As some of you may be aware, my recent diagnosis of cancer caused me to implement the Budwig Diet, which is pretty much a vegetarian regimen. (I will add that 9 months post diagnosis, I am still doing fine.)

Her diet does allow fish - but after reading this depressingly accurate analysis of the state of our planet, I am considering eliminating even that.

Sometimes it is difficult to make choices:  one would think that farmed fish might be the answer... then one reads horror stories about how toxic they are, what they are fed, how they are colored, how much lower their nutrient content is  .

Consider, too, that this state of affairs has come about when most of the world has not reached our level of consumerism.  What will happen to our planet when all others join us at the table?

Going vegetarian - the Vegetarian Society

Be careful - not all vegetarian is vegetarian! Another excellent example of my theory that when big companies try to exploit a health trend, believe me, they are NOT doing it for your benefit.  Stick to the companies who are authentically vegetarian on principle, and you will be safe.
