For the Vegetarian in You
by Billy Ray Boyd

Vegans and vegetarians ingest fewer chemicals and pesticides, use less of the earth's precious resources by eating low on the food chain, live longer, feel better, and stay sexually active longer. But it doesn't stop there. Did you know that meat, eggs, and milk are not the best sources of protein? Or that too much protein robs your body of calcium? Or that nearly half of Central America's tropical rainforests have been destroyed to produce cheap beef for the U.S. consumers?

Revealing how animals, the environment, our bodies, and even our relationships can benefit when we opt for a vegetarian or vegan diet, For the Vegetarian in You builds a compelling case for action. Changing the way you eat really can make a difference!
