Growth among vegetarians in Britain, research from Oxford University

According to research from Oxford University, the vegetarian class in Britain has gone from 2 per cent to 5 per cent over the past decade. The National Food Strategy aims to reduce red meat sales in the UK by 30 per cent by 2030. Meat consumption has also increased among people born after 1999. People are now giving preference to healthy foods over delicious foods. Around 20 per cent of people in Britain have removed the nonveg dish in a decade. Cancer, type 2 diabetes, and growing heart disease are the main causes.

According to research from the University of Oxford, people have reduced or reduced their intake of meat for good health. Sales of red meat have dropped significantly. But the tendency of people to eat chicken and fish has increased. This change in the diet of the common man could lead to a reduction in the problem of carbon emissions from the environment. This is because red meat emits large amounts of carbon for animal husbandry. This change in catering will also indirectly benefit the environment.
According to research from the University of Oxford, per capita consumption in the UK during 2008-09 was 103 grams of red meat per day. In 2018-19, the rate was recorded at 23 grams per person per day. Poultry sales grew by 3.2 per cent. The University of Oxford has reported a change in eating habits from this experiment. But for a healthier lifestyle, people will need more comprehensive efforts, researchers suggest. An article published in the Lancet Platonary Health notes that interest in eating meat has declined in the high-income developed countries over the past decade. But meat consumption has increased in the rest of the world.
