    Oh dear, here we go again. The last time you rolled out this set of
    "facts" you were asked to provide a web source by which to confirm it, it
    was not provided and one might conclude it can not be done this or any
    other time. This is an example of the lifestyle cult in action, this one
    centered on various speculations about nutrition which can not be
    supported scientifically but exists soley on emotional cheerleading among
    it's adherents..

    Oh dear, here we go again....

    Vegetarianism is not healthy for the heart. Just ask Jim Fixx.

    That is true in India but if you look at the studies of Western vegetarians
    vegetarian diets are actually quite efficient in preventing heart disease.
    The heart disease risk is at least 25% lower in Western vegetarians compared
    to meat eaters.
