How to Start a Diet Without Meat

Studies have shown that consumption of meat poses many health risks such as heart attacks, cancer, and obesity. All of these result from the byproducts of trans fat, cholesterol, and toxins from pesticide residues as well as antibiotics and hormones the animals were fed. What can we do about it? How can we substitute other food for meat but still get all the complete proteins we need as well as the vitamins and minerals. Most people think that we have to eat meat in order to get all the nutrition we need, but thats not necessarily the case. There are other food sources with complete protein such as fish, eggs, milk, and tofu. In addition, we can also combine legumes with whole grains, whole grains with nuts/seeds, and legumes with nuts/seeds. Other than for health reasons, we should eat a diet without meat to be responsible human beings and not support the slaughter houses from demoralizing the way animals are raised. However, if you still insist on eating meat then I would suggest looking up Halal meat or Kosher meat as they are raised and slaughtered in a clean and moral way. Below are 5 simple steps to follow a non-meat diet:

Complex carbohydrates (aka whole grains):
