Vegetarianism has been advocated by many diverse people like philosophers Plato, Nietzsche, political leaders like Benjamin Franklin, Mahatma Gandhi, and Pop icon Paul McCartney. Besides Ayurveda’s the ancient treatises recommended vegetarian diet to prolong your life thousands of years ago. It suggests that in order to maintain peaceful happy life with disciplined thoughts vegetarian diet is highly recommended because eating meat promotes emotions of hatred, jealousy, anger and animosity in a human mind. Modern science has also demonstrated remarkable health benefits of a vegetarian diet.
Vegetarians avoid the animal fat linked to cancer and get abundant fiber, vitamins, and phytochemicals that help to prevent cancer. Vegetables and fruits and grains provide low fat and high fiber that reduces cholesterol levels and with stress management and exercise one could reverse arthrosclerosis or hardening of arteries.

Indian cuisine is famous world over and enjoys a great reputation of being very unique and healthy. With charm of its own it has such a great variety of tastes, colors and aroma that those who taste it once sometimes find other foods somewhat tasteless. Sampling of Indian food is an unforgettable experience. The delicious meat curries and beautiful Pilafs will haunt one’s memory forever and the mere mention of Gulabjamans, Samosas, and Kabobs will make the mouth water. Along with the pleasures comes the hidden dividend of health benefits. Its Dhals (lentil preparations) are full of digestible proteins.

India is one of the most diverse countries with many religions and races living together for centuries. It has 16 prominent provinces with their own official languages and their own cuisines.
