It's all about myths that are perpetuated by our society (and maybe the meat industry)??? My ancestry is from western India where people have lived for probably close to a thousand of years without meat. All you need are legumes, nuts, amino acids as in rice, dairy products, nuts and all those other fruits and veggies. Most Americans get too much protein from what I understand. As long as you like ethnic food, there are tons of vegetarian options.
My bloodwork is fine with all substances in the normal range. The fact that I do eat eggs may help here. For more proof that one can live a healthy life as a vegetarian, my great great grandma lived to be close to 100, her daughter to the mid 90's, and my grandpa could walk on his hands at age 60! All of them (were) are lifelong lactovegans, (didn't even eat eggs).
Just remember, nobody ever got sick or fat from eating too many fruits and vegetables.
