Health Benefits of Adopting a Meatless Monday Lifestyle

Cutting out meat, even if it’s just once a week, can dramatically decrease your risk of heart disease by up to 19% according to a Harvard University study. The consumption of red and other processed meats have been shown in scientific studies to increase the risk of diabetes. Cutting back on the consumption of these meats can reduce this risk, and can also help to curb obesity. Some studies have associated eating meat to the number of colon cancer incidents as well.
