Vegetarian or Carnivore? by Shin Ho

Today many people are changing types of food. They have a lot of reasons. Some people change in order to lose weight, others people change because they hate killing cows, pigs, chickens, sheep etc. Also there are many reasons. My teacher Sean is a vegetarian. He think Vegetarian is healthier than Carnivore and vegetables are safer than meat. However, are these reasons really reasonable? I will write down my opinions.

In the first place, really can weight be lost? Of course if you ate vegetables, you could be slim. But after you cut off dieting, if you will eat again, you put on weight. That is why if you have eaten during diet span, you don’t decrease muscles (These burn kcal, mainly). Of course, if you continue to eat just vegetables, that is OK. But if you eat vegetables for 3 or 4 months, you have to remember that.

Furthermore, really will vegetarianism decreases to killing animals? I am sure they never do that because mankind has eaten animals for a long time but vegetarians appeared less than 500
years ago. Moreover, if we don’t eat anymore, their number will decrease sharply because animals take up a lot of space, but we need space where we live. Lastly, really is the vegetable healthier than meat? I can speak confidently. NEVER!!! It is impossible. The most vital ingredient in meat is protein and fat but we don’t find them in vegetables. Some people think too easily that fat is bad. But it also is important for our bodies. Therefore I object to vegetarianism because of these reasons. I think that people have to eat everything except other people.
