Less meat 'means a longer life'

Eating little or no meat can help people live longer, researchers have found.
Their lives are "significantly longer" than the general population, researchers have found, according to German scientists.

It has been suggested that eating a balanced vegetarian diet could reduce the risk of developing certain cancers and heart disease, cut cholesterol levels and the chances of suffering from kidney and gall stones, diet-related diabetes and high blood pressure.
