First, it leads to the lack of protein in the human body
Although some plants also contain a lot of protein, such as high-protein plants such as soybeans, compared with the protein needed by the human body, the protein contained in plants is far from enough, and the protein contained in plants is more difficult for the human body to absorb and digest than the animal protein.
Second, it causes the human body to lack some vitamins.
If you don't eat meat for a long time, you can't get enough fat-soluble vitamins. Fat-soluble vitamins refer to vitamins that are not easily soluble in water, but generally soluble in animal oil, such as vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, etc. The lack of these vitamins will cause the decline of human immunity, lead to dry and rough skin, and make people prone to osteoporosis and other diseases. Therefore, not eating meat for a long time is a kind of harm to the body, which may even lead to human diseases and threaten people's health and safety.
Third, lead to the lack of trace elements in the human body
Meat also contains many essential trace elements, such as iron, zinc, calcium, magnesium, etc. Although plants also contain a certain amount of trace elements, they are far less than meat. If you don't eat meat for a long time, it will lead to the lack of these trace elements, and plants contain oxalic acid and other substances, which will hinder the absorption of iron and other elements, thus causing iron deficiency anemia, osteoporosis and other problems, threatening human health.
Fourth, hormone secretion disorder
Hormone secretion in the human body is inseparable from the raw material of fat. If you don't eat meat for a long time, you will consume too little fat, which will lead to insufficient raw materials for hormone secretion, thus affecting the secretion of female estrogen, causing symptoms such as irregular menstruation and infertility, and even accelerating human aging.
Five, make people prone to stones.
People who don't eat meat for a long time but only eat vegetarian food are extremely prone to stones, because oxalic acid contained in plants will combine with calcium in the human body, thus producing stones; At the same time, the lack of vitamin A and vitamin E is also one of the reasons for getting stones easily.
It can be seen that long-term non-eating meat is very harmful to human body, especially for children and lactating women. A reasonable diet structure is the correct living habit. Only by combining vegetarian food with meat can we supplement all the substances needed by the whole human body and make people have a healthy body.
