Are you a Vegetarian? A report published by JAMA Internal Medicine has found that vegetarians live longer because of their diet. They found a reduction in death rates for people eating vegetarian diets compared with non-vegetarians in a study of more than 70,000 people. Over a 6 year period, vegetarians were 12 per cent less likely to die from any cause. It is thought the benefits come from lower blood pressure and improved cholesterol levels in people eating ‘good’ fat diets based on vegetables, whole grains and fruit.
