Ingrid Newkirk Vegetarian Quotations

It's the 21st century. It's healthier for us, better for the environment and certainly kinder to be a vegetarian.

Going meat-free can make a huge difference. Studies show that vegetarians are, on average, 10 to 20 pounds lighter than meat-eaters and that a vegetarian diet reduces our risk of heart disease by 40 percent and adds seven or more years to our lifespan.

Recognize meat for what it really is: the antibiotic- and pesticide-laden corpse of a tortured animal.
