Vegetarians are Happier And Less Stressed than Meat Eaters. A new study has revealed that vegetarians can be happier and fewer stressed than their meat-loving counterparts.

Meat eaters' diets contain high doses of arachidonic acid (AA), a sort of omega-3 acid that has been reported in previous studies as effecting mood.

In this recent study, lined within the Huffington Post, thirty-nine frequent meat-eaters were placed into one among 3 food teams - either eating meat, fish and poultry or eating simply fish or following a strictly vegetarian diet. They were then monitored over a 2 week amount.

Those who ate meat reported no modification in their moods however those that followed the vegetarian diets said they felt less stressed and happier.

Results showed that fatty acid levels within the management cluster remained identical compared to "negligible amounts" within the vegetarian cluster and a large increase (95 to a hundred percent) of Omega-6 levels within the cluster eating fish.

Eating fish usually equals a lot of Omega-3 fatty acids like eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) that are said to combat AA and its harmful facet effects however a previous study (along with this most up-to-date one) show that despite the upper levels of EPA and DHA, omnivores moods were said to be considerably worse.

Plants like cauliflower and chia seeds have a decent quantity of Omega-3 fatty acids (ALA) and are simple to include into your daily meals.
