Heart disease is irreversible. Recent medical research demonstrates that vegetarian diet can help reverse heart disease. All American men have the same heart attack risk. Risk of death from heart attack for the average American man is 50 percent, versus 4 percent for total vegetarian men. Vegetable oils, margarine, nuts, avocado, tofu and coconut contain cholesterol.
None is found in grains, legumes, fruits, vegetables, nuts or seeds.
Vegetarians are weak and lack endurance. Meat is totally lacking in carbohydrates, the most readily usable source of energy. Elephants, horses, apes and oxen are vegetarian. So are many famous athletes, such as Hank Aaron, Ridgely Abele, Andreas Cahling, James Donaldson, Roy Hilligan, Anton Innauer, Sixto Linares, Edwin Moses, Paavo Nurmi, Robert Parish, Bill Pearl, Bill Pickering, Stan Price, Murray Rose and Dave Scott. Making the change to a vegetarian diet is difficult.
