I became a vegetarian because I want to have healthier food. Going vegetarian makes me calmer and happier. I always share with people about the benefits of vegetarianism. Now, I'm happy to have a vegetarian family.

17 years ago, I had the rare opportunity to observe a medical autopsy class, and it struck me really hard that living creatures have flesh and blood, just like humans. After that, I decided to become a full-fledged vegetarian.

I decided to become vegetarian as I could no longer reconcile mankind’s fallacious assignment of sentient-beings to be either worthy of our care and compassion or for slaughter as food.

I became a vegetarian when I attended the 2011 TIMA convention in Taiwan. I no longer crave for meat because it aches me seeing chickens displayed in rows at chicken rice stalls. Always reflect how I would feel if I were one of them.

It is easy to replenish the nutrient gap of plant-based diet, it is difficult to excrete the toxin of meat-based diet. The higher your food-chain hierarchy, the more toxin will bio-accumulate in our body. Think of those toxins, go meatless.

Diet change is a big deal and a challenge. Becoming a vegetarian has helped me see and feel things from a different perspective. I have also learned to control my desire, be more compassionate and grateful and also be more giving.

Many are surprised I am Christian AND vegetarian. My reasons, other than for health, are spiritual and ethical, including a deep concern for God's creatures! Plus saving Mother Earth!
