Being a nutrition major, the only problem i have with vegetarianism is that it can be very difficult to get all the nutrients you need. It would really depend upon your bioindiviual metabolic type.
But im all for eatting what you believe.
I find it very hard to be vegan or vegetarian because i myself am a fast oxidizer, so i need more protien than i could get from plants.
But i only eat grass fed beef, free range chicken or eggs, raw cows milk (from healthy cows), and no processed food. Raw almonds are my fav

We dont treat ourselves or animals very well, which is why i dont eat thsoe kinds of foods. Plus they are much more nutrient dense mind you.

You must also bear in mind that most of the crops we grow, are genetically modified; which is very bad for health. Plants that will retain pestcide, or even produce it, cannot have any good in our bodies. Thats why it is essential to eat organic
