in environmental protection clubs in the university. I'm from Inner Mongolia, and I was not used to it at first.

What to eat? My daily dishes are basically cabbage tofu, canola fungus, potato green pepper, green vegetable vermicelli, di Sanxian (eggplant, sweet potato|potato, green pepper), cauliflower-basically that's it. By the way, there is rice porridge, millet porridge in the morning, and pumpkin polenta occasionally in the evening. The main staple food is noodles and steamed buns.

After eating for three months, I found a few points, which are consistent with those in the film.

One is that the spirit is better. I always dozed off in class before, but later I found out that the most disliked class of that semester was able to cheer up. Listen to it all morning~ The
second is that the body has changed a bit, and there is no heavy feeling as before. On the one hand, I can get up early in the morning. , On the other hand, I used to be a member of the school's martial arts team, and I sometimes felt exhausted during training. After a semester of being a vegetarian, I found that I no longer felt this way. Not only that, but I can also do a lot of actions that I didn't do well before, such as the spinner. I feel a lot more sensitive in my body.

Another point is that the ins and outs of this theory are clearly explained in the movie itself. For those who still have questions, I recommend buying a copy of "Lifesaving Diet" or "Diet Revolution" for yourself. It provides detailed reference materials for the paper.

PS: Some people are vegetarian, but instead of eating meat, change to 10 eggs a day~ Can your cholesterol intake increase instead of decreasing? Some people think that fish and seafood are not meat, and some even think that chicken is not meat~ So according to this film, we should not eat anything that contains animals and related products~
