Details
Flexitarians are also known as flexible vegetarians, casual vegetarians or vegivores. Research shows that eating less meat and more fiber can reduce the risk of mortality, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and certain kinds of cancer like colon cancer. Take one step at a time and reduce the intake of meat or seafood to 1 time a day and stick with vegetarian dishes for the remaining meals.
