Why do people become vegan?

[Calibee]

I believe some people choose to be Vegan for healthier options. Vegetables is a good source of vitamins and minerals and it keeps your body fit and away from diseases. I think being a Vegan is choosing to have a healthier lifestyle.

Or maybe others became vegetarians because their doctor advised them to do become one.  For a healthy life.  And to prevent other diseases that may occur if they eat meat.

Yeah, I am also wondering why people call the non-meat eaters, vegan. Don't you guys know that frutarians do exist too?

It is not healthier to be vegan than to be on a paleo diet. It is just about not hurting animals.

In Europe we disgust the meat eaters. So we produce less and less, we destroy agriculture. BUT we are offered treaties of free trade with the North American part with their meats with hormones.

People become vegan I think because they are health conscious. But for me, my principle in diet is eat whatever you want but in moderation. It will be very torturous fornyour body to not eat what you want. So instead of torturing yourself with strict diet why not go for an alternative where you can still enjoy foods you like and yet control it.

many to reduce animal suffering

[Na xter]

Generally because they love animals and they don't want them to suffer. Most of us if we had for pet a pig, cow and animals we eat would be different because we would had more compassion for them

I think that now people have become very inactive and they do not need as much energy as physically active people get from meat and fish. I do not see anything wrong with this, but I like meat.

I have had countless of researches, some involves reading articles from different websites and gathering hard to find books about vegetarian behavior. And, the main reason as to why they do not eat meat is because of their sympathy to animals. Before all this, I thought the reason would be because of healthy living and the like but this reason is for those who are not truly pure blooded vegetarians. After all, our gene matrix overwhelms all reason there is.   

[Ursuka]

Even though eating less or no meat is very healthy, becoming vegan is more a religion actually.

[longwintershere]

I'm vegan and the reason is purely ethical, I don't think animals should be treated the way they're. Plus it's also healthier not to eat animal products, so it's utter nonsense the whole meat industry.

People became vegan because they chose to have a healthier lifestyle.

Just wondering, why do people become vegan. Is this because of health, ethics or something else?

many people choose the first vegan may be for health reasons, as we know that the content of the vegetables is very good for the body and very easy absorption, the second to maintain ideal body weight, because vegetables contain lots of fiber that makes the body not hungry easily , other reasons may be because of a belief or religion they believe in.

[nachobench]

To live a healthy lifestyle, health scare and even to age slower.
Vegans are sensitive to the use of animals for any purpose, the ethical side of their philosophy.
Makes sense to me, I respect that.

[ddhga]

Because of this healthier, diet is more balanced

[hghcoin]

Maybe they think eating meat is sin,and think that the animal is pitiful.
