Which is best for a long, healthy life: a strict vegetarian or mixed diet?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mixed: You can have a healthy mixed diet, to focus on only one group of food is not enough to meet all the requirements for our body. One needs proteins, veggies, carbs , good fats and fruits to work better.
