Lara Dutta: ‘Let Vegetarianism Grow on You’ – PETA

The gorgeous and talented Lara Dutta has earned a degree in economics from Mumbai University, reigned as a former Miss Universe and launched a successful career as an actor, starring in films such as BlueHousefull and Andaaz, for which she won the Filmfare Award for Best Female Debut. How does she find the energy to accomplish so much? By choosing a vegetarian diet, of course!

Why is leaving meat off your plate such a recipe for achievement? Vegetarian foods are naturally low in fat and cholesterol but high in nutrients, so you will never be weighed down when you need to be on the go. And because vegetarian diets work well for long-term weight loss, it’s no surprise that vegetarians are generally leaner and trimmer than meat-eaters. Going vegetarian also reduces your risk for heart disease, diabetes, obesity and cancer.

“Even seemingly small choices can have a big impact on our health, our community and the world around us”, says Lara. “Going vegetarian is one of the easiest ways to improve our health, help countless animals and protect the Earth.”
