SHOULD WE BECOME VEGETARIANS?

Can we survive without eating meat for the rest of our lives? Yes, we can but our bodies need the nutrients that meat has to be energetic and healthy. I believe that meat is very important for a balanced diet.

First of all, meatgives us vitamin B12 that is essential for our brain and the rest of foods can't give it to us. Meat gives us proteins that we need to get energy on our day; plants give us protein but not much, less. There are a lot of kinds of animals. As a consequence, we can choose between different types of meat.

Secondly, human bodies need to eat plants and meat because we need nutrients of both. As i see it, meat industry creates milions of job places and if people stop consuming meat, unemployment will increase a lot.

In conclusion, people have been eating meat since prehistory and this is one reason why humanity still exsists, so I think that it is essential for a balanced and varied diet.
