Don't eat meat much, not a vegetarian?

Question

besides ham, i don't really eat that much meat, should i be eating something else to replace it?

Answer 1

any type of diet can be healthy (carnivorous, vegetarian, vegan) if its balanced and made of things closest to their natural form. so if your eating ham every now and then, but are afraid of not getting enough protein, then make sure you also are eating fruits, veggies,beans and such. from these things you'll get protein.(not to mention fiber and lots of different types of vitamins)

Answer 2

Eat whatever you want to..

But if you eat ham, no, you're not a vegetarian.

Answer 3

If you want to be a vegetarian, the yes you should replace it. Tofu, for example, would make a good meat replacement for your protien needs.

If you have no intention of adopting a vegetarian diet, then I really wouldn't worry about finding a replacement.

Answer 4

if your still eating meat, you dont need to worry about it.

Answer 5

If you eat a lot of ham, you don't have to be concerned about your protein intake.

Answer 6

try eating tofu,thats got lots of good vitamins

Answer 7

sure.you can eat anything you want.if you become a vegetarian then you will have to stop eating ham.ham comes from an animal.

what you can eat is alot of fruits and vegetables

Answer 8

Yes. the reason you need meat is because it provides the nine essential amino acids that are necessary in your diet, while still getting protein. There's an easy way to still get those nine amino acids +protein.

In order to get the amino acids, you need to combine two different vegetables, that alone have four or five amino acids, but together make up all nine. To get the protein, you can eat things like peanut butter, dairy, fish, ham! and even some breakfast cereals.

Hope this helps! ;)

Answer 9

Not a big problem, there is vegetarian ham.  You just need to find it.

Answer 11

Well meat contains protien and protien is essential for your body. So if you can replace the meat with other foods that have protien that will help nourish your body it will help keep you from feeling weak. You could try peanuts or peanut butter eggs, milk or anything else with protein. Heres a link with some foods that have protien:
