Vegetarianism has received a ringing endorsement from two of North America's most prestigious medical associations: the American Dietetic Association and Dietitians of Canada.
“It
is health that is
real wealth and not
pieces of gold
and silver.”
- Mohandas Gandhi
World-renowned figures as diverse as philosophers Plato and Nietzsche, political leaders Benjamin Franklin and Gandhi, and pop icons Paul McCartney and Bob Marley have all advocated a vegetarian diet. Science is also on the side of vegetarianism.
