Vegetarians save the lives of more than 100 animals per year.

 Vegetarians are on average 10 to 20 pounds lighter than meat-eaters.

Many vegetarians report that after cutting meat out of their diets, they feel better, have clearer skin, and have more energy.

World Vegetarian Week, the annual celebration of meat-free meals, is rapidly approaching (May 19 to 25). You can celebrate by taking the Pledge to Be Veg for Seven Days—the beginning to a healthier and happier you!
