World Vegetarian Day it is Today!

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well and good! 😀

As the title specifies, today is World Vegetarian Day. Here's some information about it -

History: World Vegetarian Day is observed annually around the planet on October 1. It is a day of celebration established by the North American Vegetarian Society (NAVS) in 1977 and endorsed by the International Vegetarian Union in 1978, "To promote the joy, compassion and life-enhancing possibilities of Vegetarianism." It brings awareness to the ethical, environmental, health & humanitarian benefits of a vegetarian lifestyle.

World Vegetarian Day initiates the month of October as Vegetarian Awareness Month, which ends with November 1,World Vegan Day, as the end of that month of celebration. Vegetarian Awareness Month has been known variously as "Reverence for Life" month, "Month of Vegetarian Food", and more.

Significance: Founded in 1974, NAVS is a US-based non-profit tax-exempt educational institution. NAVS seeks to focus on two objectives with the help of events such as World Vegetarian Day.

Their first purpose is to provide a support network for members, related groups and vegetarians in general. The second is to inform the general public about how vegetarianism benefits them, other animals, and the planet as a whole.

Benefits of having a vegetarian diet:

  • Good for heart health. Vegetarians may be up to one-third less likely to die or be hospitalized for heart disease,
  • Reduces cancer risk,
  • Prevents type 2 diabetes,
  • Lowers blood pressure,
  • Decreases asthma symptoms,
  • Promotes bone health and many more

  1. India,
  2. Sri Lanka,
  3. Italy,
  4. Lebanon,
  5. Indonesia,
  6. Taiwan and
  7. United Kingdom (UK).

I have also one question for ya'll: Is there any veg dish that you love the most? This one is specially for the Non-veg ones. 😁
