Liz 麗滋邀大家一起來吃素。Liz invites everyone to be vegetarian.
November 25 is the International Vegetarian Day, which originated from India in 1986; it was also called "World Meatless Day". It gradually developed into a worldwide festival. On that day, many slaughterhouses around the world would stop slaughtering, canteens, hospitals and prisons, etc., will provide vegan food. Let's eat more vegetables instead of meat on this vegetarian day, so that we can protect our environment and keep our healthy.
11月25日是國際素食日，是一個自1986年開始來源於印度的節日；原稱“世界無肉日”。漸漸發展為一個世界性節日。 11月25日這一天世界各地許多屠房停宰、飯堂醫院監獄等會供應全素食品。讓我們在這個素食日里，不吃肉，多吃素。保護自己的健康，也保護我們的環境。
While some people can't imagine a day without meat, others insist that a vegetarian is the best way to enjoy food and stay healthy. If you're still on the fence about diving into earth and animal-friendly menus, consider the benefits of adopting the lifestyle before making the final decision. Here’s a look at just ten benefits of being a vegetarian:
有些人很難想像一天不吃肉會是什麼樣子，而另一些人則堅持認為吃素是享受食物、保持健康的最佳方法。如果你還在猶豫要不要一頭扎進一個更有益於保護地球和動物的菜單的話，那就在做決定前想想吃素的好處。以下十條都是吃素可以帶來的益處：
1. lower risk of cancer. with a diet rich in antioxidants, phytochemical, and vitamins, vegetarians naturally lower their risk of cancer and other diseases. meat eaters, especially those that indulge in fatty meats are at a much higher risk of cancer.
1.降低患癌症的風險。素食中含有大量的抗氧化成分、植物營養素和維生素，這些都能幫助素食主義者降低罹患癌症和其他疾病的風險。另一方面，喜歡吃肉的人，尤其是那些喜歡吃肥肉的人，患上癌症的機率則要更高。
2. prevention of type 2 diabetes. type 2 diabetes is becoming more common with the rise of obesity around the world, and vegetarian diets may even can prevent it by including complex carbs and fiber that help the body manage insulin more efficiently.
2.預防ii型糖尿病。隨著世界範圍內肥胖者的增多，ii型糖尿病也越來越普遍了。素食中包含多種碳水化合物和纖維能夠幫助身體更有效地分泌胰島素，從而預防ii型糖尿病。
3. healthy skin. diets rich in water-based and plant foods are a rich source of antioxidants and vitamins-ideal for healthier skin every season.
3.擁有健康的肌膚。蔬菜中含有大量水分，是抗氧化成分和維生素的豐富來源，這對於時刻擁有更健康的肌膚來說是非常理想的選擇。
4. low or no saturated fat. vegetarian menus typicall use all-natural oils and cooking methods to enhance flavor. this is free of unhealthy saturated fat which can lead to a variety of heart problems and cardiovascular disease.
4.不含有或含有少量飽和脂肪。素食的烹飪一般採用植物油來提升食物的風味。這就避免了攝入不健康的飽和脂肪。飽和脂肪會引起各種心臟和心血管疾病。
5. hormone-free eating. fruits, vegetables, and soy products are never injected with growth hormones and other chemicals that may harm the human body.
5.避免吃到激素。水果、蔬菜和豆類不會被注射那些影響人體健康的生長激素和其他化學物質。
6. increased energy. with the body spending less time digesting animal protein, an energy boost is a nice side effect.
6.提升能量。吃素的話，身體就不需要花更多的時間來消化動物的蛋白質，從而讓人精力更充沛。這是吃素帶來的額外好處。
7. lower blood pressure. vegan and vegetarian diets can be naturally low in fat and sodium, helping reduce blood pressure and improve circulation instead.
7.降低血壓。素食食譜中的脂肪和鈉的含量都較低，有利於降低血壓，加速血液循環。
