• Non-meat sources of protein contain different nutrients than meat and, therefore, have different effects on your health.

Benefits

  • Eating non-meat protein in place of meat can help decrease your risks of high cholesterol, Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, diverticular disease and certain types of cancer, including colorectal, ovarian and breast cancers.
  • Additionally, eating little to no meat may increase your life expectancy by three to four years, according to a review article published in the September 2003 issue of “The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.” *Individuals who consume all of their protein from non-meat sources tend to have lower body weights compared to their meat-eating counterparts, and they have a lower risk of obesity.
