Free vegetarian book to download

I was delighted to find this free to download 16-page booklet called Go Vegetarian on the Asutralian Vegetarian Society website.

This is an ideal read if you are considering going veggie or simply want to check that you eating the right things.

The site also has a forum if you fancy chatting to other vegetarians and wannbe veggies in Oz.

I'll be updating my blog with details of any other lovely vegetarian freebies I can find.

5 reasons to go vegetarian

1-You are saving animals from a miserable existence where they are caged, abused and then killed usually in a less than humane way.

2-Being meat free is better for the environment as the Rain Forests are being chopped down to make more way for animals to graze that will be killed for food. 

3-Meat production is uneconomical. You get a lot less food from animals than you need to put into them.

4- Meat takes much longer to digest than any other foodstuff. This is one of the reasons vegetarians and vegans get less meat related cancers like cancer of the bowels.

5-Once you make that step towards thinking it’s acceptable to bring animals into the world to kill and eat, it’s much easier to make the step towards thinking all animal cruelty is okay.
