Giving up meat is bad for the psyche.
In recent years, more and more people are turning to vegetarian diet. For a variety of reasons. Maybe you also thought about it? It is believed that giving up meat makes people healthier, smarter and generally better.
But will you be happier?
In fact, dieticians say that everything will be exactly the opposite. The study, published in Women’s Healthrecently, warns that forgoing meat can very seriously affect your mental health. In the worst way.
This is the conclusion reached by the authors of the Australian study.
They tell us that vegetarians are in the majority — people are less optimistic and more suffering from anxiety and stress than meat eaters.
The same study showed that vegetarians 18% more likely to report depression and 28% more likely to experience panic attacks and anxiety.
In General, people that are considering the idea of switching to a purely vegetarian diet, should be aware of the risks and the fact that they outweigh the potential benefits.
If the last time you felt a bit more sluggish and anxious than usual, whether it is connected with the deficit of meat in your diet?
The fact that animal meat contains a number of vitamins, zinc, iron and tryptophan, a substance which is very small in products of plant origin and which have a vital influence on your mood.
If you still decided to give up meat, do it gradually. And meticulously observe yourself and your mood. Perhaps vegetarianism is just not for you.
