no there is not an advantage because you don't get all your nutrients and all the vitimens. it is actually pretty unhealthy for you. i have a family member who has been a vegitarian for 48 years and now he is in very bad shape. i would suggest not being one.

Cuts back on chances for cardiovascular disease, good enough for me! Plus I love cows, I wouldn't want to eat them ever!

Well..i don't really want to repeat what others have been saying...So, i'll just leave you with this...You know how when you eat certain spices alot, you tend to start smelling a bit like the spice itself? Well...let's just say that my bf use to be a huge "You can't get protein from anywhere else but red meat" person...and well, his skin smelt like meat! Suprisingly enough, without a shove from my end and just guidance, he stopped eating meat...and with that, his skin doesn't smell like rotting flesh anymore. lol Yippee!
