Answer 2

If you do your going to have to study up on the diet, learn to cook your own veggie stuff and get your parents approval.

These are the things we replace meat with: milk, cheese, eggs, beans, peanut butter, seeds and nuts. You can also get veggie burgers, veggie hot dogs, veggie sausage and veggie chick patties.

You shouldn't announce your age when you are not old enough to be on here.  The rules say 13.  I would remove this question before you get your account suspended.

If that's what you believe in then go for it! No one's keeping you from becoming who you want to be.

If you choose to do so.

Answer 8

It would be the best thing for you to do. Here are some things you might want to know:

-our saliva isn't meant to break down meat like carnivore's are.

-the meat (chicken, pigs, cows, etc) which you are eating, contains antibiotics, growth hormones, and steroids. PLUS, the animal feed they use to feed the animals contain 32,000 different chemicals, but the FDA only lists 17,000. Even if it says "usda organic/pure", it's still bad. They combine the infected meat with the good meat.

-they only test about 20,000 cows for mad cow disease out of a million. Japan tests all of their cows.

-we are the only species on are that drink milk as adults. Milk is meant to fatten us up. It has way too much hormones and estrogen that we need (which can lead to breast cancer)

Here is a 7 minute video I urge all meat eaters to watch: http://meat.org/

I would encourage you to talk with your doctor at your next check up about that.  

Also go to the library and do some reading on the subject.

No humans are omnivores.  Research teeth, our teeth have developed as omnivore teeth.  That said most people eat way too much meat.

Answer 12

Answer 13

Well, that's really your decision to make. I would certainly recommend it. Going vegetarian is one of the best ways to help animals, stay healthy, and protect the environment.

The American Dietetic Association is one of the top nutrition experts in the United States, and it supports vegetarian diets for all ages. It says: "Well-planned vegan and other types of vegetarian diets are appropriate for all stages of the life cycle, including during pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood and adolescence."

So if you want to become vegetarian, go for it!
