Diet

Increasingly, people are adopting a vegetarian diet or reducing their meat consumption.
Vegetarianism has become a trend, attracting especially the young generation. Between thirty and forty percent of meals at universities in Germany and Switzerland are vegetarian. While 30 to 40 years ago only a few people knew the meaning “vegetarianism”, today nearly every child knows the word.

Many studies have proved that a vegetarian lifestyle is healthier and, contrary to what the meat and dairy industries claim, it is now known that not only is it possible to live without animal protein, it is even advisable.
