Not eating meat has many benefits

Honolulu Star-Adviser

Thank you for publishing Michael Tsai's column about Eva Uran ("Vegetarian promotes value of embracing simple lifestyle," Star-Advertiser, July 26).

Ms. Uran's life teaches us what more Americans discover each day: Choosing plant-based foods reduces animal suffering, is better for the environment and is generally more healthful. And thanks to a growing number of vegetarian and vegan options in restaurants and grocery stores, it's easier than ever to leave meat, dairy, and eggs off our plates.
