Considering A Diet Change
11:38:00 AMI have grown up most of my life as a omnivore, meaning like most Americans, I eat meat (red meat, poultry, etc.) and vegetables/fruits. However, I've recently been considering a Pescetarian diet, eliminating pork, red meat, and poultry from my diet and only eating fish and veggies. I don't eat that much meat as it is, and seafood dishes are my favorite.
Seafood Linguine [yummm!]
Some of the benefits of a pescetarian diet include:
- Seafood is low in saturated fat, which causes high cholesterol.
- Fish is a rich source of Omega-3 Fatty acids.
- Over a long period of time, eliminating other meats and only eating fish can save you money.
This is a decision I have to consider a little more before I ultimately decide. I love, love my fruits and vegetables and seafood...but the ocasional steak or chicken dish always leaves me satisfied!
What's a girl to do?
How do you feel about the vegetarian vs. omnivore vs. pescetarian diet? Any Pros or Cons?
