Any one is there who is agree with this statement
The persons who eat meat are more healthier then who doesn't take it..because it content more nutrient compare to have in vegetables..
But i didn't think so..I have a opposite thought..the vegetable provides much sufficient nutrients then meat.and i see many vegetarian persons whose health are much better..What is your perception my friends...?

Yes you are right friends that we may find non-veg are more healthier than a vegetarian.. because in non vegetarian food the calories and fat are in high quantity.. so they become more stronger than vegetarian..

Back in middle school I became vegetarian only after researching into it. I was raised under the assumption that vegetarians are pale, sickly tree huggers who talk about slaughterhouses at the dinner table. Fast forward eight years, and I'm vegan now (no meat, dairy, eggs, or any animal products whatsoever), healthier than I've ever been.
I went to college for dietetics, the study of nutrition. I remember going to my first nutrition class, thinking I'd be the odd one out, the one everyone else would try to prove wrong, etc. Instead, when my nutrition professor found out I was vegan, she said to the class, "Here's a girl who's way ahead of us all!" In a nutrition assignment where you had to record your meals for a week and enter the foods into a nutrition program, I found I was the only one in the class who was getting 100% or more of all nutrients, both vitamins and minerals, in addition to proper amounts of protein, carbs, and fats, including the Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids.
I don't hate people who eat meat. However, I find eating meat extremely unnecessary and quite distasteful for anyone who isn't selfish. I surely don't think it's respectful to any living being to eat its corpse, whether fish, human, chicken, or dog. The human body is not biologically set up to eat meat and dairy without a high chance of consequences in the forms of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis. I met a few people while in school for dietetics who reversed diabetes and one who reversed cancer while on a raw food vegan diet. Since veganism isn't the norm in America, however, this goes unnoticed and most people still believe that there's no cure for cancer. It's upsetting to me.
There are still those know-it-alls who will tell me I'm pale and skinny because I'm vegan, yet they have no knowledge that I truly was sickly before becoming vegan and filling out. There are those people who truly believe protein is a worry for vegans and vegetarians, when in reality, the majority of vegetarians and vegans have a nutritionally complete diet and the majority of meat-eaters do not. There are those people who believe that vegetarians/vegans are at high risk of anemia, when the reverse is true, without one recorded anemic vegan case in any peer reviewed medical journals. Vegetarianism and veganism gets an enormously bad rap...like with anything, my only advice is to truly research something before you make false assumptions. You never know what you'll learn.

The study of nutrition unfortunately does not mean you study botany, just as dietetics also does not bother with biology and the like (some classes in biology, but not enough to be considered core courses). However, you have your opinion, and I have mine. Plants are living creatures. Although the majority of what vegans eat are not the actual living plant (such as fruits and nuts that are formed from a living plant rather than being the actual plant itself), we do eat entire plants that range from greens, potatoes, etc.
An animal, like a human, has a brain and a nervous system to trigger emotions and pain. A plant, although it has instinctual intelligence, has not yet been proven to have any sort of system of the like. Plants cannot express emotion because they simply have no method of having emotion. It is simple science that gives me further reason to be vegan. Everything I eat is grown from the earth and, like you said, living, although it does not dabble in emotion, feeling, pain, etc.
Although I respect your concern about the plants vs. animals debate, you have to consider comparing yourself to a plant. They are completely different creations, an animal and a plant, and have bodily systems that go by that. Just as you and a horse or a cow aren't that different biologically or genetically, the same cannot be said for a plant and a human, or a plant and a horse or cow. All aspects must be considered before making an opinion. I agree that part of it is Nature's Law, however, when I can live peacefully and much more healthy without eating the creatures I know are equal to humans in a biological system sense and sometimes intelligently, I also live with a better conscience. If your conscience is just fine with eating meat, great! For that is why you eat meat and have the opinion you do about plants and animals. I don't hate those who eat meat, I just don't understand why some feel it's necessary. I never question those around me who eat meat as well...like I said, I don't understand it, but we all form our own opinions based on research and experience. I only hope that one day I can expect the same respect from those who choose a different lifestyle.

It depends. In my opinion, vegetables and meats provide our body with different nutritions, which are all indispensable. A person who eats proper amount of meats and vegetables are healthier than those who only eats vegetables. If a person eats too much meat, of course his health will be negatively affected.

Hell0 siliguri!
i guess they are, just because there are some vitamins and proteins that only non-vegetable foods contain and vegeterians can't actually provide themselves with it only eating fruits and vegetables! So that's why i think that non-veg live healthier than vegs and i also think it is approved from many scientists!
