Lord Taylor a sorcerer and vegetarian of the Old Era, sat down to eat with his guest who was not a vegetarian and who was himself curious as to why would Friskilight’s most powerful being, be a vegetarian. Lord Taylor went on to respond and state the following.
”Like the Sun, Moon, and Azantalight, Mr. Moore, there are three kinds of vegetarians in existence: ovo-lacto, a vegetarian that eats vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes, seeds and nuts, as well as eggs and dairy products. Lacto, a vegetarian that eats everything the “ovo-lacto” does, except eggs. Finally, we have vegans, a vegetarian that eats what the rest of the others eat, except for any kind of animal products, period. Each group of vegetarians is unique, but branches from the same tree of life.”
“Why would anyone want to be a vegetarian you might be thinking Mr. Moore?” “Well, there are many reasons as there are stars in the heavens. Some reasons are for health purposes, religious/spiritual, environmental, and the love and protection of animals. Other reasons may be for very personal reasons. No matter the reason, we all meet at the same intersection on the road of health.”
What Can Vegetarianism Do for Me?
Lord Taylor continued, “The healing arts and science have proven time and again that vegetarians are among the healthiest people on the planet. They live longer and are less prone to chronic diseases. Eating a low-fat vegetarian diet can also help in losing excess weight. Obesity can lead to adult-onset diabetes, hypertension, heart disease and cancer. Eating a vegetarian type of diet can reverse heart disease and other health problems such as arthritis. In addition, the vegetarian diet can lower blood pressure. Because potassium is plentiful in fruits and vegetables, the vegetarian diet lowers blood pressure by helping the kidneys abolish sodium and modify blood pressure-regulating enzymes.”
A vegetarian diet decreases the thickness of blood. As a result, it flows more easily through blood vessels. This in turn means the heart works less to push the blood. Furthermore, a vegetarian diet benefits you by using millions of kidney cells to filter and purify your blood. A meat diet over works the kidneys and slowly kills off the kidney cells called nephrons. Animal protein, when broken down in the body, produces waste products that strain the filtering power of the kidneys. If you’ve lost any kind of kidney function, due to infection, diabetes or even high blood pressure, your increased chances of nephron damaging your kidneys are high. Plate-based proteins on the other hand do not damage or harm your kidneys in any way.” Understand Mr. Moore?
Nutritional Vegetarians
Lord Taylor held up his hands to silence Mr. Moore. “Any new vegetarian, no doubt would be wondering if they’ll be getting the right nutrition and certainly enough of it. Yes, and yes, there’s no reason why they would be under nourished being a vegetarian. Fruits and vegetables provide crucial nutrients such as vitamins C and E, beta carotene and lycopene. Such nutrients are referred to as antioxidants and their function is to help fight diseases by neutralizing substances called free radicals. Antioxidants contain disease fighting properties that protect cells from damage.”
Religious & Spiritual Paths
The sorcerer took another mouthful of his meal and continued “Many religions practice some form of vegetarianism. Through meditation and other spiritual practices, they have gained a greater awareness of how they should be eating and treating their bodies. Even the Mystics of all four continents follow the vegetarian lifestyle.”
For The Love of Planet & Animals
Lord Taylor was smiling at his guest who seemed overwhelmed at volume of information being provided to him. “Among other reasons for becoming a vegetarian are environmental. Raising animals for food causes top-soil loss, erosion and that isn’t a light matter. This sort of farming, livestock agriculture, is rapidly deteriorating the world’s crop lands. It takes less gallons of water to produce a pound of wheat, compared to a far more significant amount of water to produce a pound of beef.”, “But I have the highest confident Mr. Moore that you and your colleagues being honest and very helpful politicians to the people of Friskilight, will solve this problem eventually and not defer it down the road to your descendants.”, Mr. Moore raised his eyebrow nervously.
Eat Right — Live Well
Lord Taylor continued “Many people just want to eat healthily and feel better in their lives. It truly feels good to be a vegetarian in every way. You can’t go wrong with better health, helping the planet and its creatures.”
A New Beginning
Lord Taylor “Finally! Vegetarianism isn’t just something that you do or a way of eating, but also a state of being that illuminates your mind, spirit, emotion and body in a way of existing, that allows you to experience life in a very rewarding and positive way. To be a vegetarian is to see hidden harmony in a world of disguised chaos. I can assure you; we’re unique individuals Mr. Moore”.
