A vegetarian diet is bad for the brain

Researchers from Oxford University of Great argue that the continued refusal of eating meat can be dangerous to human health, writes Manager News .

Scientists have conducted long-term studies that show that eating only foods plant-based can lead to a decrease in brain mass that is dangerous to human health.

The fact is that the meat contains 8 essential amino acids and proteins, which can not be replaced entirely by vegetable. Scientists note that for normal functioning, the body needs meat, fish, milk. Otherwise, the body will suffer from a deficiency of these amino acids and proteins and vitamin B12 deficiency.

Researchers from the University of California in the US also claim to be able to demonstrate the benefits of eating meat, disproving the myth that it is harmful. The reason for this lies in the specific protein that is found in meat and needed by the body for normal development and functioning. The absence of this protein leads to a number of diseases including metabolic disorders and in the secretion of hormones which are responsible for brain activity.

The researchers note that meat products may even increase longevity.
