Vegetarian Food is healthier than non-vegetarian food

The respected jury, I stand before you to debate the motion that vegetarian food is healthier than non-vegetarian food. There are many friends of mine who daily argue on this topic. Whenever they go for an outing in a restaurant the lover of non-vegetarian food starts teasing the other group by saying that he/she is simply wasting money by having vegetarian food. I strongly support the notion that a vegetarian diet is far healthier than a non-vegetarian diet. Let us look at the reasons.

Vegetarian diets have higher fiber content and folate as compared to non-vegetarian diets. Moreover, saturated fats and cholesterol are found in a lower amount in vegetarian diets.

Vegetable diets reduce the risk of many diseases like obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis, and especially cancer. Non-vegetarians are more prone to chronic diseases. Check out the statistics of western countries. It clearly shows that on average, vegetarians have a longer life than non-vegetarians. The vegetarian diet is not restricted to some limited foods. The variety of vegetarian dishes that can be made is endless. Chicken and fish contain Trans fatty acids and when consumed excessively can cause heart diseases. Thank you. I hope my arguments will convince the jury of the wisdom of following a vegetarian diet.
