4.  Becoming a vegetarian is not always the best diet for everyone.  In order to be a healthy vegetarian you have to substitute your meats correctly.  Meat contains protein that our body needs, so becoming a vegetarian is not the best idea.  Although, you can get protein from whole grains, beans, lentils, legumes, soy products, nuts, seeds, and protein supplements.  They are low in protein so you still need the protein that meat contains.
